CARD FROM THE SOUTH
The following interesting card has
been received by us which we feel

Dear Friends: We are thinking of
you here in Florida while we are

here and is of high quality. Every-
body here in the south are so kind

tions and it is strictly a tourist city,
with no industries, there are 90

ANNUAL MEETING
The 74th Annual Meeting of the
Hay Township Farmers' Mutual Piro
Insurance Company was held In the
Town Hall, Zurich, .on Monday, the
31st day of January, 1.949 at 2 p.m.
The meeting appointed the President
Reinhold Miller to act" as Chairinan,
and H. K. Either, Secretary.
Following the reading of the anin
V.tea"af 1'io- paxoua':. - na1 Meatin£^,,.
the President's address was read. It
was stated that the year closed with
244i3 policies in force and an insur-
ance coverage of $15,206,770. Dur-
ing the year; the Reinsuring Comp-
anies: The 'Osborne & Hibbert, West
Wawanosh and The McKillop Mutual
had placed 435 policies with us with
an insurance of $1,653,960 and we
had given them 357 policies to the
amount of $1,147,460.
There were 63 claims amounting
to $131,762.61 compared with 89
claims of the previous year amount-
ing to $6,511.63. Includedin the loss-
es paid was $7,496.24 paid to rein-
suring companies. There had been a
decided decrease in the losses pard on.
Colony Houses and Live -stock.
Reference was made to the new
regulations concerning the operation
of Tractors on barn floors. Fire
extinguishers had been bought which
are recommended by the Fire Mar-
shal's Department and the Board of
Directors is insisting that every Tra-
ctor must be equipped with one that
is approved by the Department.
The sum of $3,295.36 had been
paid as Income Tax on the surplus
acquired for the business for 1947
but 1948 showed the operations of
the Company to have a deficit of
$1,975.82'.
It was pointed out that next year
the Company will observe it's 75th
Annual Meeting and it was thought
it would be very appropriate if some
special occasion was observed at that
time.
H. K. Silber, Treasurer of the Co-
mpany then read the annual report
and J. W. Haberer, one of the Aud-
itors reported that he and George
Deichert had audited the Company's
Books and found them correct. They
had al o examined the Securities and
all were registered in the name of
the Company. The Surety Bonds of
the Treasurer and Agent were ex-
amined and found satisfactory.
Under the heading of General Disc-
ussionseveral spoke on the extra
haeard which has arisen by driving
Tractors on Barn Floors also the
loss which appears to be increased
due to defective wiring.
John Armstrong and Fred. J. Hab-
erer were reelected Directors for a
terrn of three years and Ezra Webb
of (,rand Bend for the seine term in
place of Arthur Finkbeiner, who
