NOVEMBER 11th, 1918-Peace-The Armistice was signed, and civilization staggered back from its race to suicide. War let loose its death grip on the throat of blood-stained Europe, and gave the peoples of the earth a breathing spell, in which to gaze upon countless ruins of cities, millions upon millions of graves; a world filled with widows, orphans, maimed and suffering, crushed and tumbling nations, and a strained and almost shattered civilization. NOVEMBER 11, 1918-A day of relief, a day of joy, a day of thanksgiving! TODAY-NOVEMBER 11, 1923, five, years later, finds a world full of thanksgiving for the relief granted, for the suffering ended, for the sacrifices no longer demanded; finds a sore-tried humanity slowly struggling back from the abyss cf war and destruction to the cool, green hills of peace, and the broad, flat fields of prosperity���to better, freer, higher standards of civilization.

H. 1914���OUT of a clear summer sky broke the thunder-clap of war, sending men and women by the thousands, cheering, into the streets of the great cities of Europe. Starting from a little blaze in the Balkans, the holocaust of blood and slaughter soon swept over Europe, dragging into its voracious flames the nations of the earth, as wisps of straw into a furnace. Men who, in their tens of thousands, a few short months before," had been enjoying the peace of their firesides, were flocking to the various banners raised. Cheering as they marched through the streets, singing as they went to the front, thinking not of themselves, thinking not of the morrow; swept up in a gale of excitement that carried them to an inferno as of hell. Filling the trenches today, filling the graves tomorrow; leaving forever their dear ones; mothers, wives, sisters and 1J..1 ���u-u- !*_ t. t. j l i ! few disappointments, it wus, on the whole, a re little children with tear-stained cheeks , ,, f ���' -.,- ' 7 ' j markably successful otie.
