BOOKING AT ANDERSON'S

Assurance Company of Canada

THE year 1934 has been one of returning confidence and of gradual recovery in

business generally.

Because of its strength and dependability, tested and proved during a long period of universal anxiety, life assurance has been one of the first forms of business to experience the effects of the trend towards recovery.

That this experience.has been shared by the Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada is indicated in the satisfactory character of the year's operations as reflected in the following summary of the Directors' report:
