TO OUR MEMBERS, SPECIAL NOTICE: 



The AMERICAN MUTUAL CYCLONE 

 & HAIL INSURANCE COMPANY, of 

 which you are a member, has grown and 

 prospered beyond the greatest expecta- 

 tions of its founders; we now having over 

 $3,500,000.00 of an assessable capital. A 

 sufficient loss fund to take care of ordi- 

 nary losses, not in debt a single dollar, 

 every loss (in which the proofs have been 

 returned to the office) are paid in full to 

 date. The officers are proud of the condi- 

 tion of this company and are proud of you 

 for helping to make this company the 

 strong institution it now is. Now it is 

 up to us and you to make this company 

 Bigger, Better and Stronger. We propose 

 to do this in the following manner: 



1st. To reorganize the company under 

 the Insurance Act of 1915 of the Slate of 

 Indiana. This will place the company 

 under the direct supervision of the Insur- 

 ance Departments of each and every State 

 where we have members; thus assuring 

 you of a wider protection, including Fire 

 on your Dwellings and Out Buildings as 

 well as Cyclone and Hail on your entire 

 plant and crops. The demand for Fire 

 Insurance on this Company has been very 

 great, coming from Greenhouse owners, 

 but under the law that we now operate, 

 we can not protect our members against 

 loss by fire. 



2nd. This will enable us to divide the 

 surplus profits each year with our mem- 

 bers, by way of cash dividends or a reduc- 

 tion in the cost of their insurance. 



3rd. The Re-organization will in no 

 way affect your present membership, but 

 will better it, it will not cost you a single 

 dollar more or less to consent to the 

 reorganization, and besides it will give us 

 the right to have our members of each 

 state to elect one of their number to our 

 Board of Directors. 



This action is granted by the unanimous 

 consent of the Board of Directors of the 

 American Mutual Cyclone & Hail Insur- 

 ance Company, of Muncie, Indiana, and is 

 in harmony with the resolutions passed 

 by said Board of Directors at their meet- 

 iLg, held at the Home Office of said Com- 

 pany on the 14th day of May, 1917. 



THE AMERICAN MUTUAL CYCLONE 

 & HAIL INSURANCE COMPANY, 

 Oscar E. Anderson, Secretary.
