They went home carrying the short end-of a 3-1 score and several broken hockey sticks. The ice was soft and the weather mild. In consequence of this and the wet slippery roads the crowd was thin, The game opened with a splash and the was carried to the Brooklin en- trenchments and stayed there for ap- proximately five minutes, when Cecil Jeffrey smashed the puck clear of the eneral melee and drilled it into the oklin net. This stirred the Brook- tional spirit and their left wing Joose and though carried to the by Brock, managed to loose a which rose from the slush and tered the Port net at an awkward gle. Somerville immediately placed ort on top when he smashed a per- ect shot from the blue line. Toward e end of the first period R. Harris owed his way to the south end of the nk and found himself and the puck hguarded in front of the Brooklin t door from which position he scored. The second period went scoreless, both teams laboring to score on the heavy ice.

Figures been published showing that the Co ny wrote during the year over $562 50,000 of new business which bringA the assurance in force to $386,669,481 or no-less than $32,600,000 in excess of the amount in force at the end of 1926. Assets increased by $8,600,000. Dividends paid poliey-holders were over $3,646,000, which represents an increase of more than $660,000 over the previous year. The surplus earnings of the company amounted to $4,601,387, which is $360,000 more than 1926. These figures show a relation to assets of $50.45 Jer $1000, This means much to policy- olders because profits belongs to them. Progress was made in every depart- ment of the company's, business. The assets of the Mutual Life--mostly gilt edged government and municipal se- curities have grown to a total of $89, 238,843. These assets are all Can- adian' and represent investments in every province. They give policy- holders the added satisfaction of knowing that their funds are being used 0 op their own country. This cor 7 has surplus funds and investment freserves amounting to more than $11,829,000, so that con- tinued liberal dividend distributions are assured. It will be gratifying to Mutual policyholders to note that the cost ratio of securing new members for the Mutual family and administrating the company's affairs declines as the membership grows. The ration for 1927 was only 14.44%, as compared to 16.11% in 1926 and 15.28% in 1925. On the other hand, the revenue from investments held up remarkably well, considering the steadily declining in- terest rates which marked the past year. The average rate earned on Mutual investments in 1926 was 6.48% while in 1927, despite the general de- cline, the Mutual's investments yield- ed 6.46%.
