NEW YORK, Dec. 30.--It was the
quiet hour along Park row. In one
Of the newspaper Offices somebody
over on the copy desk waved a piece
of paper IN the air and shouted "Hey,
Peace has been proposed"
And there was a queer little hush
in the room, and then everybody
started toward the desk, like straws
sucked into a whirlpool, wanting to-
get nearer the news. And a pale
little reporter murmured ind his
breath with a sort OF gasp: Gee, just
at Christmas time"
In the midst of all the scurryfng
excitement of getting out an extra
there seemed to be a halo OF joy on
the gray, drizzly day. And one Of the
girl reporters cried, and there was
breath1ess, rapt sort of feeling such
as there must have been on q Christ
mas eve all those ages ago when there
was peace on earth.
And most Of the grIzzled old copy
readers sucking at their pipes and
cfgarets threw back their green
shades and smiled. And most all
wanted to cry and laugh and dance
and Shrek for joy.
They never realized before how
that red thing over on the other side
had got to them until there was a
chance of ending It all. Then they
went limp. Newspaper men are the
most human folk IN the world but
they show It least In their actions.
