The CHARACTER as well as the reputation of a Life Insurance Company is as good deal like that of an
individual. A reputation may be secured by promises, but CHARACTER is MAINTAINED only by REC-
ORD of SERVICE.
The Detroit Life Insurance Company has endeavored ALWAYS to maintain its standing for SERVICE to
the people. That such a standing is secure may be judged from the record of business done in the year just
closed. The Detroit Life Insurance Company during 1920 broke all records of Michigan companies in the
amount of life insurance sold in Michigan, the total amount being $7,581,442. This certainly is material evi-
appreciation in
dence of the'fact that the people of the State of Michigan appreciate SERVICE, and show that
a most substantial manner.
Another notable evidence of the progress made by the Detroit Life Insurance Company may be seen by
an understanding of these two facts:
The average increase in the amount of paid for new insurance in 1920 of all American C.Anpanies was
