(Eastman Kodak Co.) 1415 Fourth Ave. Insurance Company. One person in every six in the United States and Canada is a holder of a Metropolitan policy — one of the safest forms of investment. In 1923 the Metropolitan grew faster than any other life insurancecompany in the world; grew in income —in assets—and in the effectiveness of its cs et for better health for the whole country. The Metropolitan sends trained nurses to fh homes of Ane of Indus- trial (i. e. weekly premium) policy- holders when they are sick. Ih 193 these nurses made 2,482,919 visits. While the average life in the general population of the United States is 544 years greater then it was 11 years ago, the life span of the In- ~ dustrial ‘policyholders of the Metro- politan increased nearly 814 years in the same interval. This greater gain has resulted in large part from the Metropolitan's Health Service, During 1943 the Metropolitan dis- tributed 33,790,840 booklets and pamphlets dealing with health, gen- eral welfare and longer life. The total number of pieces distributed to date amounts to 305,990,507. The Metropolitan arranges for free tiodic health examinations for hold- ets of Ordinary policies. Amongthose who availed themselves of this privi- lege, the death rate was to be 28% lower than was expected for the group. The, Metropolitan cooperates with the companies to which it has issued gtoup insurance for their employees “cooperates not only in. giving in- surance protection but also to mote better health, better working conditions, better living conditions and happier social conditions. ra Life insurance, which cates for the home and family, is boc ofa sense of r - sibility. When mil: lions of people join in a mutual sharing of this responsibility the result is the splendid picture shown in the 1923 report of the Metropolitan Life Never before has the world seen such a Business Statement nor had such an op- portunity to look into thehearts of men and women, and to find there _ —Kindness.
