seas are asking for more reading
matter, according to a cable
from General Pershing asking
more magazines be sent to
the boys on duty in France aud
in other countries of Europe.
The cable goes on to state that
with the excitement of the
fighting campaigns gone, the
men of the expeditionary forces
are more than ever in need of
interesting reading matter
while waiting for the" day when
they will receive word that they
are to be sent home.
The American Red Cross has
en asked To do all it can
through its chapters to increase
the number of magazines seut
overseas^ aJicL-in order to over
come .the shortage as quickly as
possible individuals aie asked to
double and triple the number of
magazines they were previously
accustomed to send.

you can-Change your present
government policy into another

to live years after jK*ace is de*
dared.

my policy, will it be carried by
private company^.

i3 in tlieHusurance business for
you if you will continue to pay
your premiums.
4. When is it advisable for
me to convert, my policy'?
Ans. On your converted pol
icy you pay the rate for the age
which you have reached at the
time you convert. Hence, the
sooner you covnert the lower the
rate on your premium for the
policy. The best advice is to
convert immediately upon re
ceiving from the government a
notice stating that conversion is
pofible.A\ , • 3

dowment maturing at age 62.
Will the nv*.es t>rr niv con
verted policy be higher than the
rates on my present policy, if so,
why'
Ans. They will be higher be
cause you purchase a policy
which has more privileges in it
i.o. Cash value, loan value,
paid-up, aud extended insurance
rates. But these rates, namely,
oil. converted policies, will be
from 25 to_ 3i per cent lower
than the rates for .similar poli-
cies in-private companies’. The
reason that the Government is
able to sell you this insurance
cheaper than the private com
panies is that it bears the entire
expenses of running the business
and gives you the benefit of the
net cost of the insurance.

been iu force for oue year ; pro
vided premiums have been paid
up tq date. But the amount
that lie borrows from the gov
ernment bears interest at the
rate of 6 per cent. The amount
which lie can borrow is stated
in the policy.
(2) Cash value ' means that
tiie insured has the right to sur
render his policy to the govern
ment and receive in- return a
certain amount of niouey known
as tl»e “C-sh value.’' .
a policy for a lower amount but
on which he will pay t\o more
premiums.
(4) Extended insurance
means that if the insured pays
his insurance after he hr scon-
verted it, he will be insured for
a certain specified period (or the
full amouut of the insurance;
and.if lie dies within that limi
ted time the policy will be paya
ble to bis beneficiary.
TO W»I1 tlip converted |>oli-
cies' be called “participating’’
po’icies on which dividends will
be paid?
Ans. Yea. Converted poli
cies will participate in dividends
“from the gains and savings as
may be determined and appor
tioned.”:* Such dividends “may
be taken in cash or left on de
posit to accumulate at present. ”
jj Will it be possible to con
tinue a part of a man’s insurance
on the present form aqd convert
the remainder?

money enough to pay the con
certed rates on the full amount
of your policy, convert part of
