that marked lis celebration;
when the trnopships had re-
inrued and we had seen the
loys sutuatcd with chocolates
and ice cream and provided
with red chevrous and service
buitons and $50 on which To
start lite anew, u good many
people i'll America considered
that the nation had done its full
duty by the soldier. AT least
that's the way the returned sol
der the attitude of the public
toward him and his service
Certainty the great mass of
Americans began To turn their
thoughts 10 other things than
war. the results of war. 1t was
natural reaction. For more
Than two years the American
people had bcrn kept turned to
the highest pitch Of patriotism.
There was hardly II man, wo-
man, or child on the continent
who had not made his or her
personal sacrifice. They had
given until 1t hurt. They had
kept the home fires burning.
They had stinted aud they had
saved, not only that their own
boys who were fighting their
fight should have plenty, but
that the allied nations might be
raised TO their highest state of
efficiency.
When the emergency had
passed, American thoughts
were naturally devoted to other
channels. II h q magazines
Stunned war articles and war
stories az persons do the plague.
No motion picture was produced
III which a uniform that was
not poiicemnn's appeared.
The American people made it
their business to forget war.
ltis IL law of physics though
that the pendulum always
swings back exactly MS far as 1t
swings forward. Now the
American people are beginning
to realize that while they were
forgetting war. they were also
forgetting the results of war,
among which are tho soldiers
lncapacitated by wounds or
disease from fighting the bat
ties of life on even terms with
their fellows.
The people are r, alizing that
they were probably guilty of
the great sin of base ingrati-
lude and they are anxious to
atone and expiate.
But atonemont and expiration
would have been impossible had
no agency been at work through
that long period of Indifference
on the very work that the peo-
pie III general are now so anx-
ions to do.
Soon after the signing of the
armistice. officials of the Amer.
lcan Red Cross anticipated ex-
actly the Indifference with
which the public would greet
the claims of the veteran and
the Red Cross also anticipated
just how imperitive was the
necessity for some national
agency to be raised up to care
for their calls.
AS n result, during the past
year, the efforts of the Red
Cross have been largely devot-
ed to helping the ex soldier
The Red Cross has looked after

was open.
Although the General Electric Com
pany is not generally known as a sea-
going corporation IL has one of the most
interesting exhibits. One Of the princi-
pal features is model in actual opera
ton of the steam and electric apparatus
which drives the first American electric
motor propelled merchant ship. the
Eclipse, now heading across the high
seas for India. From boilers steam goes
to n steam turbine, which in turn oper-
ates a generator. The current from
this generator goes to switchboard.
where It is diverted to auxiliary motors
and to the main electric motor, which
turns the propeller shaft. One OF the
principal advantages of this arrange
ment which is also used on the battle
ship New Mexico. is economy.
The progress of marine transportation
from primitive times to the merchant
ships and huge electric propelled war
ships is shown by the company in a
movie film displayed in the Palace. The
motor and gears OF a steam turbine en-
gine. electric signalling apparatus and
various electricc devices for ships also
are shown.
