contribution TO the worlds freedom.
Hers was the moral and mortal help
that turned the tide of the blO0dicst
war. Peace today marks the nations
nineteenth month as n co-belligcrent
with the allies. Americas principles
were the fundamental basis upon
which peace and the armistice were
based. Now the greatest problem be-
fore the world, officials say, Is to
thrash out in the conference peace
that will insure against future wars.
The scene of this conference will
probably be Brussels or Geneva. For
eign representatives and friends have
urged President Wilson to attend.
They believe he will go. The Belgian
minister officially urged today that
the conclaye he held In Brussels.
The above dispatch to the United

dent of the United Press, now In gem
eral charge Of the United Press or
ganization IN France and by william

ATHENA CITY ELECTION
PASSES VERY QUIETLY

The city election Tuesday, was a
quiet one. as expected. A total of So
votes were cast. There was no oppo-
stion to the candidate nominated at
the citizens mass meeting, and there
was always plenty of room to cast the
ballots in the booth at B. B. Rich
ards office, there being total absence
of any semblance of chash of hubani-
ty, or anything Of that sort.
The clerks and judges of election
were at the task until s p. M, con-
forming to the hours regulating the
state election. The few votes cast,
dribbled throughout all parts of the
day. and when the polls closed and
balloting ceased, it did not take the
election board long to count the bal
lots The following is the result:
For Mayor-Homer 1. Watts, At;
H. A. Barrett, q; Robt. Copock, 1.

MEMORY THAT WILL LAST
French Gratitude to America II
Deeply Engraved on the Hearts

Kathleen Norris, writing in the
Woman's Home Companion, gives an
imaginary conversation with a young
French girl describing the coming of
the American soldiers to France as she
Is supposed to remember 1t:
"'And men-to stand beside our
men-from America! l remember
standing at the chateau gateway on a
bright November afternoon and seeing

different. Grandmere was with me,

began to cry softly. "God bless them

UNITED PRESS IS
NOT CONFIRMED

X On the basis Of telegram received
from the East Oregonian yesterday
forenoon by Mayor Watts, Athena eel
ebrated the surrender of the German
armies to allied high command. Church
bells and fire bells pealed forth in vi
brant chorus, and the flags of all our
allies were run up beneath OH Glory.
In short time two huge bonfires were
blazing on Main street. All business
houses closed for the day. Automo-
biles with honking horns. bedecked in
flags, speeded up and down and joy
ously noisy crowds paraded the streets
singing patriotic songs.J Then some
one threw some enc else's hat into
one of the bonfres. This was followed
by general scramble for hats to feed.
the flames THE rest can -begasily i'm
agined. In avery short time the crowd
was bareheaded and every one was
hunting for a head wearing hat.
Automobiles passing through with
strangers driving were heldsup with
the result that there was always a hat
ready to be good naturedly tossed into
the fire. 1t is estimated that 500 hats
were burned inEthe jubilation.
1t later developed that the reports
Of signing the armistice were pIema-
ture and lacked confirmation. The
East Oregonian's wire was based on
United Press reports. The Asssociat-
ed Press last night and this morning
brands the report as hoax, saying
that the German delegation for armis-
, tice negotiations would not have ar
rived within the French lines until last
, evening, Thursday.

have all seen lot and learned lots
more.
"On our latest trip up to the line we
had little hard luck as far as excite
ment was concerned. but got little
work and some souvenirs one COM
pany of our regiment even claiming a
wagon load of automatics. Helmets
and bayonets have almost ceased to be
worth the trouble and now all expect
iron crosses, field glasses or Lugers.
Just a few nights ago we got to sse
the prettiest air battle possible. IL it
wasn't worth seeing, nothing ever vas.
OF course Jerry came down. The allies
now seem to be playing with Germany.
and certainly have them worried. But
no army was ever made that could
keep up their morale for very long
with the loss Of prisoners, and thrusts
that they are now getting; and If it
keeps up till the first of the year the
line is going to be well toward Ger
