tributed his full share TO such magnificent demon
straton Of the kind Of cooperation which is the very
essence Of all that is best in American life.
Some idea of the magnitude Of the achievement
will be conveyed by the fact that in the CoNTINEN-
tai alone, the death losses during the two months
when the epidemic at its height were greater
than all the losses for the preceding four years
bined These extraordinary losses added TO the
NAL losses for the year, brought the CoNTINENTALs
total death losses for 1918 up to than the
bined losses for the five preceding years.

STABILITY OF THE COMPANIES

The amount contributed to this great emergency
by each holder of life insurance is likely to be re-
ected in the dividends which he receives his in
surance during the next few years. In many COM
panies the customary policy dividends will have to
be reduced in order TO replenish surplus already
depleted to the point of minimum safety by the
heavy depreciation in the market value of securities
No such dividend reductions should be construed
as rejecting in the least the financial integrity
of any company the fact that il pays any dividends
at all is ample evidence that its resources exceed its
requirements, both present and prospective. The su-
preme test OF this great epidemic, coming on top of
all the strains Of world war, has brought out as
never before the outstanding fact that life in
surance, of all investments, may be relied upon,
der any and all conditions, 10 pay cash demand.

The GREAT EPIDEMIC

1t is one Of the crowning glories of our American
civilization that the appalling misery which would
have followed the great influenza epidemic with its
horrible loss of life, greatly alevated by the
cooperative principle Of life insurance which lifted
crushing burden from the shoulders of thousands
over such large part of the entire population that
it ceased to be serious burden TO any one
In no other country could such catastrophe have
occurred without leaving infinitely greater desoa-
ton in its wake for nowhere else is life insurance
so universal America alone so well prepared
for such an emergency. Through the medium Of
life insurance, America came forward with hun
dreds of millions of dollars and saved the homes,
fed and clothed the families, provided for the edu-
cation of the children and rescued countless busi
enterprises from impending disaster.
It cannot fail to be tremendous satisfaction to
every holder of life insurance to realize that he
