The world was thrown into uncontrolled and frenzied joy as word was flashed that the armistice had been signed at 3:00 a. m., eastern time. Again, the pen proved mightier than the sword, as a stroke of the pen on that memorable document stilled g thousands of guns, and automatically stopped the wanton slaughter of millions of human beings that had been grimly carried on for the previous four years. Death stalked no more over the devastated war death-belchin- zones. Right had triumphed over might! Humanity had been saved! But at what a price and at what a sacrifice. Hohen-zelley The end of the come. War had terror of reign was banished from the earth. Would eace prevail forever? It seemed so. France and Belgium lay bleeding; Germany and Austria were r, food and raw stripped of materials. The noble sons of a dozen nations were permitted to cease from their repulsive business of human slaughter. Arms were laid down, and blood-thirst- IT IS TIIK PRICK To those who arc not satisfied with the election of Mr. Francis, we can only say that it is the price they have paid fur alluwing Ogden to remain a one daily newspajwr town. PEKRY OUT on ar-to- rn man-powe- our buddies would soon be home! Monarch with a lust for human blood fled, like the cringing moral cowards they were, in defeat, leaving their torn and bleeding soldiers and their loyal home subjects to the mercy of the victors. Fortunately for humanity, right had prevailed; truth and justice, tempered with compassion for the fallen victims of fiendish warlords who revelled in the wild orgy of killing for powers sake, stepped in. Millions of American mothers, wives, sisters and sweethearts, who had prayed night and day since our entrance into the World war, realized that their prayers had been answered. Too late, it is true, in numerous cases, as many thousands of America's best young manhood had all ready paid the supreme sacrifice had heroically and valiantly "gone west. America took her rightful place at the side of the Allies in 1917, and had played her part well. Four millions of her most noble sons the flower of the nation had taken up arms that humanity should not perish. How valiantly and victoriously Americas sons fulfilled their obligations to the unsullied Stars and Stripes makes a glorious chapter in the worlds history. That France, England and other European nations have not forgotten the part we played was amply demonstrated just a short time ago, when of the 30,000 American veterans World war made the pilgrimage back to Paris for the great Legion convention. France has not forgotten nor has Belgium, nor England, nor Italy. entered Pans When the this year, France welcomed them with cheers and tears; and the welcome rang true from the heart of France very much as did the welcome in 1917, when the first contingent of U. S. soldiers touched French soil with the message, Lafayette, we come. As we bow our heads today in reverent, silent prayer for our departed heroes who were sacrificed for the worlds deliverance, may we not sincerely pray that war, for all time, be banished from the earth. . (By Pont, Jr.) That's that! I told you' so! Thus endeth another chapter. "The saddest of all it might have been. For an "off year politics is surely making a big noise. From present indications Old Man Winter is close in the offing. Election is over! Now everybody pull together for a bigger and bet- ter Ogden.

To be mayor of this city will be no new experience to ' him, as he has filled that position on We hope Mr. two other occasions. Francis, when he has served the city a third time, will be better satisfied with his record than he; is with his past administrations. The Post also congratulates the Standard-Examine- r on having its editor elected mayor of the city. To its owners it is a signal honor, and no doubt will do much to popularize their publication with the people and The with the city administration. Post admits that it would rather enjoy such distinction. The Fost also congratulates all the other officers elect and will support them in their efforts for a larger and more prosperous Ogden. Ogden will grow and prosper no matter what the governing conditions may be. but she will make more rapid progress if she is properly and sanely governed. WHY DISTKOY MONEY? PERFECT" A - dispatch from San Francisco states that secret service officers raided a bogus money making plant in that city and captured the two operatives and an elaborate counterfeiting outfit. It is claimed that none of the money had been placed in circulation and that the bills were perfect. Wonder how the officers determined that none of the queer had been shoved if it was "perfect, and why was the "money" captured destroyed? It might have been used to pay election expenses or election bets. To the Public The sole owners of The Ogden Post are: W. P. Epperson, C. A. Epperson and C. V. K. Saxton.

A mathematician has figured out a calendar with equal days In each month. Of interest to most of us would be a calendar with more nights and Sundays therein. The city election is over. Of interest to many will be the appointments which are due about January 1st. Mayor-eleFrank Francis once more demonstrated his popularity with Ogden voters by defeating one of the citya most substantial business men, Albert Becker, at the Tuesday municipal election. Carelessness and incompetency is given by the special auditor as the reason for the shortage in the office of the assessor of Weber county. How often friendship or party affiliation outweight cool judgment ,in electing public officials.

W. Mel Ion, who is one of the worlds most wealthy men, proposes a cut in income tax. Significant to note, however, is that the proposed tax does not apply to anyone whose annual income is less than $25,000.00.

Elder McKay began his lecture by stating that every man has the stamp of his home on him; and every woman has the same. Whether the home has had a good or bad influence on the child will determine, in most cases, whether the child will be a respected citizen or a hunted criminal. Elder McKay said the home is the foundation of society and that and are the fundamental purposes of civilization. Even among the animals and the uncivilized ravages the home is the main factor of life, said Mr. McKay. Four reasons why the home is so important are: First, because of its contribution to the perpetuation of the human race. Second, because of its contribution to, the security of the tate. Third, because of its contribution to the happiness of the individual. Fourth, because of its contribution to the general culture of population. McKay also stated that the popu Upsets occured in many towns, villages and cities at Tuesdays municipal elections. Among the surprises was the defeat of John G. M. Barnes, one time Mayor candidate for governor, by Thomas E. Williams m the mayoralty race at Offer-T-wo Kaysville. Our two minutes of silent prayer today, in commemoration of our world war heroes, may be fittingly interspersed with the following beautiful thought: O immortal Spirit, fill our hearts with eternal love and peace.

OF 1929 PICTURE Comissioner Harman W. Peery announced Wednesday that he would not come out for in 1929. This statement by the commissioner was received with surprise throughout the city. Mr. Peerys action is an assurance that during the ensuing two years his official acts will be purely and solely for the best interests bf the city and that any charges of political expediency will be groundless. The commissioners interests as a taxpayer make him a valuable adjunct to the city's governmental board, as he has always asserted himself in favor of the taxpaying interests of the community. m .
