The War Babies March.
(Kansas City Star.)

There is tragic irony in the conditions under which the French Government has called up it's latest class for military training. The boys who have just been conscripted under the system of compulsory military service in France were born during the World War. They are the war babies" and they have been summoned to the coors in a period of such general apprehension that the French have felt it necessary to double the term of their training. Tn exactly generation Europe has progressed from a war-to-end-wars to situation that threatens to produce even more terrible conflict this time war that may end civilization
 The generation that is being trained for war, not only in France but Germany and every other European country with compulsory service started life under serious handicap The war time scarcity of food resulted in much malnutri- tion among children. Then when the children of l914-18 were ready to their living they found their opportunities greatly diminished by the econ onic distress that direct consequence of the war. And now they are confronted with the fact the enormous sacrifices of that conflict have not been able to assure peace in Europe for more than a generation The experience of these war babies is bitter commentary upon the incompetent man. agement of human affairs

DON'T FORGET HER ON OTHER DAYS.

Tomorrow the nation pays tribute to the mothers of By word and deed will attempt to show in a small way our appreciation for the who gave us that which we treasure most life itself. wonderful gesture it is, but if it be only a merce resume the following day and mother goes on with her tasks it will be empty of purpose and small payment indeed for the debt of gratitude we owe.
 Mothers Day should stand for something more than day of sending flowers. While it is well that a special date is set aside a national holiday in honor of mothers, is it not just as important that the other 365 days are ones of thoughtfuness, tenderness and equal appreciation? That is the key to Mothers Day; arousing anew in the hearts of and women their thoughts of the who gave them birth. She who nursed them in babyhood, guided their steps through adolescence and sent them out into the world to compete with other mothers sons and daughters. Their paths from there lead often far away but to mother they still the youngsters playing by her side. She never forgets. but too often those youngsters now grown into men and women, do.
 If tomorrow can revive in those who have been neglectful determination to be a little more thoughtful and apprecatve of mother in the future 1t will not have been celebrated in vain.
 Conceived by Miss Anna Jarvis of Philadelphia in honor of her mother, Mrs. Granville E. Jarvis, the day is of noble purpose By act of Congress 1t has been declared a national holiday, but only by act of daughter can it gain it's true significance. Let us pay homage to mother on Sunday but let us not forget her on the Mondays the Tuesdays and the rest of the weeks and years.

The Policy of Great Newspaper.
fKansas City Star )

The standards for the conduct of a great daily newspaper as set forth in the will of the late Adoph s. Ochs publisher of the New York Times are in the best tradition of modern journalism Those standards taken for granted in the offices Of all responsible and ef-respecng newspapers not only in the United States but throughout the Engish-speaking world. Nevertheless, since there are always unfortunate and conspicuous exceptions to the general practice it is useful to have them restated frequently, and particularly so at time when much attention is being paid to the question of a free press.
 While it is true that the freedom of the press is one of the primary safeguards of human liberty under the democratic system of government, it is also true that that freedom may be impaired quite as effectively through the adoption of low journal istic standards by a political censorship MT Cchs has pointed out the necessity for honest and informed opinion expressed with courtesy; for com pete and impartial news reports, and for all busi- ness relations to be conducted high ethical plane Such have been the policies of the New York Times under MT Ochs and undoubtedly they will be continued under his successors. But more than that, they represent the charter of free press
 It is interesting to compare MT. Ochs statement with that of great English editor the subject few years ago the late c. P. Scott, editor of the Manchester Guardian, summed up the situa- ton in these words:
 The newspaper is of necessity something
 of monoply and its first duty is to shun
 the temptations of a monopoly Its primary
 office is the gathering of news. At the peril
 of its soul it must that the supply is
 not tainted Neither in what it gives,
 in what it does not give, in the mode
 of presentation, must the unclouded face
 of truth suffer wrong. Comment is free,
 but facts sacred Propaganda so called,
 by this means is hateful The voice of
 opponents, no less than that of friends, has
 a right to be heard Comment is also justly
 subject to a self-imposed restraint. It is
 well to be frank it is better to be fair.
 On both sides of the Atlantic the highest ideals of journalism identical And it is because they find expression in great newspapers, fully much as because of the political genius of the peoples involved that the freedom of the press is so secure in the English-speaking countries today.

Gardner and his group toured seven

about Is cents night. That is the
popular vacation for young people in
Europe, he says, and he often found

FRENCH LICK SPRINGS, Ind,
l. October 5.-With the first
signs of Fall creeping over the
L foothills of the Cumberlands,
the season" of social and recrea-
tional activities at the French Lick
Springs Hotel has begun once more.
For more than 80 years the famous
spa and resort has attracted visitors,
especially at this time of the year,
when Summer European cruises, sea
shore and north woods excursions
have subsidized.
The scenic beauty of the hilly coun-
tryside remains unchanged since the
gay ninety" days. The colored
foliage of Southern Indiana is as bril-
liant as when James Whitcomb Riley
wrote of it. Horseback riding through
deeply forested valleys and over the
long slipping hills is still as popular as
in the days when side saddle" for
the ladies was the mode.
All modern forms of recreation and
sport. however, have since been pro-
vided for the diversion of visitors at
French Lick Springs. First came the
18-hole Valley" golf course, running
through the ravine in which the hotel
is located. Later, the famous Hill"
course, also 10 holes and scene of some
of the country's major tournaments,
was added not far away.
The opportunity to play on these
links long after cold weather prevents
golfing elsewhere is one of the feature
attractions here.
IMMEDIATELY adjoining the hotel
Is the japanese garden and the
nearby Pluto water spring, natural
flowing basin of mineral water.
Healthgiving salts and minerals
abound naturally in the locality and
are contained in the spring water.
From these chemical deposits French
Lick originally derived its name Their
curative powers were known to the
Indians and also to the animals. The
buffalo trace" along which bison
from grazing grounds on the
Ohio and Wabash Rivers is still to be
found here.
Consequently the area became
hunting ground for the early French
settlers and trappers, who eventually
built fortress, Fort French Lick, on
the site of the present hotel.
Other points of historic and ro-
mantle interest abound in this region.
Spring Mill Park is a duplicate of
pioneer Indiana settlement, recon-
structed by the Department of State
Parks. Here the original water wheel
and mill of the village still grind corn
to meal and provide powers for the
saw mill.

HEALTH OFFICER
 ISSUES WARNING
Case of TrichinOsis Re- ported Here; Pork Must
 Be We'll. Cooked

A warning that all users of pork make certain that 1t is cooked well before eating was issued to-day by Health Officer Dr D. J. Godfrey. The warning, which was made be- fore by Dr Godfrey, was announced because of another case of tri- chinosis in the city. The patient was discharged on Wednesday of this week from St Mary's hospital after having been undner treat ment of the disease since March 16th.
 Dr Godfrey urges that all forms of pork, including fresh shoulders and smoked hams, be cooked well before eating. Pork that is well cooked kills the germ and prevents it's danger, Dr Godfrey explained.
 The germ can cause death Gs will be recalled several years ago when two members of a family of five died from the disease and tho other three members were serious ly i'll for several weeks.
