QUESTIONS OF WAR INSUR-
ANCE FOR THE BOYS
bft AFTER THE WAR

Washington, Nov. 15-Preparations
by the government for reinsuring the
lives of soldiers and sailors on their
return have been hastened by the
signing of the armistice. Although
regulations have not yet been fully
drafted, it is considered certain that
each of the 4,250,000 men in the mill
tary or naval service now holding vol
untary government insurance will be
permitted within five years after
peace is declared to convert it without
further medical examination into ord
mary life, 20 pay life, endowment ma
turing at the age of 81 or other pre-
scribed forms of insurance.
This insurance will be arranged by
the government not by private COM
panies, and the cost is expected to be
forms offered by private agencies.
Private companies could not write
insurance on very many wounded men.
The government will arrange to
collect premiums monthly. if men wish
to pay this way, or for long periods
in advance. This may be done thru
the postoffice. The minimum amount
of insurance to be issued probably will
be $1,000 and the maximum $4,000
with any amount between these sums
in multiples Of $500. There will be
provision for payments in case Of dis
ability rs well as death according to
the tentative plan. The insurance
may be purchased by any sailor OF
soldier, or marine-officer enlisted
and by women members Of the army
or navy nurse corps, providing they
already hold government voluntary
life insurance. About 95 per cent Of
the l,5O0, 900 men in the service arr
covered by this insurance which ex.
pires after they get back to civilian
life and cease paying premiums. This
is the system devised to replace the
old pension plan Of providing for ex.
soldiers and sailors.
Thus will be created out Of the gov.
ernment's emergency war insurance
bureau the greatest life insurance in.
stitution in the world for peace times
with more policy holders and greater
aggregate risk than half a dozen oi
the worlds biggest private companies
combined. Out Of the experience
gained may develop expansion Of gov
ernmept insurance in old age, indus,
trial and other forms Of insurance il
the opinion of officials who have stud
led the subject. Resolutions for re
insuring returning soldiers and sail
ors are being framed by an advisor!
board in the military and naval sec
ton of'the war risk bureau consisting
of Arthur Hunter, actuary of the New
York Life Insurance company; w. A
Frazer, Omaha, of the Woodmen o.
the World; and F. Robertson johnson
of the Workmen's Compensation Pub
lic1ty bureau Of New York.
A proposition is also under consid
leration for allowing benehciaries o.
linen who have died or been killed d
the service to choose between takini
monthly payments over,a period Of q
years, or to commute these payment

health as for ns safely. possible on the
shoulders Of the women Ia the home.
There is nothing so dangerous as
"panrnUr nursing" that Is giving med
iriu" without the doctors orders. but
there ARE certain things she can safely
do Tor them when they are sick.
First ~ all don't be afraid of catch
ing" contagious disease but take
proper precautions. and then believe
that you and your family will keep
veil.
Remember that great number of
communicable diseases are spread by
the J. These germs. as in the cases
of Inhucuza and pneumonia, are ex-
PEELED into the air when the sick per
son coughs. sncezes. talks forcibly or
carclessIy cxpectorates.
When you are near such a person
protect yourself by placing your hand
kerchief over your mouth and nose.
When you cough or sneeze. whether
sick or well. protect your neighhor by
covering your own mouth and nose.
Avoid crowds and stay out In the
open air as much as possible. Stay
away from poorly ventilated places.
such as moving picture theaters and
crowded cars. Don't visit your neigh
Dor with IA contagious disease unless
your services are needed. IL you do
20, take proper precautions not to In
hale the germ. and wash your hands
after touching the patient or anything
belonging to him.
Get plenty of sleep: keep your bed
room windows wide open, but don't
let your body get chilled. Use extra
covering when necessary. Ignorance
and carelessness can spoil the best
living conditions. and sometimes,
even in the country, fresh air and sun
shine are excluded from sleeping and
living rooms. Keep the living room
well ventilated and not too warm.
Never use common drinking cups,
common towels, powder puffs belonging
to someone else, and, above all, keep
the hands clean. II is lardly pos
of keeping the hands clean.
The human hand is great carrier
of disease germs both to and from
the body. II unclean hands could be
kept away from the mouth especially
and washed before touching food,
have no doubt that many diseases
might be avoided.
These measures are the purely me
chanical means of preventing the
spread of contagion. 1t is reassuring
to know, however. that a really well
person is in little danger Of contract
ing contagious disease. II he OBJ
serves reasonable precautions.
A rundown condition, either from
overwork or worry. is dangerous be-
cause such a person more easily con-
tracts disease.
To stay well keep your body clean ;
use water and soap frequently; change
your clothes often. and wear wraps
suitable to the weather.
Don't take baths that are either too
hot or too cold. Warm baths are the
best. Don't eat too much food. but
drink plenty Of water-at least three
pints a day.
If you are unable to be out Of doors
part of the day open the windows from
time to time and breathe good fresh
air into yor- lungs.
Observance of these few simple
rules will lessen the danger of con.
tracing disease.
