WAR IS NOT OVER FOR THESE. H"'(!l?r bonuses, ha proposed by the !ül ptndinij In cor '.'cv, are one thlri?, anl the care of tho s.ck and disabled war veteran ci'lte another thir.K. but If there i anything to the clilm that It wan tho American joMI ry that prcclpit-facd the -nd of thi war. maybo they ought to be the same thin. It l. oh so r;any. for tho American r.eople to forget, or, perhaps, in their cold-plated .o.-uci-ncs, not to care. We are terribly afraid just now that something nvay be done with these jldier bon'Jues, an I hospital funds, that will work a hardship on American business, but BUtpofo, an we liked to talk -when wo worn selling Liberty bond" and b-K'ging for tht lied Croa, the kaiar had pot those bu.int-sics inr tcad? A tiny news dispatch, tucked nway In n corner f the firnt pape. !.-iys American hospitals are recelvlntr 5,0 CO dimblcd and sick war veterans every month,, and dlschartcinK 3,500 cur d. This means a month'y inr-reaving roll of patient?. This it not, however, th wor?t to b told. Th? Increase is not limited by need of hospital triatment; it is kept down by lack of hf-5pit;il ficllltlep. The United States p treating the heroeM of the war much as the proverbial "poor relation" was treated. The nation !.h nTlectinp the very men who, when the nation was in Foro need, pave no thought t their own lives and comfort. It Is little wonder that the national Commander of tho American 'x-Kion Fhould complain: "Disabled veterans are not ttinff what they deserve from a grateful nation." Th- nation was grateful, all riht. back in 1h war days, when the foe threatened. The nation was urateful indeed whvn tlm Uower of American manhood roue up in arms and went forth to give; battle. The nation promised much to the boys who fotifiht "Over There." And th!s is tho nation thit h;mir so loudly and often: "When you come back." Well, they came back, many cf thorn i'l and disabled. About half a million of those brave boya vc.-rr discharged from service with disability. Yes. they came back! IUit it seems that the nation hss forgotten that they camp back; has forgotten tho Mne promises that were mado upon the eve of battle. The nation has forgotten Its solemn duty. "The war Is over." Thoso four words you havo heard often sine? Nov. 11. 19 1 S. "The war is over." declared politicians In cor.grc?. ,iÄ they voted away wartime legislation, Th" war is not over for thee veteran.- discharged "with disability." The war ulll not be over wit.i them for many years to come. And until the wr is over with thm. with tha lis, one of them, it cannot be entirely over for tho reit of ua. That much of the war which has to do wUA giving the idek nr.J mainud veterans a .-quaro dtal can never b.- over until the lat of them has passed on Into the hereafter. o LI GOT ON THE INDIANA DRY LAW IN THE ZIMMER-DAMBACHER CASE. The disposition made of the Zlmmer-Damtach r liquor cz briug to the fere a number of lecal ramiflcatlona that, it would seem, deserve tho attention, ftrfrt of th. police, thin of the state legislature, and finally, of occasional juries. The po'.ico department should, indeed. te apprised of the requirements of tht- Indiana statute with reference to tLe selxure of Hiuor, the legislature should inoculate the statute with a larger measure of denniteness on tho subject, an 1 Juries need to learn that having found a mar. gi:i;ty ef violation of the law, that guilt should be l-ft to carry with it the prccrl'oed tunlhinent, without tht introduction of sentimental slu.h.

An i then as to the legislature. What Indiana rii-t i Is to h ive its firohibition law amended Into con.pb t'- h irri'.i'ny with tlie Voh:-ad act. I'rohl-bitiom'.-'ts. who ar real prohibitionists, believing in prohibition and that the way to have it is enforce it: concerned to that end, rather than to employ it as a pV.ltb-al foothill, and to point to in pharisalc fe'.f-adm'.ration. cu'ht to take notice of this cae anl see what ran h done through th" coming slate ayy-mbly toward c-tting th federal and stae Ftatut-s harnionized. There should be no bpal (xru- for the situation, surU as rendered it necessary for Judge Montgomery v release the liquor in the Zimmvr-Dam.-haeiier ras- v.s he did, though he virtually did so, directly into the Inderal government'.s hands. Dut for the presence of federal otlicer, it would 1 avo teen n(C(fary for i'ros. Schwartz to institute a search and seizure procet-J'ng to correct the error committed by the police, and k..p the liquor from retvr.iifig to Zimmer and Dimbach'a control. South Tend hopes that with the tines paid an 1 sentences served by thee men, the ca. will io f( rever disposed f, but the !ts;-ons to be drawn from it are good or.es, and should be heeded. It has been a long drawn out affair, disgusting in many spots, but if it teaches the police a lesson, and brings about some improvements in the Indiana statute, perhaps it will all be worth the while. THE OLD-FASHIONED STOMACH. There are fo many gee-gaws and new-fangle 1 ways cf preparing things to cat these days that the m.in with an old-fashioned stomach sometimes feel3 himself distinctly out of luck.

A friend of ours went home the other night and surprised his wife and seared his children by demanding, in loud and raucous tones, a mesa of parched corn. That was 'way after supper, of course, and at the hour when the newspaper had been thoroughly digested and strewn about t hefloor, lessons all studied, darning done and tho evening cigar smoked. Now this man's wife is a good scout, so she fastened on her apron, took a big slice of 60-cent 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 probably 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 hack yes, just a few years but we doubt it. Popcorn, too, ha.s been diverted from tho old ways it used to follow. Now you never get It but it's ita'lted. Then, it appeared in big, gleaming ba'ls of whiteness, ar.d 'twas sweet. The stuff was stuck together with clear maple molasses or if there wasn't any of that, sorghum molasses would do. Popcorn balls and rosy apples', white taffy and ginger snaps, soft cider and doughnuts they all used to taste pretty good on a winter's evening. EDUCATION IN 1620 AND NOW. One of the first thinirs the Pilgrims did when they settled in New England was to establish free, public schools for their children. In the COO years slnc they came to these shores the country has grown amazingly, has become a great democracy, proud of its progressive ideals and achievements. Oen It. Lovejoy of the national child labor committee poinN out how the nation has failed in the matter of education. In his annual report of the committee's work he says: "There are at bast 5,:00 illiterates In the United States. Nearly one-fifth of all American children between 10 and 15 are out of school earning their own money." Sucn prores as has been made in industry and transportation, in the maintaining of hih standards of living, etc., is shamed by the neglect of the nation's young itizei.s. The Pilgrims were right in the emphasis they placed upon education for children. Their descendants are wrong when they permit so many to go, uneducated, into Jobs which develop Utile skill or Initiative and offer little opportunity for advancement.
