become payable at the death of a contributor should not be delayed
until such death has actually occurred: but a register should be kept
in which full particulars respecting each contributor should be entered,
and in this register should be recorded against every married or
widowed contributor the amount of the pension which would become
payable should he die immediately, leaving a widow or orphans
entitled to such pension. The amount of the pension per annum so
entered in the register against a contributor, or in other words his
'registered pension' , should be calculated (and recalculated as often
as may be necessary) in accordance with the following rules:
A.-OFFICER WHO COMMENCED TO CONTRIBUTE WHILE A BACHELOR
OR WHILE A WIDOWER WITHOUT ANY CHILD OF
PENSIONABLE AGE.
Note.-1. In this section (A)-
(a) ---First wife ' in the case of an officer who com-
menced to contribute while a widower without any child of
pensionable age means the first wife married by such officer
after his commencing to contribute;
(b) 'Marriage' in the case of an officer who commenced
to contribute while a widower without any child of pension-
able age means the first marriage of such officer after his
commencing to contribute.
2. No registered pension is to be recorded unless. and until the contributor

(A) Pension in consideration of the contributions paid before
marriage age.
RULE I (a)- Accumulate the contributions at 8 per cent compound
interest, with yearly rests at each 31st December, and multiply the result
by the quantity found from Table A corresponding to the respective ages
next birthday of the husband and wife at the date of marriage.
The product gives the registered pension on account of the

Note-The amount of the current annual contribution is obtained by multiplying
by 12 the amount of the last monthly contribution.

tains in the heading the age of the husband at the date of
completion of his period of contribution; and multiply the amount of the

wife at the date of marriage.

contribution current at the date of marriage.

Total ..................$ 235.47
(c) Variations of pension consequent on increments to, and
decrements from, the current annual contribution while
the contributor is married to his first wife.
Note.-The cessation of the contribution from any cause before
the completion of the full period of contribution must be regarded as
a decrement from the current annual contribution equal to the amount
of such current annual contribution.
RULE I (c)-Turn to the section of Table B which con-
tains in the heading the age of the husband at the date of
completion of his period of contribution; and multiply the
amount of the increment to, or the decrement from, the
current annual contribution by the quantity found from that
section corresponding Ao the respective ages next birthday
of the husband and wife at the date of the variation of the
contribution.
The product gives the amount to be added to the regis-
tered pension consequent on the increment to the current
annual contribution, or as the case may be, the amount to
be deducted from the registered pension consequent on the
decrement from the current annual contribution.

II.-SECOND, AND SUBSEQUENT, WIFE'S PROSPECTIVE PENSION.
(A) Variations of pension consequent on increments to, and
diecrelnents from, the curTent annual contribution while
the contributor is a widower.
RULE II (a)-Assume that the contributor is married to
a wife of the age that his last preceding wife would have
been had she survived to the date of the variation of the
contribution, and pr6ceed in accordance with Rule I. (c).
Example
of the application, of Rule II (a).
If the particulars be as in the example subjoined to Rule 1 (c),
except thot the first wife, who was born on 31st August,
1888, died on 30th November, 1908, it would be assumed
that the contributor was at the date of each of the three
variations of the contribution married to a wife who was born
on 31st August, 1888. The calculations will then be identical
with those given in the example subjoined to Rule 1 (c).
(B) Variations of pension consequent on the remarriage of the
contributor.
Note------No variation of the registered pension is to be recorded
if the second, or subsequent, wife was at the date of the remarriage
of the same age next birthday as the last preceding wife would have
been had she survived to that date.
RULE II (b)-If the second, or subsequent, wife was at
the date of the remarriage of a less or greater age next
birthday than the last preceding wife would have been had
she survived to that date, multiply the amount of the
registered pension by the quantity found from Table C
corresponding tothe age next birthday of the husband at the
date of remarriage, and the age next birthday which the
last preceding wife would have attained had she survived to
that date; multiply the product so obtained by the quantity
found from Table A corresponding to the respective ages of
the husband and of the second, or subsequent, wife at the
date of the remarriage.
The result gives the registered pension to be recorded on the
remarriage of the contributor.
Example
of the application of Rule II (b)-
Assume particulars as in the example subjoined to Rules I (a)
and I (b).
First wife died on ... ....30th November, 1908.
Contributor remarried on .. 31st January, 1913.
Contributor's age next birthday at date
of remarriage................ 35.
Second wife born on ............... 30th June, 1893.
Second wife's age next birthday at date
of the remarriage........................ 20.
Age next birthday which the first wife
would have attained had she
suivived to date of the remarriage 25.
31st January, 1913.-The, second wife being of a less age,next
birthday at the date of the remarriage than the first wife would,have
been had she survived, the registered pension $235.47 [see example
subjoined to Rules I (a) and I (b)] is to be recalculated.
Quantity found from Table C-
Husband ............35 2074
Wife ..................25
Quantity found from Table A-
Husband ............. 35 .482
Wife.......................................... 20
$285.47 x 2.074 = $488.36.
$488.36 x .462= $226.62 =registered pension at 31st January,
1913.
(c). Variations of pension consequent on incfements to, and
decrements from, the current annual contribution while
the contributor is married to his second, or subsequent,
wift.
RULE II (c)-Proceed as in Rule I (c).
B.-OFFICER WHO COMMENCED TO CONTRIBUTE WHILE MARRIED.
IIL-FIRST WIFE'S PROSPECTIVE PENSION.
Note.-In every case of an officer who com menced to contribute,
while married, the wife at the date of commencement of the contribu-
tion is to be considered as the officer's first wife,. and no particulars
are to be recorded respecting any former wife to whom he may have
been married, unless there is issue of such former wife of a pension-
able age (see D-PENSIONS TO ORPHAN CHILDREN).
(A).Pension in consideration of the annual contribution current
at the date of commencement of the contribution.
RULE III (a)-Turn to the section of Table B which
contains in the heading the age of the husband at the date
of completion of his period of contribution; and multiply the
amount of the current annual contribution by the quantity
found from that section corresponding to the respective ages
next birthday of the husband and wife at the date ot com-
mencement of the contribution.
The product gives the registered pension on account of the annual
contribution current at the date of commencement of the contribution.
Example
of the application o f Rule III (a).
Officer born on 31st August 1870.
Officer married on ........30th June, 1899,
Officer commenced to contribute on 31st July, 1910.

C.-OFFICER WHO COMMENCED TO CONTRIBUTE WHILE A WIDOWER
WITH A CHILD OR CHILDREN OF PENSIONABLE AOB.
V.-SECOND, AND SUBSEQUENT, WIFE'S PROSPECTIVE PENSION.
RULE V-For the purpose of calculating the registered
pension assume that the deceased wife survived to the date
of commencement of the contribution and died immediately
afterwards; then proceed in accordance with the rules
applicable to the case of officers who commenced to con-
tribute while married (see B).
D-PENSIONS TO ORPHAN CHILDREN.
Regulated by sections 19, 20, 22, 28 and 26 of the Ordinance.
E-OFFICER TRANSFERRED TO TTIE SERVICE OF ANOTHER COLONY.
Throughout these rules and examples the calculations depend,
not on the official income of the contributor, but on the amount of
his contribution so that the transfer of an officer to another service
does not affect his registered pension unless the amount of his current
annual contribution is varied, in which case the proper Adjustment is
to be made in accordance with the preceding rules.
F-CALCULATION OF QUANTITIES (OR TABULAR RESULTS)
FOR AGES NOT GIVEN IN THE TABLES.
TABLE A-The quantities are given for every age of the husband
from 15 to 64; and for every fifth age of the wife from 15 to 65. Ages
of husbands and wives below or beyond are to be treated as the
youngest, and oldest ages given respectively.
For the intermediate ages of wives, interpolate by the first
differences, as follows-
To find the quantity corresponding to the ages of a husband and
wife aged respectively 85 and 27 next birthday-
The quantity for ages 35 And 25, given in the Table is .482.
The quantity for ages 35 and 30 given in the Table is .507.
So that the addition of five years to the age of the wife results
in an addition of .025 to the quantity given in the Table for
ages 35 and 25.
An addition of two years to the age of the wife accordingly results
by proportion in an addition of two-fifths of .025 to the
quantity oivdn in the Table for ages 85 and 25.
Two-fifths of .025=.01, which added to .482 gives .492 which is
the required quantity corresponding to ages 35 land 27
TABLE B.-This Table is divided into eleven sections, respec-
tively applicable to officers who will be aged next birthday 55, 56,
57 . . . up to 65, when they complete their period of contribution.
Care should in all cases be taken to turn to the section which contains
in the heading the age of the husband at the date of completion
of his period of contribution.
In each section the quantities are given for 35 consecutive ages
of the husband, terminating at the age preceding that at which the
contribution ceases, and for every fifth age of the wife from 15 to 65.
Ages of the wife below or beyond are to be treated as the youngest
and oldest ages given, respectively. For the intermediate ages of
wives interpolate by first differences as explained above. Thus, the
quantity found from the first section of the Table (age 55) correspond-
ing to the ages of a husband and wife aged respectively 45 and 38.
next birthday is three-fifths of 18, added to 2.39, which gives 2.50.
For officers who commence to contribute at an eaxlier age than
20 next birthday the method of calculation given in the subjoined
examples is to be followed---
EXAMPLE (1)-An officer aged 17 next birthday, having a
wife aged 15 next birthday, commences to contribute. Assume
that the officer is aged 20 next birthday, so that the quantity
found from Table B will be 8.30.
This officer receives an increment of salary at age 22 next
birthday, when his wife's age is 20. Assume that his age is 25 next
birthday i.e. his actual age 22, plus the difrerence between his
actual age at entry and 20, which is three years. The quantity found
from Table B will be 7.00.
EXAMPLE (2)-An officer aged 19 next birthday commences to
contribute as a bachelor and five years later, when aged 24 next
birthday--- marries, his wife's age being 20 next birthday. The
quantity found from Table A in accordance with Rule I (a) will
be taken for the actual ages (husband 24 and wife 20) and will
be 683. With respect to the current annual contribution at
marriage, assume that the officer's age is 25 (his actual age plus
one) so that the quantity from Table B will be 7.00.
This officer receives an ineriefflent of salary when aged 39, when
his wife's age is 35. Assume as before that the ages are 40 and 35
respectively, so that the quantity found from Table B will be 3.61:
Note.-It will be observed that this method takes account of the
actual number of years for which the annual contfibution will run.
In example (1), when the officer receives the increment of salary at
age 22 he has contributed for five years, so that at the expiration of
80 yearshis contributions will cease. Similarly, in example (2), when
the officer marries at age 24, he also has contributed for five years,
so that although he is two years older than the officer in example (1),
yet the unexpired period of contribution is the same in each case,
and the wife's age is in each instance 20, so that no important error
is involved in using the same tabular quantity for the two cases.
TABLE C-The quantities are given for the same ages as in Table
A. Ages of husbands and wives below and beyond are to be treated,
as in using that Table.
For the intermediate ages of wives interpolate by first diflerences
as explained above, except that it must be noted that in this Table
an addition to the age of the wife results in a deduction from the
quantity given in the Table.
To find the quantity corresponding to the ages, of a husband and
wife aged respectively 35 and 27 next birthday-
The quantity for ages 35 and 25 given in the Table is ... 2.074
The quantity for ages 35 and 30 given in the Table is ... 1.974
So that the addition of five years to the age of the wife results
in a deduction of 100 from the quantity given in the Table for ages
35 and 25.
An addition of two years to the ago of the wife accordingly results
by proportion in a deduction of two fifths of 100 from the quantity
given in the Table for ages 35 and 27.
Two-fifths of .100=.04, which deducted from 2.074 leaves 2.084,
which is the required quantity corresponding to ages 85 and 27.
