FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 11, 1921 A Historic Armistice Day Gathering The American people celebrated the first Armistice day by ringing the bells and by boisterous expressions of joy. They celebrated the second with cold feelings of disillusion creep- ing over them. They observed the third in deeper gloom, feeling bitter- ly disappointed that the results ex- pected from the war were slow in materializing. With the coming of the fourth. November 11, our people have pass- ___ed the exuberance of victory and the disappointment of the anti-climax. Now they, have takeruhold like-those who realize that only through effort and co-operation and practical wis- dom can the world order be securely rebuiTtT They have signalized the 7 by calling a meeting that ought to be a landmark in history, the con- ference to limit armaments. The world can not pay its burden of debt and repair its losses, if at the same time it frrnTK^arry the crushing load of armies and navies which the war spirit "has placed on the backs of the nations. Many people who admit this truth, yet will haggle and quibble about _^_fine points, and would consent to no. reduction of armament unless they were sure that other powers were reducing a little more. But the Unit- ed States is in a position to be gen- erous: Tt is the world's strongest power, hence the one least likely to be attacked. Weaker nations naturally feel sus- picious of a strong nation that arms heavily. They have some reason to insist that it take the lead in cutting down its military force. Our country must put itself in the place of others, and ask how our people would feel, if a more powerful neighbor were arming to the teeth. „ The people who say there always will be wars, are probably descended from those who during the chaotic "middle ages, said there would never â€"be esta4»4rshed institutions and courts of Justice and a government of law and Order.

Church and other gatherings are being held for bringing fathers aTul sons into the same social oc- casion. Too frequently a wall of ase separates father and the boys. Father gets , the idea that the youngsters are so crude and im- mature that they are no| interesting. Perhaps he wants to do things that they will regard as too interesting. The boys look at father as a dull old fogy. Age loses~vitality if it cannot sympathize with youth. Youth is a shallow stream, if it does not look into the depths of wisdom that age brings. Any occasion that brings fathers and sons together ought to help both get more out of life. â- â- rr Best Shingles on Earth for roof or side walls for looks and wear We carry a few colors in stock and can order special colors as desired. / < CREO-DIFT" STAINED SHINGLES 30 Colors 17 Grades 16-18-24-Inch They last twice as long as brush- coated shingles*or natural wood; are proof against dry rot, decay, worms and weatherT They^ave the time, muss and odors of staining on the jobâ€"arid cost less.
