In 1895 — an important date in the Company's history—the organization was ex- tended into the United States where, from coast to coast, it now maintains a highly efficient branch office and agency service. The Company's growth is signi- ficant proof of wide public acceptance. Through three quarters of a century, during which wars have scarred the earth, and mighty inventions and discoveries have altered man's destiny, the Sun Life of Canada has met successive opportunities, expanding as life and indus- try took on new shapes and aspects. In 1895—at the end of the first twenty-five years of operation—the assurances in force amounted to $35 million. At the end of fifty years—in 1920—this amount had risen to $488 million. Today, after seventy-five years of public service, the Sun Life of Canada holds a leading place among life assurance companies with well over one million policyholders, and assurances in force of $3,390,372,327. The Company's financial strength and high standard of service are indeed worthy of the finest traditions of a great time-honored enterprise.
