In calling attention to the facts that the dividend scale was materially increased in 1910 and again in 1912, and that two special dividends were paid out In 1913' and 1914, respectively, the nanagement modestly announces "To >ur knowledge the record is one which has not been equalled by any >ther life insurance company." As in illustration of the increase, we will take the case of a man 45 years of ige, who tooK out a $z,uuu poucy m L914. The agent very likely told him that according to the scale then effective, he might expect a reduction >f $9.14 in the premium in 1916, but !n reality the reduction will be 112.24. \ proportionate increase applies to U1 other ages and all kinds of polices except term. The foregoing Information is given especially for the benefit of the hundreds of Mutual Benefit policy holders in York county, who have learned by experience >f the goodness and liberality of this :ompany.
