The Greatest Bonus (Good) for our veterans is a STEADY JOB

Veteran Ad, Job, American Legion

Magazine advertisement promoting that the Greatest Bonus ("Good") for veterans is a steady job. This 1922 ad is from the pro-veteran American Legion Employment Bureau, which started following WW1. The ad suggests the idea of a steady job was uncommon at the time, but insists the American Legion Employment Bureau can provide one. As an organization that derives its origin from veterans, they want to ensure veterans themselves are employed.

ID: An piece of a paper magazine used for an ad which pushes for the best bonus for veterans being a steady job which may be hard to find but the American legion says they can. There’s a board drawing to the left which has Latin above and below that is Bonus equals good in reference to jobs. Lastly, there is a text below the ad which goes into depth about how the Kansas city legion helps the jobless-man's plight.
