A|tMISTICEIMY
Eight years of peace and prosperity—yet
still fresh in the minds of all remain
solemn, reverent thoughts of those bitter
years before the Armistice, when lives
were sacrificed in the Cause of World De
mocracy and Lasting Peace.
As suddenly as they began, the cannon's
fierce roar was stilled—the flames of hate
and fury were quenched and the blood red
clouds of the most titanic struggle the
world has ever known rolled away.
November the Eleventh is Armistice Day
—the birthday of a universal peace.
Let us celebrate this day—in a fitting way,
let us rejoice, but let us not forget our
fallen sons who gave their all, that you and
I might live in peace, harmony and hap
piness.
