ARMISTICE DAY
A war-weary world rejoiced some few years ago as
news that the armistice ending hostilities had been signe
On the stroke of eleven, that fateful morning of Novem
ber 11, 1918, the cannons stilled their roar while soldiers
celebrated and old peasants wept in their joyful rebel
as the song of the birds was again heard above the ex
plosion of munitions.
With the passage of time the abandoned spirit of gay
carnival that marked the first Armistice Day has deep
ened into a more mature mood. One thought should
have been impressed upon our minds at 11 a. m. today,
the fact that AEF veterans and all Americans alike
paused in their daily activities and for a long moment,
gave thought to our gallant dead who sleep “in Flan
ders Field, where poppies grow/’
“.To you, from falling hands, we throw
The torch. Be yours to hold it high..”
Believe it or not but the residents of the Westward
like rutabagas, carrots, potatoes and other .garden
truck grown in the Matanuska. They have had samples
out there and are willing to trade their mutton any day.
We trust the matter has been looked into thoroughly
but still we can not help wishing that there might be a
reindeer in the Toyland Department of every store in
America at Christmas time so the kiddies could gather
there in round-eyed wonder. Even dad and mother would
steal around to take a look thinking there might be a
Santa Claus after all.
Now that they have finished celebrating the 50th
anniversary of Edison’s electric light will some one
come forward and sing a song of praise for our little
tallow dip.
Press dispatches announce the engagement of
Crown Prince Humbert of Italy and Princess Marie of
Belgium. We can not see that that’s news; but it would
be news if Mussolini, dictator of Italy, would announce
the engagement of his daughter to a son of Dictator
Eiveria of Spain.
We’ve mulled th,e thing over pro and con, by and
large and up and down and still we can’t figure out why
Alaskans shouldn’t burn Alaska coal.

LOS Angeles, Nov., 11, (/P)-Mrs.
Lucille Bolton, 20, a bride of a few
weeks, was shot to death as she sat
in her new automobile with her
husband, John Bolton, 26, who is
believed to be fatally wounded by
two robbers in a brutal attack
which followed the apparent recog
nition of one of the men by Mrs.
Bolton, as they jumped into the
automobile after taking $38 from
the couple.
Bolton who was found by hunters
gasped out before he lost conscious
ness, that his wife shouted as the
men walked away, “I know you.
Your name is Woods.”. Without a
word, the husband related, the man
turned and stared at his wife and
then fired a bullet which pierced
her head.
