Show LET THE WHISTLES BLOW. A good suggestion as to observing armistice day comes from the National Council of Women, which will meet in St. Louis, on November Novem-ber 1 I . The first anniversary of ;he signing of the armistice will be celebrated by starting a "National Song hour" from that city. Birth to this idea was given by Mrs. David Campbell of New York, chairman of the community department of the council. The National Council of Women, which embraces thirty-one national organizations of women, representing nine million American women, has united in this one great purpose. The council hopes that community singing of the national patriotic songs will take place in every city and town on November No-vember I I at 1 I o'clock. "Let us gird the nation with song," said Mrs. Campbell in her appeal ap-peal to the American people to join in the celebrations being planned. This idea should find a response in Ogden. Furthermore, on the morning of November I I the whistles should burst forth. Last armis tice day, Ogden was thrilled as the first deep roar was heard. The story the whistles told was of victory, of lives saved, of war horrors ended. There never was such another day in the history of the world. |
