A proper reverence for Armistice Day does not i.eed neces sarily to carry with it a glorification nf war." i Mrs. J. F. AM Regent Dorcas j Bell Love chapter, D. A. R. "No. as i individuals we do, but as people we 1 are inclined to forget in our enthu-I siastic patriotic celebrations the un-, fortunate circumstances which brought about the occasion, particu larly the great universal suffering and too i the intrigues, deception and all for- gclfulness of the Christian spirit, which led up to the consumation of this argument." Mr. W. L. McCracken Past pres j ident Haywood chapter ef the Daugh ters of the Confederacy- No, I do not think we have the proper appre ciation of the day. In the first place the World War was not fought on our soil, and we cannot have the ; same realization of its meaning that I the European countries do. I feel j that we fail when we do not make of A. Bradley World War Vet-i the occasion a day of great thanks- Only the veterans and those giving for peace, and realize what it means to us as individuals and as a nation." . Col, J. It. Howell Postmaster and World War Veteran "No, Armistice Day represents not only the sacrifice of the soldiers, but the people in the United effort of the nation to effect a lasting peace for the world.
