Mixture rich in fat whip readily and aiv easily kept firm, but If too heav ily sweetened are difficult to freeze, to harden, and to keep firm. Whole milk will not giv" the smooth texture secured by using cream, but if sufficient cream i.s not available, the addi tion of a little gelatin will im prove the texture, particularly if the Ice cream is to be hardencil or j acked before serving.

This means that the policyholders now have a direct voice in the affairs of the company and all profits earned belong to them.' No dividends will be distributed to anyone except policyholders,' be cause the policyholders will be the sole owners of the company. Present and future policyholders will enjoy Jife-insurance protection at a ,'ow net cost, because .' the company itself belongs to them and they will share in its earnings. JThc generous attitude on the part of the former stockholders is deserving of highest commendation. Twenty-three years ago these men started the Oregon Life Insurance Company with their own capital, and helped it get, a sound , start and grow into a prosperous institution. Now that their money is no ' ':' longer needed, they have very graciously withdrawn it on the basis of their original investment, leaving the entire earnings of the future to the policy holders themselves. IJTluis an old company adopts a new name ... henceforth the Oregon Life Insurance Company will be known as the Oregon Mutual Life Insurance Compa.n1. a company of the policyholders, by the policy holders, and r the policyholders. , , ' , ' OREGON MUTUAL LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY 'The only ' mutual company west of the Rockies"
