ITO THOSE WHO SLEEP"

TO THOSE WHO SLEEP"
A moment Of reverent prayer
for those who gave their lives.
4 turning back of the mind to
that day, in 1913, when the guns
stopped their laundering ana
peace came to tortured world.
Just brief moment Of retro
crcct.on and a taking count Of
sock since the tide Of peace left
us stranded in a mis-shapcn
world. Saturday is Armisticc
Day.
Each year it brings home to
us more forcibly the lessons that
were dearly learned and which
can never be forgotten. Each
Passing day sees us one step fur
cher on the road to a better I'M
Outstanding, individually, na-
ticnalIy and as citizens Of The
world.
Out OF the chaos Of war and
crime, there has come the aooth-
ing calm of peace
From the graves Of those who
threw from hand to hand the
burning torch there comes 81
lent message; a message from
the most that met the one great
test, unfnchingly, mafraid, the
host that stirs our minds to meet
the challenge that the Problems
Of the day bring forth.
They lie, those heroes Of the
silent host in Flanders fields, in
cur own beautiful resting
grounds, impassive, still, but
welding power, in their very
silence, that because Of their
sacrifice, has carried us, the
survivors,, far on the> road to-
ward better, more unselfsh
world. Our ideals will never be
achieved. They would not
be ideals otherwise.
Our utmost hopes can never
become facts. They were not
hopes otherwise.
Our ultimate aim will never
be achieved, so it is written in
The history Of the ages for US to
read.
All Of these, our ideals, our
hopes, our aims, can become
the mleashed power that drives
us to fresh initiative in the
world of greed and selfshness,
However, that We may by our
own individual example, force
from it some measure of what
these who died and those who
lived, strove for cover there"
There is pathos and JOY alike
in this day of mingled ceiebra-
ton. To those who have the
memories Of dear ones who sleep
in the heroes graves, it is per-
force, day Of sadness.
TO those who returned TO
carry on, it is a day of JOY and
gladness. To Us all, veteran and
layman alike, it is a day when
we can reconsecrate our lives
to those splendid ideals that
made victory possibla and
brought forth the message to
The world that on the hour of Il
on the 18th day Of the 18th
month, 1918, the greatest men
ace civilization has ever known,
had been turned back and de-
feated and Peace had come

Washington.-Decision of ''big navy"
men on the heels Of their big victory
for bigger enlisted force, not to offer
amendments to the 1923 naval bill pro-
viding money increases for shore sta

Starting unexpectedly, it ragged for
an hour or more and drew many into

eleventh hour was questioned by

It Was Embarrassing.

A handsome and wealthy young man
from the East, visiting in the small
town where my aunt lived as a girl,
seemed interested in her and she was
doing her best to outshine the other
girls of the town.
With her hair done up in curriers'
and her stylish instep length skirt
draped carefully to one side, she lay
resting in the outdoor hammock one
quiet summer day. Suddenly startled
by the creaking Of the gate and the
unexpected appearance Of the city lad,
she overturned the hammock, which
became wrapped about her knees and
held her long legs straight up in the
air. The young man. CALAMITY enough,
rushed to her rescue; but she never
saw him again.-Chicago Tribune.
