You Run
No Risk
in Joining the LOYAL ORDER OF MOOSE OF THE WORLD on the
charter of Valdez Lodge No. 1427, because you can transfer to any other
lodge at any time, can take out a w ithdrawal card or a Supreme Lodge
card in case No. 1427 becomes defunct. But as long as ten members
desire to retain the charter it cannot be forfeited. So once a Moose,
always a Moose. The 8upreme Lodge, with a fat treasury, stands back
of every subordinate lodge, and in. cates of fatal disasters or epidemics
extends unlimited relief the afflicted lodges immediately without the un
winding of any red tape or assessment of the membership. The minute
you take the oath of a Loyal Moose one million members stand ready to
protect the honor of your home, aid you in sickness and distress, give
your children a free vocational training and yourself and wife care In
old age. A correspondence course will soon be available to the member
ship and a period at each meeting devoted to study. Competent Instruct
ors will visit each lodge frequently to better aid the Loyal Moose along
the paths of progress.
The Mooseheart governors are searching Arizona for the best avail
able site for a sanitarium, where all members stricken with the white
plague will be taken and cured. .And the cost of all this is only $13.00
per year. You oannot afford to ove rlook the advantage 'of being one of
a million members In the LOYAL O RDER OF MOOSE OF THE WORLD,
an order that now ranke only second among beneficial fraternities, and
In less than two years will be the largest and greatest In the world.

BOMB INSURANCE
SOARS IN LONDON
Residents, Including Some Well Known
Americans, Swamp Lloyd's With
Applications for Policies.
LONDON, Nov. 3.—Some well
known Americans in London are
among those who have obtained in
surance against bombs. One of tbe
properties thus insured is the office
of the American Society, and a resi
dent American said today that sever
al American women of title were
known to have taken out policies.
There was such a rush today for
insurance against bombs that the
rates at Lloyd’s took a decided up
ward turn, being the highest for risks
near the houses of Parliament, Buck
ingham Palace, the Mansion House,
the Bank of England, Saint Paul's
Cathedral and the railroad stations.
Around such places the rate is from
live shillings ($1.25) to seven shill
ings and sixpence ($1.87), and even
ten shillings ($2.50) in some locali
ties. The rate has been two shill
ings and six pence (62 1-2 cents) per
cent.
One well-known broker said yester
day:
■ we nave Deen swamped touaywitn
requests for insuring houses against
bombs; consequently the rate took a
decided jump. It was natural that in
some districts it should be higher
than in others, because certain build
ings are considered objective points
for tlie Germans’ attack should they
invade this country.”
The so-called airship clause of the
policies reads as follows:
"This policy is to cover risk of loss
of and (or) damage to the property
hereby insured directly caused by
aerial craft, hostile or otherwise, in
cluding bombs and (or) missiles
dropped or thrown therefrom, includ
ing risk of fire and (or) explosions
directly caused thereby.”
One firm in Oxford street is said
to have a policy for $750,000 on its
premises and contents tit five shill
ings ($1.25) per cent.
An official of one of the great in
surance companies here said today:
"Several large insurance compan
ies decided to write no policies
against damage by bombs. They took
such a step after considerable delib
eration. They are of the opinion that
in the event of a real invasion by
the Germans there would be a great
chance that it would be impossible
to pay claims.”
Another.question considered by the
principal companies was the possibil
ity of heavy loss on such policies, in
view of which they were unwilling to
make other policyholders share such
responsibility.
It’s an ill wind that blows nobody
good; Hie Zeppelin scare is filling the
purses of the IJoyds underwriters,
who have suffered unprecedented sea
losses In the last few years.
Let George Do It.

ator. He is a miner-merchant, will
