Harrington, in which he says, that “owing to failure of financial support he must postpone the publication of the Class Triennial Record.” Those of the Class who have not subscribed may have had some good reason for not doing so. The Record will add greatly to the Class literature and will be of great in- terest to every member of the Class, and therefore its publication should not be delayed. Those who were at our Triennial last June will remember that a financial report was rendered, stating that we had on hand some $1200. This money of course is to be devoted to the interest of the Class, and is not the publication of the Triennial Record of interest to the Class? Let the Secretary keep what money has already been sub- scribed and draw the balance from the Class Fund. Anyway let us have the Record. I trust that this matter will be of interest enough to call forth other like com- munications. James FrRARY POTTER. North Adams, Mass. —_——_~+0o—____— Obituary. JAMES AUSTIN GALLUP, ’5I. Rev.

Br ce_- G- [F you are thirty-five years old and are in good health, and are earning $100 © a month, your life, on which this earning depends, is worth $22,700 in cash to-day to your family. It you die they lose the $100 a month, the equivalent of which is the $22,700. The cash value of your life to them is therefore $22,700. They lose that if you die. | You have made your family dependent on you: dependent on that $100 a. ‘month, You have put them at the risk of losing # by losing you. — If you had a piece of property which was bringing you in $100 a month and it stood a chance: of being destroyed and so cutting off your income, you would not rest until you had taken enough of that $100 a month and ‘nsured yourself against the loss of it, You would consider that you had not done your duty by yourself until you had so protected yourself effectually, Your life is just such a piece of property to your family: you have made itso. They need just that same effectual protection against its loss which And they cannot protect themselves. They rely on you for that as much as they do for the $100 a month itself, They need protection against that loss even more than you need protection against the loss of your property. But they cannot have it unless you give it to them. You have exposed them to the loss: you have made them dependent on you: you alone can protect them in their dependence. THE CONNECTICUT MUTUAL LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY Makes its plans from the family’s point of view: to give them the most absolute protection, at the least cost to you and with perfect equity to both. It will be glad to serve you and your family in this great matter. JACOB L. GREENE, President, JOHN M. TAYLOR, Vice-President. EDWARD M. BUNCE, Secretary. DANIEL H, WELLS, Actuary.
