Kntored at the postoffice in Docatnr, Indiana, as second-class matter. The United States is dry today, that is legally so. In many cities and some towns it is presumed that an old fashioned drink can be pur- 1 chased if you have the price hut gradually this will be checked for it is a violation of a federal law and a few examples will no doubt prevent repeats. Most people scarcely realize yet that the nation is dry and fewexpected to live to see the day when a drink of intoxicating liquor could not be purchased in the United States Those who think that it is only temporary need only remember that each time the constitution has been changed it has required years of work and effort. The dry spell will prove a real drouth. Pour years ago we were being told that the Ralston administration had be n extravagent and that Mr. Goodrich if elected would reduce tit? cost V of operating the public institutions. Now it is announced that the real reason for calling a special session of the legislature is to incr use the appropriations for the various institutions. Os course they peed the money tend the governor no doubt knows now better than he did four years ago that the administration of Ralston and Marshall was not extravgent but on the other hand was economical. A comparison will prove it. The special session of the legislature will be welcomed if it brings with the other acts a repeal of the tax i i law-. If there was ever put on the books an act which has caused such 1 general dissatisfaction, most people | haven’t heard of it. The new law is ( unfair in many ways and the people ‘ are just beginning to find it out to a certainty. They will know- more about it this time next year unless, the special session takes some business like action. The most important thing about the work of the board of review now in session is that they get the new ( valuations equalized and that is just j what the board is trying to do. ft

REHABILITATION OF DISABLED YANKS Washigton, 1). C., July I.—United! States soldiers, sailors, and marine, who are injured in the service of; their country are receiving special consideration at the hands of the, United States Civil Service Commission and the Federal Board for; Vocational Education, working in co-operation. When the Civil Service Commis-j sion receives an application for ex-; animation front a discharged Yank, whose physiean condition is such that he would not ordinarilv be ac-, cepted, his case is referred to the 1 .Federal Board for Vocational Educa- j tion. The Federal Board turns the matter over to a field officer who ! promptly goes out after the man and offers him the services of the Board's organiation for special training to fit him for the work for which he has applied or for some other employment if it dees not seem practicable to train him for the work for which he made application to the Civil Service commission. Hundreds cf; ;such cases have been referred to the j Federal Board by the Civil Service Commission. Under a recent amendment of the Civil Service Rules, made on the recommendation of the Civil Service Octmmfssion, the Commission may waive the established physical requirements in favor of a disabled

and honorably discharged soldier, | sailor, or marine, upon the certifies- j tion of the Federal oßard for Voca-! tional Education that he has been specially trained for and has passed j ? practical test demonstrating his physical ability to perform the duties of the class of positions in which employment is sought.
