) Paris, Nov. 7. The Greatest War of all times came to an end at two o'clock this afternoon. The Allies and
Germany signed the Armistice three hours earlier on the field of battle. As Marshall Foch's terms are known to
include provisions which will prevent the resumption of hostilities, the War is definitely ended.
The Allies and Germany signed an Armistice at 11 o'clock this morning. The Hostilities ceased at 2
o'clock this afernoon.
The Americans took'Sedan before the armistice became effective and hostilities ceased.
(Sedan is the place where Germany defeated the French in 1871.)

reported.- They arrested their officers and shot twenty officers.
The mutineers declared they would hold out until peace was ef
fected. AMKRICANS MADK MORE GAINS.

What so proudly we linil'd at the twilight's lust gleaming,
Whose broud ft ripe and bright stars through the perilous liyht
O'er the ramparts we watched were, so gallantly iftreaining?
And the rocket's r"d glare, the bomb bursting in air
Core proof through the night that our flag was still there.

AN IMPROMPTU CELEBRATION
Rostliiirg staged a great impromptu celebration just after
The Review posted the United Press bulletins announcing that
the armistice between Germany and the allied powers had been
Mgned and was already in effect. The crowd immediately began
to parade the streets and gained in size and momentum every
minute, and is still g.iing full swing. Uy permission of Mayor
Rice the fire bell was rung and whistles blown. Kxplosives were
brought out and guns fired. Flags appeared by the hundreds.
Kveryhody yelled and cheered.
With difficulty a brief pause was gained while Rev. V. II.
Milton, in an automobile in the center of the street in front of The
Review ollice, made a brief but stirring address. This was fre
quently punctuated with shouts, cheers and shooting of blank
shells.
Along the streets hundreds of people gathered quickly, and
many mothers with sons at the front wept for joy at the news
that their buys can now come home unscathed from the terrible
conflict.
Rev. Milton declared that November 7, 1 91 H, will go down in
history as one of the greatest days the world has ever known, us it
definitely marks the and of the terrible German dream of world
domination and the establishment of a world-wide democracy
which will last forever.
Our war worn heroes may now come home, although some
will remain abroad for a year or two for policing the war torn
nations. It was American energy and aggressiveness and "pep"
that brought this great struggle to a close at this hour. Hence we
have a right to celebrate this victory for world peace and freedom.
