PENSIONS TO ORPHAN CHILDREN.

Regulated by sections 19, 20, 22, 23 and 26 of the Ordinance.

E. OFFICER TRANSFERRED TO THE 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 hus- band 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 differ- ences, as follows:-

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........

The quantity for ages 35 and 30 given in the

Table is.....

.482.

.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 given in the Table for ages 35 and 25. Two-fifths of .025 .01, which added to .482 gives .492 which is the required quantity corresponding to ages

35 and 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 contri- bution. 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.
