Discharged soldiers, sailors and marines who have dropped or cancelled their insurance may reinstate it within 18 months after discharge without paying the back premiums. All they will be asked to pay will be the premium on the amount of insurance to be reinstated for the month of grace in which they were covered and for the current month...
...example, if a man dropped $10,000 of insurance in January, 1919, and applies for reinstatement the 1st of October for $5000, all he will have to pay will be the premium for January (the month of grace) on $5000, and the premium for October on $5000. In case he desires to reinstate the entire amount that he formerly carried, $10,000, his premium payments will be the January and October premiums upon $10,000. He will not have to pay premiums in either case for the intervening months...

War time generosity has its advantages; peace time must bring a curtailment of all expenditures. We cannot fool ourselves into believing that the money does not come from our pockets; liberality takes on another aspect when it means...
Almost every student in the University knows to his inconvenience that the subway entrance in front of the Waldori is now closed, despite the fact that it is prominently labelled "To Boston." Now that we have to pay a dime for an eight minute ride to town, we ought at least to have the facilities offered by the former nickel fare. Moreover, I am sure that residents in the vicinity will appreciate action by the students to have the entrance reopened. Can't we get in touch with 131 Milk street and have our needed accommodations restored? HAROLD W. CONNOLLY...
