They signed. Peace thereupon became a reality, Saturday, Juno 28, 19JJ), at 9 o'clock a. m., united States time, wiiicti it occurs to us, Is about tho only kind of tlmo so far as the Hun fs concerned, and, had It been left entirely to the Yanks," would have been a differ ent kind of a time altogether for the Boche, for the Yanks were rarln' to go to Berlin last November and the disappointment of their lives wns the signing of the armistice which prevented them nailing tho Stars and Stripes to the topmost mast at Pots dam. With the signing of tho Peace terms, the terrible World War was brought to a final end after flvp bloody years of devastation and plun der on the part of German. In that short cyclo of time, short In point of time but' long, oh so long, In suf fering and death, Germany was brought down upon Itself tho con demnation and utter abnegation ot the entire clvlllxed world which It will take generations to removo It ever the blemish Is blotted out. Bv their acts of cruelty and depravity they have made the name German repulsive to all while to those wh.se loved ones sleep In Flanders field or have been returned to them maimed in body, broken In spirit and but the shadow of the stalwart man who marched away, the .feeling In the heart of those Is akin to' hate which wo fear will never die. Germany haa signed. Now. they should be compelled to comply with the terms to the last letter. The' whole world WAAtta ai,1 mnnraa tiAnflltaA nf' ftialt . ' ' . .. t.f-1.

The first, call of the harveat opposed their reign of terror and dollars should be to clear the home Beuvot IS depopulated this week. Every available man and boy Is In tho harvest fields helping to take care of the bumper crop of wheat that Is be ing harvested this week. Many who could leuvo their places of business liavo done bo and are out helping the farmers garner in the golden grain. A number of those yho went did so merely to help out in the emergency for help was scarce and every man able to handle tho Job wns needed so that none of the grain might be lost. Such ih.cn deserve commendation for this act. It Is not an easy Job, this work oMiarvestlng, and to the "soft" man from, the street or from the place of business, not accustomed to the heat of the sun nnd tho strenuous farm life, even the high wages would fall to lure in most Instances, but they realized that the grain must be harvested and went willingly. Har vest Is- on In full blast this week. Thousands of acres of grain are being placed In tho stack or shock this week. By Saturday night by far the greater; part of i the crop" will be har vested. Some arc threshing from the barge aa they go, the wheat being ex tremely dry and In splendid condi tion for threshing. Yields are good and the grain1 Is testing well. Many fields have produced 32 bushels per acre and the wheat has tested around 92 pounds. The majority of the yield however, will nverajso about 20 bush els, per acre and will test 54 to 60 pounds. Beaver county's, harvest Is Indeed a bumper.one this ear. It will mean thousands of dollars to the coffers of Beaver county people. Let us hope that all those dollars will be guarded well and expended wisely to- fought for liberty and Justice. Let the Boche pay to the last ditch! WHY NOT A BOOHTER TRIP?
