A MOTHERS MESSAGE
TO HER SOLDIER SON
(By Mrs. j. II. Bertraru).
Davenport, Iowa.

PSA - ANHct'
Hush little rookie, don't you cry,
You'll be a sergeant by and by
Cheer right UP. don't give a slam,
Work right on for Uncle Sam.
Mother tried to raise you right
Now you're ready for the fight.
Though the hours might seem quite
long.
Shorten them with q sweet song.
Or whistle as you did
When you were a-ound here, kid
hear 1t ringing in my ear.
Though the sounds not quite so clear.
If you go across the sea
VIII you oftimes think of me,
When the cradle [ did rock
And you were always on the dock?
On the dock you now must be
For your country and not for me.
When you're out to see the sights
Keep your upper story right.
Cut Out dope and sauerKraut.,
Coffin Iais are fit for laHts;
This you keep in mind | pray
God may help you on your way.
And the girls not least but last,
They are now things of the past,
While the war is going ON
Better get some far of -[un.
Then returning home in years
To the. one you left in tears.
Hoping you will do your part
With a bright and cheerful heart.
Bend your knees, pray by the hour,
Trust in him who has the power.
If you do this come what will,
What power has old Kaiser Bill?

GERMANS MUST ANSWER BY MONDAY
That "Armistice" Cable
BY THE EDITOR OF THE STAR

The Star, a. a client of the
United Press, yesterday pub
lished a cable from Paris,
PASSED BY THE CENSOR
IN FRANCE, stating that an
armistice had been signed and
hostilities had ceased.
This cable, it now appears,
was not true. Because it was
passed by the censor, The
Star, a. well ~ other papers
thruout the breadth and
length Of the United States,
who take the United Press SER
vice, published the story in
good faith.
The cable had been signed
by United Press Correspon-
dents Howard and Simms,
who, it appears, received their
information from Admiral
Wilson, at Brest, France.
Admiral Wilson passed on
their cable, a. did the censor.
The information the admiral
had at that time was definite
and positive. Later he inform
ed Howard that his original in
formation lacked ~onf;v~a.
ton. Howard then filed a
second cable to that effect,
but the CENSOR held that
up for some mysterious rea-
son, it appears, and the denial
of the first story was not re-
ceived by the United Press till
this morning.
In the meantime, no news
whatever had come from

France, either on the progress
of the various battle actions
or on the armistice. This ap-
parently tended to confirm
the story that fighting had
ceased.
The Star published the ar
mistice story in good faith,
just a. a rival paper in Seattle
did, and just a. various New
York papers, including the
New York World, did, just a.
papers in Chicago, Cleveland,
San Francisco, and papers all
over the United States did.
We were mistaken-but we
were honestly mistaken, just
a. the censor in France was
mistaken and a. Admiral Will
son was mistaken. We hasten
to state the facts frankly.
Incidentally, the citizens of
New York and Chicago and
in some other places tore the
lid off last night and celebrat-
ed the end of the war.
So cheer up and smile. The
"flu" having prevented our
celebrating prematurely, we
can still get up that victory
party.
For the armistice is only a
matter of a few hours now.
The war is won. Victory
is at hand-and we're entitled
to a celebration, even if the
United Press, for the first
time in all four years of the
war, had been tipped off
wrong.

Admiralty Wircaess.eThe Times
war correspondent said:
Tho maguitude Of the victory
Of last weekend becomes every
day moro apparent For . month
or morn tho enemy has been 70
treating on to the limo Of tho
Meusc, but now he has reached
the last stage Of his Journey.
The sure~t sign Of our victory b
that his last stage has been more
rapidly got thru than his first.
"a month ago II seemed possible
that the Germans in France nigh,
be completely enveloped from the
east TO the west 1t was then that
Gen. Ludendorff. who had set the
peace negotiations in motion. drew
back. because he thought the German
armies could be extricated without
disaster.
Dark Prospect
Now the prospect for the German
armies has darkened again. Where
as. n week ago. most people would
have prophesied that the Germans
would escape without irretrievable
disaster. ruin again stares them in
the face. What we are witnessing
now is the destruction of the system
of railway communications which
tempted the Germans to enter Bel
gium. The result of recent opera
tions is that, Of all these lines, only
the one down the valley of the Meuse
is working properly. Two are los,
and OF the remainder the one thru
the Meuse valley is threatened and
the other Metz railway is working In
with a different base, &C
that the east and west wings of the
German armies are now separated.
Pocket Narrowing
'The mouth of the pocket is now
and from Avesnes. east oi
the Normal forest. to Mexieres
where the Meuse railway enters the
cover OF the Ardennes. the distance
is between so and 60 miles.
Thru this narrow passage the
whole OF the German armies now in
France have to squeeze. and there is
only one railway in this region which
is working freely. In other words
the waist of the German lines-say
between Lille and Verdun-has beer
compressed to one-third OF its former
That gives some idea
OF the agony thru which the German
army is now passing.

NEW YORK, Nov. 8.-Yesterday's an
nouncement Of the signing of the armistice
between Germany and the allies was made
by Admiral Wilson at Brest and was filed
10 the United Press with the admiral's ap-
proval. This information was received BY
ths United Press in cablesram from Roy
Practically at the same time another
messaae from Howard was delivered to the
United Press stating that Admiral Wilson
made the announcement in Brest at 4 p. m,
French time, but that later he was notified
hat It was not confirmable.
This latter message filed by Howard did
not show, in the form in which it was de-
hvered, whether it was sent yesterday or
how long IL had been held up.
ACTED IN GOOD FAITH

Wilson acted in good faith stating that he supposed the
noucement was official and therefore, his approval

The United Press today asked the government to

Wilson authorized the announcement and also that ne later
was notified that uncomfortable were held UP by the
censors.
There was reason believe that the message stating
that the news was uncomfortable badly delayed IN view
Of the fact that it received here until almost "a
The messages received today from Howard were as fol-
lows: ~ D.. "A

It will be noted that the first message quoted was
signed by the names of both Howard and Simms and was
filed thru the Paris office in the form the message
received Yesterday every this first quoted message
indicates that probably filed very quickly after the
original bulletin.
The second quoted however, shows clearly by
the reference to the fact that Bres celebrated nghong
that was filed today It also shows that sent direct
from Bres and is signed only by Howard, not bearing
Smms' name.
This message clearly indicated that Howard is in Brest
ho these and those received yesterday are
the only cables which home office of the United Press
has received from him this week.
