What The Veterans Gave.

Regret is often expressed that the
exercises of the National Memorial
Day attract so little attendance and
attention. A pessimist remarks that
a parade of callow soldier boys Of
1916 in their spick and span uni
forms would attract much larger
crowd. Yet these youths are mere
raw recruits who have had no bap-
tism of fire. But they represent the
forward look. The men who wore
the Blue or the Gray represent a past
age and backward vision. History
and those who stand for it are set
aside in this hurrying age.
Yet it is not always possible to
guage popular interest merely by at
tendance at public exercises. Poor
church attendance does not mean
that the people are ready to give up
religious worship. The Memorial
Day observances are about the same
thing year after year, and our rest
less people demand novelties.
Public appreciation is always tardy.
But the luster of soldierly deeds of
81 is bound to increase. Great
societies will grow up of men and
women glad to claim descent from
soldier blood. Records will be search
ed to prove this distinction.
When the old soldiers are asked to
address school children, the young
sters always seem thrilled by their
simply told tales of heroism. The
public gratitude to these men is
warmer than they or their friends
realize. When one of them dies, the
fact of his soldierly service is the one
thing the newspapers emphasize the
most.
1t is too bad that full recognition
is not given these men before they
pass on. The younger generation too
little realize what they gave up for
their cause. Half of those who re-
turned were so affected by disease
and overstrain that they could never
achieve any business success. They
gave UP their all, and our people
should never forget it.

Some Essay Themes

If the boys and girls in Paris and
Bourbon county schools who are to
graduate this year have not complet-
ed their essays, here is a mighty SEN
sible suggestion sent out by the U. S.
Interior Department. The Secretary
of the Interior believes it would be a
good idea for boys and girls to base
their graduating essays this year on
the causes and the purposes of war.
Just at this time when every mind
is more or less occupied with
thoughts along that line, the sug-
gestion does seem to be timely one.
Of course we understand that "Be-
yond the Alps Lies Italy," but why
not modernize it little and tell
them that Back of Hindenburg Lies
Berlin" 1t would be more interest
ing, too, because we expect our SOL
diers to get to Berlin, and we never
expect them to be needed in Italy.
OF course that is only one theme
in a thousand. Essays on ''The Value
of Sacrifice to Nation, Tor How Can
1 Help in the War" would be good
subjects, to say nothing of "Educa-
ton and War;" or 1.-THE Red Cross
Its History and Work" The gradu-
ates could find plenty to form essay
in THE Democracy of Universal Ser
vice." Preparation For Peace at the
Close of the War;" or Honor in Pub
lie Service"
There's no end to war subjects
that could be utilized in framing
graduation essays. And right now a
graduating essay with a war slant
isn't so apt to make the audience
wonder where it was copied from.
