VETERANS' DAY
The roar of guns ceased in Eur
ope at 11 o'clock on the morning
of November 11, 1918, after the
signing of an armistice between
the Allies and the Germans
marked the end of hostilities in
World War I.
"Armistice Day" was observed
jubilantly then throughout our
country, but it was not until May
13, 1938, that it was officially
recognized, by act of Congress,
as a legal holiday, to be marked
by a "moment of silence" at 11
a.m.
With the advent of World War
II and during the years immedi
ately following it, "ArmislUce
Day" was not generally observed.
On June 1, 1954, Congress adopt
ed an amendment which changed
the name of the holiday to "Vet
erans' Day."
“We are all links in the chain
of life. No one is complete in
himself. We are each one daily
bearing something onward —
something that contributes to the
world and to experience. And we
never know to what end our in
fluence has been carried.”
“Most arguments are about
things too trivial to be worth
arguing. They waste no end of
time and energy, and get you
nothing but the reputation for
having a mean disposition. Save
your steam for something big
enough to justify it.”
In this day and time doctors
can cut out most anything that
is the matter with you except
your own foolisihness.
