Hopes For Peace on Armistice Day

Armistice day celebrations were made impossible
by the storm, yet the thought paramount in the
minds of people could not be blotted out by
swirlng, windbown and the discomforts of
an early and severe winter visitation.
Peace the foremost topic Of wide discussion
Possibilities that peace may not endure were con-
sidered with misgiving.
Americans generally do not want war; yet they
unified today in program of preparation for
what may be the inevitable fate of the nation, should
some aggressor fit to attack shores.
The first Armstice Day, twenty-five years ago.
was truly armstice, when men laid down their
arms for but short time only to jump at one an
others Threats in another vicious carnage.
Armstice Day of 1910 in America a day for
reflection and "Reminiscences Thoughts turned back
ward twenty-five years ago-looked forward to peace
and the happiness of all peoples. Yet the goes
on and that thought rudely awakens all to the real.
ity Of dangers which exist, and which threaten the
hopes Of people.
