Judge Montgomery
Addresses ROtarianS

Judge Charles w. Montgomery OF
Newark, was the guest speaker at
the Rotary club meeting which was
held at the Kennebec hotel Friday
evening. Judge Montgomery was
major in the World war, and has
OF the court of appeals Of this dis
trict. He delivered an Armistice
day message. Some of the points
he touched on were: When the Ar
mistice was signed, Nov. IL, 1918,
1t was peace mixed with delirium--
4 what did the declaration mean 20
the world-he said Germany was
sullen and defiant; to Great Britain
it meant increased burden and prob
lens, to France desolation-1.- :
$4,000 men dead, or helpless; to
the United States, that not again
would nation attempt to dictate
how or in what channels should our
vessels travel the oceans, and it al
so showed to the world the strength
of this country when aroused; tina.
without this country's aid, Germany
would have won the war; that 1t
was our money that won the war.
Our dead, he said, numbered in
round figures, $4,000 on the field
of battle. and more than that mum
belr, as the result of the war. He
said ''all honor to those who gave
their lives, or offered their lives
no tribute is too great to them"
The speaker brought out that at the
close of the war was imitation, and
wild extravaganza and people seem
ed to forget that there was such a
thing as a law of compensation
and that there would come time
for paying. Judge Montgomery said
they sowed in extravaganza and
they are reaping in humiliation
they speculated and then came the
collapse, and they have been reap
ing the penalty. The speaker said
''in what spirit have they paid
and answered by saying they cried
to Washington to restore to them
what they lost-.asked for. laws to
do for them what they should do
themselves" Judge Montgomery con-
tinued, "they should follow certain
laws, and remember that individuals
cannot borrow themselves into pros
perity."
On Armistice day, the speaker
stated, we should speak of things
fundamental, and he asked what is
the relative saIns duties ct ct citizen and
the state, and it is the duty of the
state to guarantee the individual
life, liberty and the pursuit of hap
piness." He concluded with the ad-
monition to American people to hold |
fast to American government. Judge !
Montgomery is an eloquent speaker, |
and was given very close attention.
Special invited guests of the Ro, |
tarians included about 20 members |
of the American Legion; eight mem |
bers of the Morgan County Bar as
sociation, and four other guests. In |
all 53 were present. Rufus Brown,
the president, presided, and Harry |
A. Phillips, chairman of the pro- |
gram committee, introduced the |
speaker. Mr.. Phillips and Judge |
Montgomery's families have been |
close friends for many years.

ians entertain at dinner the foot |
