This ' day sixteen - ywrs ago^
November 11, 1918—was curi
ously aniet. The excitement that
should have marked the Armis
tice was strangely absent. The
reason was that four days ear
lier, on November 7, a report
was spread that the war was
over, and it roused wild expres
sions of public joy. The report
was premature, but it occasioned
a momentous display of public
intuition. When I left my news
paper office for lunch November
7, the wires had not whispered
a word concerning a general ar
mistice. I had not walked five
blocks before s scream rang over
the street, and there at an up
per window of a department
store a woman stood, her arms
upflung to heaven. What joy or
heartbreak was in her cry is
known to God. But suddenly
crowds came running from every
side. Traffic was smothered. Peo
ple packed the streets from wall
to wall. Voices began to shout,

Crippled Eyes
Handicap Children
Now and Hereafter
Largely as a result of inadequate and improper lighting in
homes and in schools, 25 per cent of children develop defects
of vision before they finish high school. An additional 15 p^
cent are added to these b'efore college days are finished.
Crippled eyes not only handicap your children
■while they are in school, but, in most instances,
handicap them for the balance of their lives.
You don’t want VOUR child handicapped, do you?
You don’t want .vour child hobbling through life
with crippled eyes.
Illuminating engineers have recently designed
certain lamp.s for SEEING.
If your home is not already equipped with an
I. E. S. speciUcation floor or table lamp you
should investigate the advantages of these lamps
at once.
These lamps are not expen-sive. They are attrac
tive, and they do the job for which they were
designed.
WE ARE OFFERING
The I. E. S. specification floor lamp at
$12.95—95 cents down and $1.00 per
month.
The I. E.S. specification study and
reading lamp at $7.50—50 cents down
and $1.00 per month.
The I E S specification floor lamp has a three-light bulb, so. that you may use
100 watts. 200 watts, or 300 watts, depending upon your need at ^ven time.
The study and reading lamp may be had wdth a 100-watt or a 2B-watt bulb.
And here is how ridiculously cheap it is to operate these
lamps: After the use of 30 kwh of electricity.
You can bury a 300-watt lamp three and one-third
hours for 3 cents.
You can burn a 100-watt lamp three and one-third
hours for one cent.
In other words you can use a 300-watt lamp three and o’le-third hours every night
for 90 cents a month; and the 100-watt lamp three and one-third hours each
night for 30 cents a month.

Presently the newspapers came,
loud headlines declaring that no
Mary Susan Shumate, daugh
ter of A. T. and Mrs. Jane Wyatt
Shumate, born August 19, 1907,
died December 12, 1934; age
27 years, 3 months and 24 days.
She is survived by her parents
and the following brothers and
sisters: Mr. Philo Shumate, Red
dies River; Rose Shumate, North
Wllkesboro; Odell Shumate,
North Wllkesboro; Mrs. C. D.
Rash, Wyikesboro; Miss Lillie
Shumate, Reddles River; Mrs. G.
R. Porter, Wllkesboro; and a
host of other relatives and
friends. She was preceded to the
grave by one brothers, Roby
Shumate. Funernl service was
held at the home December 13,
at 1 o’clock in charge of Rev. B.
L. Minton. Her body was placed
in the family cemetery at Halls
Mills. Pallbearers were Travis
Blaylock, Veit Turner, J. I.
Blaylock, and L. H. Shumate.

armistice had been signed. But
the people Hung away official
denials-^tore the papers to
shreds. They knew! Intuition
was independent of cablegrams
from Paris and radiograms from
Berlin and telegrams from Wash
ington. It simply had to be true
that at long last—after fifty-one
months—after four years and
98 days—the war was over.
Their intuition was correct, the
war was over, though as yet the
fact was concealed, awaiting of
ficial arrangements.
And so, when the true Armis-
I tice Day came, November Elev-
! enth. the first ungovernable
surge of excitement had passed.
We were all subdued by the sud
den solemn silence that had fall
en on the world. At the. 11th
hour of the 11th day of the 11th
month the guns had ceased.
Hence, we keep this day ever
since, in memory of those mil
lions of all the nations who ren
dered up their lives—each one
An Unknown Soldier, save to his
comrades and those at home who
loved him; in honor of those
who came back to dislocated
careers, thousands of them with
health and strength impaired,
i These all went forth from the
i occupations of peace, for it is
I the farm and the workshop that
I furnish the men and material of
j war. Swords are always made
I from plowshares—the arts of
peace support it, else war is
done! And one day Peace shall
beat all swords into plowshares]
again. When we saw 131 ships |
of war towed into the Ford Mo-J
tor Company docks—saw their
I mighty hulks sliced by giant
shears, and their well-wrought
steel shaped into motor cars for
the people, it seemed symbolic:
Peace was reclaiming for human
use what had been filched from
la Mae Shumate.
Over 14,000 pounds of poul
