In every way, the growth of the busiâ€" ness has been more than satisfactory. By economy in administration, high interest rate on invested assets, and the remarkable low mortality, there was an exceptionally high surplus earned for the policyholders. â€" The unbroken success of the Mutual Life during the past half a century and more proves the soundness and virtue of the ‘‘mutual"‘ idea when rightly applied and carried through. By practically half a million dolâ€" lars, the previous high record of surâ€" plus earnings was surpassed, the 1924 total being $3,500,258. An increased. distribution was made to policyholdâ€" ers of $579,062.33 more than was paid out in 1923. A total of $2,689,007.99 was paid out in dividends in 1924â€"a return to the policyholders of approxâ€" imately 25% of the total premiums received by the Company. As pointed out by the General Manager in his address, during the lifetime of The Mutual Life of C:m-’ ada, $15,963,134.22 has â€"been paid in dividends to policyholders, and, of this amount, $12,870,044.28 was disâ€" tributed during the last 10 years. It is clearly evident from these figures| that the aim of the cnmpunyâ€"-â€"to, furnish maximumâ€" protection a VERY PLEASING ANNUAL STATEMENT OF MUTUAL LIFE The dancing part of the programme was thoroughly enjoyed, a Balloon Dance, and a Spot Waltz being exâ€" tremely popular both for which prizes were awarded to the lucky winners. Mr. Cunliffe‘s Orchestra improves with age, like good Scotch whiskey and his playing kept the dancers in the best of humour. Mr. Uttley, the President of the Club, reminding his members that next Saturday is the Election of Officers and Committee the business may be over as soon as for the coming year, requests a full attendance of Members early, so that possible, when the rest of the evenâ€" ing can be given up to the social side. Next Saturday at 8.00 o‘celock all â€" Lancashire people â€"and their friends will be welceome. 1j After a few danee numbers, Mr. J Ormstron sang a Ballad with a good Tenor voice, and pleased his audience by a good rendering of a popular item; amongst other items a Monoloâ€" gue to his pipe was well rendered by Mr. Downey of the Caledonian Soâ€" ciety who was a visitor for the evenâ€" ing. Mr. Downey is a first class eloâ€" cutionist and held the interest of the audience throughout, receiving _ a round of well merited applause. The really outstanding event in a good musical programme was the Trio for Clarionettes and Spanish Guitar, played by the Pappone Brothers, who were also the guests of the club, the very fine selection they played was inâ€" sistently encored and both the initial number and resultant encore, were a treat to listen to. _ The Laneashire Club seem particularly lucky in choosing their artists, and on Social evenings seem to get exceptionally good talent. 1€ The Lancashire Club again broke another record for attendance on Saturday last at the Hollinger Reâ€" creation Hall, when.a large crowd enâ€" joyed a full musical and dancing proâ€" gramme, and ‘‘Bachelors‘ Night" will long be remembered by those who were present to enejoy such a good. time.

Home and home games will now be played to settle which team will go south. The game was played under protest, the Timmins manager claiming that Percy Fahey had not been agreed to by the Timmins Club. This however, is contrary to the facts as Archie Kerr, the Secretary of the Troquois Falls Commuission telephoned the S6â€" eretary of the Timmins Club and the Timmins Secretary agreed to Mr. "ahey, so that‘s that.

Scully, the Jjudge of play, was standing by the goal and saw it go in and overâ€"ruled the goal umpire but the referee would not listen and after some deâ€" lay the referee and judge of play settled matters with the umpire and the goal was allowed. This was folâ€"| lowed by the same play at the other end and caused another dispute, as nearly everyone in the ring could see that they were clear goals.
