Pratt. <.’ommaiuier of American Legion. John Rich Pen tecost, Post No. 53, of Winder. Georgia, i-thi.s month engaged iu an active campaign to have the members of this Post, who have lapsed their War Risk Insurance, reinstate same, if possible, on or before December 31. 1919, as all members of the Post, and all ex service men, regardless of when they were discharged, can rein state same without undergoing any’ physical examination, by pay ing only two premiums,- the month of grace and the current, month, approximately $12.00 or $13.00, ac- cording to their age, and by mere ly executing form seting forth the fact that they believe themselves to be in as good physical condition now, as they were at date of dis charge. The proper form to be ex ccuted can be obtained by apply ing to the Commander, of John Rich Pentecost No. of Winder. Oa., who will be more than glad to give all ex-service men any in formation they may desire regard ing re-instatement and conversion of their War Risk Insurance. There are now in this district some 4t>o or f>oo of ex-service men whom w hile in the service carried insurance in the amount of $lO,- 000, or less. That through thought- !

National Lunch Room Winder, Georgia Ussness or ignorance of their rights a large part of this insur ance. should be allowed to lapse, would be a calamity, not only to the ex-service men themselves but to the community in which they live. People seldom stop to figure what this is going to mean to the future economic states of Barrow County to have so large a number of its citizens possessed of estates of approximately SIO,OOO. Try to reckon it in round millions, but of course it is to the ex-service, men’s own interest, that we speak this is the cheapest, safest and most liberal insurance within his reach, and any man who allows the pre sent special opportunity for rein- statement to pass, it likely to bit terly regret his mistake in the days to come. Single men have a way of getting married; depend ants arc growing more, not less; there are such things as casualties in civilian as well a.s military life, which may render a man perman ently and totally disabled; if he carries SIO,OOO. Government In surance, he receives $57.50 per month as long as he lives and he becomes no burden to himself, Ids friends or the community. The American Legion feels that, it Is their duty and the duty ofevery public spirited citizen, who has I the welfare and interest of the cx i service men at heart., to nress these things to the attention of the sol diers. It is an individual interest, a family interest and community interest that is at stake. It is also desired to bring to the attention of the ex-service tuen in tR community, the fact that they cun convert their War Risk Insurance to a Government In- surance policy such as Ordinary life, 20 Payment Life, Twenty Year Endowment, etc., at a sub stantially low rate, and this is a form of insurance which is accu mulating and saving money of hem every day. They can borrow mi same, or if they allow it to rnii- THURSDAY, DECEMBER 18th ture it can be “cashed in” and they will receive a nice fat “lump sum” payment, just at the time of life when they most need it, andla st but not least, remember, they pay' not one penny of over head ex pence to the Government for the administration of this Tn su ranee. Tin* I>irector of the Bureau of War Risk Insurance, Col. ft. G. Chomcley Jones has placed at the disposal of the American Legion and all ex-service men throughout, the State of Georgia a Represena tivc of the Bureau of War Risk Insurance. It is urgently suggest ed that any’ and all ex-service men and their dependants avail them selves of the opportunity to take up all matters pertaining to allot ment undallowa* uoes. compensa tion, etc., with the Gommunder or John Rich Pentecost, or by writ, ing direct to Mr. John il. Folsom, Special Representative Bureau of War Risk Insurance, Masons’ An nuity Building, Atlanta, Georgia. All matters referred to him will receive immediate attention.
