An active contingent of agents look
after the presentation of the claims of
the Howick Mutual throughout its
constituency and not a few are emin-
ently succosstul. The past year's
Auditors were A. A. Graham and T.
G. Shearer. Business is done along
business lines and the Standard Bank
of Canada and the Bank of Hamilton
are called into service in caring for and
handling the funds, Barrister Sinclair
of Brussels, is the Company's Solicitor.
They have no liabilities.
During the past year a wise and
necessary move was made in the
matter of securing proper safe -guard
ing of valuable papers and documents
on file and at the same time secure
permanent head quarters. A neat
brick building 24 x 3o feet was erected
at Wroxeter with good cement base-
ment, furnace and vault. &c, and with
necessary furniture did not cost $1500.
All who have been through the new
premises pronounce it complete for the
purpose desired and ample facilities
are now afforded the office staff, direct
ors or policy bolders. The contract
was well carried out and good work
done at close figures. The volume of
bnsiness of the Howick Mutual deman-
ded the attention now possessed of
modern office quarters.
The By-laws of the Co. are stringent
and closely adhered. to. The risks
are carefully investigated by com-
petent agents and submitted to
the Directors. who also ro care.
fully over every detail. A visit
to one ot their monthly meetings at
Gorrie will assure one of the business
manner in which they are conducted.
There is no haphazard way of passing
lightly
ever matters of importance,
nor is there adisposition to slight
trifles, but everydetail is gonee into
and digested thoughtfully, thus
ensur-
tog the policy holders of a conscientious
and proper management of affairs
which concern them.
The hooks of the Company are ex-
amined annually by the Government
Inspector and are carefuly audited
each year. and every care is taken to
safeguard the interests of the policy
holders,
One of the chief elements of expense
in most companies is the maintenance
of the management. but in the Howick
Mutual Fire Insurance Company the
salaries paid are so nominal that it
hardly pays the Directors for the time
devoted to looking after its interests.
