ARMISTICE DAY PLEDGE is
ISSUED
CBy International News Service)

NEW YORK, Nov. 11.-National
Commander F. W. Galbraith, Jr., of
the American Legion today issued
the following statement apropos of
Armistic Day
"The swift triumph of our arms
and those of our gallant allies, which
two years ago gave us the victory,
the anniversary Of which we cele-
brate today, marks the high-light of
the present century in American af-
fairs. Victories such as Armistice
Day commentaries are not the issues
solely Of clashes of flesh and steel,
They are of finer quality than that
They are the triumph, as well, of an
unconquerable spirit.
"No victory, however complete,
long can survive the spirit that con-
ceived it. The annals Of mankind are
replete with examples: splendid tri-
umphs in behalf of splendid causes
that have gone for naught because
the spirit that made them ceased to
endure.
"This is only the second anniver-
sary of Armistice Day-a day des-
tined. if we will, to keep company
with the immortals of the calendar
that mark great moments of history
that shall never die. Succeeding
generations will acclaim Armistice
Day. God grant they always shall ac-
claim it in the spirit that made it and
that this spirit like the day, shall be
with this prayer in our hearts let
US renew each year our vows of
fealty, repledge and keep unchake-
able our faith in the high ideals, the
loftq purposes, the unselfish aspira-
tions and exalted, holy hopes that
fired the hearts Of Americans in 1918
and made ours a land from whence
crusaders came, with souls aflame,
worthy of their victory.
"To this end the American Legion,
today and forever, solemnly pledges
its all.

If profit would be larger.


By running twenty-four hours the
creamery could make three times
what it is at present, with no extra
investment in machinery. buildings
or other equipment, but it would re-
quire several times the present
capital to handle such a volume Of
business, and this capital should be
provided.
We are very much in hopes that
the people will take more interest in
the creamery and put in some more
money. The business can succeed
only in proportion to what is put in
it and there is no reason why the
bunch already interested cannot
make it one Of the big institutions OF
