The Ivlnncrs of the respective events will go an to the provincial meet to be he1d in Charlottetown in the near lu- ture, and it is hoped that the local boys nnd girls will give as goal. a showing as they have done 1n the past. ‘ Georgetown Ami Vicinity Mr. Neil Wright was a recent business visitor to Charlottetown Mr. Winnie MacKinnon of Mel- roso visited Georgetown on Friday. m-w Mr. Joseph Allen, accompanied by his nie-:e, Mrs. Claud Phalr of Seal River, were visitors w Georgetown on Friday.

Devlin, vice-president and gen oral manager, reported that 1947 was the most successful year in the history of the company. New business written in 1947 was $117.- 072572. a gain of $10,240,602 over 1911B. Insurance ‘in force increas- ed by_$8’l,645,965 to a total a.‘ $788,149,370. and assets and pol- icy reserves increased to $217,636. 8&3 and $176,968,430 respectively. Mr. Macdonald reported that Confederation Life earned 3.68% on its invested assets. a. decrease of .0141. compared with 1946. “This lovl lilterest return re- flects the downward trend in in- terest rates for the last. 12 years," he said. "This trend may now have been halted, but the low rates still pose a serious problem to lllSlll~ ance companies and prospective pollrymvners, bwause they tend to promote a rising cost of Jvimz and of life insurance. "While Confederation Life does not propose to make an ove.ail increase in premium rates in Cau- ada and Newfoundland this year, we have thought it prudent to strengthen our reserves 1n order to give added protection to our poi- loyowners.
