The Fall Of I91S,

The tall OF l9TS.
Searchlights play upon a crossroads
not far from Sedan. Into the zone Of
light three limousines come creeping
under white flags Of truce. They
bear a German delegation seeking al
armistice.
The Germans are met with every
courtesy. French officers enter their
cars to guide thcm over the dark
roads until Chateau Frankfort. in the
forest of Comp!egne, is reached.
There a stop is made for the night.
And the next day they move to
Senlis. where. in a railway car. sits
the maker of history.
AS the Germans enter the car he
rises to meet them.
What do you wish. gentlemen?
His voice is tense. but calm.
I'VE have come. Marshal, to ar
range terms Of an armistice."
His reply we do not know. 1t may
have been:
The terms. gentlemen, already
have been arranged"
Then he reads to them the program

AS he read there was no tone Of ex-
altation in the voice Of this wiry.
silver haired man. There was no at
tempt at vain triumphing. But way
down in his heart was stamped the
burning picture Of another surrender.
when he had stood among the van
quished. For the man who read to Ger
many the terms of surrender which
she must accept, and the freshly COM
missioned cadet Of the Emperor's
staff at Sedan, was the same Ferdi-
nand Foch. today a Marshal Of
France and Generalissimo of Allied
Armies.
The first picture, that Of Chateau
Bellevue. was drawn by Foch him
self many years ago. while chatting
in a. Paris club with an old Bostonian.
who has resided in the French cap
ital the last 80 years. The second
might have been seen last Saturday
at Foch's headquarters near Compile
gne.
Never has the hand Of fate done its
work better. For nearly so years the
young officer who had witnessed the
surrender at Sedan had
been working to- save France from
another such scene. "Revanche" had
been his watchword. the burning rec
objection, the spur. He became pro-
fessor in the military college, and
placed .in the minds Of his pupils the
ideals that stood in his own.
Finally, came the great war. Many
Of the French officers. a whole gen.
GRAFTON Of them, had been trained I'M
der Foch. and had been trained well.
For four years. under the heaviest at
tacks known. the French stood like
wall. They had been pushed back,

Peace, and the world rejoices,
Hearts Of all agiow'
Over the hills loud voices
The winds Of freedom blow!
In the skies of Bethlehem
Soundeh the song today:
Peace is earths fzirest diaden-
So the world for aye!
Peace, earth has given her dearest,
They sleep where peoples blow!
They hear earth's acclamatons-
Joy OF the world they know!
They wake from their sleep and whisper
Weep not glad died
The Joy of earth is joy
We live though crucihed."
Peace, let the children sing it,
Peace, let the old cry!
Peace, let each mother breathe it
Peace that shall die,
Peace forever and ever,
It has been born again:
Let every Race proclaim it
Forgotten the worlds paint
Peace each soul that suffers
Peace each breaking heart,
Peace Christ gave his disciples
Peace, Of the spirit a part.
Peace, let the lilies blossom
Hang the walls wars drum!
God is still with his children.
Peace to the ages come!
