The minds of many ex-service men will revert today to the scenes thai were being enacted one year ago today in France. Twelve months ago today at the eleventh hour, firing ceased all along the line. History in the future will speak of the Armistice as the first successful attempt to stop fighting at a given time in the annals of modern warfare. The event is all the more dramatic in view of the unexpectedness of the outcome of the war. It was on this day a year ago that the 81st or Wildcat division suffered the greatest mortality. They had just taken their places in line in the great Meuse Argonne offensive and were stationed in and around Verdun. For days following the big drive in the Argonne, begun in the last days of October, the Hun had been forced back mile after mUe. One village alter another fell. Fort after fort changed hands for the last time. All up and down the Meuse river, the stream which now takes its place in history along with the Marne, the Rappahannock and the Potomac, from Verdun to Seaan, the American forces were hurling back the Hun. "-Deeds of heroism were wrought in those last few hours be tween daybreak and eleven o'clock of that memorable Mon day. Many a life was lost in the last few minutes. Platoon after platoon crossed the river under murderous machine-gun fire. Whole companies were wiped out. All arms and ranks took turns in serving the guns for one Inst shot at the enemy and this mad firing made the last moments cf the war most deadly of its whole course. And then came the hour of eleven. From an inferno of death, fire and destruction, the seen-:' almost as if by magic became one of quiet and calm. A strange deathlike stillness settled over all before the full significance came of what it all meant.

Mecklenburg has four avowed candidates for the Demo cratic nomination Messrs. J. D. McCall, John A. Mcliae. W. C. Dowd and Marvin Hitch with the candidacy of Mayor V. K. McNinch apparently a certainty. Assistant District Attorney Clyde R. Hoey, of Shelby, also is an avowed candidate and former Judge W. B. Council, of Hickory, some months ago was announced as in the race but littie has been heard of his candidacy in recent weeks. Marvin Piitch has apparently gummed the works in Meck lenburg by refusing to enter the preferential primary decided upon to eliminate some of the candidates in .that county for the purpose of centering all of the -strength' on one man. Unless some such scheme can be evolved, the chances of any one of the candidates are slim. ! : -i !.':ltl. - .. - i.; t-.o st.'.t.'. 1 t'ull.iv, I! u: I'll'' :' tin- i!i.'i'" ii.u . !:.-'; ; . . ::'-!iii: ii e: i -- .1 ! ;,i . n : !illi:i.t ir III.

Every business and professional man in North Carolina, every banker, every merchant, is vitally interested in the bus- inpss surrpss nf trip rotnn nrnrlnrpr urn! in thin rn iatinn Do you remember back in 1892 to 1894, when cotton went aown 10 cents a pounu : Surely you will recall in 1914, when war was declared, and that quick drop to 6 cents. And then it will be easy for jou to remember how hard it was to make both ends meet how your living problem grew all out of proportions. You will remember this, whether you are a banker, merchant, doctor, lawyer, dentist, school teach er, or whatever your business may be. Some of you who, read this remember that you could not even meet your grocery bills. And as for comforts, they were a thing of the imagination. So your own future, and your own success, and your most vital interests as a business man are all wrapped up in the well being of the cotton producer. You "absolutely depend upon the man who grows cotton. If. he succeeds, so do you. If he fails, you do likewise. We therefore know, Mr. Business Man, that you will ioin the American Cotton Association and help in its organization. The Cotton South must be emancipated. The Business South demands it. You are a great part of the Business South. And the opportunity for such emancipation lies in the Amer ican Cotton Association. Do you know that Northern manufacturers of cotton goods are organized? They are reaping the benefits of their organi zation. Who isn't organized these days? If the Southern cotton grower is to get what is due him ive also must get together and become organized. He must come prepared to talk back to be. in a position to name his price, .and then see that it is paid. There is just one way to do it only one way to uphold farm prosperity in the South, which means general Southern business prosperity and that is to organize, and organize in the right way. The American Cotton Association, composed of Southern farmers, Southern merchants, Southern bankers, and Southern business men, offers the great opportunity. Will you take it7 Who can offer you anything better? The Red Cross Roll Call ends tomorrow. Can you cele brate Victory Day With a clear conscience if you have not had a heart and a dollar for that cause? . . . ... ..I t I Ii :!.. ... ii is i " ,it s. ,... . t' tin-. ' .i ii In a; ..ill. '.
