duct Home Office expenses of $1,000
it still leaves profit of $77,l00.

group of people, had its principal re-
turned and made 200 per cent. profit

of approximately five years, provided

The Insurance
Con7pany's Viewpoint

There is another side to this investi-
cation which, while it is of importance
chiefly to the insurance company,
serves as additional evidence of the
actual value of periodic physical exani-
nations. 1t is the saving in money ef-
fected by the insurance company. This
point is we'll covered in the followino
extract from DR.. Knights address:
II HE present value of the total
mortality gains as of 1uly.
1920, was computed as $126,477. From
this amount must be subtracted the
cost OF the original and the subse-
quent examinations made on the 5000
persons examined by the Institute.
This was approximately $4,000. The

fit of the Institutes examination and
counsel.
Irrespective of the manner in which
you obtain the services of the Insti-
tute, the mere act of placing yourself
in its care is the biggest step you can
take towards good health and longer
life.
The Life Extension Institute was
established by group of scientists,
publicists and business men, who de-
sired to provide self-supporting CEN
trail institution of national scope de-
voted to the science of increasing hu-
man happiness and efficiency and pre-
venting human misery and inefhciency
"a responsible and authoritative
source from which the public might
draw knowledge and inspiration in
avoiding needless sickness and prema-
ture death.
The Life Extension Institute works
in accord with the highest ideals of
modern scientific medicine 1t is IT.
revocably opposed to fads and quacks
and cIarlatans.
The Institute gives appropriate hy-
gienic guidance and instruction to all
its members, but does not include
medical or surgical treatment in it's
service. If the irnpairments found are
serious, the member is told of the need
Of medical, surgical or dental atten-
ton, and is informed of the type of
treatment that would be most ad
vantageous.
1t makes no difference where you
live. In addition to it's large staff of
men and women examining physicians
in the Head Office here in New York,
the Life Extension Institute has 1000
examining physicians listed through
out the United States and Canada.

live in New York and vicinity are
made at the Head Office of the Insti-
tute, rs West Forty-hfth Street doth

There is special department for

The story of what the Life Exten-

message of hope to other men and
women.

Viewpoint of
The Individual

To the individual who receives the
Institutes physical examination and
hygienic guidance there is a two-fold
benefit. First, there is the lengthening
of life. In addition to this there is the
inevitable increase in personal eff
ciency-the additional capacity for
either work or play and the consequent
increase in earning power.
New-York tribune., 1921-11-22

F EVER proof were needed to
/ show how the Health Service
Of the Life Extension Institute
will prolong human life, it is given
in an address recently made by
Augustus S. Knight, M. D., Medi-
cal Director of the Metropolitan
Life Insurance Company, deliv-
cred before the Association of Life
Insurance Medical Directors.
Since 1914 The Metropolitan
has extended to it's ordinary pol
icyholders the privilege of the
confidential physical examination
and Health Service of the Life Ex-
tension Institute. Although this
service is paid for, in such cases,
by the Metropolitan Life Insur-
ance Company, the results are alb
solutely confidential between the
Life Extension Institute and the
person examined. This is it's un-
alterable rule.
1t is only within the past year
that it has been possible to com
pute exactly what the Life Exten-
sion Institute has done for the
policylolders who availed them
selves Of it's services. The in
vestigatlon, conducted by the
metropolitan Lif e Insurance
Company to secure this infor-
nation, has brought to light a
record of life extension that will
astound anyone not familiar with
the results already accomplished
by the Institute.
This investigation covered
group of approximately 5000
pollcyholders examined by the In
stltute during the years 1914 and
1915. These people were of all
ages-young, middle aged and old.
They represented wide variations
OF physical condition. What has
the Health Service of the Life
Extension Institute accomplished
tor these people? This question
is answered clearly and conciselv
IN an extract from DR.. Knight's
address,:
HE group as whole had an ex-
posure of 33,o2e years, making
an average of about FIVE and one
malt years per person since, the in
ltlal examinatio n. Tho tracing
through the Companys records
showed that there had been actually
~l/ deaths among the close to six
Thousand persons during this period
There should have been az deaths
according to the American Expert
enCo aDle. In other words
'he group, as whole, gave a NOR
tallty rate So per cent. of the Amer
lean Experience Table"
New-York tribune., 1921-11-22

This is approximately 3O%o below
the expected death rate among insured
lives generally.
67%o Reduction in Death
Rate Among Impaired Lives
But among these policyholders were
many who showed important physical
defects and impairments. On this class
alone the death rate was reduced 679o
from that estimated as the expected on
the class. Even those found in good
general physical condition, however,
likewise showed a substantial reduc-
ton in death rate, thus evidencing the
protective value of the service in keep
ing people we'll, in addition to making
people we'll.
1t should be borne in mind, too, that
these results lUere accomplished at
time sUhen this great Institution .uas in
its infancy. When its equipment and
its staff of examining physicians .uere
necessarily far below their present
state of efficiency.

of the Institutes work. The Metro

SHERIFF SPROULE DECLARES WAR
ON CARS WITH UNDIMMED LIGHTS

Sheriff Sproule this morning an
nounced that he was about to begin
a campaign against mortorists who
refuse to dim their lights when they
meet other cars at night. The law
provides stiff penalty for this Of
fense.
Their Sheriff declared that he con-
stantly receives complaints from
drivers who assert that there is a
certain species of road hog, who pos
itively refuses to dim their lights.
The sheriff also declared that when
cars are parked at the side of the
street in the country or in the resi-
dence section of any city, the lights
should be left on. 1t is difficult for
the driver of another car to see a
machine standing in the dark unless
the light are on, and accidents are
likely to result, the sheriff says.

Soldiers' Compensation Claims
Being Adjusted.

A reduction of 29,476 in the num-
Der of pending compensation and in
surance claims of former service
men and women has been effected
during the last three months of the
fiscal year ending July /, 1921, it is
announced today by Director G. R.
Forbes of the Bureau of War Risk
Insurance. This reduction in the
number Of claims on which final ac-
ton is still to be taken has been ac-
copmlished notwithstanding the fact
that new claims have been reaching
the Bureau during that period at an
average rate of from 700 to 800 a
day, and that these new cases receive
at once as complete action as is pos
sible on the data presented.
On April 1, 1921, there were pend
ing before the Bureau 99,401 claims
for compensation and 5,788 insurance
claims; on July I, 1921, the account
stands $1,000 pending compensation
claims and 3,025 pending insurance
claims, while during that period of
time 56,258 new claims have been
filed with the Bureau.

WASHINGTON LETTER
ECONOMY IN COAL PRODUCTION

Washington, July ESPECIAL
cOrrespondence)-In the opinion of
Senator Albert B. Cummins of Iowa,
Chairman of the Senate Interstate
Commerce Committee, the chief ben
eft of the pending bill authorizing
the Interstate Commerce Commission
to prescribe seasonal freight rates
on coal will be the discharge from
the mines of 25 per cent of the men
now engaged in mining. At the
present time large portion of the
miners are idle throughout the sum-
mer, but they must be kept at the
mines to meet the increased demand
for coal that comes with the winter
months. If those men could be re-
leased to enter some other line of
employment it would not only be
economically desirable, but it would
relieve one Of the causes that con-
tribute to restlessness and discomfort.
Seasonal freight rates may not make
a great deal Of difference to the small
consumers of coal, but if it offers suf-
ficient inducement to the large users
to cause them to make their purchases
in the summer, Senator Cummins
thinks the legislation is we'll warrant
ed.
