other work among tubercular persons can not be overstressed. “More than half the 1.250 new cases this year were contact cases. This shows the extreme importance of proper care of patients,” said Dr. Morgan. Work of the free tubercular clinics under the department of health and charities is made possible by the mandatory tax levy. Cost of the division last year about 530,000.

NEW YORK LIFE INSURANCE CO. (incorporated under the laws of New York) A MUTUAL ORGANIZATION, FOUNDED IN 1845 EIGHTY-FOURTH ANNUAL STATEMENT
To the Policy-holders: Our Eighty-fourth Animal Report has been verified and is being tiled with various government authorities. May I point out to you, the people chiefly interested. some of its salient facts'? As policy-holders you paid the Company last year in round figures $256,j 000,000. The Company paid to you and to beneficiaries $156,000,000. That left us about $100,000,000. Our net reserves increased during the year $100,000,000. We put that $100,000,000 in our reserves. You may ask, what are reserves'? Broadly speaking, they are funds set aside from which future liabilities are j to be met. We put that $100,000,000 in reserves at the close of the year for that specific purpose. A policy of Life Insurance is almost exactly like a bond. It will mature some day. Nearly all bonds mature at a definite date. Most policies of Life Insurance mature at an indefinite date, but all will mature, in some form, within a limited period of years. A sound bond is protected by a Sinking Fund —from which the bond is to be redeemed at maturity. The Sinking Fund is accumulated by yearly deposits. That $100,000,000 was our 1028 deposit, our addition to the Sinking Fund for that year. The law requires it. If we had failed to make or could not make that entry (deposit) w r e would soon be declared insolvent by the Insurance Departments and the Courts. The reserve increase for 1928 was large, blit no larger than the Jaw requires. That we shall redeem all our bonds (policies) as they come due is certain. ! You know that. The other income of the Company was sufficient to pay all the expenses of acquiring $900,000,000 of new business in 1928, the care of about $6,500,000,000 of old business, taxes, $6,700,000, ths care of invested funds, the maintenance of other legal reserves and a sum sufficient to pay in 1929 $8,000,000 more in dividends than we paid in 1928, and to increase the general, surplus by $4,000,000. In addition the Companv loaned you on the sole security of your policies $52,700,000. These are round figures, calculated to give you merely an outline sketch of the Company's activities in 1928. SAVING YOUR MONEY How much of the $156,000,000 we paid you or to beneficiaries during 1928 and how much of the $52,700,000 loaned you during that year will be lost because unwisely invested? That is a very important question. It goes to the very heart of the usefulness of Life Insurance. To save money by investing it soundly is difficult. Even men of experience frequently make mistakes. I do not overstate the truth when I say that few people having small amounts of money to invest do it wisely. REMEMBER You can leave the proceeds of your insurance with this Company in trust for your beneficiaries or you can leave any cash due under your policy and the Company will hold it. guaranteeing your principal and not less than.3% interest. On all such bonds we will pav in 1929 (as we have done for some years) 4.6%. In 1928 you left with the Company in this way under various accounts $28,000,000. Your total under these accounts on January 1,1929, was $70,000,000. That $70,000,000 is not .just a deposit. It is mingled with the Company's entire assets and is a part of the Company’s liabilities. It is backed, as all our liabilities are, by $1,500,000,000. Finally study the balance sheet below. There you have the facts about our financial condition, while above you have a picture of the new Home Office: “A Dream Realized.”
