RETROACTIVE

Webster's Dictionary defines the
word retroactive as affecting what
is past" 1t has been the fixed policy
of the management of the Mutual Ben
eft Life Insurance Company since the
company first commenced to learn by
experience that certain privileges and
benefits not embraced in older policies
could be safely incorporated In its
contracts, to extend every feature that
could possibly be Of any benefit to
holders of policies that were issued
previous to the time when the new
feature was introduced. The manage
ment maintains that a company can
not he truly mutual and pursue any
other plan, but Notwithstanding this
fact il has so far been in a class by
itself i'm this respect, as well as in
many others. All the old established
comDanies are issuing more liberal
policies today than five or ten years
ago, but this fact is of no practical
interest to any man with five or ten
year old policy unless it is in the
Mutual Benefit. 1t is a fact that the
policies being issued by the Mutual
Benefit today are the most liberal ever
printed on paper and 1t Is also true
that should the management find that
they can be made still more liberal 1t
will he done and all policy holders.
old and new, will receive equal bene-
fits. That's Mutuality. Look before
you leap!
