SUNDAY. NOVEMBER I. 1870.
ARAIISTTCE DAY

WO years have passed since America
sheathcd its sword and its millions Of
khaki-clad youth-those OF them whose dust
already was not co~mmingling with the red
dened soil OF France-turned their faces
homeward, their task for humanity COM
plete. On that dAy, November IL, 1918,
when cable aud wireless dashed tidings that
the world war had ended, the merciless
slaughter over, and its lighting men soon
would be coming home. Richmond staged
the most joyous celebration in all its won
drous history. 1t was impromptu, sDon-
taneous, there VS. no program for the fes-
%tivities, but il was all the better for that.
Richmond, oppressed by the long years OF
war, and the knowledge that thousands of
IT'S sons were on every battle Held, was
suddenly released from its tension and. its
great heaTt, pulsat!ng madly with Joy and
ieict, engaged IN a demonstration so tumul-
tuous that none who witnessed; or %partici-
pated in it can ever forget It.
Now there is to be another celebration of
Armistice Day. On Thursday, Richmond
again will give outward evidence of its
feelings toward the mcn-and the women,
too-who made II possible. This wear. how
ever, there Will he a glad difference. The
boys who heard the final laundering of the
great guns two years ago. now are at home
and VIII be the leading spirits In the DAYS
events. In the two years they have re-
: sumed their cfti!ian tasks. They have jus,i-
: fled the faith MAT their experience would
broaden them and make them the leaders Of
- men wherever their lots might be cast. and
ms gives additional reason why this Armis-
ice Day celebration should be made even
more demonstrat tive than the first one.
1T Is gratifying that Richmond generally
is entering so heartily into the plan TO make
II Il notwithstanding celebration. Business
men and citizens in every walk Of life are
cooperating with the American Legion. and
when the service men don their honored
uniforms, and. with the gray-clad hosts Of
the sixties and the veterans of the SPANISH
American conflict, march along Tho citv's
streets as they did on their return from
abroad 1T VIII be II scene to live forever in
memory.
Time soitens the pangs OF grief and heals
the wounds left by war, but the civ will
pause during the celebration TO nav It's fri.
butte OF reverence to those heroes WIN did
not come home. For one minute on that
day, as the clock strikes IL. activity in
every line VIII cease and the heart of every
citizen In Richmond Will be lifted IN in lny.
