It has been called the seeond birthday of the American republic. - Never in the history of this great nation was any news received with such fervid and heartfelt ,thanks by so many people as that which flashed across the water two years| ago'when the guns ceased roaring on the battle front in France. " In the strenuousness of the struggle, when America’s . simews were dilated, as it were, with the supreme effort and when “every’ true American’ forgot himself ‘in’ order that his nation ‘might the sooner conquer, little time was taken to honor the-memory of those heroes who had fallen' that the nation might live.” But on November 11, 1918, when word came that the enemy had capitulated, that the work of killing was over. those who had lost loved ones in the struggle were brought face ~ to face with the fact of what that victory had meant and would mean' tothem: through the years to“come, It was then that mothers:and. fathers fervently thanked God that their boy had béen spared- and it was then {hat these who /had been beéreft realized-that-in -God and in-the memory of the righteousness ofithe-struggle must-they-find their consolation. bl It is most fitting therefore that a day be set aside by the | " nation to honor the memory of those who made the supreme, sacrifice for their nation and to honor those who left home and, friends at their country’s call and answered the roll call on the battle front. It is to these that we dedicate Armistice Day. With these memories before us every American should’ pause on'Armistice Day and render to those to whom it 'is due the thanks of the nation. In the great desire to return to our own private affairs and put them in order as they were before the great struggle there wi]l be a tendency to slight or forget the great principles for which ouf nation fought, and commercialism is apt to rob our higher sensibilities of those national ideals which should ever predominate all others. Let it not be so in Bemidji tomorrow. The 'American Legion, the great body who are perpetuating the memories of the honored dead, who are acting as big brethers to the buddies who need a brother, who are fighting the after war-pfoblems of the returned soldiers, the wounded, the out of work; the stranded, and the incapacitated and who are. burying with military honors the remains of ‘their brave comrades who are being brought back from France, this body is asking the co-operation of every true American c: thé celebration of Armistice Day tomorrow and it it redognition-indeed they are-asking. They are doing the 'work, let' us all join in the celebration and make it a proud,day!for the Legion. ® j‘ OVERHEARD BY EXCHANGE EDITOR One of the most important and pleasing results' of Tuesday’s election is the passage of Amendment No. 1.

Only in Spain, under the Moors, was the system of bathing kept up.

The only way you can get anything- but. enthusiastic eulogy of the place, he says, Is by yourself pretending a-violent infatuation for it. ! The writer in_ question has’ discov- ered'nothing new and it is not impos- sible that he might find Indianapolls also an illustration of his theory, for its citizens are sometimes given to| “knocking” when they talk about this ¢ city to visitors. They will ‘mention some of its good features, hut will off- set them by callimg attention to the things it does not, but should, possess. The visitor may notice these lacks by himself if ieft alone, but he may not, and 1t is poor judgment to bring them to his notice. s The old saying that the best foot should always be put forward fs as| applicable to a city as to an individ- ual. The mother of a defective child endeavors to draw attention to his merits and away from his defects, and the policy is- good as to a town.

B Fuel Oil for Railrcads. The great scarcity of coal has caus- ed the Paris, Lyons, and Mediterra- nean Railway company to transform some of its motlve power from coal to fuel oil consumption, which is about to be followed by the Chemin de Fer de I'Etat, or state-owned rail- way, and engines at its shops at Sain tes are now undergolng ‘changés ‘for experimental purposes. Much <atten- tion is being directed to the announce- ment that the firet-named railway corapany is” planniug to equip 200 lo- comotlives for fuel oil and install nu- merous stornge’ reservoirs of from 40 to 100 tons' capdcity at various peints on its lines.—Sclentific American, Novel Wireless Experiments. “By, meuns of. vibratory waves sent out from an osdillator cut in her hull, the battle cruiser Ohio has been con- ducting some remarkable wireless ex-. periments with the abandoned battle- ship Iowa in the Delaware bay near Philadelphia.
