Attention Veterans, If you served ninety days or more in the Spanish-American War, the China Relief Expedition, or in the Philippines prior to July 4, 1902, you will be interested to know Congress has passed a Pen sion Law of vital interest to you. This law contains two provisions; Ist, it allows pensions to all ex soldiers, sailors and marines with the above service record who were honorably discharged and are now over sixty-two years of age; 2nd, it allows pensions to those who are at present materially disabled from'earning their living by manu al labor from disease, if the disa bility be not the result of their own misconduct. Such disability must be permanent but need not fie total. It need not be the result of military service. The soldier does not have to be sixty-two years old to claim on disability. The The amount of pension depends upon the degree of disability and ranges from $12.00 to $30.00 per month. Widows of veterans are also allowed pensions. If you wish advice about this law write Walter S. Buchanan, Past National Aid de-Camp, Army and Navy Union, Route 2, Louisa, Virgina. Prompt action is desir able, as a pension if allowed begins from the filing of the claim. Mr. Buchanan, himself a Spanish War Veteran, desires to assist his comrades in every possible way to secure any pensions to which they may be entitled under this law. Write him for advice giving him your service record, and enclosing stamp for reply. B. Y. P. U. Program. Group No. 1 in charge. Subject: The sermon on the Mo u fit. Scripture, Matt. 7.
