the shadows and sees far over the valleys

life, a true man among men. God bless
the good mothers whose loving service
and sacrifice help ensure the world strong,

SIXTY DOLLARS BONUS
To Be Paid to Soldiers Dis
charged Since April 6, 1917

Section 1406 of the Revenue Act APP
proved February "a, 1919 authorizes the
payment of bonus of $4,000 to officers,
soldiers, field clerks and nurses of the
Army upon honorable separation from &C
tive service by discharge, resignation or
otherwise. This bonus is not payable to
the heirs or Representatives of any de-
ceased soldier.
Those who are discharged hereafter will
receive this bonus on the same roll or
voucher upon which they are paid their
final pay.
Those who have been discharged and
have received their final pay without the
$50 90 bonus, should write letter to the
Zone Finance Officer, Lemon Building,
Washington, d. c., stating their service
since April 6, 1917, the date of last dis
charge and their present address to which
they desire their bonus checks to be sent
and enclosing with this letter their dis
charge certificate or military order for
discharge and both, if both wereissued.
Upon the receipt by the Zone Finance
officer, Washington, ID. c., of this infor-
nation and the soldiers discharge certif-
cate, this officer will cause checks to be
drawn and mailed to the claimants in the
order IN which their claims were received
by him. The discharge certificate will be
returned to the soldier with the check.
1t is estimated that at least one million
and quarter persons have been discharged
from the service who are entitled to the
benefits Of this act and while payments
will be made as expeditiously as practi-
cable, it will manifestly take considerable
time to write and mail this many checks.
