~ to Honor Fallen Heroes \,
in World War
NORCOM FOR GLOOM IN T
AFTERNOON AND EVENING
Local Business Men Asked to
Decorate Their Stores in
Honor of Occasion

With all plans completed for the
Arnoistice Day celebration here Fri
dav. the Ralph Oracle post Of the
American Legion is now virtually
waiting for the days to roll around.
But while the members are waiting,
they are working, putting on the I'M
ishing touches to well outlined pro
cram of celebration and ceremony.
The heaviest part of the work will be
done Friday, making the new armory
ready for each attraction there.
Committee chairmen made reports
of progress at the; regular meeting
of the post Tuesday evening, and the
gen eral spirit of the post now is:
@"Let's Co., Everything points to a
bigger and better celebration than
that which was staged by the post
last year.
With the American Legion Auxili-
airy assisting at the dance and car
nival in the evening and also at the
free dinner for ex-service men at
the association rooms about 6 o'clock,
these two features are sure to 60
over big.
With a boxing card, which is sure
to be faster than that staged by the
post March l l, this monstrous under
taking promises to be very successful.
The post has gone to heavy expense
in securing matches which promise
action. So far the sale Of tickets is
satisfactory. Proceeds from the box
ing show will 60 toward the posts
disabled and needy ex-service mems
fund. u.. y"
Hundreds of former service men
are to be here from nearby commun-
tiles. The reception committee will
meet all trains, escort the visitors to
the Elks' club rooms, headquarters
for the day. There they will be regis
tered and given free ticket to the
supper in the evening.
d The parade, which will be the open
ing attraction of the day, is to form
at the City building at 10:45. All ex-
service men are requested to appear
in uniform. The old Home Guard
band and the Juvenile band will fur
nish> the music for the parade which
begins at II o'clock and winds up at
the new armory about II 80. School
children, students from the State
Teachers college, the Naval Militia
and National Guard units, the Am
erican Legion and all other ex-ser-
vice men and the general public will
make up the parade, which is to march
through the downtown business dis
tricts.
IL AS soon as the crowd is seated in
the new armory, following the par
AIDE, appropriate ceremonials will be
held to honor the service dead and
the unknown hero being laid to final
rest in Arlington cemetery From
IL to 1902 all will stand with bowed
heads in silent prayer for the boys
who "went west" A patriotic speech
by Bishop Bennett of Duluth will
follow. He is most able speaker
and every one is urged to hear him
at this time. A number of vocal Sc.
lections, community songs, invocation
and benediction will complete the
program.
While the three motion picture
houses, are staging special matinees
from 1 to 8 o'clock, the armory will
be made ready for the big boxing
show at 3:15.
Soon after the close of the fights

London's own pet civic paradc--thc
"Lord Mayors Show
Londoncrs themselves agree that
the "show' is am anachronism, but
the Lord Mayor who attempted to
dispense with it would be exceeding
Iy unpopular.
Starting from the Guildhall shortly
before noon, the procession wound its
way through broad and narrow city
streets, and arrived at the High
Courts Of Justice on the Strand. The
procession included dctachmcnts of
the various London Territorial rcgi-
mcnts, horse foot and guns, police
and fire departments, by scouts, tri-
umphal cars, a score Of bands and the
officials of the ancient city guilds
with macc-bearers, chamberlains

turcsquc parade.
Arriving at the High Courts, the
Lord Mayor, who drovc,fn his famous
state coach, was received by the Lord
Chief Justice and the whole of the
High Court Judges, and in their pres
ence took the prescribed oath of
Office.
Tonight the Lord Mayor will give

George Bauer of St. Paul and JIM

deavored to bring the best of fighters
here for this occasion, at, the same
time securing fighters light enough
to promise action. Although the COM

fans that this card will equal or even
surpass the card staged here March

Washington is about to take Its
place definitely as a world capital,
with the gathering of foreign piem-

Probably never before has this

strange "lingoes" faces and
strange customs making this city
start, and turn around to look.
While many of the policies of the
American government undoubtedly
will be for different, many things
about the Washington conference Will
be the same as the Paris conference.
