COMPANY .E" DANCES

Despite the fact that a ma
jority of the Co. "E" Clubs
patrons have expressed their
willingness to support the
1892 dance program at an
increased admission price, the
secretary has announced that
the first affair of the approach
ing season, which has been
scheduled for Sept. II, will see
no change. AS in previous
years, the gala opening dance
will be held at the State Ar
mory, Elkton, and Floyd Mills
and his Marylanders have been
booked to furnish music.
Mills band will be remem-
bered as the group which APP
!pealed SO heartily to the Co.
"E' Clubs patrons at the
Christmas Cotillion, last sea-
son, with the result that these
musicians again appeared at
Elkton for the st. Patrick's
Dance, on March q. The
Marylanders will appear at
Elkton following a successful
season at Atlantic City.
At a recent meeting of the
dance promoters, a tentative
schedule for the approaching
season was arranged as fol-
lows: Gala Opening Dance,
Sept. IL; Autumnal Ball, Oct.
8; Halloween Dance, Oct. 3d.
Thanksgiving Dance. Nov. 81:
New Years Ball, Dec. 81; Mid

Though champion Of the year
among horses Of her age and
standing head and shoulder over
all colts with the one possible ex'
ception of Tick On, Top Flight
has not yet been mentioned by
her stable connections as a likely
Derby nominee.
The Derby annually is run over
the Churchill Downs track about
mid-May. Nominations for the
stake do not close until early in
February. No regular future line
of prices will be available until
the complete list of nominations
appears in print. Exceptions are
made only when a number of
owners declare intentions to
point certain colts or fillies for
the Derby.
May Not Enter
If young Whitney follows prece-
dent established by his father
several years before his death,
Top Flight will not be nominated
for the Blue Grass prize. Since
1927. when Whiskery won the
Derby, none of the first-String
3-year-oldS of the Whitney stable
have been seriously pointed for
the stake. During the winter Of
1929-30, there was much Specula-
ton on the possibilities of either
or both Whichone and Boojun
being named among the Whitney
Derby possibilities. The matter
was not definitely settled until
the late sportsman personally in
formed the writer in December
to this effect:
Please inform your readers
that / do not now make Q praC-
tice Of ordering my best three
year-OldS made ready for races
that early in the West. BOOjum
and WhichOne will not be point
ed for the Nerby."
When Col. Matt Winn released
the nominations, only those Of the
second division among the Whit.
ney three-year-olds were among
those present.
With the Pimlico (Md0 meet
ing coming to a close next Sat
urday afternoon, c. v. Whit
ney will, for the second conSecu
tive year, head the list Of winning
owners for tre autumn meeting at
that track. Last year the stable
topped the winning owners list
with a total of $57 ,920. Top Flight
alone, with her Futurity triumph
Of last Saturday, won $56,170. The
earnings for the late 1890 meeting
included the winning Of three
races besides The $780, 800 Equipoise
accounted for in the Futurity.

ANNUITY POLICY

in Old Age Assured by
Terms, He Shows
BY FRANK F. LOOMS

Worry Is the force that Is hold
ing the life span at So years.
Medical science has freed US If
most of diseases, but has left the
individual to fight his own battle
against the premature destruction
Of his n body by worry.
What do men and women worry
about that shortens their lives so
materially? They worry over
money matters eagerly, the most
perniciouS and persistent worry
there is. Many men never. reach
old age because they worry them
selves to death over who is going
to keep them during the later
years of life, when they are too
old to work.
Safety for Everyone
Hundreds Of old men who have
had bad luck with their invest
ments are dependent on relatives
or institutions because they did
not take the trouble to make
guaranteed provision for the after
sixty period. Sixty-five per cent
Of all men are dependent on
others for their daily bread after
that age.
Many of that IS per cent could
easily have been sitting on easy
street. with 5000 to $500 checks
dropping in on the first of every
month.
Practically all men and women
would like to feel that some day
they would be in a position 10
stop working and still be inde-
pendent financially. Some have
dreams of riches, travel, but the
majority desire quiet retirement
to enjoy life for the balance Of
their days.
Monty Pay Assured
How would you like to have
$500 a month guaranteed you as
soon as you reach age 60; paid to
you on the first day of every
month thereafter? This can be
done. Just call up the life insur.
ar1ce man. Not any particular
man or company, just any compe-
tent life underwater, and ask him
about an annuity.
AnnuitieS are attractive because
they combine absolute safety with
satisfactory income. They are
particularly suitable for people
without dependents, who have
passed middle life and who want
a guaranteed income through
their remaining years.
For instance, take the case of a
woman 65 years of age, with capi.
tai of $4,000. Invested in securi-
ties earning per cent, her annual
income is $3.50. But, if this capi-
tai were used to purchase a life
annuity, she would be guaranteed
an annual income Of about $1,441
for the rest of her life.
Man Has Advantage
A man, of the same age, for the
same amount of money, could Sc
cure an annual income Of about
81 $40 guaranteed annually for
life.
A man, 60 years old, who pur-
chases an annuity, receives an in
come of over 9A per cent annu+
ally. Purchased at age IS. the in
come is 1913 per cent; at 10 years,
nearly 13 per cent, and at rs
years, over 14A per cent. The
income for a woman is slightly
lower, ranging from 8.3 per cent,
if purchased at age so, to 1875 per
cent if purchased at age IS years.
If you are past so years Of age,
and desire contentment. happi.
mss and a sense Of security for the
rest of your life, you should learn
the facts about annuitieS.
