FOR THESE WAR IS NOT OVER. A tiny ncw despatch, tucked away In a corner of the first page, says American hospitals are receiving I,000 disabled and sick war veterans every month, and tlischargir.fr 3.500 cured. This means a monthly increasing roll of patient. This is not. however, the worst to be told. Tht increase is not limited by need cf. hospital treatment: it is kept down by lack of hospital facilities. The United States is treating the heroes of the war much as the proverbial "poor relation" was treated. The nrtion is neglecting the very men who. when the nation was in sore need, gave no thought to their own lives' and comfort. It is little wonder that the national commander of the American Legion should complain: "Distillled veterans are not getting what they deserve from a grateful nation." The nation was grateful, ail right, tack in the war days, when the fix threatened. The nation was grateful indeed when the flower of American manhood rose BP in arms and went forth to give battle. The nation promised much to the boys who fought "Over There." And this is the nation that sang so loudly and orten: ' When you come back ." Well, they came back, many cf them ill and disabled. About half a million of those brave boys were discharged from service "with disability. Yes, they came back! Hut it seems that the nation has forgctten that they came back; ha forgotten the fine promises that were made upen the eve of battle. The nation Las forgotten its solemn duty., , "The war is over." Those four words you have heard often since November 11, 191S. "The war is over," declared politicians in congress as they voted sway war-time legislation. The war is not over for those veterans discharged "with disability. ' The war will net be over with them, for many years to come. .And until the war is over with them, with the last one of them, it cannot be entirely over for he rest of us. That much of the war which has to do with giving the sick and maimed veterans a square deal can never be over until the Inst cf them has passed on Into the hereafter.

the Civil War, ana Soutim. n..-is am glaul., .cig je.ti by Northerners in paying ttibui.e to tht meiJovy an the tulKtary genius of Robert E. Lee, whose birthday If today. Lees fame has not been shadowed because he fought a losing fight. Historians generally place him in front rank as a master of military strategy. With the inadequate forces at his command, there is no denying he had the federal generals guessing more than a time or two. In the states of Alabama, Argansas, Florida. Geor

gia, Mississippi, North Carolina, Sout Carolina, Tenn- , ubsee and Virginia Lee's birthday is a legal holiday, j

It is a time for reminding the younger generation of the Ixst Cause, of which they need not be. ashamed.

It is a pleasant thing to renieniDer that Loe did ,

not have to wait, until half a century after his death unll recognition came to him. As the head of Washington and Lee University he added the reputation of a scholar to that cf a soldier and a gentleman His was a gallant fig are.

SCULPTOR AND MODEL OF" HIS ST A IT E TO COMMEMORATE LANDING OF PILA.KIMS

"ISN'T IT WONDERFUL," Certain words spring into prominence and constant usage ofttimes make them cbnoxlnus. The adjective "wonderful" right now is in the midst of a reign that to some revolutionists seems too long and undeservedly popular. In the theatre you h?ar "Isn't she wonderful?" In the restaurant you learn that the sauer kraut cr the herring is "wonderful". In school you have a "wonderful" lesson or a "wonderful" teacher. On the car lines there are "wonderful conductors" and at concerts the talent of the artists is "wonderful". The word is used by men and women in every walk ci life with strangely similar gusto. Is It a reflection on the paucity of appropriate adjectives or Is it merely a habit that we get into in describing everything from pin3 to locomotives as wonderful? Keeping to on.3 word means that peop'e are either aping some psuedo perfectly proper person cr that the person repeating r.nd repeating the word should purchase a book of "synonyms for all occasions".

GENTLEMAN: SOLDIER: SCHOLAR. Erother may fight brother, but once the quarrel is done they will surely find It in theif hearts' to forgive and to honor each other as before. There is little rancor left now in America over the catastrophes of

THE OLD-FASHIONED STOMACH. There are so man- gee-gaws and new-fangled wave of preparing things to eat these days that the man with an old-fashioned stomach sometimes feels himself distinctly out of hick. A friend of ours went home ihe other night and surprised his wife and scared his children by demanding. In loud and raucous tones, a mess of parched corn. That was "way after supper, of course, and at the hour when the newspaper had beeD thoroughly digested and ft re wn about the floor, lessons all studied, darning (Jone and the evening cigar smoked. Now this man's wife is a good scout, so she fastened on her apron, took a big slice of 60cent butter, heated an Iron skillet until it was red. almost, and say the man went out the next day and bought her a set of furs -for Christmas. There are probaby dozens of the younger readers of this paper who never even tasted parched corn. Maybe they're Just as happy and well off as the youths and maidens of a few years back yes. Just a few years but we doubt it. Pop corn, too, has been diverted from the old ways it used to follow. Now you never get it but it's salted. Then it appear in big, gleaming balls of whiteness, fcnd 'twas sweet. The stuff was stuck together with clear maple raclasses or if there wasn't any of that, sorghum molasses would do. Popcorn balls and rosy appes. white taffy and ginger snaps, soft sider and doughnuts they all used to taste pretty good on a winter's evening.
