MARCH 27 1937 PACE 7 would soon be insured tor nearly Two Hundred and Fifty Thousand instead of the original Eighty Thous­and ’Dollars. The only rea­son why 'I do not say Three Hundred and Fifty is be­cause 1 appreciate the fact that many of the one hund­red are either too old or tóó unhealthy to consider more protection * and of course there are .always at least a few whose lives are not even worth a measly nickel, or 5 cent piece, ■ and they could most appropriately stand in front of a Woolworth or some other 5 and 10 cent store, place a dime under their right foot, and exclaim las they lifted their left foot up into the air. “NOTHING OVER TEN CENTS”. I only wish that I possessed the ability to say something jor do anything to thorough­ly arouse some of our most indifferent Verhovay mem­bers out of their prolonged lethargy, and inform them that they can now obtain just as good (if not better) Limited Payment Life and Endowment Insurance from Verhovay as they could ob­tain elsewhere. DonT wait for some smooth talking salesman to obtain your ap­plication for his more costly line of insurance and by all means be most careful that you don’t allow yourself to be hoodwinked by a Step Rate Order that has filed with the state a list of rates of monthly dues which in­crease each year up to the ágé of EIGHTY (80) and have the audacity to show on their membership certifi­cates only the rates up to age sixty-five and on most of their literature they show the rates up to age forty­­four. Quite a few of their members are under the false impression that the rate of dues will not be increased after the member begins to pay at the age of sixty-five. In several of my previous articles I have tried to show how Verhovay’s level prem­ium rates of.dues with the annual dividends that have been paid each year for some time past and the non-for­feiture cash surrender or loan values, are a great deal cheaper in the end than the crazy step rate idea that has been tried in the past by hundreds of societies and in­variably have always been found wanting. VERHO­VAY’S ANNUAL DIVI­DENDS KEEP THE COST OF HER INSUR­ANCE DOWN TO THE MINIMUM AND STILL CARRIES A MAGNIFI­CENT SURPLUS THAT GUARANTEES T U E MAXIMUM SECURITY OF THE PROTECTION GIVEN TO THE VERHO­VAY MEMBERS. In conclusion, let me say that as long as I believe there are 2 or 3 times as many children as there are adults in our Verhovay home's, I will néver admit that the Verhovay member­ship is actually wide awake and alert until the Juvenile membership is -at least one­­hali the total for both de­partments. If you are top old. too unhealthy, or too crabbed, mean or stingy to have 'your insurance protec­tion' increased, you might at least give your child or grandchild a break and make him Or her (arid them) a member (members) of Ver­­hovay Fraternal Insurance Association.- You can ar­range to pay the dues until the child is in position to as­sume* that. responsibility and as the premium payjng bene­ficiary, you have complete control of the certificate un­til the child reaches the age of sixteen. If you obtain a Whole Life or Endow­ment Certificate for the child you have the option of selecting a Loan Option or even a Cash Surrender Op­tion provided the child is not yet sixteen years of age at which time the child takes control of the certificate. It is my most Fumble opinion that the future suc­cess of any reliable fraternal beneficial association de­pends a very great deal upon the way in which the juven­ile department is handled. When we consider the high rate of premiums paid to the insurance companies’ week­ly cólectors and also the fact that Verhovay does not lim­it her membership to any church, political party, na­tionality, or language you have every opportunity to insure all the healthy white children ( and adults for that matter) in your entire neighborhood, vicinity and district. If you want to earn a little pin money while you are still attending gchőbl, be­gin at once to obtain mem­bers for Verhovay. If you are too old to get employ­ment elsewhere, begin to ob­tain members for Verhovay and if you send in a sufficient number of applications, no doubt you will be able to make some kind of an ar­rangement that will assure you an income for a number of years to come. Therefore I adjure you as a loyal Ver­hovay member to build up and strengthen your Juven­ile Branches without any further delay. The twenty­­five who sail on the Europa in July have been loyal Third ClaSs Passengers who have been doing the pushing and shoving On to a victor­ious goal. They will soon be doing the riding and al­low1 others to do the work of the Thorough-breds who give all they have to the Or­ganization. HURRY, HURRY and HURRY to make Verhovay BETTER, STRONGER and SAFER for her entire membership. S. Horner Wood ACTUARY *VfrhövöYQk Jhpjo THE FISHERS’ BASTION. One of the most beautiful and interesting spots in Budapest. It is the crea­tion of Miklós Ybl, one of the greatest Hungarian architects. The Fishers’ Bastion is a section of the fortress of Buda and the fishermen used to defend it in ease of an enemy attack. Juvenile Order Monthly Report FEBRUARY, 1937 Number of members ón February 28, 1737__ 10,784 increase 85 SHORT, BUT TO THE POINT A Japanese insurance agent famous for many applications but few words, once made a speech. He told in three-quarters of a minute how he did it. “I go out into country in my car”, he said. “I sée Ja­panese boy in field. I say, ‘‘Come here.” I say, “You carry life insurance policy?” He say, “No.” I say, "You damfool, sign’.”—(Deputy- Chat.) Nothing is of more value in selling than the conviction that life insurance is the best all-around investment. Do you really believe this? THEIR NEED—NOT HIS When a prospect says, ‘T lave áll the life insurance I íeed,” he is evading the ssue. The point is not how uuch insurance he needs, lilt how much his family would need if he died mddenly. The average man, vhen he is brought face to ace with the realty, will tsually find it necessary to •evise his estimation of vhat is e-nought. In February we had 272 new members.
