Imperial Life Assurance ‘ Co’s. 50th Anniversary ‘

Meeting lnCharlottetown t

On the occasion of the Fiftieth Anniversary Year of The Imperial Life Assurance Company. a meet-

meetlng was attended by Mr. Paul H. Dubnt- of Tore-ate, Superintend- ent of Agencies. and Mr. R0. Shurly also of Tlronw, Assistant Secretary of the Company.

The meeting dealt with agency matters and Mr. Dubar complim- ented Mr. Mcinnis and his assoc- [iates upon the splendid results tsecured during the year i946, when an all-time record of business was attained both by the entire Comp- flliy and by the Prince Edward Is- land agency.

The meeting was followed in thc evening by a banquet at the Char- lottetown Hotel attended by the representatives and their wives and by members of the office staff. During the banquet Mr. Dubar de- scribed the complete,- welfare meas- ures taken by the Imperial Life for the benefit of its representatives. .tlieir wives and their dependents. He dealt with the progress of the Company throughout the past fifty years. when the yearly volume of business increased from year to year from one and one-half mlllicti in 1807 to sixty-one million in I946. and described conditions which salesmen had to XflCe in "19 early days of the Company.

Mr. Shurly spoke of the early Jotlnders cf the Company and of ‘the progress made throughout the years.

Reviews Achievements

,"In the ImDB-Tlal Life we hive loiked forward to this celebration of Our Jubilee Year for many months past." Mr. Shurley said. "Canada and the rest c; the woe-id. were Int the horse-and-buggy days when the Imperial Lllg was found- cd. An Act to incorporate the Com- pnny had bem passed by the Do- minion Parliament on the 23rd flay i of April, 1896. It was not until the ‘ following year, however. that the ‘Company's founding actually took‘ ‘place with thc appointment of staff and agents. thc opening of s, little upstairs office at thc corner‘

onto, and the writing of Imperial Life policy number one."

The new Company was not long in making itself felt among the lilo insurance companies in Can- ada. In i900. its third complete year. it wrote practically three mil- lion dollars. Two years later tt reached the 8.122.000 mark. the highest amount produced by any Canadian lifo insurance company ‘n that year being 54.640010

"Over the years to 161100‘. find coincident with the great develop- ment of Canada." said Mr. Slturiy. "the business of the Imperial Life ltas developed to the P0141’! "he" those early figures are unlmPfes- _s.lve. ‘Today as we look at the Im- pfllfll life we sec an cfiiflflllfliltm

hogs.

Mt‘. J. H. Myers. Hampton, said Prince Edward Island was htindr cupped inasmuch as tt. did not have the industrial resources eti- joyed by Ontario, Quebec. and some of the other Provinces. ifs main sources of revenue were its farming and fishing industries and tourist ttude. It would seem to be common sense, therefore. Mr. _My- crs said, if the people of Prince concentrated on making the quality of their farm and fish products as high as pos- lible. g _

Mr. H. W. Clay. settmr livestock fieidmun for the Dominion De- partment of Agt-iculttlrc. told the meeting that the Islands reputa- tion for quality hogs had extended across Canada and that there were more orders on hand from Alberta and Manitoba than the

.Islattd swine breeders could fill.

The refusal of the Island brecti- ers to indulge in breeding lads. and the fcredom from swine dis- ease were two factors which, Mr. Clay said. were largely responsible for the Island's present high fe- putation as a producer of fine bacon hogs.

Mr. Clay cautioned against the practice of some swinemen to inl- port their breeding stock. In such a practice» there was a great danger of bringing diseased hogs to the Province and thus destroy-|

ing the cnvinblc record which Is- ordemei one was med $10 and‘ ‘costs or 20 days and the othert

land hogs now possess.

He recommended that breeders of Yorkshire hogs should support thc advanced Registry policy. By, doi g so. Ml‘. Clay said. Island‘ hre tiers would be able to have a rcafiy market at a good price for all the livestock ihcy cared to c.\-‘

Outlook Bright

Tito outlook for the hog indus- try in i947 is very bright, MI‘.- lay said. Witcrcns therc were

shircs in the Province last year. there will be over one hundred] this yeJr. ‘

In concluding. Mr. Clay assured‘ thc brec-dcrs if they would givct thc Dominic-ti Deparinlcnt of Agti-l culture their full ro-opcrutititt. the Department would only irp too glad to support titcm in every way possible.

Titc Hon. W. F. A. Stewart. nro- vittclal Minister of Agriculture, cottgrniulatcd the brccdcrs on the lnrgc attendant-e and assured them‘ his Department was at nil times available to assist the hog breed- crs in any way it could.

Mr. Stewart referred to the iii-» ness of Mr. W. R. Shaw, provln-l vial deputy Minister of Agricul-l turc. who, Mi‘. Stewart said. limit not been in good health for several.

Gave Insular-ship

Among other things Mr. Bhuriy recalled that the Imperial Life hld pioneered when it adwlfll a 3 1'2 per cent interest basis in ‘he "l" ciliatiorv of its reserves; also W" it was one of the first to adopt the oven more conservative rate of 3 per cent.
