ARMISTICE DAY SUCCESS DESPITE LOWERING CLOUDS HUNDREDS OF VISITORS.

Rain Failing To Dampen Ardor Of the Boys.
EVERYTHING READY
AND WITH GOOD WEATHER THIS AFTERNOON AND NIGHT THE BOYS WILL BE “JAKE”


The big day started off early as many of the boys never went to bed last night but stayed up to be on time the first thing in the morning and long before daylight they were out sounding the bugle calls and driving trucks with the cut-out open and backfiring the engine and by seven o clock it is probable that more people were awake early in Sanford than have been since Armistice Day two years ago.
The boys were busy as bees until parade time getting the wheels of fortune and other amusements ready and making all secure for the dinner and the dance tonight and all the other little details that go make up the big time.
The parade started promptly at 10 o’clock on Oak avenue led by the Kissimmee band and it was an inspiring sight to see the boys of the army and navy all resplendant in their uniforms that had been laid away in moth balls for the past year or more.

The parade was probably one of the largest and best arranged that has ever been pulled off in Sanford and this was due to the military precision with which it was carried out. Under the command of Colonel Geo. W. knight, and his efficient staff, the parade started on Oak avenue promptly at ten and to the inspiring strains of “Over There” the Kissimmee Band under the leadership of Capt. Gallagher, led the boys out with chests out and eyes front and the colors first with the color guard of the army and navy followed by a long line of soldier boys and sailors that thrilled the assemblage of people thronging the sidewalks along the line of march. The float, Uncle Sam and Miss Columbia, came next with Robt. Herndon driving, R. A. Terheun representing Uncle Sam with an original makeup and Miss Columbia represented by Mrs. Robt. Herndon. The Red Cross nurse by Mrs. Burdick and guarded by the army and navy; the float being decorated in Florida moss, pine needles and vines. This float received the applause of the crowd all along the way.
Behind Uncle Sam was the Chaplain’s car, driven by Chaplain Geo. Hyman, with little John Hyman in uniform sitting on the hood and Cr. Brower of the congregational church, and Dr. Walker of the Methodist church, and R. J. Holly, of the Y. M. C. A., occupying the car which was decorated in red, white and blue bunting and carried the insignia of the 82nd Division, the All Americans and the white crosses of the chaplain.
The Wreath car of the American Legion, was beautiful, being driven by Walter Connelly and containing the wreath for the boys who died in the service of their country and held a guard of honor.
The navy had a fine float representing a ship and filled with sailors the car being driven by Ed. Ward.
The D. A. R. car was driven by Hawkins Connelly and contained Mrs. W. E. Watson, Miss Morrison, Mrs. A. R. Key, Miss Wilkey, Mrs. Forrest Lake and Mrs. Louckes and was decorated in myrtle over a while background and hybiscus entwined in the Myrtle and bearing the insignia of the D. A. R. on the side.
The B & P car of Perkins & Britt was among the beautiful cars being driven by Lieut. Kenneth Murrell, accompanied by Dixie Brown and held by little Braxton Perkins, Charles Britt, Wanita McMillan, Wanita Smith and Margaret Britt and was decorated in red, white and blue roses over white and the children held red, white and blue parasols. The Chandler car of the Wight Tire Co., was beautiful in pure white flowers the ladies being dressed in white and the car driven by Mrs. Hal Wight and accompanied by Mrs. Ralph Wight, Mrs. Fred Wight, Mrs. Kirkly and Mrs Claude Howard.
The Rose of No Man’s Land was a green car, decorated in red and driven by Robert Holley and containing Misses Margaret Zachary and Erminia Houser dressed as Red Cross nurses.
The Splash Babies car driven by Maude Lake and accompanied by Misses Kittie Dubose, Mary Elizabeth Puleston. Mildred Holly, LeClair Jones and Olive Newman was in white trimmed with blue and was decorated with Kewpies.
Among the best decorated cars in the parade were the two Peace cars, one of them being driven by Edward Lane and one by Mrs R. S. Holly. The Lane car was said to be one of the most beautiful cars of the kind in the parade and was done entirely in pink and white effects, the ladies sitting under a white umbrella raised in the center of the car, Mr. Lane in white being in front and accompanied by Miss Virginia Brady, Mrs. Lane, Mrs. Charles Britt and Mrs. John Smith and the lines were held by a Cupid in front of the car. “Peace” in large letters was on the front of the car.
The other Peace car was driven by Mrs. R. S. Holly accompanied By Mrs. S. M. Lloyd, Mrs. Donald Smith, Mrs. Eugene Roumillat and Mrs. R. J. Holly and little Evelyn Smith sat in the back dressed in white and with wings spread played the part of the fairy. The car was in pure white throughout with canopy effect the top holding a basket of white flowers and the white dove of peace perched on the tip. Each side of the car contained gold letters with the word “Peace.” Among the decorated floats that deserve special mention are the following:
The Reo car driven by Leslie Bryan, all done in yellow and containing a bunch of yellow daisies being a bevy of children dressed in yellow and carrying out the idea of the gold seal car. The little girls were Virgie

WHEN PEACE CAME
By Miss Jefferson bell, in Miami Herald

On that eventful night of Nov. 11, 1918, Miss Jefferson Bell of the Miami Herald wrote an article which she entitled “When Peace Came.” It appeared in that newspaper on the morning of the 12th and was as follows:
Darkness lay on land and sea and far across the sweep of gleaming waters great guns belched and shell and flame swept the racked and tortured land. The wind was foul with the smell of mustard gas, poison and smoke and the moist taint of fresh, warm, red blood that oozed and flowed from the dead fallen on sodden fields.
Through the darkness, swift and fearsome, crashed a heavy steel-clad machine, racing with fate and death, driven in hopeless haste and bringing the bitter terms of defeat, chosen in a desperate hour against a greater and more desperate need. In the council chamber waiting the Clan of the Black Eagle. Shorn were its talons and its plumage befouled with hideous crimes. Sullenly, desperately and doggedly they waited while the heavy tick of time and eternity marked the passing hours.
In the streets of Berlin and through the empire savage hordes marched and shouted and sang. It was not the songs of the Fatherland they sang, but the Marseillaise, the marching song of a hated nation, and their shouts curdled the blood of those who crouched in the darkness of tottering thrones, and they shivered and listened – and waited.
In a steel-clad limousine, speeding across a neutral border, fearful of life, and scurrying like a rat from death, went two men. The engine of the high-powered car sped on and on, driven with the energy of despair and scourged by the lash of fear. Craven, abject, like yelping curs they went in that mad race though the night – shivering, whining, waiting. And beside that steel-clad limousine raced pale figures from the realms of shade and after them on the thundering hoofs of a ghostly steed and gibbering, rode Death.
In the great capitals sat grave and silent men while the hours went – and they, too, waited.
In a million homes women waited and of all these legions who waited they only prayed through the great hours that passed slowly into eternity. They did not weep, those waiting women, praying with yearning hearts to the Great God of All the Years for those in camp and field and for who sailed the treacherous seas. And it was not for peace they prayed as they waited unless it brought the things for which they had given their men, but it was a litany wrung from anguished souls that death would pass over their men – and angels listened to the prayers of the women while they waited.
In the camp where the Clan of the Black Eagle waited in the council chamber, the hour of midnight was striking and the fate of the world balanced to the weight of a hair, hung, while breathless billions waiting.
In the hushed silence of that tremendous hour only the scratch of a pen was heard and then - through all the breathless waiting world, from a billion throats and from a billion brazen bells came thundering shouts of victory. It was a world gone mad with joy and while white doves of peace hovered and nestled near the earth, the women, who had prayed, wept.

BUSINESS CONDITIONS READJUSTED

PEOPLE HOPEFUL THAT BETTER TIMES ARE COMING WITH EASIER MONEY

Hopes that reviving business will follow the elections find expression in some quarters, but the results of the balloting are not likely to prompt a sudden reversal of consumers’ buying disposition, and there is no general expectation of any immediate appreciable recovery from the existing economic depression. While confusion over the fundamental causes of the commercial reaction has not been lacking, political factors do not explain the steadily yielding prices of commodities, the increasing curtailment of production, and the continued spread of unemployment, and can hardly be singled out as giving promise of any abrupt change from this situation.
At bottom, the business readjustment has been frequently reiterated, is the inevitable outgrowth of the great inflation and over extension of the war period and afterward and the movement toward a sounder and more wholesome basis is not one which can be swiftly completed or effected without some measure of disturbance. The accompany unsettlement has been more severe in some trades and industries than in others, but in all lines there is clear evidence of a transition to a new order of conditions, and of a return of a buyers’ markets.
After 25 consecutive weeks during which a representative list of wholesale quotations has disclosed a preponderance of recessions, the general average of prices is now considerably lower than had previously seemed probable and the declines at the retail counters, if developing more slowly, are becoming more numerous and widespread. The developments of recent months have demonstrated that maintenance of prices at abnormally high levels is dependent upon a sustained purchasing power, and the former extravagant demands from consumers have been replaced in many instances by a policy of providing for absolute requirements only, in the belief that further price yielding will ultimately follow.
Resistance to high prices, moreover, has been strengthened by the extraordinarily mild fall weather, which has caused heavier accumulations of goods than would otherwise have been witnessed, and which has been a contributing influence in the forcing of merchandise liquidation.
That restriction of building activities is now practically country-wide, following an earlier tendency toward expansion, is evidenced by a special survey of the situation, just made through the branch offices of R. G. Dun & Co. The causes of the reaction, which has occurred in the face of a growing need for additional housing accommodation, are similar to those which have brought about readjustments in the lines, and high costs of both materials, and labor have probably been more responsible than any other single factor for the restraint or construction operations. The tightness of the money market moreover, has rendered difficult the financing of new undertakings, and many contemplated projects are being held in abeyance until conditions become more favorable.
A recent decided lowering of lumber prices in many sections has encouraged hopes of a subsequent revival of building activity, but the price declines have not yet extended to every class of material, and the immediate future of the industry is regarded as being more or less uncertain. It is the consensus of opinion, however, that any general and substantial deflation of prices, accompanied by an easing of the financial stringency, would be followed by the starting of construction work on a broad scale after the passing of winter. – Dun’s Review.

FARMERS TO ORGANIZE AND PROTECT INTERESTS BY SELLING ORGANIZATION

Wages Must Be in Proportion to Price on Crops
WILL NOT EQUAL PAY
LABOR SECURES GOOD WAGES BUT TURNS ON FARMERS DEMANDING CHEAPER FOOD

BOSTON, Nov. 11 –
The establishment of nation-wide selling organizations which shall establish the price of products if the farmer does not receive the same hourly pay that other workers receive, was predicted by Sherman j. Lowell, of Fredonia, N. Y. master of the National Grange, Patrons of Husbandry, in opening the annual convention of the grange.
“We are willing to have a fair understanding of values, the farmers receiving the same pay for the same pay for the same hours work that other receive, no more, no less, but we feel that this is last call,” he said. “If no attention is paid to this now by bankers, merchants, railroad men and others and the government continues to import great quantities of raw material to keep prices down, then the farmers will organize national selling organizations to fix the selling price of their products.
“There is no threat in this; we will have been driven to it in self defense, to protect agriculture. We do not desire class or labor division; we desire to aid humanity and to be able to keep the earth fertile, always bringing forth its harvest sufficient to feed the increasing millions of our people. It is no small task, however, and it can only be safely done by a proper appreciation of this task by our urban population.”
Mr. Lowell rejoiced that labor had been able to secure a much higher rate of wages, but added: “we little exected that they would turn and demand cheaper food from us without first ascertaining the cost of production and thereby discovering whether or not we were taking too large a margin of profit.”
The national master declared that the great changes that have been taken place since the beginning of the war have been to the disadvantage of agriculture and many laws and rulings of our national government have proven of injury to the farmers.
Mr. Lowell said the recent census showed a net decrease of 100,000 farms in seven states.
Concerning taxation, he said:
“There is but one equitable form of taxation and that is when every form of wealth pays its equitable proportion. There is no tax more equitable than an income tax for it is not a charge against anyone who has not the means to pay.”
He spoke against the single tax and the idea of placing a government land tax of 1 per cent on the land in place of taxing large incomes which would be disastrous to agriculture he said.
“Another equally erroneous idea,” he said, “is the one of having a tax on all unimproved land holdings for if this was done and they were forced on the market by reason of such a tax (which is the intent) it would cause the depreciation of farm land 50 per cent from the fact that there is more improved land than men to work it now.”

AEROPLANES WERE HERE

The aeroplanes were here on time this morning and one of them under command of Lieut. Bivens and with Sergt. Smith they did all kinds of stunts over the city while the parade was in progress and afterward. Their loops and tall spins and other stunts scared the people watching the parade and many of them expected the plane to come tumbling down on their heads, but the boys in the plane were old heads at the business and they landed safely on Sanford f=Field after their hair raising stuff and were the guests of the Seminole hotel for the day.
It was good of the Carlstrom Field commander to allow the plane to come here and we are quite sure that the lieutenant was glad to be assigned to this pleasant duty of visiting his old Sanford friends.

ALICE BRADY in ‘A New York Idea”

SHE WANTED A DIVORCE QUICK!

What grounds?” of course was a natural question for the Judge to as. Cynthia Karslake was stumped for a minute. And then she remembered that “John” had a habit of strewing his shaving things about her boudoir in a very untidy manner.
And so a divorce was easy – so easy that it wasn’t any fun at all.
Is divorce a failure? That question will arise in your mind when you see beautiful ALICE BRADY in “THE NEW YORK IDEA” – a pungent satire on modern married life.

REORGANIZATION PLANS FLORIDA NATIONAL GUARD

CHARLESTON, S. C., Nov. 8 –
That the government and war department in particular means to do everything. It can to make life in the National Guard attractive, interesting and instructive in the future, was the opinion expressed here this afternoon by Gen C. P. Lovell, adjutant general-elect of Florida, just before he boarded the Clyde steamer Comanche for Jacksonville.
General Lowell was here last week to attend the conference of adjutant general of the Southeast with officers of the army fourth corps area, where the reorganization plans for the National Guard were generally gone into.
General Lovell stated that in the case of Florida, for instance, there will be a motor truck company formed, as well an up-to-the-minute motorcycle company.
At first the army officers were disposed to allow only eight companies in Florida but he secured their promise to recommend a complete regiment for that state.
He believes the Florida National Guard can be organized in such a manner as to provide a routine, which will be attractive to the men and result in great efficiency toward the end of protecting the public safety.
Since the conference here with the army officers last week, General Lovell has been at Columbia with Mrs. Lovell visiting the relatives of the latter.

Hello, buddies.

-
The city is yours today.

-
And get that put of “chow” ready at noon.

-
The army and navy will play ball to see “who won the war.”

-
We can fight the battle of Paris and the siege of Bordeaux all over again.

-
What a joy it must be today to be out of the trenches and living in the beautiful sunshine of Florida. Some difference, bud, some difference.

-
The editor of the herald is in doubt as whether he belongs in the army or the navy, having served the army on board the transports and served the navy at the same place.

-
We feel like we would get a haversack of chewing gum and cigarettes and give them out today among the boys. They were “our boys” for so long and we were a father to so many of them, thousands in fact.

-
Don’t expect a good paper today. While we cannot close the plaut for a day we expect to let the force off some and then there is so much going on that it will be impossible for the editor to stay on the job and we will not stay on it anyhow. We are just going A. W. O. L. today and we defy all military and civil authority to make us serve and you will probably find us among the K. P.’s down on the lake front if there is anything important for the welfare of the country. This is the big day and we intend to celebrate until the last bugle blows “taps” tonight.

ARMISTICE DAY

Two years ago the whistles and the bells and other noise makers sounded the glad tidings that war was over and peace had been declared and our boys over yonder and our boys in the camps here could come home again.
All those weary months of waiting over here and those weary months of fighting and then waiting over there were over and how we did celebrate for a day and a night over the good news. People went wild with joy all over the world at the glad tidings that peace would again brood over the world and fighting come to an end. While peace has not quite encircled the world since that time and many countries are torn asunder with revolution, peace has to a large extent come to most of the countries of the earth and America can at least celebrate Armistice Day today with the feeling that most of our troubles are over.
We will be beset from time to time with troubles and agitations before things right themselves but America will always America, the land of the free and the home of the brave and all those boys who spent any time in the countries of Europe and who are home today celebrating will feel like they are home and that home means the grandest home in the grandest country in the world. Come what will in the next ten years we can count on the boys of the American Legion for our true and loyal citizens. They may grumble with the rest of us at times and think things are not as they should be – they grumbled in the camps and in the trenches and grumbled to get to France and then grumbled to get home – but their grumbling is just the natural American chafin at the bit for things to move faster.
They are the boys who will make the future American citizens and they are of the right sort. They have been through the mill and if any of them had any cooties of discontent on them they were shed with the trench uniform and did not come back home with the boys who willing to sacrifice their all in this world because the government called them. They went into the mouth of hell because they were needed in the time of their country’s stress and having answered are entitled to all that the country can give them in the years to come. No one can imagine what they suffered unless you were in the midst of the ruck and the muck of with them.
No one can imagine their feelings, their opinions and their inspirations unless you were with them and talked with them while the mood was on them. These boys only home for the past two years and some less than that have been made over again into peace loving, loyal, law-abiding citizens. They were made over from citizens into soldiers in a short space of time and were again made into citizens in just a short space and the transformation is marvelous and most remarkable and shows the versatility of our modern American boys.
That they are here with us today in such large numbers is another cause not only for wonderment but for congratulations and we have them with us today celebrating that victory that means so much to the world today and will mean so much more to the world in the years to come.
Enjoy yourselves, boys, to the fullest extent. We are with you soul and heart and body and will endeavor to keep up with you until our legs give out and then we will call for an ambulance and ride in the procession until the finish. And to those boys sleeping in Flanders field and those who are sleeping under the stars and stripes in this country today we drop a tear to your memories. You cannot be here to celebrate but you will be remembered none the less.
You paid the supreme sacrifice and you have not died in vain. As the years go by and the cycle enlarges and merges into the yesterdays and the shadows lengthen at the close pf the day and the end of this life we will always remember and always praise Him that saw so many safely through and safely over and ask that He “stand by” the boys who have passed into the beyond and those who are here “carrying on.”

SIX KINDS OF SAFETY

Have you every paused to consider the safety of the bank where you deposit your money?
The first consideration is the capital, which should be ample to meet the requirements of the community the bank is to serve.
The next question to consider is the officers in charge. They should be men of experience, high character and successful. Without men of ability no institution can succeed.
Then there is the question of confidence. The public should have confidence in the officers and in the bank.
These three principles determine the success of a bank.
We adopted these principles in the outset of our career and we expect to live up to this high standard and increase our usefulness to the community as the years go by.

We Offer You:

1st: Large capital and working reserve.
2nd: Trained men in charge – men of several years experience.
3rd: The confidence of the public, which is proven by the daily addition to our line of depositors.
4th: Protection by two examinations each year by the state banking department. Two audits each year by an independent recognized public audit company and two sworn statements submitted to the state comptroller by the cashier, giving the bank’s condition in detail. All of which insures regular, systematic and thorough operation of the bank.
5th: The advice of a competent board of directors, who meet with the officers regularly each month and advise them as to the operation of the bank.
6th: Insurance of all deposits every day of the year. This is a protection not commonly found in banks and is an absolute protection for your funds, in addition to all the other usual safeguards.

These are reasons why you should do business with us, and we believe that no bank can offer better inducements.

ARMISTICE DAY SUCCESS DESPITE LOWERING CLOUDS HUNDREDS OF VISITORS.

Rain Failing To Dampen Ardor Of the Boys.
EVERYTHING READY
AND WITH GOOD WEATHER THIS AFTERNOON AND NIGHT THE BOYS WILL BE “JAKE”


The big day started off early as many of the boys never went to bed last night but stayed up to be on time the first thing in the morning and long before daylight they were out sounding the bugle calls and driving trucks with the cut-out open and backfiring the engine and by seven o clock it is probable that more people were awake early in Sanford than have been since Armistice Day two years ago.
The boys were busy as bees until parade time getting the wheels of fortune and other amusements ready and making all secure for the dinner and the dance tonight and all the other little details that go make up the big time.
The parade started promptly at 10 o’clock on Oak avenue led by the Kissimmee band and it was an inspiring sight to see the boys of the army and navy all resplendant in their uniforms that had been laid away in moth balls for the past year or more.
The line up of the parade was as follows:

-First Section
The Colors

-Second Section
American Legion.

(d) Chero-Cola Co.
(e) Lane
(f) Walthal & Estridge

-Eighth Section
Boy Scouts.
Floats:-
(a) Miscellaneous Floats and automobiles.


The parade was probably one of the largest and best arranged that has ever been pulled off in Sanford and this was due to the military precision with which it was carried out. Under the command of Colonel Geo. W. knight, and his efficient staff, the parade started on Oak avenue promptly at ten and to the inspiring strains of “Over There” the Kissimmee Band under the leadership of Capt. Gallagher, led the boys out with chests out and eyes front and the colors first with the color guard of the army and navy followed by a long line of soldier boys and sailors that thrilled the assemblage of people thronging the sidewalks along the line of march. The float, Uncle Sam and Miss Columbia, came next with Robt. Herndon driving, R. A. Terheun representing Uncle Sam with an original makeup and Miss Columbia represented by Mrs. Robt. Herndon. The Red Cross nurse by Mrs. Burdick and guarded by the army and navy; the float being decorated in Florida moss, pine needles and vines. This float received the applause of the crowd all along the way.
Behind Uncle Sam was the Chaplain’s car, driven by Chaplain Geo. Hyman, with little John Hyman in uniform sitting on the hood and Cr. Brower of the congregational church, and Dr. Walker of the Methodist church, and R. J. Holly, of the Y. M. C. A., occupying the car which was decorated in red, white and blue bunting and carried the insignia of the 82nd Division, the All Americans and the white crosses of the chaplain.
The Wreath car of the American Legion, was beautiful, being driven by Walter Connelly and containing the wreath for the boys who died in the service of their country and held a guard of honor.
The navy had a fine float representing a ship and filled with sailors the car being driven by Ed. Ward.
The D. A. R. car was driven by Hawkins Connelly and contained Mrs. W. E. Watson, Miss Morrison, Mrs. A. R. Key, Miss Wilkey, Mrs. Forrest Lake and Mrs. Louckes and was decorated in myrtle over a while background and hybiscus entwined in the Myrtle and bearing the insignia of the D. A. R. on the side.
The B & P car of Perkins & Britt was among the beautiful cars being driven by Lieut. Kenneth Murrell, accompanied by Dixie Brown and held by little Braxton Perkins, Charles Britt, Wanita McMillan, Wanita Smith and Margaret Britt and was decorated in red, white and blue roses over white and the children held red, white and blue parasols. The Chandler car of the Wight Tire Co., was beautiful in pure white flowers the ladies being dressed in white and the car driven by Mrs. Hal Wight and accompanied by Mrs. Ralph Wight, Mrs. Fred Wight, Mrs. Kirkly and Mrs Claude Howard.
The Rose of No Man’s Land was a green car, decorated in red and driven by Robert Holley and containing Misses Margaret Zachary and Erminia Houser dressed as Red Cross nurses.
The Splash Babies car driven by Maude Lake and accompanied by Misses Kittie Dubose, Mary Elizabeth Puleston. Mildred Holly, LeClair Jones and Olive Newman was in white trimmed with blue and was decorated with Kewpies.
Among the best decorated cars in the parade were the two Peace cars, one of them being driven by Edward Lane and one by Mrs R. S. Holly. The Lane car was said to be one of the most beautiful cars of the kind in the parade and was done entirely in pink and white effects, the ladies sitting under a white umbrella raised in the center of the car, Mr. Lane in white being in front and accompanied by Miss Virginia Brady, Mrs. Lane, Mrs. Charles Britt and Mrs. John Smith and the lines were held by a Cupid in front of the car. “Peace” in large letters was on the front of the car.
The other Peace car was driven by Mrs. R. S. Holly accompanied By Mrs. S. M. Lloyd, Mrs. Donald Smith, Mrs. Eugene Roumillat and Mrs. R. J. Holly and little Evelyn Smith sat in the back dressed in white and with wings spread played the part of the fairy. The car was in pure white throughout with canopy effect the top holding a basket of white flowers and the white dove of peace perched on the tip. Each side of the car contained gold letters with the word “Peace.” Among the decorated floats that deserve special mention are the following:
The Reo car driven by Leslie Bryan, all done in yellow and containing a bunch of yellow daisies being a bevy of children dressed in yellow and carrying out the idea of the gold seal car. The little girls were Virgie

WHEN PEACE CAME
By Miss Jefferson bell, in Miami Herald

On that eventful night of Nov. 11, 1918, Miss Jefferson Bell of the Miami Herald wrote an article which she entitled “When Peace Came.” It appeared in that newspaper on the morning of the 12th and was as follows:
Darkness lay on land and sea and far across the sweep of gleaming waters great guns belched and shell and flame swept the racked and tortured land. The wind was foul with the smell of mustard gas, poison and smoke and the moist taint of fresh, warm, red blood that oozed and flowed from the dead fallen on sodden fields.
Through the darkness, swift and fearsome, crashed a heavy steel-clad machine, racing with fate and death, driven in hopeless haste and bringing the bitter terms of defeat, chosen in a desperate hour against a greater and more desperate need. In the council chamber waiting the Clan of the Black Eagle. Shorn were its talons and its plumage befouled with hideous crimes. Sullenly, desperately and doggedly they waited while the heavy tick of time and eternity marked the passing hours.
In the streets of Berlin and through the empire savage hordes marched and shouted and sang. It was not the songs of the Fatherland they sang, but the Marseillaise, the marching song of a hated nation, and their shouts curdled the blood of those who crouched in the darkness of tottering thrones, and they shivered and listened – and waited.
In a steel-clad limousine, speeding across a neutral border, fearful of life, and scurrying like a rat from death, went two men. The engine of the high-powered car sped on and on, driven with the energy of despair and scourged by the lash of fear. Craven, abject, like yelping curs they went in that mad race though the night – shivering, whining, waiting. And beside that steel-clad limousine raced pale figures from the realms of shade and after them on the thundering hoofs of a ghostly steed and gibbering, rode Death.
In the great capitals sat grave and silent men while the hours went – and they, too, waited.
In a million homes women waited and of all these legions who waited they only prayed through the great hours that passed slowly into eternity. They did not weep, those waiting women, praying with yearning hearts to the Great God of All the Years for those in camp and field and for who sailed the treacherous seas. And it was not for peace they prayed as they waited unless it brought the things for which they had given their men, but it was a litany wrung from anguished souls that death would pass over their men – and angels listened to the prayers of the women while they waited.
In the camp where the Clan of the Black Eagle waited in the council chamber, the hour of midnight was striking and the fate of the world balanced to the weight of a hair, hung, while breathless billions waiting.
In the hushed silence of that tremendous hour only the scratch of a pen was heard and then - through all the breathless waiting world, from a billion throats and from a billion brazen bells came thundering shouts of victory. It was a world gone mad with joy and while white doves of peace hovered and nestled near the earth, the women, who had prayed, wept.

BUSINESS CONDITIONS READJUSTED

PEOPLE HOPEFUL THAT BETTER TIMES ARE COMING WITH EASIER MONEY

Hopes that reviving business will follow the elections find expression in some quarters, but the results of the balloting are not likely to prompt a sudden reversal of consumers’ buying disposition, and there is no general expectation of any immediate appreciable recovery from the existing economic depression. While confusion over the fundamental causes of the commercial reaction has not been lacking, political factors do not explain the steadily yielding prices of commodities, the increasing curtailment of production, and the continued spread of unemployment, and can hardly be singled out as giving promise of any abrupt change from this situation.
At bottom, the business readjustment has been frequently reiterated, is the inevitable outgrowth of the great inflation and over extension of the war period and afterward and the movement toward a sounder and more wholesome basis is not one which can be swiftly completed or effected without some measure of disturbance. The accompany unsettlement has been more severe in some trades and industries than in others, but in all lines there is clear evidence of a transition to a new order of conditions, and of a return of a buyers’ markets.
After 25 consecutive weeks during which a representative list of wholesale quotations has disclosed a preponderance of recessions, the general average of prices is now considerably lower than had previously seemed probable and the declines at the retail counters, if developing more slowly, are becoming more numerous and widespread. The developments of recent months have demonstrated that maintenance of prices at abnormally high levels is dependent upon a sustained purchasing power, and the former extravagant demands from consumers have been replaced in many instances by a policy of providing for absolute requirements only, in the belief that further price yielding will ultimately follow.
Resistance to high prices, moreover, has been strengthened by the extraordinarily mild fall weather, which has caused heavier accumulations of goods than would otherwise have been witnessed, and which has been a contributing influence in the forcing of merchandise liquidation.
That restriction of building activities is now practically country-wide, following an earlier tendency toward expansion, is evidenced by a special survey of the situation, just made through the branch offices of R. G. Dun & Co. The causes of the reaction, which has occurred in the face of a growing need for additional housing accommodation, are similar to those which have brought about readjustments in the lines, and high costs of both materials, and labor have probably been more responsible than any other single factor for the restraint or construction operations. The tightness of the money market moreover, has rendered difficult the financing of new undertakings, and many contemplated projects are being held in abeyance until conditions become more favorable.
A recent decided lowering of lumber prices in many sections has encouraged hopes of a subsequent revival of building activity, but the price declines have not yet extended to every class of material, and the immediate future of the industry is regarded as being more or less uncertain. It is the consensus of opinion, however, that any general and substantial deflation of prices, accompanied by an easing of the financial stringency, would be followed by the starting of construction work on a broad scale after the passing of winter. – Dun’s Review.

FARMERS TO ORGANIZE AND PROTECT INTERESTS BY SELLING ORGANIZATION

Wages Must Be in Proportion to Price on Crops
WILL NOT EQUAL PAY
LABOR SECURES GOOD WAGES BUT TURNS ON FARMERS DEMANDING CHEAPER FOOD

BOSTON, Nov. 11 –
The establishment of nation-wide selling organizations which shall establish the price of products if the farmer does not receive the same hourly pay that other workers receive, was predicted by Sherman j. Lowell, of Fredonia, N. Y. master of the National Grange, Patrons of Husbandry, in opening the annual convention of the grange.
“We are willing to have a fair understanding of values, the farmers receiving the same pay for the same pay for the same hours work that other receive, no more, no less, but we feel that this is last call,” he said. “If no attention is paid to this now by bankers, merchants, railroad men and others and the government continues to import great quantities of raw material to keep prices down, then the farmers will organize national selling organizations to fix the selling price of their products.
“There is no threat in this; we will have been driven to it in self defense, to protect agriculture. We do not desire class or labor division; we desire to aid humanity and to be able to keep the earth fertile, always bringing forth its harvest sufficient to feed the increasing millions of our people. It is no small task, however, and it can only be safely done by a proper appreciation of this task by our urban population.”
Mr. Lowell rejoiced that labor had been able to secure a much higher rate of wages, but added: “we little exected that they would turn and demand cheaper food from us without first ascertaining the cost of production and thereby discovering whether or not we were taking too large a margin of profit.”
The national master declared that the great changes that have been taken place since the beginning of the war have been to the disadvantage of agriculture and many laws and rulings of our national government have proven of injury to the farmers.
Mr. Lowell said the recent census showed a net decrease of 100,000 farms in seven states.
Concerning taxation, he said:
“There is but one equitable form of taxation and that is when every form of wealth pays its equitable proportion. There is no tax more equitable than an income tax for it is not a charge against anyone who has not the means to pay.”
He spoke against the single tax and the idea of placing a government land tax of 1 per cent on the land in place of taxing large incomes which would be disastrous to agriculture he said.
“Another equally erroneous idea,” he said, “is the one of having a tax on all unimproved land holdings for if this was done and they were forced on the market by reason of such a tax (which is the intent) it would cause the depreciation of farm land 50 per cent from the fact that there is more improved land than men to work it now.”

AEROPLANES WERE HERE

The aeroplanes were here on time this morning and one of them under command of Lieut. Bivens and with Sergt. Smith they did all kinds of stunts over the city while the parade was in progress and afterward. Their loops and tall spins and other stunts scared the people watching the parade and many of them expected the plane to come tumbling down on their heads, but the boys in the plane were old heads at the business and they landed safely on Sanford f=Field after their hair raising stuff and were the guests of the Seminole hotel for the day.
It was good of the Carlstrom Field commander to allow the plane to come here and we are quite sure that the lieutenant was glad to be assigned to this pleasant duty of visiting his old Sanford friends.

ALICE BRADY in ‘A New York Idea”

SHE WANTED A DIVORCE QUICK!

What grounds?” of course was a natural question for the Judge to as. Cynthia Karslake was stumped for a minute. And then she remembered that “John” had a habit of strewing his shaving things about her boudoir in a very untidy manner.
And so a divorce was easy – so easy that it wasn’t any fun at all.
Is divorce a failure? That question will arise in your mind when you see beautiful ALICE BRADY in “THE NEW YORK IDEA” – a pungent satire on modern married life.

REORGANIZATION PLANS FLORIDA NATIONAL GUARD

CHARLESTON, S. C., Nov. 8 –
That the government and war department in particular means to do everything. It can to make life in the National Guard attractive, interesting and instructive in the future, was the opinion expressed here this afternoon by Gen C. P. Lovell, adjutant general-elect of Florida, just before he boarded the Clyde steamer Comanche for Jacksonville.
General Lowell was here last week to attend the conference of adjutant general of the Southeast with officers of the army fourth corps area, where the reorganization plans for the National Guard were generally gone into.
General Lovell stated that in the case of Florida, for instance, there will be a motor truck company formed, as well an up-to-the-minute motorcycle company.
At first the army officers were disposed to allow only eight companies in Florida but he secured their promise to recommend a complete regiment for that state.
He believes the Florida National Guard can be organized in such a manner as to provide a routine, which will be attractive to the men and result in great efficiency toward the end of protecting the public safety.
Since the conference here with the army officers last week, General Lovell has been at Columbia with Mrs. Lovell visiting the relatives of the latter.

Don’t expect a good paper today. While we cannot close the plaut for a day we expect to let the force off some and then there is so much going on that it will be impossible for the editor to stay on the job and we will not stay on it anyhow. We are just going A. W. O. L. today and we defy all military and civil authority to make us serve and you will probably find us among the K. P.’s down on the lake front if there is anything important for the welfare of the country. This is the big day and we intend to celebrate until the last bugle blows “taps” tonight.

ARMISTICE DAY

Two years ago the whistles and the bells and other noise makers sounded the glad tidings that war was over and peace had been declared and our boys over yonder and our boys in the camps here could come home again.
All those weary months of waiting over here and those weary months of fighting and then waiting over there were over and how we did celebrate for a day and a night over the good news. People went wild with joy all over the world at the glad tidings that peace would again brood over the world and fighting come to an end. While peace has not quite encircled the world since that time and many countries are torn asunder with revolution, peace has to a large extent come to most of the countries of the earth and America can at least celebrate Armistice Day today with the feeling that most of our troubles are over.
We will be beset from time to time with troubles and agitations before things right themselves but America will always America, the land of the free and the home of the brave and all those boys who spent any time in the countries of Europe and who are home today celebrating will feel like they are home and that home means the grandest home in the grandest country in the world. Come what will in the next ten years we can count on the boys of the American Legion for our true and loyal citizens. They may grumble with the rest of us at times and think things are not as they should be – they grumbled in the camps and in the trenches and grumbled to get to France and then grumbled to get home – but their grumbling is just the natural American chafin at the bit for things to move faster.
They are the boys who will make the future American citizens and they are of the right sort. They have been through the mill and if any of them had any cooties of discontent on them they were shed with the trench uniform and did not come back home with the boys who willing to sacrifice their all in this world because the government called them. They went into the mouth of hell because they were needed in the time of their country’s stress and having answered are entitled to all that the country can give them in the years to come. No one can imagine what they suffered unless you were in the midst of the ruck and the muck of with them.
No one can imagine their feelings, their opinions and their inspirations unless you were with them and talked with them while the mood was on them. These boys only home for the past two years and some less than that have been made over again into peace loving, loyal, law-abiding citizens. They were made over from citizens into soldiers in a short space of time and were again made into citizens in just a short space and the transformation is marvelous and most remarkable and shows the versatility of our modern American boys.
That they are here with us today in such large numbers is another cause not only for wonderment but for congratulations and we have them with us today celebrating that victory that means so much to the world today and will mean so much more to the world in the years to come.
Enjoy yourselves, boys, to the fullest extent. We are with you soul and heart and body and will endeavor to keep up with you until our legs give out and then we will call for an ambulance and ride in the procession until the finish. And to those boys sleeping in Flanders field and those who are sleeping under the stars and stripes in this country today we drop a tear to your memories. You cannot be here to celebrate but you will be remembered none the less.
You paid the supreme sacrifice and you have not died in vain. As the years go by and the cycle enlarges and merges into the yesterdays and the shadows lengthen at the close pf the day and the end of this life we will always remember and always praise Him that saw so many safely through and safely over and ask that He “stand by” the boys who have passed into the beyond and those who are here “carrying on.”

SIX KINDS OF SAFETY

Have you every paused to consider the safety of the bank where you deposit your money?
The first consideration is the capital, which should be ample to meet the requirements of the community the bank is to serve.
The next question to consider is the officers in charge. They should be men of experience, high character and successful. Without men of ability no institution can succeed.
Then there is the question of confidence. The public should have confidence in the officers and in the bank.
These three principles determine the success of a bank.
We adopted these principles in the outset of our career and we expect to live up to this high standard and increase our usefulness to the community as the years go by.

We Offer You:

1st: Large capital and working reserve.
2nd: Trained men in charge – men of several years experience.
3rd: The confidence of the public, which is proven by the daily addition to our line of depositors.
4th: Protection by two examinations each year by the state banking department. Two audits each year by an independent recognized public audit company and two sworn statements submitted to the state comptroller by the cashier, giving the bank’s condition in detail. All of which insures regular, systematic and thorough operation of the bank.
5th: The advice of a competent board of directors, who meet with the officers regularly each month and advise them as to the operation of the bank.

Vulcanite shingles

Just Lay Them Down and Nail – That’s All There is To It.

The Shoulder of Protection keeps hot or cold air – rain, sleet, etc. from forcing its way through the roof.
The Shoulder of Protection is also the Self-Spacing Device. Makes laying easy and rapid – thus saving time and money.
These Asphalt Shingles are surfaced with natural colored Red or Green Crushed Slate. Each rain washes away the accumulated dust – reviving perpetually the original rich colors.
Where these shingles are used the insurance rate is lowered – because they are fire-resisting.
Give us the dimensions of your roof. We will estimate the cost free of charge. Samples and prices furnished free.
