A PROCLAMATION "It has come about that the people of the United States find themselves compelled to take arms against a foe that threatens the liberties of the peoples of the world; the lives of women and, children, particularly, and of all free men. To help to establish a freedom from this oppression that the world demands, it is necessary that millions of the best young manhood and young womanhood of America must go overseas and separate themselves from their accustomed vocations and domestic influences. This, naturally, mean3 a mental and spiritual hunger for those ties of family, society and church that are dear to the hearts and close to the deepest feelings of every American. To supply this void in the lives of our millions of soldiers and sailors, the United States Government has authorized these seven organizations to look after the welfare of the men in service: Young Men's Christian Association Young Women's Christian Association National Catholic War Council K. of C. Jewish Welfare Board ; ; War Camp Community Service American Library Association Salvation Army "These seven organiations have accepted and discharged this trust in a manner that has commanded the admiration of the world, and the eternal gratitude of every man under the service of the flag. "And, whereas, the privileges of giving moral and financial support to this wonderful work, so closely interwoven with the lives of the men in service, has been given not to an institutional government, but to every individual man, woman and child in the United States: 4 "Now, therefore, I, W. W. Zimmerman, Mayor of the City of Richmond, do hereby proclaim to the citizens of Richmond that, during the week beginning Sunday, November the tenth, 1918, they bestow attention, lend effort and strength, and give liberally to the fullest extent of their means, to the appeal for funds that shall be made by United War Work Campaign for $170,500,000, to 'carry on' this wonderful work so auspiciously begun. During the next year, which is undoubtedly to be the most critical year in the war, our men in service must experience no interruption or modification of the extent to which this morale-making work has entered into their lives and brought happiness and couiage. To see that this does not happen is the part of those of us whom our boys have left at home. "And I further request that this proclamation shall be read aloud from every pulpit in the City on Sunday, November tenth, 1918, and, on the following day, in every school so that the children may also, to the extent of their interest and effort, join in this vital work of the war. "Signed by me at Richmond, on the 8th day of November, 1918. "W. W. ZIMMERMAN, Mayor."

GARY KEPT ON MAKING MUNITIONS
(By Associated Press) CHICAGO, Nov. 8 Crowds continued their demonstration on the streets until early this morning in celebration of the false report of the war's end which flashed over the city. Police reserves kept on duty during the night were released early today, the regular details being deemed sufficient to deal with those who persisted in celebrating. During the afternoon yesterday the mounted and reserve police were ordered on duty and as an adjunct to these Thomas A. Gunn, head of the American Protective League, acting on advice of John H. Alcock, acting chief of police, notified his 18.000 operatives to report to police captains of their districts. Veterans of the police department said that never in their experience had there been such an abnormal demon
stration. j During the reign of hysteria a grayhaired woman appeared on the down- ; town streets riding a mule, waving a I flag as she sang "Glory, Glory, Hallelujah." j Only one place remained normal, as far as could he learned Gary, Ind. At midnight, a telephone message to Chicago asked for information regarding the armistice. "There was no celebration here," said the inquirer, "The public is waiting for the official confirmation of the peace report. We kept right on making munitions."

Continued From Page One. a fact, the German must attempt to make good their escape through the wooded, rough Ardennes region. This country is devoid of railroads and has only mediocre highways over which the enemy may withdraw his trains of supplies and munitions and his artillery. Bavaria has demanded that her army be withdrawn from the western front, it is reported. This action, it i3 said, is the result of the menace against her southern frontier and the threatening internal conditions in Bavaria.

AN OPPORTUNITY FOR FARMERS , We will have on track Monday, Nov. 11th -car of MILL FEED Containing 1 5 tons of Middlings and 5 ton Bran We advise placing your order now. (One ton to a customer)
The feed situation is the most vital problem the dealer will have to contend with this season. It becomes more evident every day that there will continue to be a serious shortage of wheat feed, growing worse as the season advances. The Government is displaying considerable alarm about the severe suffering among the dairy Interests. And have intimated that unless the wheat growing states reduce their consumption, so the disastrous conditions in dairy districts may be relieved, the price regulations will be removed, allowing the feed market to "take its natural course. This would result in wheat feed advancing to a price perhaps double what you are now paying.
The government has also requested that mill feed be used In a very limited way. for dairy cows, young stock, poultry This is the only car of Mill Feed that we will receive during the month of November. .
We are trying to meet this emergency by
making this car go as far as possible. Will not sell more than one ton to a customer, but will give you the opportunity to buy 500 lbs. at ton price on basis cash and carry. Would advise you phone or call at store Saturday and place your order for your limited amount to be taken from car. On track Monday, Nov. 1 1 . This day only. Omer G.
