In an interesting address, well-inter- spersed with humour, Mr. Mee- han startled his audience by stating that most o! them woulld be dead if they had been living 40 years ago. People are living an average o! 26 years longer than they did a generation ago, he. said. Medical science is keeping us alive longer-often to the tune of high medical ex- Penses. In view of this, life in- Surance is less important nov!, while medical insurance has be- corne a "must"'. Mr. Hergott old the gather- ing that the Ontario Federationi o!

Certain mar- keting legisiation has already been achieved, he said, and more is needed.
