Armistice Day.

Armistice day has become eStab
lished as a time of recollection and re-
view Memories of the event of No
vember II, 1918, when the last shot in
the Great War was fired and peace
succeeded to strife, are revived by the
annual observance of the signing of
the truce in the forest of Compiegne,
in France. There was wild rejoicing
in all lands, even in those countries
that bowed their heads in defeat. The
terrible slaughter was ended, the dev--
astation of conflict was checked. Ad
justments and settlements had yet TO
be made, and they proved to be diff
cult Of arrangement, and in their max
ing they led to many complications
and caused much bitterness. But the
great achievement of the armistice
lay in the stopping of the bloodshed.
1t took only few days to precipi-
tate the war. 1t took months to effect
a peace treaty. and it has taken years
to restore the world to a semblance OF
stability following the cataclysm. In
the nine years that have elapsed since
the armistice great progress has been
made, considering the difficulties to be
overcome. Amenities have been estab-
lished and maintained between for
merly warning nations. The new
states resulting from revision of the
map Of Europe have maintained them
selves. Difficult problems remain.
chiefly economic. The question of the
war debts owing to the United States
by its former allies is not fully settled.
Some of the ideals of American states
manship inspired by the conflict have
been unrealized. Guarantees against
future wholesale combat are still
lacking.
Yet Armistice day this year finds
the safeguards against recurrence of
conflict stronger than they were when
the armistice was signed. In the
clearing up Of questions relating to
the causes Of the war there has come
about a better understanding between
the peoples. While pessimists con-
tinue to predict another general out
break. feeling prevails throughout
Europe and America that there is less
likelihood of such a disaster with each
successive Armistice day.
Ten years ago at this time the
United States was just getting into
the fighting. It's troops were at the
front engaged in actual warfare. 1t
had begun to feel its losses. 1t was
realizing that participation in the war
entailed severe sacrifices. Yet there
was no diminution Of spirit, no slack
ening of ardor, no inclination to re-
consider the decision of April, 1917,
which placed this country on the fight
ing line. In the year that followed
its losses multiplied, its sorrows deep
ened, but its spirit did not flag. In the
final stage of the war it was the Amer
ican contribution to the allied cause
that decided the great event. So that
the news of the armistice came to
America as tidings OF a victory
achieved, and hence it is that in cele-
bration of this day there is feeling
Of pride Of achievement, as well as of
the deepest gratitude for those who by
their sacrifice made it possible.
