The father of the dead man, O. A. Turpin, Uvea at Pilot, The case of Turpin is interesting as Illustrating the workings of the war Insurance act. As he was not In the military service at the time of death, dependents whom he might have had would not have been entitled to relief. Had he 'been, however, a dependent wife, child, or widowed mother would have been entitled to $26 monthly under the automatic Insurance provision of the act.

This automatlo feature expires on February 12, the last day for taking out insurance. It is not generally understodo that war Insurance may be continued In force after tho closo of the War by merely continuing the monthly payments. This, howevor, Is the case, and should be generally known. For this reason, had Turpin carried any Insurance taken out by himself, or had he even made application for any, this would have been in force, In spite of the fact that he was a civilian at the time of death, it was learned last night that he hod no Insurance, Another death took place yesterday at Camp flavier, The dead man was Hergt.
