Ho1u Soldiers
Cot the Neus

It was Monday, November IL, 1918.
when hostilities came to an end from
Switzerland to the sea. Twelve years
ago at eleven o'clock of the eleventh
day of the eleventh month-"Finis la
guerre."
1t was memorable day. more
memorable moment when, at the
stroke of eleven. the noise Of cannon
stopped, machine guns grew still, and
rifles ceased to crack. For the first
time in four years the air was free
from flying missiles, and there was
quiet on the tortured face of a war
torn land.
Over here, one remembers the noise
which accompanied the widest de-
lirium of celebration the country ever
has known. But what fingers in the
mind of every man who was member
of the A. E. f. in France is the mo.
ment of deafening silence which pune
tuated the end Of the war.
There could be no noise of celebra-
ton to equal the roar of the war
which certain members of the Amer
lean expeditionary forces had been
engaged in. They had been listening
to the granddaddy of all noises, loud
er noises and more of them than ever
had been heard in the history Of the
world. So it is not the noise which is
memorable to the American soldiers
who were at the front twelve years
ago; it is the sudden, complete ces-
sation of all noise.
Good News Flies Fast.
Along the twenty-seven miles of
front held by Americans, firing con-
tinued literally until the eleventh hour.
Word Of the impending armistice had
spread faster than the flu during the
epidemic. None of the doughboys be-
lieved it at first. They had heard the
same thing before. 1t was just one of
those rumors. Only the preceding
Thursday night-the night the ENJOYS
came over from Spa-some one had
passed the word that the armistice
had been signed and there had been
a small furry of excitement, lights
where there should be no lights and
indiscrlminate firing Of arms result
ing in hard-voiced reprimands.
But this time it was true. From the
wireless station on the Eiffel tower in
Paris Marshal Foch's order to cease
firing at eleven o'clock had gone out
into the air to the half-incredulous
line which the Americans held from
near Sedan to the Moselle.
The high command had notion of
passing the wonderful order along In
military manner, to have the corps
report 1t calmly by wire to the d.
visions. the divisions to the brigades.

iments to the battalions, and so on I'M

about it. But it did not work out
that way.
wireless known to man long before
Marconi was born. 1t started early in
the morning with the first blush of
dawn. 1t ran along a thousand mess
lines of men shivering and stamping
in the mud, gathering their mess gear
and clamoring for chow. Truck driv-
d ers shouted it to one another on the
roads. Dispatch riders flung the words
over their shoulders as they kicked
the stands of their motorcycles into
place and turned on the gas. So over
