The Change of Our Boys from Youth to Manhood
As the boys return home on furlough, one by one,
after a period overseas or in arduous training camps,
the face and appearance of the boy is gone to a large
degree, and the lines of man have been formed. 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.
