Ernest H. Earley, perennial class officer for 1918 and now class secretary, recently reached the 25th anniversary of his. services as special agent in New York City for the Northwestern Mutual Life Insurance Company, and to mark the occasion the company put out a special folder reviewing his sparkling insurance career.

With a natural aptitude for life underwriting from the start, Mr. Earley's personal production in Northwestern Mutual now stands at $21,566,904, placing him fourth in total volume among all agents in the company's 90-year history.

Other highlights in his insurance career: a life and qualifying member of the Million Dollar Round Table of the National' Association of Life Underwriters, awarded the degree of Chartered Life Underwriter by the American College of Life Underwriters in 1936, president of the Northwestern Mutual Association of Agents in 1934. led the entire Northwestern Mutual field force in 1937-38 with sales of $1,388,430 on 100 lives, and in 1926 won the Gold Button (granted to new agents who show three successive years of increased production) with $1,425,500, which is still the highest in the 27- year history of the award.
