Big Insurance Benefit Offered SUN Readers

£SOO SCHEME LAUNCHED TO-DAY

FREE TO ALL SUN SUBSCRIBERS

SPEED is the order of the day. In the pursuit of our ordinary work, our social duties and the enjoyment of recreation we are cracking on the pace. Life is a race against time, and the faster the pace the greater the risk to life and limb.

The days when we walked miles to work because there were no trams are gone for ever. The easy times when a b u KRy ride was the riskiest known means of journeying at the dizzy rate of 10 miles an hour on a country road are but a njemory. Never a day passes without its crash in the traffic of the busy street.

Even the most careful individual cannot take precautions against skidding motor-cars, reckless drivers, and errors of judgment on the part of those in control of trains, ferries, omnibuses and other means of transport. Things happen so quickly that often there is no time to jump for safety, and it is too late to take out an insurance policy when the ambulance is on its way to the hospital or morgue with the victim of a street accident. Few persons are so well off that an accident involving disablement or death spells no inconvenience financially to their dependants. To the vast majority it means loss, hardship and perhaps poverty for innocent persons, whose breadwinner lias been cut off in his prime.

SUN offers its readers a substantial measure of protection, free gratis and for nothing against the risks of injury or death by accidents. The sum of £SOO will be paid in the case of death by railway accident and £250 in the event of death from accident to tram, ferry, motor-bus or taxi. The conditions are set out at length in another column (see page 5) and

all the reader requires to do is to fill in the coupon and place his name on our Free Insurance Register. The present offer is the most liberal ever placed at the disposal of the readers of a newspaper in this country, and will appeal to all classes of the community. Delay is dangerous.
