BAN BONUS
By THE BONUS EDITOR

By The bONUS EDAIOk
World War veterans who were
dishonorably discharged during
their war time service or enlist
ment are usually not eligible for
the bonus. ..r
This fact answers questions
from many readers Of The Wash
ington Times who have written
the Bonus Editor for informa-
ton.
In some cases, the questioner
has actually been eligible, even
though "cashiered" from one OF
the military branches Of Uncle
Sans defenseS.
An instance is that Of a soldier
who enlisted early in 1917, and
was honorably discharged in 1919.
Had No Effect
Shortly afterward he reenlisted,
serving for few months until he
was dishonorably discharged for a
serious infraction of Army rules.
Because he was honorably dis
charged from his wartime en-
listment-the period of service for
which soldiers, sailors and marines
are to be repaid by the bonus
the questioner can obtain his
''baby bonds" His later dishonor.
able discharge did not affect his
war.tims record.
If he had been dishonorably
discharged from the wartime en-
liStment, however, he would in all
probability be ineligible.
Another queStioner revealed he
had entered the Marine Corps
shortly before the armiStice, and
had been courtmartialed within
a few weeks on grave charges.
He asked if his application for an
adjusted service certificate would
be honored. ....
The answer, of course, is an en-
phatic mo"

Hutton Act
Is Tornado
For Earle
Al Jolson's Musical
Film Offers Fine
Entertainment.

INA RAY HUTTON and "Truckin'
took the Earle by storm yesterday
afternoon. The audience, which jam
med the theater almost to overflow
ing, practically tore down the chande-
liers in the clamor for more, when
the blond bombshell steered her girls
into last years Harlem anthem, re-
verted to her style of old, wherein
she leads the band with everything
but the baton, and tossed of bit OF
Harlem dancing. Ina Ray did encores
until she was ready to drop, and
then the show went on
After the Hutton version of
"Truckin'," and before for that
matter, the Earle,s stage show is fine
entertainment. The Hutton band can
play hot, sweet or blue, though the
girls are at their best with some
thing torrid or with something deep
indigo, like "Tormented," but all of
the time they're good. Also present
is Jack Pepper, who sings a little
and clowns successfully, with con-
siderable help from that little blond
girl. There's fun, too, from a trio
Of girls who sing and a young lady
who does limitations.
You probably have to like Al Jolson
before you can go into a complete rave
over the Earle's screen attraction,
The Singing Kid" but even if you
are one of those citizens who feel that
Herr Jolson should hunt up that
nanny he's been shouting about all
these years and sing his songs to her
and her alone, there still is plenty of
f1rst-rate entertainment in his latest
musical cinema.
The Singing Kid" is thoroughly
entertaining from beginning to end,
principally because Mr.. Jolson and the
story do not intrude too much to
interfere with the progress of bright
revue. If you're a Jolson fan, you
won't even mind the fact that the
little tale seems designed to show the
world that prince of fellow and a
man among men Mr.. Jolson is, telling
as it does the story Of one Al Jackson,
who gave away cash with abandon,
and was much too trusting for his
own good. losing his girl and getting
into difficulties with the income tax
people.
Entertainment in large amounts is
supplied. however, by Edward Ever
EFT Horton and Allen jenkins, who
practically steal the film with their
comedy sequences; the Yacht Club
Boys, who do two topping musical
numbers and who ought to become
favorites with movie fans before long;
Cab Galloway and his orchestra, who
contribute a few typical Galloway
numbers in fine fashion, and Mitchell
and Durant, who do Just the right
amount Of their particular brand of
comedy.
Wini Shaw also is present, to sing
one song, in blackface, and there are
some well-staged dance numbers and
songs with swing" HIM.

THE Joy of Little Lord Fauntleroy"
- is its simplicity and its memories
of things past. The story of the little
boy from Brooklyn, who becomes an
English lord is hardly the sort of stuff
out of which most modern movies are
made. That it stands up in this
torrid era is due entirely to the un-
derstanding of the producers and the
actors-all of whom have entered into
its quaint WITNESSES with full heart.
No character is overplayed, in fact,
some of them are a mite underplayed.
Hobbies could have been a fantastic
boulevard grocer, bristling with Brook
lyn slang and sloppily sentimental all
over the place. The Apple Woman
could have gone into fits of tears and
had a palace over her rheumatic old
bones rather than simple canvas.
Dick, the bootblack, could have
emerged as a horrid show-off. And
the grouchy old grandfather could
have coughed and sputtered and be-
haved like villain in Uncle Toms
Cabin"
Instead, each person is quiet and
restrained and rather fine. Dolores
