WAR AND PEACE CASUALTIES
More Spectacular to Lose Limbs In
Battle Than in Factory, but Re
Education Is Necessary.
George Edward Barton, author of
<rRe-Education,” recently gave out •
most interesting interview^ in Wash
ington, where he had gone to see the
iecretary of war, the French ambas
sador and the heads of several de
partments of the surgeon general's
office on the subject of the re-educa
tion of maimed and crippled soldiers.
Mr. Barton, who is head of Consola
tion House in New York, said in
part:
“The needs of the re-education of
cripples are not made by war, but are
only intensified by it; we draft a
whole army of industrial cripples
every year. The federal commis
sion on industrial relations gives the
annual list of accidents, approxi
mately, 35,000 fatalities and 700,000
injuries involving disability of over
four weeks.
“That these figures would be
equaled by the casualty list in our
army overseas is improbable, and
while it is perhaps more spectacular
to lose one’s arm or leg in the din
the turmoil of battle than it is to
lose the same member in that of a
mill, factory or foundry, the results
—so far as the individual is con
cerned—are practically the same,
and the needs of society for the re
education of that man are identical.*
Mr. Barton’s book formulates a
plan whereby disabled soldiers may
be made almost or wholly self-sup
porting.
LEARN TO LIKE GOOD MUSIC
Soldiers in Paris Lose Their Fancy for
Ragtime by Frequent AttencL
ancj at Opera.
It is curious to think that the gov
e'nment is sending American sol
diers to Europe to get a musical edu
cation, according to Samuel Lel
louche, lance corporal of the Three
Hundred and Twenty-eighth infan
try, army of France, who is in New
York on sick leave, says the New
York Herald.
The orchestra had just played the
overture from “I Pagliaeci,” and the
corporal had listened to it with rapt
attention.
“Ah, but I love that kind of mu
sic,” he said. “I never cared for it
much before I left my home in West
Haven, Conn., about three years ago
and joined the French army, but
there in France I heard nothing else.
I grew to love fine music, and now I
detest the other kind—ragtime and
all that sort of thing. It will be so
with the American soldiers in
France. You see, they admit the
American soldiers free to the opera
there, and they soon learn to love it.
I saw how it was before I left Paris.
The musical taste of the boys was
being improved rapidly, and the
longer, they stay over there the more
critical they will become, 60 that
eventnally it will help music in this
country when they get back to their
homes, for they will insist upon hav
ing what is good.”
How many War Savings
i Stamps do you own ?
Thrift and Economy
The Council of National De
fense and the Advisory Com
mission of the Council believe'
that a concerted effort for
economy by the people of the
Nation will not only go far to
wards paying America’s ex
pense in the war, but will also
reduce consumption of raw ma
tenal essential to the conduct
of the war.
The Council urges all to re
frain from unnecessary ex
penditures of every kind, and'
to bear constantly in mind that
only one thing is now of real
importance, and that is th
winning of the war.
The Nation s resources in
man-power, money, transpor
tation, food stuffs, raw materi
al and fuel, have already been
subjected to heavy strain, and
it is the clear duty of every citi
zen to guard against increasing
this strain by a single wasteful
act.
It is most creditable for all,
man and woman, boy and girl’
to be economical in dress, food
and manner of living. Every
evidence of helpful self-denial
on the part of all in a time like
this is most commendable.
This war is more than a con
flict between armies; it is a
contest in which every man,
woman and child can and
should rnder real assistance.
Thrift and economy are not
only a patriotic privilege, they
are a duty.
