To safeguard their families as well

asd sailors should Immediately avail
themselves of the privileges that are
conferred in the Military and Naval
Insurance Act. The government has
made it possible for every man in the
service to insure himself in the sum
OF $4,000. and every mar should avail
himself OF this opportunity and take
out the full amount. Already four
billion dollars has been applied for.
but this is just about one fourth of
what it should be, If every man in the
service insured himself.
