THE SUNSHINE OF PEACE.
PEACE!
The world has been upside down. Mankind has
been killing off its best lives instead of conserving
them. It has been shooting its wealth away in the
roar of guns and bombs. Its hands have been de­
voted to destruction. Its wheels of progress have
been stopped. Its attitude toward almost every­
thing in this life has undergone tremendous
changes. Even its thoughts have been twisted
and warped.
Peace finds the world in chaos. Before us is a
new beginning, with revolution, in large or small
degree, probable in every one of our economic, in­
dustrial, and social relations, and Solomon himself
vWe
America pays her share of the price in thou­
sands of precious lives and enormous treasure.
Clearly our first problem is to reclemocratize
America.
No peace time president should hold the auto­
cratic power wisely and justifiably granted Presi­
dent Wilson as a vital necessity in the prosecution
of" war business. It was a test of democracy to
seek to draft twelve to fifteen million men. It was
a test of democracy to empower a board to say
how little sugar and how much bran a hundred
millions of people should eat. It was a test of
democracy to draw death zones around a free
press and free speech, and bound up in, or rela-

must rebuild the house
in which we live more wisely and permanently.
We must have a house to fit all of a common fam­
ily, not one so cramped by caste architecture that
a large part of the family must sleep and eat out
in the woodshed. We must scrub the blood off our
doorstep and sweep the garbage of hate from the
comers of our rooms. Where the battlesmoke has
blackened the windows, doors, and furnishings, we
must repaint in colors of beauty. And we must
dedicate the house to the bloodily demonstrated
principle that right is might and shall prevail, in
peace or war.
Yet, although peace finals our land undevastated, white paper spaces with nice long words, spell
there are very few other nations among the late
belligerents that are confronted today by greater
problems. Nations like Germany, Belgium, Aus­
tria and Serbia, for instance, begin the new order
with little or nothing. Common misery produces
a commonalty in the human aninutl as well as
in others. We begin with our political, economic,
and industrial factions practically intact, awake,
and vigorous. But the great war efforts in com­
mon have brought us closer together and we will
settle every one of our problems right if we hold
fast to the fundamental principle that all men
are equal, equally entitled to consideration and
opportunity.

Peace is a God given blessing, granted because
we sacrificed and fought for the right without
selfish aim. The Almighty had not only enabled
us to stop the frightful destruction and suffering,
but he gives us peace as a glorious opportunity for
progress. Let us rebuild our American house
with the determination that its foundation shall
be equality. Let us try every new sill and joist
with the plumbline of exact justice. Let us plane/
sandpaper, and paint as copartners in patriotism.
Let us partition for apartments for the whole
family with private parlors for none. Let us put
about it all the beautiful flowers of brotherly love
we possibly can. And that house will endure. It
will endure as the highest example of human wis­
dom and civilization. It will stand as a radiant
monument to our dear ones who laid down their
lives or their careers in the cause of freedom, for
all, forever.
HOME IS WHERE THE BOY IS
By Bruce Barton
I visited a home where a service flag hangs
and while we ate we talked of the boy who is
over there.
"I wonder if he is cold tonight," the mother
said, "I wonder if he has a place to warm him­
self and dry his clothes and something good to
eat."
"What wouldn't I give to be with him," she
said and we were silent, knowing her heart.
But I thought of the Soldiers of Friendliness
who that very night would crawl out across No
the great lecturers and preachers and actors and
motion pictures that are over there.
And I thought to -myself: "There is a*differ
ence between this and every other war. For. when
the boys have marched away before, the influence
of their homs has stopped at the front gate and
could go no farther.
Home is where the boy is. From every town
and village the lines of helpfulness run out.
And no boy leaves his home behind him: step
by step it travels with him, financed by the folks
behind him—a token of their love.
Situation wanted: By large'number of military
experts, able to draw lines on maps, cover vacant
names of Flemish villages or qualify as fortune
tellers' assistants
It is hereby moved, seconded and carried that
the name "spiz" is as objectionable as the disease,
and th^t "flu" henceforth be the standardised
vocable throughout these United States.
Wqmen are now employed in the manufacture of
bricks. Our code of occupational ethics for the
gentle sex is undergoing some "mortarfying"
changes!
Politics ain't What they used to be! Herfc-s
United States Senator Kenyon actually proposing
a budget system to avoid waste of public funds!
Police will aid the campaign to check influenza
in many cities. May we soon epect to see patrol
loads of germs dashing through the streets?
Flu has silenced the gas attacks of the poli­
ticians, so why blame it on the Huns.
Germany is now learning the penalty of lying
until she will not bef believed if she'tells th6 tfciith.

MESSAGES GIVE IMPETUS TO DRIVE
THE BIG FWr Ur riCTORy?
Washington, D. C., Nov. 11.—President Wilson issued a
formal proclamation at 10 o'clock this morning announcing
that the armistice with German had been signed.
•It follows:
"My fellow-countrymen:
"The armistice was signed this morning. Everything
for which America has fought has been accomplished. It
will now be our fortune of duty to assist by example, by
sober friendly counsel and by material aid inthe establish­
ment of just democracy throughout the world.
"Woodrow Wilson."
The following messages received this morning and read to the United
ar Work committeer -1
cial club headquarters
War Work committees preliminary to their departure from r.ie Commor­
ient impetus to the drive'in Bismarck.
CARDINAL GIBBONS
"To slacken our efforts now or to lessen our generosity would be
great ingratitude toymen who have encountered such hardships and dan­
gers for our stokes and are bringing to happy conclusion the greatest war
in history. They haye earned Jhe best and most that we can give them.
An American who will not give all he can is unworthy our noble army
and navy and the holy cause for wh ch they fought. It would be a groat
mistake to think that the end of the war will diminish-'need of the work
of the seven organizations that have done so much for the comfort and
welfare
-our soldiers and Sailors stop. We must see this thing thru.
—Cardinal Gibbons.
SECRETARY McADOO
"The workers of the Unittfd organizations have gone to the front and
shared the dangers and hardships of our soldiers' and sailors. Through
their tireless energy, thougtfffulness and devotion they have carried cheer
comfort and assistance to our m.en.jnd they are worthy of itaMuaaort
of every loyal American. All the* organizations are imouetf
same ideals pf helpfulness and a common desire to makp the gospel of
faith, hope and *ove a reality to men who are fighting for humaorilty, and
I urge that every railroad employee shall respond to it generously,, even
to the point of foregoing things that they can do without and those who
are away from home may feel that they are unforgotten."—W. G. Mc
Adoo.
THEODORE ROOSEVELT
"Between the close of the war and, demobilization is a period when
men at the front will need every thing done for them by precisely such
organizations as those for which this drive is undertaken. It would be: a
dreadful act of ingratitude if this nation failed in its -duty* at this tifhe
and gave our soldiers to believe that we forget them as soon as they
ceased risking their lives. We stay-at-homes owe everything to the men
at the front, and unless we oversubscribe the amount demanded by the
ajlied work council we will have come shamefully short in our duty."—

SONG RINGIISPWHSO'
THE DAKOTAS
New Ballad CaUed "It's Nfever
Too Late to Be Sorry"
•New York is ringing with a new
song. "It's Never Too Late to L'e
Sorry," which,, in ppin: of he3rt-felt
interest is said to be the most pro­
nounced hit written hi some time.
The song conveys the story of fem­
inine fidelity, and, although some af­
firm that the.'text defends the wom­
an rather, than the man. the sense of
uncertainy makes it interesting. Fol*
lowing are a few line3 of the-verse:
"I watched a sweet rose droop and
die
For want of rain and wondered why
The rain drops when at last they
came
Could not" restore the ijloom again.
You're like the rose, I'm like the Tain,
You wanted me and called in vain,
And here is a part of the music.
It's Never Too Late To
Be Sorry i.

Although the entire song, is writ­
ten without high note quite an ef­
fect is obtained when sung, owing no
doubt, to the catchy tune.
in a fact a merchant, be he milkman,
grocer, drygoods merchant, or in
other lines, may if he chooses, make
free delivery of his produotp. The
prices appearing in the newspapers
of the county are .for cash and carry
service, and are the maximum, that
may be charged for that sepvice.
Complaints, therefore, relative to the
non-delivery of milk in Bismarck at
the present time should not foe laid
against the food administration. For
'every complaint for non-delivery that
is received by the county adminis­
trator, dozens of complaints are re­
ceived on the cash and carry price
