SOLDIERS AND
!. SAILORS NOTICE

IN connection with the additional
sum of $50 to be paid by the govern
ment to each of you, it comes to my
attention that many Of the discharge
papers have been lying in the war De-
partment for six weeks and may be
held up for some time on account Of
the great congestion. There is also
fear upon the part of some as to the
loss Of discharge papers. Because of
this and in. order to avoid delay,
make this suggestion:
Send your discharge papers to me
by registered mail No application is
necessary, but you should give me
your postoffice address. When I will
at once take the discharge paper to
the war department, get your $50
check and then send check and dis
charge paper back to you by register
ed mail inside of "a hours from the
time received. This will insure you
against the loss of your discharge pa
pers and save from six to eight weeks
delay. - .
AS an additional precaution it might
be well to have the discharge papers
recorded in the office of the register of
deeds before sending them to me.
Through the kind and generous CO.
operation of the editor Of this paper
I am enabled to bring this to your at
tention.
Yours sincerely,
