Fighting on the battle fronts end
ed at 8 o'clock Monday morning
Eastern time, in the United States
The armies of the allied forces at
that time-even to the second-were
hard harrying the enemy.
The British troops were fighting
their foes across the Belgian frontier
in Belgium. The French had all but
cleared the Germans from northern
France. The Americans were driv-
ing northward up the Meuse and Mo
selle rivers, threatening the enemy
with capitulation By development.
The hostilities ended on the elev-
enth hour Of the eleventh day of the
eleventh month Of 1913. The Amer

eyes We're on their wrist watches as
they advanced up the Meuse and Mo-

Continue Firing Until Late

Celebrators of peace who were not
satisfied with the noise of the day
continued it until nearly midnight.
The rattle Of the revolver and rifle
fire was almost continuous until bed
time. AS one citizen expresses it,
"I never knew there were so many
guns in Mena before" One enter
prising celebrator who evidently
thought the last blast best. waited
until nearly Ii o'clock to fire off
several charges Of dynamite south Of
city. Merchants who expected to
find their stocks cf empty barrels
and boxes gone Tuesday morning
were surprised to learn Mena had
allowed the celebration to pass by
without at least one real big bon
fire.
