HISTORY MAKING
For Ten Days Many interesting
Events Have Transplred

events have been transporting.
Thursday of last week the peace
fake was pulled off, and the
demonstrations that followed in
dictated clearly how anxious the
people of this country are for the
war to end.
Germany had already asked an
armistice, and the terms had been
prepared by the allied representa-
tives. They had not, however,
been delivered to the German gov
eminent. Delegates had been APP
pointed and they were on their
way to meet Marshal Foch, who
had been commissioned to de-
liver the terms to the German
Representatives.
The German delegates we're re-
ceiyed by Marshal Foch last Fri
day in a railroad car. in which the
commander-in.chief had his head
quarters.
When the Germans credentials
bad been opened and verified,
Matthias Erzberger, leader of the
enemy delegation, speaking 10
French, announced that the Ger
man government had been advised
by President Wilson that Marshal
Foch was qualified to communicate
to them the allies conditions and
had appointed them pleniposen-
tiaries to take cognizance of the
terms and eventually sign an arm
istice.
Marshal Foch then read tie
terms in loud voice, dwelling
upon each word. The Germans
were prepared by semiofficial com
munications for the stipulations,
as a whole, but hearing set forth
IN detail the concrete demands
seemed to bring to them for the
first time the full realization Of the
extent of the German defeat.
They made few observations,
merely pointing out material diff
culties standing in the way Of
carrying out some quite secondary
clauses. Then Erzberger asked
for a suspension of hostilities in
the interest of humanity. This
request Marshal Foch fatty refused
The delegates having obtained
permission to send courier to Spa
and communicate with that place
by wireless, withdrew. Marshal
Foch Immediately wrote an account
of the proceedings and sent them
by an aide to Premier Clemenceau,
who received them at noon.
The Huns were given Y hours
in which to reach this decision and
to send their answer to the allies.
The time limit expired at 5 o'clock
a. m. Monday, our time, and at ii
o'clock Monday, Paris time.
In the meantime things sensa-
tional we're transporting in Ger
many. The kaiser quit, the crown
prince quit. and others high up
resigned. Emperor Wilhelm's
son-in-law, the duke of Brunswick,
and his successors followed the
kaiser's lead. Imperial chancellor

February Il is Deadline
on War Risk Insurance

February > is the "deadline" on
war risk insurance. and the terrible
sea disaster should be a sufficient
warning to all parents. wives and
other dependents to make application
before that date. Hundreds of mil
lions of dollars of protection to en-
listed mems dependents will be for
feited unless application is made for
men who We're in the service on or
before October Is. 1917.
|, The Pennsylvania Committee on
Public Safety. in these last few days
that remain for this opportunity. is
calling attention to certain facts. The
war risk insurance is backed by the
entire finances of the United States
Treasury, and may be obtained in
amounts of $500 or up to $4,000. \
small monthly payment by a service
man will make provision against
hardships to his family, for a term OF
twenty years If necessary. The rate is
so moderate that practically every
man can give his dependents $4,000
protection. Hundreds of thousands of
soldiers and sailors have overlooked
this means of taking care of their
families in case of death in battle or
crippling by injury or disease.
The privilege is open for only 120
days after a man enters service.

Il hope he will like me-" the girl
said lightly. Il know he will like
Cynthia. Really'-with a candor
that brought a flood of crimson to
Cynthia's face-"she's awfully we'll
worth while, Milton"
Il have already discovered that
after only few minutes acquaint-
ance,' van SaCn remarked gallantly.
Not Mere Compliment
The words We're trifiing and SEEM
ed to mean nothing. yet the glance
| that accompanied them showed that
they were not a mere empty compli-
ment.
1t was after . o'clock when the
butler announced Mr.. Stewart" and
Milton van Saun's friend entered the
library.
Milton sprang to his feet and the
two giEls arose.
odd man." Milton said in his
frank, boyish way, Il want to intro
duce you to Miss Liyingstone-Dora.
You've heard so much about her and
she has heard so much about you
that neither of you should need an
introduction to the other"
I'm mighty glad to know you, Mr..
Stewart" Dora said. shaking hands
cordially. And 1 want you to know
my cousin, Miss Long. She comes
from Chicago-your old home, by the
way"
"Oh, no-only from one of the
Chicago suburbs" Cynthia cor
rected.
We'll, it's all the same" the young
hostess said.
1t did not take long for the two
men and two girls to feel at ease
with one another, and they formed
merry quartet until the clock
struck eleven.
When Mr.. and Mrs. Livingstone re-
turned from the dinner they had
been attending they greeted Milton
and his friend warmly.
Harrisburg telegraph. [volume] (Harrisburg, Pa.) 1879-1948, 1918-02-08

Il am glad to learn that you are
settling in New York. Mr.. Stewart" !"
Mr.. Livingstone remarked. 1--WE hope
to have you in our home very often.
Milton must see that you come when
ever YOU can"
Il shall not need Milton's urging
to make me a frequent visitor" Ger
aid Stewart replied.
Dora surveyed him thoughtfully.
She decided that she liked his looks
and that she liked him. He was as
tan as Milton. but dark instead of
fair, with black eyes instead of
blue. His manner was that of q
man of the world, and the girl found
herself hoping that he and she would
be good friends.
The young men took their depar-
ture soon after the entrance of the
elderly couple. But they promised
to dine with the Livingstones some
evening next week.
Comparisons
Well" Dora said to her cousin
when they had gone to their rooms
and had settled down for n few min
utes' discussion of the occurrences of
the evening, what do you think of
Mr.. Stewart"
why not ask me what I think of
Mr.. van Saun?" Cynthia demanded.
He is the person in whom you
should be most interested"
"Oh, you would like Milton, any
way" Dora said. Every one does.
But 1 have half a mind to try to
bring about a match between you
and Gerald Stewart. Just think what
fun We four could have together!
Dent you think he is a charmer? =?
He's too good a thing for us to al
low him to go out of the family
don't you think so?"
Il think he is very pleasant"
Cynthia admitted.
And good-looking, too." Dora con-
tinued. Really, he is better look
ing in a way than Milton himself is.
Don't you agree with me that he is
a rather more stunning type than
Milton?"
Il had not thought of comparing
the two men," Cynthia evaded.
Then you like them both?" Dora
demanded.
Yes" Cynthia admitted, 81 like

A quarter ounce of freeZone costs
very little at any drug store, but is
sufficient to take off every hard or

tried, as it is inexpensive and is said
not to inflame or even irritate the

Governor Cats has been requested
to call the legislature in special ses-
sion for one picayunish purpose OF
another, but has sensibly declined to
do so. He might, however, serve both
the state and the nation by calling
the legislature together to pass a new
vagrancy law-that is. if it would
pass good law. AS the present vag-
rancy law is framed, a man who
works two days in the week-that is
barely enough to make his own sup
port, is immune from arrest. Under
our present laws, not only the negro
field hand and city semi-vagrant, who
have been so much abused, are prac-
tically burden on the community
but also thousands of white loafers

GARY FRINK

The many friends of Mrs. Sue E.
Frink will be sorry to learn of the
death of her son, Gary Frink, in one
of the Jacksonville hospitals Monday
morning. Mrs. Frink is one of the
oldest and best known inhabitants OF
Marion county. Mr.. Gary Frink left
Ocala as young man and for about
twenty years spent his life in the
great northwest. He was a shepherd
for number of years. The hard
ships of the shepherds life so under
mined his health that he came back
to Ocala about year ago physical
wreck. Under the care of his devoted
mother and a skilful physician he re-
gained some of his former strength
but the havoc of years of exposure
could not be overcome. He gave him
self up to the Good Shepherd" who
"giveth his life for the sheep" Mon
day morning. Mr.. Frink was forty
three years of age. The funeral serv-
ices were conducted in Jacksonville
Tuesday morning, from the undertake
ing parlors of Burns and Campbell,
with Rev. Bunyan Stephens oficiat-
ing. It was great comfort to Mrs.
Frink to be able to have her former
pastor conduct these services. All
the older inhabitants of Ocala and
Marion county, and particularly the
members of the Baptist church, of
which she is a member, extend the
heartiest Christian sympathy to Mrs.
Frink in this hour of sorrow.
