YOU CAN BUY MILK IN
ONE WATERFOWL STORE

The milk situation in Watertown is
quite serious since the grocery stores
have stopped selling the article Time
was when one could go to a store and
buy bottle of fresh milk when there
was a scarcity of the tactical fluid at
home, but that all is changed and now
the stores refuse to handle it Just as
the cold season is approaching when it
could be handled without the neces-
sity of ice to keep it from souring.
Someone is to blame for this condi-
ton of affairs, but one puts the blame
on the other and in the meantime the
people suffer-
1t is gratifying to note, however,
that one Maiu street business store
still sells fresh milk. This is the del
icatessen store at 314 Main street
where bottled milk can be purchased
as we'll as groceries and the like The
lady proprietor of this store is deserv-
ing of generous patronage in repay
ment for the great accommodation she
is rendering the purchasing public.

WATERFOWL news
FIRST IN THE FIELD
With PEACE NEWS
Extra On the Streets at Loo T. M.
and Biggest Celebration Ever
Known i'm WATERFOWL Follows
the Glad TidingS.

AS usual the Watertown News was
the first in the field to announce that
hostilities had ceased overseas and
that Germany had signed the armis
tice. Later in the afternoon associ-
ated press dispatches stated that
Washington had not confirmed the
story but this did not dampen the
ardor Of the people who flocked down.
town when the ringing of bells and
blowing of whistles announced that
peace had come to the world at last.
1t was the biggest demonstration ever
seen in Watertown and the same was
true of most all the cities in the coun-
try. The news reached Watertown at
IL o'clock and was afterwards con-
firmed from another city, but as it
was the noon hour nothing was done
until 1 p. m. about issuing an extra.
Within half an hour huge parade
had formed in Main street, the school
children and thousands of other citi-
zens joining in, all waving United
States flags, while the city band, a
drum corp and Northwestern college
band furnished the inspiration. Thou
sands stood in the rain with uncov-
cred heads as the bands played Ame-
RIGA and Star Spangled Banner. George
Wenck, one of the musicians climbed
the traffic cop at Main and Second
streets and led the singing as did
also Will Sproesser in another part
of the street
The parade moved along Main and
West Main streets dozen times in
the afternoon while the fire bells and
whistles contributed to the general
jollifcation.
In the parade was the old ambul-
ance inscribed as follows: KAISER
Bills Last Ride" and ITO Hell With
the Kaiser"
The celebration continued during
the evening when the Watertown
guards led the whole town in a mon
ster procession.
