Vacation Sightseeing
Prize Contribution
By Mary Frances Devlin, 8
St. Jossph's School


During the summer. we took trip
around the countryside. And on our
way we stopped at the home OF
James Whitcomb Riley, in Green
field, Ind.
1t was quite a lovely place. 1t had
an enormous back yard with trees
which bear many fruits. It had an
d-fashioned pump. Two walks led
out to the back yard on either side
of the house. We peeked in the win
dow and saw a tiny cradle. James
Whitcomb Riley must have rocked
in this cradle when he was baby.
There was q sign to tell every
body that James Whitcomb Riley
lay under the trees when he was a
boy, writing poems. There was an
archway that ran q little way across
the back yard. passed under it and
the rustic Of the leaves sounded
very pretty, indeed.
When I study about James Whit
comb Riley in school it will be a
more interesting subject for me.

Veterans Guide
By Maj. Thomos M. Nioi

This is another insurance column.
When you convert your term in
surance to a permanent form you
Immediately start building up a
cash value" on your policy. That
means after you start paying the
new premium (the higher premium
for one of the permanent forms of
NSLD you are putting in some
money that you can get Quits
legally yours, after you have paid
the premiums for. one year.
I mean you can stop paying pre-
miums after, say, three years and
cash in" your policy. OF course,
by doing that you won't have any
insurance left, but you can get a
certain amount of cash for 1t. This
is called the cash value.
For example, when Joe felt the
draft in 1912, just after Pearl Har-
Dor, he bought $4,000 of term" in
surance. He was 81 at the time.
This year, Joe converted that term"
insurance to 20-payment life, Twen-
ty-pay is one of the most expensive
forms of permanent NSLI there is,
but Joe has good job and feels
that he can afford it.
Cash Value Of Policy.
Next year at this time-one year
after he converted-his insurance
policy will have a cash value of
$17.81 per $1,000 Of insurance. Since
he has the full ten grand, the cash
value will be $178.10.
Certainly no veteran who has con-
verted his term" insurance and
looks upon it as good long-term
investment wants to cash it for this
amount of money and lose his in
surance.
But-if something unexpected
should happen and Joe should find
himself without enough income even
to consider keeping up the premiums
on his insurance, then he could
cash it in and receive $178.10.
Joe couldn't do this until the end
of the first policy year of the con-
verted insurance.
During that first year, Joe will pay
premiums amounting to $21.20 a
month. That comes to $254.40 for
the year. So Joe would lose $3.50
on the deal. The $3.50 is what Joe
was charged for having his life pro-
tected during that year. The rest
he can get back, the $17810. But
once he cashes in his policy there
b no more insurance.

The Last Laugh
By Mary Seymour, Is

Eostern High School
The days of being a ninth-grade
senior, oh SO bold,
And the rockies admiration-like
fair ladies for knights of old
Are all past, and now you begin
Being a rookie all over again.
Now you have a more educated
name.
A sophomore, you're called-but
before you came
There were others who held your
lowly place:
All! But now they're juniors, 30
they laugh in your face.
Don't feel so bad, though; you'll
have a chance
To feel real important and strut
and prance.
You are now in semester three
Some day you'll be a junior-just
like me!

If Joe didn't have to cash in his
insurance until the end of the Sec
ond policy year? The cash value
would be $36240. At the end of the
fifth policy year the cash value
would be s954.90. At the end of 10
years it would be $2,089.50.
That's the story on cash values
I'm just telling about this deal to
show you that if you convert your
insurance and start paying in
creased premiums, part of the money
you pay belongs to you. It doesn't
all go down the drain, the way 1t
did in term" insurance. That's why
term" insurance is so cheap. 1t has
no cash value. It's just protection
not investment.
Next on the program is borrowing
money on your NSLI. The amount
of money you can borrow depends
entirely on the cash value which
your policy has built up.
You can borrow up to "a per cent
of the cash value of your converted
insurance after the end of the first
policy year. You can't borrow on
term" insurance.
Questions Answered.
Question from F. p, New Orleans
"I received a $65 check from the
Veterans Administration for SUBJ
sistence allowance. I don't rate the
money, because I quit school before
the first day of the period covered
by the check. What should do?'
Better return that check to your
regional VA office, with an explana-
ton. Sooner or later the VA will
discover it's error. If you keep and
spend the money you may not have
the $65 handy when the VA gets
around to asking you for it.
From T. S. c., Raleigh: "How
can I get my $4,000 loan under the
CT bill?"
Here's how. The CT bill says the
Government will guarantee part OF
any home, business or farm loan
you can get from any private lend
ing agency. The Government itself
makes no loans under the CT bill
If you can get your loan (any
amount) from lending agency and
the Veterans Administration ap-
proves it, the Government will guar
antee so per cent Of it. But the top
guarantee is $1,000 0or business
loans) and $4,000 (for home OF farm
loans). The idea is that the guar
antee makes it easier for us veterans
to get a loan. It gives US added Sc

George Washington High SCHOOL,
Use your head instead of your feet
Look both ways before crossing g
street:
Stay on the right and watch the
light,
And when walking in the dark, wear
something white.
Never leave toys lying around,
If you want your family safe and
sound.
To this, all drivers should take heed
Take twice the precaution, half the
speed;
And remember, whether at work or

Always be careful every day.
