Among the beautiful decorations, principally of the Stars and Stripes, a life-sized oar toon of Abraham Lin coln was hung between two flags.

For tho Information of its nrmy of policy holders the Metropolitan Lifo InBurnnco Company of Now York hns issued n statement of Its stand ing nt tho end of tho yoar 1008. Tho facts set forth show that this great Insurance organization continues to enrry more policies nnd to distribute groator benefits among tho wholo people thnn any othor like Institu tion, while Its own resources gain steadily In proper rntio to Its Increas ing volume of business. The magnitude of tho company's operations la astounding. To fully understand tho montitng of tho fig ures donllng In totals for tho yoar, It Is necessary to 'bring thorn down to the smallest division of time. For oxnmple, tho mind can scarcely com prehend tho significance of tho stnto mcut that iho total nmuunt of out standing policlos nt tho cud of tho yenr was $1,8G1,S90,S03, but wo can oasily grasp tho no leas astonishing fact that during tho business hours of ovory dny In tho yoar tin average of C3 13 new policies woro Issued nnd paid for. Every day taking tho nv orago for tho year 411 persons ro celved from the company tho full vnluo in cash of policies which had boon carried for tholr benefit. Every dny tho company paid out to Its pol icy holders nnd ndded to tho policy paying fund (resorvo fund) inoro thnn $1GG,000. Tho vnluo of prop erty owned nnd acquired by tho Met ropolian Llfo during 1908 incronsod at tho rate of $121,000 por day. A policy holder of tho company dies ovory six minutes, and tho company pays during business hours a death claim on tho avorago ovory sixty-two seconds. Tho company owns nearly ono hun dred million dollnrs' worth of United States bonds, city bonds, nnd railroad bonds and ntocks; moro than nlnoty millions of bonds and mortgages; morp than twonty-two millions of real ostate, and much other tangible proporty, all hold wh assots nvallablo for the payment of its obligations. Noarly ton million policies (0,000, 10G) nro carrlod by Individuals In tho Metropolitan Life. If these policy holdors wore gathered Into ono com munity they would constltuto a city of moro than tho combined popula tion or the twolvo largest cltlos In tho United Stntcs. Perhaps nothing brought out in this report Is moro wonderful to con tomplato thnn tho fact that ono force of executive officers nnd office em ployes transact a business of this complicated nature with so vast a numbor of people.
