Soldier Bonus
Continued from First Page

thing about war is this, that nothing in
peace gives you so much sense of being
alive. Until pacifism reckons with this
fact, we shall have wars, because the man
who has been through war and has not
been hurt will usually try the next war,
in the hope of living again before he
dies.
And the calamity which the soldier
really bewails is getting out of the uni
form, becoming Debated hero. In your
civilian clothes you are back where you
were before, and the civilian clothes are
usually not so smart nor so becoming as
the uniform. The women no longer feel
it their duty to flatter you, the men treat
you as one Of themselves, the world ex-
poets you to get on in the old, old ways
by work, by your unexaggerated merits.
And the world, in peace times, is COM
paratively dull.
1t is hard luck. Realizing that he is
worse off than he was in the Army, the
soldier easily teaches himself to believe
that he is worse of than before he went
in the Army. He has grievance against
an ungrateful country. He will speak
to his Congressman about 1t.
That's really what he wants us to COM
pensate him for.

Platt had set Krausslich up in that apartment

One night I was feeding Miss Updyke's

the first thing knew Maize came in too.
How do you get that way, leaving the ele-

That combination was a poser.
"You mean you just picked up the piano?"
asked her. AT home?"
"At home! Say, what kind of palatal

the piano rolls and the radio. can't read
music-I know the names Of the notes, but
don't use 'em. grab 1t by ear. Let me hear
something once and I can play it."
I figured that since Maize hadn't had any
lessons she simply didn't understand highbrow
music any more than did, and that was why
she didn't see any sense in Platt's playing.
And said that to her. She got sore.
Come on down to the third floor" she said,
"and listen for yourself"
Sure enough, when we got TO Platt's moor,
we could hear him pounding awey as usual.
There. what did tell you?" she said.
