His address was a "classifica- tion" talk which comparatively rxew members give after they jomn the club on the type of work which they do. .Mr. White pointed out that in- sûrance is primarily the sharing of risk among many in order to niake the burden less on the indlividual. It is also a method of preparation in the prosperous pre.sent for the needs of an un- certain future. There is nothing new about Insurance, he said. as the merchants of Rhodes in 900 A.D. had established the Rhodian Sea Law which was an early form of irisiirance. The Romans also, fori-aed burjal associations which had much in common with present-day lîfe insurance. In the Middle Ages the guilds and societies set up various types of risk-sharing plans much aki n to insurance as we know it, he said.

At tecompletion of this course the student receives the tîtle of Cbartered Life Underwriter. Whereas life insurance was previously regarded as merely a means of financing burial ex-. penses, it can now be used ta'1 provide funds for practically any purpose such as education, re- tirement, emergencies, pensions,î etc. His firm-paid out $500 mii- lion ta living beneficiaries lasL year, he statcd.
