Now comes a Yank to Arlington To join the nation's brave Columbia's unknown soldier son To join the brave in Arlington With pomp of peace and show of war And honor of a conqueror! Three soldier dead, picked in the dark, Unknown, unsung, without a mark Genius or clod or knave, We know their all they gave, We know they died to save. In Theater, Abbey and Arc, With this to be hi all men read : "IN HONOR OF TIIK UNKNOWN DEAD I D.S. HE Spirit of Armistice Day I Who shall Miy now what Is to he the spirit of Armistice day? SuroJy It Is too soon to .say. Thu World war Is yet too close to us. The World war Is not yet over. It will not he over until the rawest of the world's wounds are healed. Only time can tell what Is to he the spirit of Armistice day. That Armistice day Is to he a new American national holiday seems certain. It will he neither a Washington's hlrthday nor n Lincoln's hlrthday In memory of the Father and of the Savior of the United States of America. It will not he a Memorial day In memory of the heroic (lend of our victorious wars. It wllJ not ho n Fourth of July in memory of he winning of our independence. It will not he a Thanksgiving day devoted to !he family reunion feast and thanksgiving to God for His mercies and gifts. And yet Armistice day shouhj he In n way n combination of all of these American national liolldnys. For when the World war ended In victory No vember 11, li)18, America saved all that every good American commemorates In the observance of these natlonnl holidays. Is Armistice day destined to he not only an In ternational holiday hut the one greiit holiday of (ill the world? If the Washington conference on the limitation of armaments brings about disarmament reason able and effective disarmament the whole world, victors and vanquished alike, may well celebrate Armistice day. If the Washington conference should mnko an other great war Impossible and lead up to perma nent, world-wide peace, all the nations of earth will hnve to mark Armistice day as the one great lny of all the military 4ilslory of the world. An Internationalism that does not destroy na tionalism has been the dream of the ages. A world at pence, to stay at peace. . . .1 In this nutumn of 1021, In which falls the third Anniversary of Armistice day, "tho outward and visible sign of tho inward and spiritual grace" which nnlmates the American breast Is trlbuto to the heroic soldier dead In tho form of honors to the "Unknown Dead." Tho woild will not soon forget tho pomp and circumstance with which Orcnt Hrltaln on tho eecond anniversary of Armistice day laid to rest "A British Warrior" In Westminster Abbey. "Cnrry on!'" Tho HtaRKerln? Ilrlton cried. Did the line hold? ' TIiIr tomb nays "YES!" - Nor will It soon bo forgotten bow France lion- M mmMMMsm ored lier heroic dead by tanking her Arc de Trl omphe the burial place of "Un Soldat Francals" from Verdun. , "Thoy slinll not pass!',' The desperate Fiuuoliimin cried. Dili Dip boclie pH3 at Verdun? Tills tomb tsiiyH "NO!" This year America uillrius her adherence to this spirit of Armistice day. The congress of the United States confers by special acts Congressional Medals of Honor upon the "ISrltlsh Warrior" and "Un Soldat Francals." Atactica places these highest decorations within tiie gift of the American people upon the tomb In Westminster Abbey and upon the tomb beneath the Triumph Arch. 1'iesldent Harding sends Gen. John J. I'ershlng, the head of Iter army, to make the bestowal and he sends an American composite battalion of picked men as an escort worthy of the occasion. And Arlington, America's national cemetery where lie historic dead, receives Its "Unknown Yank." "Let' got" Tho uaRcr Ynnlceu cried. Did the Yank bo? This tomb says " "YKS." The vision of this homo-coming of this "Un known Yank" will forever be cherished by the American "people. The selection of Columbia's unknown soldier son at Chalons, the bestowal of the Victoria Cross and the decoration of tho Legion of Honor, his Journey to Havre under escort of un lienor guard; the French memorial observance at the seaport. The cruiser Olympla's arrival at Washington "after dark;" tho night silent transfer to the capl tol ; the lying In state In the rotunda of that most Impressive building In the world. The funeral service In compliance with United States army regulations: A battalion of field nr tlllery, a squadron of cavalry, a combnt regiment of Infantry, a battalion of marines and sailors, the Marino band. Honorary pallbearers: Klght general otllcers of the army and four admirals of the navy. Hotly bearers: Five warrant olllcers of tho army and three petty olllcers of tho navy and of the marine corps, chosen on their war records. Olllclal mourners: Holders of the Medal of Honor; ono representative for each 10,000 of the 4,000,000 men who served In tho armed forces, to he named by tho stutes of tho Union ; olllcers and enlisted men from each arm of tho service; a member of tho American Legion from each stnto and territory. The funeral procession passing nlong Pennsyl vania avenue on Its way from the capltol to tho Arlington Memorial' amphitheater; tho lining of the entire route with Infantry from tho regulars and Natlonnl Guard. Tho reception at the Arlington Memorial am- phltheater by the President of the United States, heading an assemblage of the great of the world "olllclal and private citizens a he may select ;" the funeral oration by tho President; funeial serv ices by army and navy chaplains; Interment In front of the entrance of the nmplilihenter at a spot which overlooks the city of Washington, with Hie capltol and Washington's monument and the Lincoln memorial In the distance. The moving strains of the funeral march; the roll of the drums; the mcnsiucd cadence of march ing feet; the blowing of "Taps" by the buglers; the volley by the tiring squad. The Flag at half-mast throughout the nation. The American people Implied In two minutes of silent prayer. This Spirit of Armistice day need alarm no lover of peace. In thus honoring their "Unknown Dead" America and Great I'.rltnin and France give form and substance to their recognition of that democ racy of service and sacrlllce which Is the founda tion of society and the salvation of nations. "Unknown Dead" U merely a symbol. In place of "Unknown Dead" read "Man in the Iinnks the common man who offered his all, did his duty and gave his life for his country, unknown, unhonored and unsung. No citation contains his name. No decoration Is his. This Is the man who won the war and It Is In his honor that the "Unknown Dead" are Interred with the pomp and circum stance of state display. And the message Is quite as much to the living. , This "Man of the Hanks" need never have reached the llrlng line. He need never have got Into the lighting ranks. Many a patriot who deserves well of his country was rejected by tho recruiting olllcer. The patriot man or woman who gave his country the best he had shares In the honors of Armistice day to the "Unknown Dead." I wish to express to you and to congress and the people of the United States the warm apprecia tion felt throughout this country at the trlbuto which you are paying to our unknown warrior. Tho gift of your medal of honor to the HrltMi comrade In arms, whose tomb In Westminster Ah. bey stands for all our best endeavor null hardest sacrlllce In war, Is a gesttire of friendly sympathy and good will which we will not forget. On Armistice day representatives of tho Hrlt Ish empire In Washington will Join you In tlm ceremony to be held to honor the splendid record of your own troops. I greatly wish on that occa slon to confer upon your unknown warrior our highest decoration for valor tho Victoria Cross. I also send my heartfelt good wishes to tho great International conference which opens by your Initiative upon that day. My ministers will, I know, strive as wholeheartedly as yours to mnko tho congress u sterling success. May they, In common with yours, do all that practical states manship can achieve to perpetuate tho comrade ship of war In tho maintenance of peace. GEOHGK V TO I'HESIDIT HARDING. ' ILf M.

Who cannot recall the coffee-pot Mother put on the stove early in the morning, warning us not to let it boil over? As children, we were not permitted to drink tea or coffee, because it would stunt our growth or make ua nervous and irritable. When older, however, we craved a hot drink with meals, and custom gave us our tea or coffee. Finally upon tha instructions of the doctor, Mother gave up her tea and coffee. But that meant nothing in our young lives. Our vitality was then stTong enough to throw off any ill effects. But our time came, and we learned by ex perience that we could not drink tea or coffee. When we had it for breakfast it put our nerves on edge. When we drank it at tho evening meal, we tossed about in wakefulness most of the night. And then we found Postum, a pure cereal beverage, free from the harmful drug, caffeine, in teaandcoflee. We liked the rich, satisfying flavor of Postum and also the better health which re sulted.
