POST OFFICE SAVINGS BANKS, WITH GOVERN- 

 MENT SECURITY. 



Advantages Offered for Life Insurance. 



LIFE INSURANCES from ^"5 to £100 can be granted to persons 

 between fourteen and sixty-five years of age. Children between 

 eight and fourteen years of age can be insured for £5. 



Government Security. — Persons insured have direct 

 Government security. 



PROPOSAL Forms can be obtained at any Post Office 

 Savings Bank, where the charges can also be ascertained. 



EVIDENCE OF Age. — A statement of age is sufficient if the 

 Controller of the Savings Bank Department can verify it from 

 the records of the Registrar-General, London, and thus the cost 

 of a certificate of birth is saved. A simple form for the purpose 

 can be obtained at any Post Office Savings Bank. 



Medical Certificates can be dispensed with for Insurances 

 up to £25 inclusive. 



PREMIUMS are payable by transfers from Saving Bank 

 deposit accounts, and deposits can be made for the purpose at 

 any Post Office Savings Bank. When the balance in the 

 account is insufficient, the depositor will be informed accordingly 

 in time to make a deposit. By means of the Penny Stamp 

 Slips the provision can be made in sums of one penny at a 

 time. 



FRIENDLY SOCIETIES. — Members can pay their premiums 

 through their Society, if the Society is willing to undertake the 

 collection. 



RESIDENCE ABROAD. — Permission is granted to persons over 

 thirty years of age, who have been insured five years, to reside 

 in any part of the world without the payment of any extra 

 premium. 



Lapsed Insurances. — Money not Lost.— If after paying 

 two annual premiums the Insurance is discontinued, a surrender 

 value is payable, or a " paid up " policy is issued for such an 

 amount of Insurance as the premiums already paid may justify. 



NOMINATIONS. — Any insured person over sixteen years of 

 age can, without any expense, nominate a person to receive the 

 amount of Insurance money at death. 



PAYMENT AT DEATH. — The amount insured is paid imme- 

 diately evidence of death is furnished. A form for obtaining a 

 cheap certificate of death, at the reduced charge of one shilling, 

 can be obtained from the Controller of the Savings Bank 

 Department.
