The present rate of Interest is jive per cent , per annum , and this rate will continue to be paid so long as the Assurance department finds the same safe and profitable employment for money . Interest payable half-yearly in January and July . Money intended for Investment ia received daily between tho hours oi" 10 and 4 o ' clock , at the Offices of . the Association .
