EXERCISES APPRECIATED BY EX-SERVICE Those ex-soldiers and sailors of Warren and Glascock Counties who came on the evening of Nov ember 11th were profligate with Ihnir nvitrncciitno /if Qnnrn/'ifili/YH for the delicious dinner that was prepared, for them by the Amerj can Legion Auxiliary;, and for the delightful program that follpwed. Thirty-two were present and each declared it to be the most pleasant Armistice day exercises of the three that have been observed here. The first one was in 1919 and the war and its memories were so real and the shadow of the hor rors still so vivid that thp’ it was appreciated you could hardly say it was enjoyed. Six years has passed and Time with his healing hand has mercifully spread a sedsjive salve upon their memories and horrible tilings that happened seemed dim and distant and now the humorous side of things can be seen and en joyed. So it was at this meeting after the dinner was finished, the cigars and cigarettes were passed and the ladies retired. Amid a maze of smoke many remembran ces were recalled and the laugh ter that floated through the clos ed doors proved that “the boys” are boys still. As the dinner progressed Miss Helen Atkinson at the piano with the High School Glee Club sang song alter song—those that were popular during the years 1917-1919 and often the soldiers would be seen singing instead of eating. Hon. Basil C. Stockbridge of Atlanta, first State Comman der of the American Legion, gave the address which was thrdughly enjoyed by every one present. Deliberate in his diction, clear in his enunciation, forceful in his arguments he drove the truth home. The Jewell band gave several lumbers. Mrs. John Gant a beautiful vocal solo, Miss Doro thy Anchors a reading which were each enjoyed and apprecia ted. —From Warrenton Clipper. MONEY! MONEY! MONEY!
