“The Mutual Provident Messenger” for August, in the course of an article headed “New Zealand,” quotes with approval the figures published by the Registrar-General, dealing with the progress of the colony from 1894 to 1904, and adds: —“Naturally, we would expect life insurance also to expand under these conditions. The Government Life Insurance Department increased its business in the ten years from £9,232,000 to £11,261,000 assured. including v bonuses; whilst the New Zealand branch of our own society increased its business from £7,433,000 to £10,628,000 assured, including bonuses. Our members will, we believe, be pleased to observe these evidences of progress all round, and particularly in regard to our own progress, in comparison with those of the New Zealand Government Life Insurance Department.”
