THE ARMISTI6E DAY CELEBRATION AMERICAN LE6I0N ASKS FOR THE SUPPORT OF WATAUGANS After Wood row Wilson explor ed the temple of Prussianismand found the idol to whom the Ger man people had bowed down, an idol having eyes which sec not, ears which hear not the prayers of the civilized world, and a heart like the neither millstone, it be came necessary in order to pre serve the ideals and principles which inspired, our foiefathers in founding this government anrl which we havecherishedthrough all the years, to call this great nation to arms. It was necessa ry to- arrest and bring to sub mission those who were destroy- in the freedom of the world, When the call was made in 1917 for men to champion the cause or liberty witn arms, mere was 'not a Wataugan who flinched in doing his or her bit in bringing the horrible tragedy toa success ful and speedy- close. We shall never forget t h e many heroic things you people of Watauga did for us, nor the paiufnl hours you passed in the spring, sum mer and fall of 191?, the darkest days of the war, when at times it looked as though the whole allied cause might be lost at any time. No one knew whose boy might be called upon to make the supreme sacrifice. But by the heroism of our soldiers, the assistance oi your prayers, and the help of the Divine Providence, we have se cured peace; a peace which we hope may be everlasting, a peace under whose influence human rights may be respected, pros perity and happiness assured and j injustice and crime driven out. The American Legion of Wa tauga county has undertaken to commemorate this peace on the eleventh or Aovemopr uy noiumg a memorial service ' to honor our heroic dead, and to express tnanks fur v ictory and the safp return of the soldiers of the world war to home and friends. We propose to have the biggest celf- bration Watauga has ever had, a celebration in which every loyal citizen may take a part and feel proud. Jn rendering this pro. grain we sincerely call on each and every person in the county to come tp our assistrnce with their person and with their mor al support. As we needed your intej-est during the war, we now neexl your interest and support to uicke this th greatest cele bration in the history of the coun- We state it as our honest belief that the tobaccos used in Chester field are of finer quality (and hence of better taste) than in any other cigarette at the price.

Stand by us at this period as you did in the one just passed and let's give expression to the "Watauga spirit" in a way to promote prosperity and progress We have the resources, iet us give expression to our character. Look for a program to follow in The Democrat. American Legion of Watauga. D. A. BROWN, Acting Publicity Officer. MASONS WILL BUILD FREE HOSPITALS Atlanta, Ga., Sept. 28.- Locat ions of six of the nine free hospi tals for crippled children which the Nobles of the Mystic Shrine are to establish in various parts of North America at a cost of S2. 000.000, have been decided upon by the trustees who met in St. Louis, it was- announced by At lanta Shriners tonight. A hospital to cost 300,000 will be built in St. Louis and institu tions costing $200,000 each will be erected in Shreveport, San Francisco, Portland, Oregon, the twin cities of St. Paul and Min- jneapolis, and Montreal, Canada. Locations of the other three, one of which is to be in Virginia, one in New England and one in cen tral Pennsylvania according to present plans will be determin ed upon at a meeting of the trus tees next January. The first proposal of the Shri ners was to build an immense hospital at St. Louis as a monu ment to the Masonic organization but Forrest Adair, Past Poten tate of Yaarab Temple. Atlanta, who promoted the Scottish Rite hospital for crippled children here several years ago, was suc cessful in his plan to. "take the hospitals to.the children." The St. I-iouis hospital will have eigh ty beds and the others, modeled a fter the one here, will hold six ty beds each. The trustees reeently inspec ted the local hospital and it was announced that $950,000 of the fiind already had been collected .lnd that the remainder is due next January 1. Each shriner has been assessed $2 annually for building and maintaining in stitutions. Normalcy In Industries.
