S. 120 BROADWAY, NEW YORK Of all the Equitable' s sixty years of public service, 1918 was by far the most important and successful. During that year the greatest epidemic in America's history car ried off over 400,000 people, most of them in the young and healthful period of life. Of the $27,799,026 distributed in death claims by the Equitable in 1918, to the beneficiaries under its policies, $5,200,000 was directly due to the epidemic of Influenza and Pneumonia, emphasizing the urgent need of life insurance and of securing it at an early age. In 1918 the Equitable distributed to its policyholders in Death Claims, Endowments, Dividends and other benefits, $65,412,490. It also promptly met all the obligations imposed by the Government during the great war. Liberty Bonds to the amount of $54,000,000 were purchased during 1918. To do this it was necessary for the Society to borrow $23,000,000. The following figures are from the Society's 59th Annual State ment, which will be furnished on request: OUTSTANDING INSURANCE, Dec. 31, 1918 $1,924,538,578 Increase over 1917, $169,669,670 NEW INSURANCE IN 1918 $273,223,559 Increase over 1917, $21,878,907 '" , INSURANCE RESERVE $483,81797 Balance due Banks, Liberty Bond a c. . 21,000,000 ' Other Liabilities 18,085,970 $522,903,167 SURPLUS RESERVES: For distribution to Policyholders, 1919. $18,016,362 Awaiting apportionment on deferred f dividend vpolicies 57,967,578 For Contingencies -. 12,926,813 $88,910,753 ASSETS, December 31, 1918 $611,813,920 Through GROUP INSURANCE the Equitable, in 1918, in creased the protection furnished by employers to their employes to the extent of $80,000,000. The value of this protection was strik-, ingly illustrated during the epidemic. There yas a marked gain in policies giving beneficiaries Monthly Incomes for life, as well wi in Business Insurance, and in policies to cover Inheritance Taxes. There was also a large increase in life policies providing for ( 1 ) waiver of premiums if totally disabled, (2) continuous income during k total disability, and (3) double payment in case of accidental death. As an extension of this branch of Equitable service, policies are snow issued giving complete accident and health coverage, and pro viding for weekly incomes for disabilities caused by accident and disease. .

Financial success has not , turned his head ; it has not closed his heart, in its sym i nathy and its action, for the i;ood and the comfort and 1 the contentment and happi ness of those who work with him and for him. Had he been content with mere money success he 1 would not have undertaken (the development of the ' business in the same line to which he has given his un divided attention for over a quarter of a century. If money only appealed to him. he w o u 1 d have responsibility for the adif" tion and execution of broio, humane and unusual stand-' , ards of business practicfrA gave him new inspiration ill his work.

Not a single one could tell me. All they knew was that the name Wilson & Company had become very well and very favorably known and that it stands for the high- est, lueais in Dusmess prac ticethat it stands for the highest principles in serv ice to the public facts that are borne out by the statement that the busi ness has more than trebled in volume in three years. Everywhere I go and I v meet hundreds of people everv wepk nf mv lifp T hear that Mr. Wilson puts more Heart and soul into business thap any man , they ever heard of. Chicago people are very proud of the name Wilson. They think that Wilson & Company, by their meth- ! ods and the heart they put ' into the business, are add ,M ing to the fame of Chicago., It is a splendid test of a man's character and his popularity when his home town people speak up for him enthusiastically and affectionately as Chicago people do speak of Thomat E.

He saw an opportunity to be of greater service to his i fellows than ever before in ,his life. He welcomed the chance to develop and direct a busi j ness bearing his own name.
