NOVEMBER THE ELEVENTH

Friday, November the Eleselllli
in the year of our Lord, nineteen
hundred tWenty-one, marks day
unique in the calendar of nations.
For the first time in history
honors will be paid to a humble
soldier in the ranks, such as have
rarely or never been paid to
royalty itself. The ruler OF the
greatest country in the world to-
day; the victorious held-narshal
Of the mightiest army ever gath
cred under one command; the
chief justice of the highest court
in Christendom; the admiral OF
the most formidable fleet that
ever sailed the main; ambassa-
doris, cabinet officers, senator's,
hundreds of the most distinguish
ed men and women Of three con-
tinents, with thousands upon
thousands Of a citizenry without
superior these will muster into
one mighty assemblage, domlnat-
eddy one sole purpose, swayed by
one sole impulse, to do honor and
paw common tribute to an I'm
known soldier, dead on the field
OF, honor
Without rank, without any OF
the appellations of dignity that
confer distinction. even without
name, this hero-dead Of ours will
receive those more than honors
that are usually paid but to the
high and mighty of the earth.
In how many households OF
this broad land will tears be she'd
and heads be bowed in grief, at
the tender recollection OF some be-
loved countenance some cherish
ed form: some dear. remembered
roice now silent forever.-ln how
many families will the thought
arise. to thrill-perchance to as
suage-that this dead boy may
be their very own.
While he. to whom this hon.
age is paid. will lie Obvious to it
all, draped in the flag OF his coun-
try. to preserve which he died Ill
alien lands. His COMMANDMENTS
chief will pronounce his eulogy;;
his comrades will sound taps; the
bugles will softly breathe dirse;
and his grateful countrymen will
pronounce last benediction.
Thus will Arnisticc Day be OBJ
served in a manner strangely
symbolic. An suspicious opening
for the nations Of the earth who
are assembled to consider how the
enginery Of war may be dinlin-
ished and its cause abated. That
their labors will be crowned with
success, 1t were rash to prophesy.
But equally rash were it to deny
them a contamination Tor the
worlds good.
The age OF democracy for man
kind has arrived. The ceren1on-
les on the eleventh are unim-
peachable evidence. Now, first in
the chronicles Of time, have the
peoples met to consider of war
and peace. And, under divine
guidance. there can be but one is
sue. The people who bear the
burdens, who give up their lives,
who share among them all the
horrors Of war. have spoken al
ready to their ambassadors at the
conference. War must cease and
peace prevail. This is the solemn
mandate and # mist he Needed

The Man About Town spent a
busy morning Watching the votars
turn out to express their opinions via
the ballot on election day. 1t is an
interesting sight, this watching the
average citizen exercise the rights Of
his citizenship. Some of them ap-
proach the polls with the firm and
confident step of the vanquishinC
hero; others linger long as if half
undecided regarding the proper
I course to pursue, and still others
sneak to the polls as if ashamed Of
the inalenable right of free govern
ment. A minority never exercise the
rights they possess, and to that in
different minority may be attributed
much Of the mismanagemcnt attri-

REMEMBER THOSE WHO HAVE GIVEN

REMEMBER THOSE WHO HAVE GIVEN
US OUR LIBERTY-Today is holy day in the
lives of American citizens. 1t is day set apart
in memory of those who bravely walked into the
Valley of the Shadow to give to us the rights
of free men, On this day Americans will do
homage to those who have suffered the pang of
who live to enjoy the fruits of their heroic sacr-
fee.
Today has been set aside as Memorial Day for
the men who fought and bled and died to keep
all the stars in the blue; it is set aside for those
who, with chivalry and love of fellow man un-
equalled in history, volunteered to fight the
Spanish and died in Cuba's miasmal swamps not
only that Cubans might be free but that the Stars
and Stripes might wave in honor wherever free
men tread; it is set aside for those more recent
heroes, the pang of whose supreme sacrifice is
yet fresh in the hearts of loved ones at home for
those who crossed the seas to fight in foreign
lands in order that Americas fair shores might
never be soiled by the footprint of an invader.
Truly this is day when all American hearts
should thrill with PRIDE as it is also day when
wistful eyes will fill with tears at the memory
of those who have gone beyond recall 1t is a
day that should be fittingly marked with evidence
OF the appreciation of the living for the valor of
the dead. America must not forget Others in
future may be called upon to make the sacrifice
for similar cause moved those who lie in Elan
ders' Fields. For all we may wish, the world is
stlliaselhsh and selfshness breeds war
Let the graves of the dead be heaped with
beautiful flowers today in token of love and ap-
probation.
And as we memorabilia the dead, let us not
forget the living. There are thousands of men
alive IN this great land of ours today who risked
as much and perhaps, in last analysis, sacrificed
more for we who live in health and soundness of
body and mind. America has not vet done her
full duty toward the thousands who came hack
rom over There" crippled, broken in body, in
soul, and in mind. Let us not forget.

1921 WILL REWARD HARD woRK-It


not "hard times coming but soft times going
said the Leaders cartoonist in recent illustra-
ton that caused quite bit of comment. A great
many people who should know say that the car
toonist is just about right soft times are go
ing. The times when man could earn money
because he knew how to work, or might know
how if it were necessary. will probably not re-
turn until we have another war. We are not
counting another war very soon so men who
have become accustomed to soldering" at their
jobs had as we'll adapt themselves to the new
conditions that demand dollars worth for a
dollar spent
The next few years are going to reward the
man who can produce the most for what he gets.
1t is production that his income is going to
be based 1921 win reward hard work, and so
will 1922, and 1928, and few years than
that They will shower their boquets on the man
with aggressiveness and energy and ambition
The man who has been able to get by" for the
last five or six years his reputation or his ex-
pectations good excuses is going to have to
reform
That is going to be no less true of communities
and cities than it is OF individuals The hustling
town is the one that will reap whatever harvests
will be sown during the ensuing years of "unsoft
times The lively communities and cities, full
of enterprising and aggressive business men are
going to continue to thrive and prosper The
others are going to dry up.
Fitzgerald is making brilliant start toward
keeping on the map and covering bigger place
on the map than before. Fitzgerads Co-opera-
tive Sale is going to mean future profits to Fitz-
gerald and Fitzgerald merchants as we'll as the
profits of the last four days and the next two
days. The memory will linger in the minds of
people who came and will bring them back at
some future date The advertising has made an
impression on people who did not come and will
bring them here when another effort is made.
Advertising, community as well as individual,
has cumulative value
The Fourth of July celebration is going to be
the second big thing OF the Summer to keep Fitz-
gerald in the hustling, growing class. Other
cities and communities that have held Indepen-
dence Day celebrations in flush years, which in
effect competed with Fitzgeralds event. are 90

1921 is going to reward hard work and aggres-

tonal exercise necessary is going to be only an
advantage to the hustler.
