A a private my pay is $30 and I have been promoted to the grade of first class which brings $3 more a month. That gives me $33 a month at the present time, and the future looks bright for me as I will be able to advance higher and therefore raise my pay still higher, but it will take time, lhis raise in pay is only as long as the war lasts.
