their discharge or resignation. II the
disability resulting from the injury or
disease contracted in the service does
not occur before one year after dis

zeal evidence after one year after your

have been obtained from the Director
of the Bureau, within the year from
the date of your discharge in order
that the government may pay you, or
your dependents"

disease while in the service, even
though the injury or disease was of a
minor character, be sure to apply for
a certificate of injury before one year
after the date of your discharge or
resignation, in order to protect your
self and you dependents. Act now.
"Do not fail TO get this certificate if
you sustained injury or disease in the
service which, even though it may not
bother you now, may become aggra-
waited hereafter Apply to the nearest
