A penny a week, collected at the door. Call on five hundred homes a week and keep every policy paid.
Industrial assurance is life cover sold for pennies a week, mostly to pay for a decent funeral, and collected at the door by the agent every Friday. The agent lives on a commission on what he collects, and his round, called a book, can be bought and sold. The work is walking, writing and knowing when a family is in trouble, because a lapsed policy is lost commission.
