ARMISTICE DAY.
To-morrow is the ninth anniversary of the cessation of hostilities in the Great War, and as on previous occasions it will lie honoured by the observance of two minutes silence from 11 a.m., when, it is requested, all work and traffic shall he suspended for that space of time. As the years go by and the incidents of the war period become dimmed by the fulness of later experience, the annual communion of silence affords an opportunity for reflecting- on the great conflict, the issues that were involved, and the ptate of the world under reconstruction. It is a brief chance for taking stock, mentally and morally, individually and as a nation.
