` EXPENSE RATIO AND ‘INTEREST RATE _
l The ratio of expense to total income has again fallen while the rate
of interest earned has risen, both facts being favorable to the payment __
' of liberal dividends. _
IIIGII QUALITY Ol-` Tllli BUSINESS
During the year there has been a remarkable decrease in the number
' of policies lapsed and surrendered, showing the increased value placed
upon life insurance, and the conspicuous persistency of our business.
NET INCREASE IN BUSINESS
The increase in business in force after allowing for all terminations was
. 55% of the new business written»»a notable record-bringing the business ~\\
now in force up to nearly $110,000,000.
TIIE SURPLUS EARNED
It is a subject for congratulation that in spite of the extra death losses _
due to the war the surplus earnings were so satisfactory that we are able
to continue the payment of dividends to policyholders on the generous
scale they have enjoyed heretofore.
A glance at the following statement will show how rapid yet substantial
