James !bills, of Getelph, moved the adoption of the report in an excellent address,
front which the toilowieg to a short extract:
Ata m ect•ng of this nature it is always a pleasure to be In a posttion,te congretulat,
those --interested, and on thla occasion T can de so most heartily.
We have really a most sal isfacteryStaten:KM to present to the bharoholdera and policy-
holders of the Company, n statement which will boar the cloanatin0pection. We can epoak
w;th moro.dellnitenemthanneer in the past in reg.trdtaour Investme0is and our stand-
ing , for we have more information at our disposal, furnished us la the splendid report of
oar consulting actuary. -There has boon progress alt along the line.
i comparison, of 1900 and 1899 is in the report, so I need not refer to that again, I
wculd, however, refer to ono other point: Tho question of our progress during a longer
period, 1801 to 1000, being that of the present management,
After elapse of elxyearn we and many points which are alike creditable to the man•
agement and gratifying to the persona most interested in the suceos0 of tb0 Company, the
ehareholdors and the policy -holders.
Tho following figures will illuetrete the vigorous growth of the Company:

I want also to refer to the character of our egrets and the exposeo ratio, both being
Important, item, in a. oonaern of thle kind,. Our steuritloswore never beforoln the splendid
condition they aro today, 1 doubt it a0y. Company can dhow such a record of ;sweated

In newcompaniesthe expense ratio lo alivaye large, Those expanses should gradually
decrease, and *um cord le as it should be in this reapoot - -
The ratio is about li per cont. lessthan it was two years ego. I think that le one of
the m,,,t satisfactory features Inour bustense, The ratio is decreasing rapidly.
I thank our manager, his Malt and the Held force for the results we are able to
report today, and Ido eo most sincerely, and Smust congratulate the policyholders and

remarked:
If wa look baok over two yearn, we find Chet the premium income for 1900 woe
almost 3150.000 more than for 15,40, or an Met ease et 31. per eont„whilo. our expenses for 1900,
as compared with 159S, only show an increase of about 08,005. or 11 per cent. The result "•
