Notice to Shareholders Thursday, Feb. 17th ari0O, ATTENTION HOUSEHOLDERS Triplex Goid Mines Limited | By Order of THE BOARD OF HEALTH GARROW, ANNUAL STATEMENT OF SUN LIFE ASSURANGE GO. An Outstanding Report. Sun Life Eclipsing Even Its Own Noteâ€" worthy Records. The Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada continues to eclipse its own transcendent records. _ At the annual meeting for 1927 which has just been held, President T. B. Macauâ€" lay was able to report that the total business paid for in 1926 amounted to $265,889,546, double that of 1924â€" only two years ago. The assurances in forees now exceed one and a quarâ€" ter billions of dollars. The Sun Life has become much more than our greatest Canadian company. It is one of the leading Life Insurance companies of the world. Its growth is equally arrestâ€" ing whether compared ‘with its own reeord or with the totals of insurance on this continent. The increaes of its business at risk in 1926 is greater than the entire business earried by the Sun Life at the outbreak of the war. Tt has now more business in foree than the total life assurance in force in all Canada, with all comâ€" panies, Canadian and foreign, when war was declared. _ Latest reports indicated that the general increase in life insurance secured during 1926 in the United States and Canada is six per cent. in excess of 1925. The Sun Life‘s increase for the year is 37\ per cent. Fully keeping step with this great access of business, the assets of the THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO. _â€"â€"â€"-â€"-â€"-â€"â€"-â€"â€"-â€"-â€" The Company‘s successful investâ€" ment policy is reflected in an analysis of its securities. Government valuaâ€" tors appraise a further increase in the excess value of the Company‘s securities pver cost, of nearly $7, 000,000. A profit of $1,700,000 has been realized by the redemption or sale of municipal debentures and other holdings which had risen to high premiums. The rate earned on the mean invested assets for the year rose to the phenomenal figure of 6.69 per cent., this being contributed to by dividend increases, bonuses and other privileges granted on the Company‘s holdings. t "t Company have increased during the past twelve months by $42,195,000, swelling the total to $345,251,000. The Company‘s assets have multiplâ€" ed five times in the last twelve years. From the total surplus earned durâ€" ing the year, $20,457,077, the Comâ€" pany has made large prudent approâ€" priations. After making these. alloâ€" cations, which add substantially to the unassailable security of the Comâ€" pany, an addition of $5,715,564 has been added to undivided profits, bringâ€" ing the total surplus over all liahiliâ€" ties, contingency accounts and capital stock to $34,011,565. Perhaps, however, the features of the report of outstanding interest to the public are those relating particuâ€" larly to benefits to policyholders. During the year profits amounting to $9,235,526 were paid or allotted to policyholders, this amount being eight times in excess of the amount paid out ten years ago. For six years past increases in profits to policyholders have been announced, resulting in a doubling of the profits seale during that period. For the seventh succesâ€" sive time, a~ further increase is anâ€" nounced. The great total of $38,576,â€" 453 has been paid out during the year in respect of death claims, matured egdowments, etc., bringing the total so paid since organization to $257,â€" 816,174. The high rate of interest earned enâ€" ables the Company to distribute proâ€" fits on the assumption of 5 per cent. per annum being earned on the Reâ€" serves. The same rate of interest is being allotted to beneficiaries on the proceeds of matured endowments and death claims left with the Company. In this way again, policyholders are participating in the great prosperity of the Company. Not the least gratifying portion of the report is the fine showing of busiâ€" ness written within the Dominion. Here again a new record is establishâ€" ed for Canada in a massive aggregate of $102,000,000 of paid assurances. The Sun Life Company is as old as the Dominion. â€" But it has greater claims to Canadian pride than that. It is toâ€"day one of the foremost of the small group of great Canadian financial institutions which are makâ€" ing Canada famous. "‘The Mattagami Pulp /and\Paper Co., Limited, officially came to an end yesterday when all parties interested appeared before Charles Garrow, K. C..C., at Osgoode Hall and a sum reâ€" presenting $7,188,080 was handed over in bonds. The assets of the Matâ€" tagami Co. were purchased some time ago by I. W. Kuillam, of the Royal Securities Corporation for $7,250,000, and a few days later he sold these to the Abitibi Fiber Co., Limited, a subâ€" sidiary of the Abitibi Pulp and Paper Co., Limited.‘‘ ANOTER FINAL END FOR MATTAGAMI PULP PAPER said :â€" CHANGE POSSIBLE IN COCHRANE JUDGESHIP. After quoting an editorial reference to the matter in La Patrie, of Montâ€" real, The Sudbury Star last week says :â€" KECXOTHRA x" a +k nawa ~_*+iman" TLA "~ira c nnna;r]- ‘‘While at one time it was considâ€" ered that the appointment of G.

He exâ€" plained that through the Gospel he became converted. â€" Thinking over his misdeeds, the recollection of lhus defrauding the railways out of a slight amount of money preyed upon his conscience. Yesterday he turned into the C.P.R. the difference in the fare, which amounted to $1.25, and at the same time asked for special rates on account of the evangelistic work in which lie is now engaged."‘‘ ‘The efficiency of the Bible in reâ€" forming human character was strickâ€" ingly demonstrated at the head office The Toronto Globe on day last LEGLIE WALKER‘S RINK WINS THE TIMMINS§ CGUP Big Crowd of Curlers Watch with Breathless Interest the Final Stages of Unusu Close Competition > There was great excitement at the Timmins Curling Rink over the weekâ€" end, when the finals in the Timmins Cup competition were played. _ The semiâ€"finals in this competition had been played some weeks ago, and the finals were delayed through the big bonspiel of the Northern Ontario Curling Association at Haileybury. Abouth seventyâ€"five spectators witâ€" nessed one of the hardest fought curlâ€" ing matches ever played in Timmins when the rink skipped by Leslie Walâ€" ker won over Don. Sutherland by but one point. ‘The final count was 13 to 12. Every member of both rinks was curling his best, and it was a treat to the spectators to see the stones drawâ€" ing through a port, to take out a counter on the button, or to see a stono come down, draw in and lay shot, just where the skip or viceâ€"skip wanted it placed. The winning rink consisted of Lesâ€" lie Walker, skip;, Walter Eeclestone, viceâ€"skip; (George Brady, second; Jack Wray, lead. The losing rink consisted of Don. Sutherland, skip; John Hunt, viceâ€"skip; Alf. Phillips, the regular lead, playing second, and Joe Amm leading. The regular, seâ€" cond, Jack Meyers, was unable to be presert. _ Mr. Walker‘s win is a popular one, and later he received the congraltulations of all the memâ€" bers who witnessed the game, while Mr. Sutherland was congratulated ion the fine game qput up by both himself and rink. The battle to decide the Timmins Cup was about as good a curling exhibition one would wish to see, DEATH OF THE LATE CAPT. WILLIAM HAMILTON WYLIE A special despatch in The Toronto (Hlobe last week, dated from Almonte, Ontario, Feb. 8th, says:â€"‘*The funerâ€" al of the late Capt,. William Hamilâ€" ton Wylie of the Hollinger Mining Co. took place from the residence of his brotherâ€"inâ€"law, C. B. Dawson, Alâ€" monte, on Feb. 6. He was the son of the late Captain W. H. Wylie of St. Catharines. When the war broke out he resigned his position with the Hollinger Company, to enlist with the Engineers, and fought through the greater part of the war. He was an outstanding athlete of the allâ€"round type, and enjoyed high esteem, on the wthletic field, because of his uniform good nature and high ideals, which he always displayed in the realm of sport. In 1919 he was married to Miss Blanch Murie!l MaeNeil of Toâ€" ronto, who, with three small children. survive him. In addition, he leaves to mourn his loss, his mother and four sisters."‘ w ACTIVITY STILL ON IN NORTHERN COAL PIELDS Exploration and development work is still being earried on in the prosâ€" pective coal area north of Cochrane. There has been considerable money spent and still more will be expendâ€" ed, according to reports from Cochâ€" rane.. One of the hbig drawbacks to the development of the coal area is the difficulty of transportation. _ In some cases it would appear as if the transportation of equipment and supâ€" plies was so costly as to leave little money to spend on actual developâ€" ment work. In any event the heavy cost of transportation and the time and effort so consumed do mean so much less that can be expended for development. _ It certainly appears that the coal field has been held back by the _ transportation _ problem. However, even the transportation difficulty has not entirely discouraged those working on the coal claims. There is still activity in progress, and if ~ever people deserved to suceed it is these same people who hold the coal north of Cochrane. One of the several activities in the arca is indiâ€" cated by the following paragraph last week in The Cochrane News:â€"*‘Mr. A, W. Golding returned from Toronto Thursday last. Mr. Golding has been instructed to take out some of the equipment from Mileage 68 and ship it to Smoky Falls via Kapuskasing for the Bartram interests."
