MAY LOSE THEIR SAVINGS
Mutual Policy Holders Revolt Against
Merger with Old Line Company
at Higher Rates.

Kearney, in Clay county, is in a
ferment of excitement over the trans
fer of the Clay Life Association to De-
catur, Ill.
The Clay Life Association was or
ganized in Kearney twenty-four years
ago on a mutual plan, and its rates
were very low. II had 5,32l policy
holders in Western Missouri, the ma
jority of them in Clay and Ray coun-
ties, and in st. Joseph and Springfield.
Many of these had been paying prem
iums for twenty-four years. Now the
company has been merged with an
old-line life insurance company in De-
catur, ILL.,, and those of the old conf
pany who wish to pay old-line insur-
ance rates may get new policies in the
Illinois company for their old policies
in the Clay Life Association. Other
wise they must drop out and lose all
they ever paid in.
This works hardship upon old men
and women policy holders in the COM
pany because the rate they will have
to pay for new policies will be so high
as to be almost prohibitive. OF the
policy holders in the Clay Life Asso-
citation 1900 are upwards of fifty
years old, and many are sixty and
seventy.
The Clay Life Association had
S5,521 900 written insurance. The Hi
nois company which absorbed it had
thirty thousand policy holders, 80 mil
lion dollars insurance in force and "a
million dollars assets.
The policy holders in Clay county
are organizing now to see if some
proceeding cannot be brought to set
the transfer aside and have retained

Goods Need A GYM.
Women at Missouri University
Have Started a Campaign
for New Building.

General Assembly Hall for the Women
at Columbia Has Been Need
ed for Years.

Missouri university women have
started a campaign to show Missouri
legislators the need of woman's gym
nasium and general building at Colum-
bia. For years there has been need
of such place for Y. w. G. A. meet
ings, for rest rooms and the like. At
the last session of the state legisla-
ture a bill for such building was
presented, but the appropriation was
not passed.
Several years ago the institution set
aside tract of land for women's ten
mis- courts and hockey grounds, but
the best gymnasium they could build
was little 10 by II wooden structure
that would hardly accommodate doz-
en- girls comfortably.
Miss Gladys Udell, president of the
Women's SelfGovernment Association,
and of the Women's Council, is in
charge OF the campaign for general
assembly hall building for Missouri
co-eds.
THE only building that at present
can be called a women's building"
said Miss Udell several days ago, sis

If those who make appropriations for
Missouri university could see the ac-
commodations provided for $50 wom-

more generous with us"

en- at Missouri university, talked to
