RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND SUN-TELEGRAM, RICHMOND, IND., WEDNESDAY, JULY 27, 1921.

THE RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND SUN-TELEOKAM Published Every Evening Except Sunday by Palladium Printing Co.

Palladium Building, North Ninth and Sailor Streets. Entered at the Poet Office at Richmond, Indiana, as - Second-Class Mail Matter. MEMBER or THE ASSOCIATED PRESS The Associated Press Is exclusively entitled to the use for republication of all news dispatches credited to It or not otherwise credited in this paper, and also the local news published herein. All rights of republication of special dispatcher herein are also reserved. Europe Protects Her Maimed Heroes In sharp contrast with an apparent disregard of the welfare of our maimed war heroes is the

attention which European governments pay to

their war cripples. Despite desperately high taxes- and impaired finances, cases of disabled

veterans are not allowed to wait months fdr ad

justment, but are handled expeditiously. - V a a a a aj -

Every disabled .British soldier, receives an adequate pension based on the percentage of his

disability. War cripples in France, besides receiving government support, also obtain reduced rates on railways, street cars, omnibuses, and bread tickets. Many of them belong to local organizations and to one of the three national federations which maintain' headquarters in Paris and exert considerable political influence.

America might take lessons from the manner in which the European countries care for the disabled soldiers. The plea of economy in connection with just remuneration for former soldiers finds little response in the country at large, so long as congress permits the vast expenditures of public funds for the shipping board enterprise and other ventures of the government.

The Monday Morning, Death List j Monday in Indiana has become a day for the listing of automobile and outing tragedies. The number of persons killed on Sunday is so large

that it has become shocking even to the blase reader of accidental tragedies. Accidental deaths in automobile smashes and by drownings are running a. close race with the toll collected by epidemics. The loss of life among children from accidents was greater than from epidemic diseases in 1917. The American Red Cross reports that

20,000 children, 14 years old and less, lose their

lives each year. In Chicago and Cook county, Illinois, 499 chil

dren lost their lives in accidents last year. Auto

mobile accidents in Chicago in 1920 were respon

sible for 540 deaths out of a total of 1,800, and for the first three, months of this year the rate of increase was 80 per cent compared with the

corresponding period of last year.

Wonder What a Music Record Demonstrator Thinks About'

Have You Clipped Your Coupons? More than $100,000,000 in interest on Liberty and Victory loan bonds has not been collected by owners of these securities, say reports from the treasury department. Many purchasers of bonds have forgotten that the interest can be collected every six months. These securities probably are lying in bureau

drawers, safe deposit boxes, and other receptacles. Treasury department officials say the unpaid interest is due on bonds of $50 and $100

denominations, which indicates that their own

ers are unacquainted with the handling of bonds, and probably do not realize that the coupons

should be clipped off the bond and the money

collected at a bank. Some of the $100,000,000 in interest undoubt

edly is due to holders of bonds in Richmond and

Wayne county. Holders of bonds would find it

to their interest to examine their bonds to see if they have collected the interest. Perhaps some persons have forgotten that they bought

bonds during the war, and will be agreeably sur

prised if they conduct an examination.

The irony of the situation should be obvious to the casual observer. We spend thousands of dollars annually to protect children from contagion. We provide medical examiners in the schools ; insist upon proper sanitary measures in the city; employ visiting nurses.4 maintain state departments of health, and pure food boards. And then, we learn that more of our children are killed and maimed on the streets in accidents than by disease. - Who is to blame? The drivers of automobiles? Not all of them, for the vast majority are careful, especially when thej' see children playing on the street. The minority of reckless

drivers, of course, are undesirable citizens andl

deserve the scathing denunciation of the pedestrian and the "safe and sane" motorists. Parents are responsible in a large degree.

They permit their'children to play on the streets instead of insisting that they use the sidewalks

and the vacant lots. Parents forget that streets

are set aside for' vehicular traffic and are not recreation spots. - Fathers and mothers are very careful to see that their sons and daughters are not exposed to measles, mumps, diphtheria, and other con

tagious diseases that may appear near their homes. Children are cautioned to stay away from quarantined houses, and yet the same parents, knowing that death lurks in the streets, will permit their boys and girls to expose themselves to the hazard. The parent has many obligations to perform in the rearing of his children, but not the least of these is the inculcation of the lessons of safety first. And while parents are doing, this, drivers of vehicles might make a solemn resolve to drive very carefully when they see children near the curb, for no one knows how suddenly a child will dart across the streets into the path of an automobile.

Rippling Rhymes By WALT MASON

Kicks are made against the killers by a lot of grouchy cranks; being staid old social pillars, they forget their boyhood pranks. Everywhere I hear them saying, shuddering at every breath, "There's too much impromptu slaying, too much unexpected death. Any youth can get a rifle guns are now his aims and goals and then, for the merest trifle, he will shoot us full of holes. We are scared, like farmyard pullets when a hawk flies overhead, for we're always dodging bullets, always burying our dead." Thus the ancient men are knocking, roosting in the parks and courts; and they all consider shocking every kind of modern sports. Age makes people cold and narrow, they can't sympathize with fun; they defend the bow and arrow as against the sawed off gun. And the kicks are growing louder, from these shelfworn, dotard folk; when they're shot with cmokeless powder they can't take it as a joke. Every daily paper brings them further news o'er which to cuss; when a charge of buckshot wings them they kick up a beastly fuss. And they call for drastic measures cutting short the wave of crime, but the young must have their pleasures in this merry modern time.

That which is artistic is often the mental attitude which is taken toward a thing. The imagination plays such an important part in dramatic productions that It is not advisable to be too theoretical in producing a play.. The recent prize fight ws the outcome of conditions which exist at the present time. Perhaps the same men would not have been matched to meet each ether, let us say, ten. years ago. . Dramatically speaking, it was wonderful. Financially speaking, it was feorgeous.

It docs not matter if the audience understands it in various ways and according to each individual's mentality, it might deal with, a

TODAY'S TALK By George Matthew Adams, Author of "You Can", "Take It". "Up" NEVER Q1VE UP A thrilling story was published in the metropolitan papers of New York recently. ' A very poor, foreign artist who worked in a little room in Greenwich Village at his art, was suddenly advised that even for his humble abode rent money was necessary. But he had none to give! So he was shoved out He was poorly nourished. His clothes were all on his back. And not any too much at that. It was a dark day indeed for this young chap. I can imagine all he felt But on the very day that he was put out, he received a letter. The letter stated that his painting which he had on exhibition in the country of his birth, had won a scholarship which included three years study with all expenses paid! You never know when the thing you most desire is going to come around. ' The Important task for us all is to keep getting ready. It's the unready, the non-preparing, that are shoved aside, and place given to him who knows who has served his soul aright through all the varying conditions of want, discouragement and failure. I know that it is trite and old advice, but never give up! The blacker and fiercer the storm, the more serene and fresh is the earth afterwards. Never has it been otherwise. You never know when you are going to need sorely the training of sorrow, failure and want I recently visited a little boy in a hospital. The nurses told me that he had no chance at all. But the Mother said that after losing a husband and facing two serious accidents in which her other children had been, she was steeled for anything. And so she smiled and buoyed her pale, suffering boy. I never saw such magnificent nerve and strength of character.! - v A week later they told this Mother that the boy would live! When he gets grown I hope someone will tell him how great a Mother he has. But no one will have to, I suspect. You never know. If you did, you would maybe give up and lose. Somebody is always caring, waiting and expecting. People who understand, have come to know that God is always kind that he always holds out a chance.

Haakon.

KING HAAKON -VII. Three kings were present at the silver wedding of King Haakon and Queen Maud, of Norway, at Christiania recently King George of England," King GGustaf of Sweden and King Christian of Denmark. By the

people of Norway

the king and queen were presented with a splendid gift, to which all the inhabitants, rich and poor alike, had an opportunity to contribute. King Haakon VII of Norway was born Aug. 3,1872, as the second son of the then Crown Prince

Frederik. later Frederik VIII of Denmark. He is a brother of King

Christian X. the present Danish mon

arch. Originally he was called Prince Charles, and received 4 thorough edu

cation as a naval officer, his training enabUng him to command any kind of naval chaft. When Norway in 1903 dissolved the union with Sweden, the

Cnnstiania government offered the throne to Prince Charles. He accepted it, stating that he would adopt the old Norwegian royal family name of Haakon, calling bis son by the equally ancient name of Olaf. On a gloomy November day of 1905 the king entered the capital of his new country, accompanied by bis queen and little crown prince and amid the enthusiasm drove through the illuminated streets to the royal palace. Since that day King Haakon VII has been the ruler of old Norway, and a popular ruler. The people have learned to know and appreciate his cheerful disposition, friendliness, openness of mind and thoroughly democratic spirit. The king has exerted himself to be a genuine Norwegian and the people consider him one of their own. . He is nearly as tall as his brother, Christian X, athletic fond of outdoor life, an enthuiastic yachtsman, and a leader in the winter sports, of which the Norwegians are so fond. In the' very democratic country of Norway the political power of the king

Dinner Stories

Two contractors, of a type unfortunately too familiar, were talking of some buildings which had collapsed before they were finished. "Well, Billerton," said one, "you always have better luck than I do." ' Better luck. How's that?" "Why, my row of new houses blew down in last week's wind, you know, while yours weren't harmed. All were built the same same wood work, same mortar, same everything." "Yes," said the other, "but you forgot that mine had been papered." We have communicated with the spirit of Diogenes. "Ask him," we requested the med-

ium. "ask him if he really lived in a

tub!" The table moved nervously, the medium snored, and from her lips came the very voice of the great Athenian:

"I owned a yacht, you call it a houseboat," said the sage. "I lived on it The jealous yachtsmen of the times called it a tub. Gimme a drink. I say, gimme " The voice died away, but we had solved a mystery.

READER What is pig iron? To put the iron contained in iron ore

the iron as it comes from the ground

into a state in which It can be used as a metal requires, essentially, first its deoxJdation, and second, its separation from other mineral matter, such as clay quarts, etc., with which it is found associated. These two things are done simultaneously by heating and melting the ore in contact with coke, charcoal or .anthracite in the iron blast furnace, from which issue, intermittently, two molten, streams, the iron now deoxidized and incidentally carburized by the fuel with which it has been in contact, and the mineral matter, now called "slag."
