PASSING OF GOOD MAN

OF SEVERAL MONTHS.
Thursdays Daily Herald.)

was called to eternal rest this morn
ing at 1920 o'clock when Sam j.
Thomas passed away at his home on
the Mt. Pleasant pike after an illness
of several months duration. His
death has caused not only sorrow

his neighbors and in the congregation
of the McCain's Cumberland Presby-

years and months old and had resid-
ed the greater part of his life at the

Written for the United Press J

Written lot tne UH1leu FTcSS.)
NEW YORK, Dec. 12.-The first
month OF the German armistce end
cd Wednesday with many OF the
terms not yet fully carried out. New
ertheless the delays have not been
proven to have been deliberatly
created by the Germans for the pur-
pose of interfering with the allies and
gaining an advantage for Germany.
The continuance of the armistice
period, therefore, is inevitable. The
German army is now at the mercy
of Marshal Foch and is wholly unable
to renew the war. The most it could
do would be to engage in extensive
rioting or in useless guerilla fight
ing.
There is no evidence that the
Germans are seriously conspiring to
bring about any such sporadic protest
against the allies victory in the near
future. Counter revolts have been
plotted during the past few months
both by the German bolsheviki and
Supporters of the Hohenzollern family.
But they have not accomplished any
serious propaganda results, chiefly
because the great majority OF the
German people appear to be CON
vinced that their own future recovery
depends wholly on the preservation
of order and discipline during the
present period of transition. There is
every prospect, therefore, that the
allies can continue the terms OF the
armistice without fear that new
situation strategically beneficial to
Germany will result.
