On this first anniversary Of the
armistice that brought fighting to
an end on the western front, We re-
call with gratifIcltion the services
of the army aud the country in the
war. The great army of young
manhood known as the American
Expeditionary Forces was hurried
ly raised, equipped and trained to
meet a grave world crisis. Com
posed of youth selected for their
physical and their mental fitness.
it was developed into as fine a
body of men as the world has ever
seen. This force played a decisive
part in the war and demonstrated
that, while we are not military
nation, the American boy nas in
him those qualities that go to make
up perfect soldier. The achieve
ments of our troops on the battle
fields of France have become a part
of our history and need not he
again recounted here. Their pa

To Ny Fellow Countrymen:
A year ago today our enemies
laid down their arms in accordance
with an armistice which rendered
them impotent to renew hostilities,
and gave to the world an assured
opportunity to reconstruct its shat
tered order and to work out in
peace a new and juster set of in

and people of the European Allies
had fought and endured for more
than four years to uphold the bar

gressions of armed force We our
selves had been in the conflict some
thing more than year and half.
With splendid forgetfulness of
mere personal concerns we remod-

our financial resources, increased
our agricultural output, and as

the last our power was a decisive
factor in the victory. We were able

oLD-TIME COLD CURE
DRINK HOT TEA!

Get a small package of Hamburg
Breast Tea at any pharmacy. Take
tablespoonful of the tea, put cup of
polling water upon it, pour through
sieve and drink teacup full at any
time during the day or before retiring.
1t is the most effective way to break
cold and cure grip, as it opens the
pores of the skin, relieving congestion.
Also loosens the bowels, thus breaking
up a cold.
Try it the next time you suffer from
cold or the grip. 1t is inexpensive
and entirely vegetable, therefore safe
and harmless.
