week.
There are over 100000 boys, 16 to

"A great advantage to the nation
in bringing these young men to the
farms is the inevitable result that the
boy for the first time will come to
appreciate what agricultural life is.
They'll be benefited physically to a
greater extent than if they worked in

Washington, Nov. 1t.-(5y The As seeisted Press). Armistice terms have be.n signed by Germany, the state department announced at PAS o'clock this morning.
 The world wa. will end this morn ing at six o'clock, Washington time, il o'clock Paris time. The armlstice was signed by the German represen- tives at midnight. This announce ment was made by the state depart ment at 2.5o o'clock this morning.
 The announcement was made ver- baIly by an official of the state depart r1ent in this form:
 "The armistiee has been signed. I. vas signed at o'clock q. m. Paris time and hostilities will cease at il o'clock this morning, Paris time.'
 The terms of the arnistce, it was announced, will not be made public until later. Military men here, how ever, regard it as certain that they include:
 Immediate retirement ef the Gerna military forces from France, Belgium and Alsace Lorraine.
 Disarminq and rehabilitation of thu German armies.

 Disarmament of all other German warships under supervision of the all lied and American navies which will guard them.
 Occupation of the principal German naval bases by sea forces ot the vic torious nations.
 Release of allied and American soI- dieds, sailors and civilians held pris- oners in Germany without such reel . procaI action by the associated gov- ernments.
 There was no information as to the circumstances under which the ar nrstice was signed, but since the Ger man courier did not reach military headquarters until ten o'clock yester- day morning. French time, it was generally assumed here that the Ger man envoys within the French lines had been instructed by wireless to sign the terms.
 Forty seven hours had been re- qSired for the courier to reach Ger man headquarters and unquestionably several hours were necessary TOT the examination of the terms and a de- | cision. It was regarded as possible, however, that the decision may have been made at Berlin and instructions transmitted from there by the new German government. | Germany had been given until II o'clock this morning, French time, six o'clock Washington time, To accept | So hostilities will end at the hour set | ty Marshal Foch for a decision by Germany for peace or for continual ! tion of the war.
