WAR RISK INSURANCE
For Soldiers and Sailors Now Enlisted

TUT oOiOlcfS anu 0dliOTS nv" 6HIiStCOs
Notice has just been received that
Congress has extended the time for
filing application for War Risk lnsur-
ance until April II, 1918. The auto
matte insurance feature has ceased en-
tirely and no man is now insured by
the government unless he has made
application. This makes voluntary
application on the party of men in the
service doubly important and every
person dependent on the enlisted men
should bring to bear on those not yet
insured their influence so that they
may avail themselves of this protec-
tive feature of the government
This extension of time by the Gov
eminent opens the opportunity for
every enlisted man to secure this
protection and for those who are
now dependent upon him ample
time to see that every enlisted man
takes out such insurance as is neces
sary.
This matter is called to the atten
ton Of the public so that those who
are without protection and are depen
dent upon any enlisted man now in
service may secure the protection
which is offered by the Government
and application should be made al
once, and for those who anticipate en-
listing this notice should remind them
Of this protective feature and they
should at once as soon as enlistine
make their application for insurance.
Bear in mind this fact that this in
surance feature is not automatic and
In order to secure insurance applica
ton must be made thru the regular
channels
The above article comes from the
Minnesota Commission of Public Safe
ty with request for the greatest pos
sible publicity so that every person
may avail themselves of the splendid
opportunity offered by the Govern
ment
