It is all too plain that the processes of war are having their effect on the youth of our nation. The stimu lating effects of peaceful industry, the pleasures of living at home and the enjoyment of freedom from regimentation are all taken from them. They must drive into the jungles, into the heat and struggle of battle and face the many details of war that are all so foreign to their normal walks of life. They learn to think deeply—and measure the reasons why. The mental and physical strain deepens the lines on their faces and erases much of the appearance of the young boys who left us many months ago. On their visits home they find that the old order still exists in the main. Great crops are ready for harvest. Business is prosperous, labor is highly paid and many of the pleasures of life still continue. They cannot see that we have many pinches of war; and that we do not realize as we should the struggles that they are making to protect and preserve our normal ways of life. They come from the harships of war and greet their friends and relatives who are in tensely glad to see them—and'then go from their old home walks back to the camps and battlefields. Pains of heart are unspoken and their experiences seldom told. The job they have to do is theirs and heroically they do their duty through the months and years as they change from youth to an early develop ed manhood. This is what must make us, who keep the home fires burning, think more devotedly as to the future welfare of our country. If we do not we will find a great gap between us and the millions of our fighting forces when peace finally arrives. Our obligation now is to keep them well armed and well supplied on the many battle fronts. Our future obligation will be to reinstate them into jobs, former positions and business of reg ular affairs of the nation. There should be no polit ical parleying as to ways and means of opening wide the gates of industry to them. We must do this job, which is our job, as honestly and patriotically as they will have done their job. If we do not meet this problem sincerely and with sacrifice, if necess ary, on the broad basis of clean democracy, they will again want to know the reasons whv — with their fuller developed minds and national spirit.
