To the Editor of The Evening Star:
While caring justly for those who are re-
turning to us from the recent war, those
who have served longer and through great
err peril should not be forgotten. The writer
has in mind one who, as a boy, enlisted in
the civil war, served faithfully and honor
ably for four years, and was honorably
discharged. His absolutely temperate and
moral habits have kept him in such health
that he can draw no pension He has a
wife and two children. He does not know
today where his food is to come from to-
morrow. Time and again he has been given
hope of employment by the governm mt,
only to he disappointed. 1t is a hope de-
ferred that has made the heart very sick
When such a man has been thrty-six
hours without a morsel of food, it is hardly
strange that n should ask why it is tina,
hundreds of men who have never turned
their hands over for their country, and who
are in 10 distress, should be given good
raying positions while he and his family
aIc left to starve. 1t does not seem an I'M
reasonable question. 1t is submitted with
out the knowledge of the man himself, 10
any whom it may concern.

They were. Burlington the opening even

Why are the lights there, if not to be
used? When visitors gos to the library for

strain on the eyes tolhaye the illumination
SO far above them. have heard friends
who have been present. every night since
