Cditor.Ne-S-s snd Family: At this writing to you and sister Eva, as well as to tnyman y relatives and friends, the dove of peace seems to have the City of. Providence completely at its mercy. Business has been sus pended, that i, shops have been closed, peoples homes apparent ly closed, and the four hundred and odd thousands of people of Providence and Powtucket are enjoying one of the greatest cel ebrations multiplied by one hun dred times any thing previous in the history of the stale. At 3:80 A. M. U day my better half and I were awaken by the whistles of the thousand .or more factorit end some thirty odd Freight engines, with the hundreds of church bells beating a chorus that was a perfect fit ting to the greatest -celebration the world has ever known. In a short time after the whis tles made their wonderful out burst the streets were fast filling with old men and women, middle aged men and women and even children, making for the center of tfee city, carrying the Nation al and allied emblems, blowing horns ringing bells, dragging t)3d buckets, pans, stove pipes and most anything to make a noise. Soon the streets were so filled or a mile square that can and 'Uto's were powerless to move and the some four hundred police are iu poweileHS as a lropof water in the ocean. At 10: A. M. I went out to nee the tights and whet I had gone only a short distance I beheld the; most-wonderful sight that eyes coijld behold, tens of -thousands cn top of tens of thousand of peo pk! just gone wld with joy. ; ,all celebrating one way or another; silence only when the 25 or more bands scattered over the city play ing the national emblem. Next I noticed was the big stores some employing as many as 1500 clerks with the big sign, CI OS- ED TO CELEARATE, on doors. At this minute. 3:45 P. . M. a parade is passing my house in which it is estimated that 00,000 tare anticipating, led by a regi ment of soldiers and sailors and every nationality on earth, carry- m everything imagionable and in large letters at the head of each column are such as this; THE KAISER WILL RULE 1ELL" "THE DEVIL WILL THROW KAlER BILL OUT OF HELL" Copies were thrown on the streets, black with the &Uer head in( effogy sticking out covered with yellow flowers with such o,s this printed on them: "KAISER BILL FUN toAL PRIVATE" "WE COT HIM B0 HSEHIM ROUGH" Automobile draped in big fl igs, flrfld guns, boats on truck; bells, such as are us 'd in tenn. schools mounted on trucks and autos by thrt dozn. Tho celebration has been'going ovet 14 hours and no one seems to predict when it will end not to n ght by any means. To do justice to the joy ex pressed here would mere than fill your paper. Thank God. We owe and should bow our heads and lift our hearts to God in humble prayer of thanksgiving for the cession of tho most cruel war history has ever known. Harrison Brewer. LOUIViLLa,KV.
