When great things are required, of us we must be £aithtul in great things, and when small things aro required of us, we ,oust be faithful in small things. A small thing now is being asked of every, man in Canada between the ages cif 10 and 05. It is oihl'y to give, conscientiously and carefully, certain simple information required by the' National Service Board in order that the resources of the country -may be so organized as to be used most 'effectively in the pro- -setfo ,'n of the war.

Seeley &' West The Story Of 1916 THE business of the London Life Insurance Company showed continued remarkable progress in 1916. The new business written, entirely in Canada, was $2,000,000 greater than in the previous year ---a gain of 18 per cent. The increase in business in force was $3,000,000 greater than in the previous year ---making the total in force at 31st Decem- ber 11916, 20 per cent greater than at the end of the previous year. The following comparative statement shows the progress • for the past ten years: 1906 1911 1916 Insurance in Force $10,376,413 $20,237,984 $41,715,817 insurance issued 3,387,774 7,309,183 13,036,445 Total Assets2,100,394 3,589,797 6,975,763 Policy Reserves 1,901,815 3,278,616 6,294,974 Income 543,660 959,194 • 1,973,780 Policies in Force 66,025 99,627 151,544 The Company's action in waiving all restrictions as to Active Service tmdei policies issued prior to the declaration of war has meant a very considerable additional strain, which however, has been fully met out of the earnings of the Company, in addition to the amount required to maintain the present liberal profit scale. Quinquennial distributions of profits in 1917 will be larger than ever. Actual Results exceed Estimates by nearly 40 per cent in the London Life Insurance Co. Head Office, London, Canada Georgie D.
