worse. Then there were several talks
by representative men. including a
very excellent plea for the United
War Fund by DIR. E. C. Horn, short
talk in the Russian language by NJ.
Kanevesky, talk by w. H. Gold and
one by J. F. Conner. Nearly every
one in III, crowd had something to
say, but as most Of them preferred
to sing it or yell it is was rather diff
ficult to listen to anything even re-
motely resembling real addresses.
Fire works, dance on the pavement
CD of the main street, and lots of
noise AID a general joyousness COM
pleted the evening. The entire ev-
ening was of necessity spent out of
doors, and therefore anything like a
formal program had to be omitted.
There were many interesting fea-
lures of both the afternoon and ev-
ening, many people revealing, in the
way in which they "let loose" in their
joy, jus how tense and anxious the
last months have been. The boys
who will not return were not forgot
ten even in the joy brought by the
peace news, and the stars Of gold
on the service flag were never so
bright and shining as when they were
looked at through the misty eyes of
those who recalled at what terrible
price the JOY of the day had been
purchased. AS Mr.. Conner intimat-
ed in. his talk, the occasion had in
it some Of the sweet sadness of the
First Christmas, and if the boys who
have given this community its place
at the peace table could have looked
on they would undoubtedly have felt
that their work was well done.
There are still a few unexplained
things about which the public is still
questioning as "where did Dan
Crimmins get that mattress which
represented Johnnie Bulls pomposity"
where did the minister of the Metho-
dist Church learn so many dance
stepsrs;;&"w what did NJ. Kanevesky say
in his speech; did H. G..
Schmahl get his quarter-keg" where
did the other fellows get theirs" AID
similar questions.
