Entered at the postoffice at Winnet- ka, lllinois, as mail matter of the sec- snd class, under the act of March 3, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 18, 1922 THE CITIZEN AND THE VETERAN There is no one worthy the title of American citizen who has a soul so dead that he can oppose any- thing that can add to the happi- ness and the comfort of those men of the fighting forces who suffered disability to such an extent that they are unable to care for them- selves. The work of the Veteran Aid Bureau is the one branch of the government to whose purpose there can be no opposition, if only it is carried on in an honest, prac- tical and efficient manner. Whatever money is necessary to take proper care of the disabled ex-service men, that should be forthcoming, every well contributing gladly his fair share of the cost, each looking upon the opportunity to help as a privilege of citizenship which he would re- luctantly forego. The American civilian is not niggardly in his at- titude of mind towards the men who fought in the late war. The American civilian is not unappre- ciative of the service that was ren- dered and of the quality of the pa- triotism that sent the men into the uniform of their country, even be- fore the draft drew them there. The American civilian, the individ- ual, wishes to see justice, and more than justice, done to those who suf- fered because of their service. The Veteran Aid Bureau represents this state of mind in the average citizen and should be aware of the consequent responsibility that rests upen it to perform the duties with which it is entrusted with the ut- most in result. REED S15 HELPING RUSSIA Russia is issuing an urgent in- vitation to American artisans and promoters to help in the re-estab- lishment of the industries of the country, a call for help made necessary by the thoughtless de- struction of those who happened to have been blessed with intel- lect a little above that of the un- tutored peasant and those who had enjoyed advantage of train- ing in some profession or trade. Russia is finding out by the hard tuition of experience, that some- thing more than brawn is neces- sary to build up business and to direct the development of indus- try. Russia stands in its relation towards the other nations of the world much as a naughty child does towards its parents. Punish- ment there must be, but no hold- ing of malice. The offenders have erred because of lack of under- standing, rather than from real desire to do harm. Russia must be trained and helped in the way a prosperous nation must go if there is to be safety for the other nations of Europe. Somebody will arise to develop the resources of the country. Much better that that somebody be the govern- ments of the nations for whom relations with Russia hold possi- bilities of mutual good. PUTTING OFF DEATH The doctor who has announced the discovery of a serum whereby age may be indefinitely postponed says that "we have only scratched the surface of the matter of re- juvenation." Death may be put off, he says, except in such cases citizen | | as it comes from other causes than the wearing out of the hu- man machine. We may live in vigor and in full possession of our physical functions, missing the gradual encroachment of feeble- ness that marks man's progress towards the grave. Few people really wish to die. Barring the visitation of tragedy there is nothing that quite recon- ciles us to the leaving of life, even when life is hard. But the indefi- nite extension of the lease on life may not be altogether a blessing, whether circumstances are for- tunate or otherwise. There must be some means discovered by which one may keep step with the times, some discovery by which one generation may not differ quite so radically from another. Sympathy with those about us is all that makes life desirable. Long physical life without an equal ex- tension of the gift of understand- ing would be only an affliction. IAN SE Health Commissioner Bunde- sen of Chicago has declared war on siren whistles on automobiles. "I firmly believe many who have died on the streets supposedly from heart disease really were victims of shock from sirens," he says. Rather an odd idea, but one which, coming from a learned medico, must carry weight. RANDOLPH] BEAUTY SHOP 1159 Wilmette Avenue Brown Bldg.
