PEACE CREATES NEW DUTIES FOR AMERICA-WILSON Is Just Pace, Declares President in First Address on Re- . turn From France.

NEW YORK, July 9. "The foundation of peace creates a new task," said President Wilson in Carnegie hall late Tuesday afternoon. "This is a just peace," he added, "which if it can be preserved will save the world unnecessary bloodshed. The erreat task will be to Dreserve it. I

have come back with my heart full of enthusiasm to throw my influence In with you to see that the peace is observed." The president appeared to be a trifle careworn, though his eyes were bright, his cheeks tanned by the sun and wind of the Atlantic, and his voice strong and clear. Tribute to Soldiers. When he walked upon the stage, his step was firm and vigorous. He smiled with pleasure at the tumultuous and prolonged applause which greeted him. "I really have been the most homesick man in the American expeditionary force," said the president, with a smile. He paid a warm tribute to the American soldierB and told of the welcome which awaited them wherever

they were sent in France, because it was known that they brought protection and friendly help to the people. "These boys were a constant reminder to me of home," he continued. "They walked the streets as If they knew that they belonged wherever free men lived."

CENTENARY

CELEBRATION

COLUMBUS

(OHIO)

Remember this great Centenary

Celebration closes its gates on Sunday, July 13th.

Described by William C. Freeman, Associated with Paul Block. Inc., New York. Chicago. Detroit, Boston.

Thousands of requests have come to the Committee in Charge to extend for another week or two the Centenary Celebration,

BUT IT IS IMPOSSIBLE

TO DO SO.

THE CLOSING DATE

SUNDAY, JULY 13 MUST STAND AS ORIGINALLY PLANNED. And this la why this greatest Exposition of modern times must close 4ts doors on Sunday July 13;. Its success end It la ft w mafkable success, m all cancede has depended on the selfsacrificing efforts of many hundreds of volunteer workers who cannot possibly remain at their posts longer than, Sunday, July 13th. A few might remain, without serious detriment to their personal affairs, but a BIO ENGINE Buch as that which has furnished the power for this Centenary Celebration Columbus, cannot run smoothly with a great many of the parts Inactive. EVERY ONE of the splendidly zealous and intelligent group of volunteer workers Is necessary to the smooth running of the Exposition Therefore, with bo many hundreds unable to continue, the BIG ENGINE of which they are essential parts, must shut off

Its power Sunday, July 13. AND SO. WITH MANY REGRETS, AND WITH DEEP APPRECIATION OP THE MAGNIFICENT TRIBUTE PAID THE CENTENARY CELEBRATION BY THE HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE THAT HAVE SEEN IT, THE COMMITTEE BOWS TO THE INEVITABLE AND MUST CLOSE THE GATES SUNDAY, JULY 13. It la a significant thing that on several of the days since the Centenary Celebration started Friday, June 20th the attendance has been larger than was the attendance at that muchheralded prize fight which took place at Toledo last Friday. WHICH SHOWS THAT the millions the heart and conscience and real manhood and womanhood of the country stand back of and loyally support the big things done in the world to make it better such big things, for Instance, as find expression In the more than 16,000 individual exhibits displayed at the Centenary Celebration, State Fair Grounds, Columbus. Each one of these exhibits REPRESENTS A TRIUMPH for the grand work done by thousands of self-sacrificing men and women In teaching their brothers and sisters in all parts of the world how to benefit themselves by adopting Christian standards of living and applying themselves to helpful, constructive Industry.

Surely you will wish to Bee these wonderful exhibits at the Centenary Celebration before the gates are closed Sunday evening, July 13th. Furthermore, I am sure you will want to feel the same thrill that so many visitors have told me they have felt. They tell me "THIS CENTENARY CELEBRATION HAS STIRRED IN US THE FINEST KIND OF EMOTIONS. AND YET WE HAVE HAD A JOLLY GOOD TIME IN SEEING THE WONDERFUL THINGS DISPLAYED ND HEARING SO MUCH INSPIRING MUSIC." I think an Exposition that has the power to stir in us our best emotions while at the same time delightfully entertaining us, is about the highest type of Exposition, don't you think so? Remember, the Centenary Celebration continues only four more days after today. Don't let it close its gates without your seeing it no matter how far you have to travel or how much lime H takes, or . how much money it costs. The Exposition itself charges an entrance fee of only 50 cts. for all day long, and an extra fee of 50 cts. if you wish to see the great pageant In the Coliseum.
