THE PERMANENCY OF PEACE
Nine years ago on November 11 and armistice was
signed that brought relief to a war torn world. The
word “armistice” is a common noun. The dictionary de
fines it as “a temporary cessation of hostilities by mutual
agreement; a truce.
But since that memorable occasion there has been a
tendency to call the armistice that was signed The Armis
tice.
Great forces are at work to make Armistice Day a
historic event to celebrate not only the peace that was,
but the peace that is to be. Diplomacy is taking on com
mon sense in place of mere artful form. World communi
cation and the diffusion of knowledge is replacing ignor
ance and selfish arrogance.
In short, people are finding themselves and human
sympathy is becoming universal. Let every loyal citizen
help to make the armistice that was signed on November
11 The Armistice that will bind the world to a doctrine of
permanent peace.
PUBLIC RECEPTION TO VIOLIN.
1ST HELD LAST EVENING;
FINE AFFAIR
Marking heir farewell concert i,n
Alaska, Vilma Bazant, violinist, will be
heard this evening at the Liberty
theatre. Though playing to a capaci
ty house upon her first appearance a
few weeks ago, this evening’s concert I
holds every promise of being complete- j
j ly sold out with standing room at a j
Ipremimum for never before in the his. J
tory of the city has an artist so cap
tivated the public.
The entire program ror this even- 1
ing will be found on the front page of j
this issue. It will be seen that only
in the large cities of the States can be
found so pretentious a program of the
highest type of violin selections,. as
the talented and charming young art
ist will render this evening for her
home folks.
PUBLIC RECEPTION
Last evening a public reception wras
held for her, under the auspices of the
Seward Woman’s Club, in the Com
munity church, and there again w'as
demonstrated her growing popularity,
by the attendance which utilized al
most every available space. The af
fair was delightful and, provided many
of the citizens of the city an oppor
tunity of making her acquaintance for
the first time.
A beautiful string of ivory beads
•were presented to her as a moment©
of the esteem her friends hold for her.
Though the young girl’s ability haa
been lauded from one end of the coun
try to the other yet she remains un
spoiled. That was the frank admis
sion of all those who met her last
evening.
Needless tor say she was quite over
come with the favors showered upon
her at the reeception. She particu
larly endeared herself when she was
called upon to make a speech. It was
her first, it is stated, the very first
time she ever attempted to talk before
a public gathering. Her sincerity and
love for Alaska were expressed with a
wonderful depth of feeling and she.
also took occasion to thank her many
friends in Alaska for the interest they
have taken in, not only her career,
but herself, personally.
An entertaining program was pre
sented during the reception by Mr.
and Mrs. Groth, Mrs. Hatton, Mrs.
George Schmitt and Mr. Harrison.
Later refreshments were served.
The reception was a fitting close to
the visit of Vilma Bazant and her
mother, who depart Saturday for the
States, and reflects highly on the
thoughtfulness of the Seward Wo
man’s Club in arranging the affair.
Tomorrow afternoon, at the Jesse
Lee Home, Vilma Bazant has gracious
ly consented to play especially for .the
girls and boys.
This evening’s concert will begin
about 8:30 or directly following the
' conclusion of the News-Reel.
COMPLICATIONS SET IN
The report from the Anchorage hos
pital regarding the condition of Tech.
Sgt. Evans, who was operated upon
on Monday, is not as good as could be
wished for complications have set in.
It is not believed there is any immedi
ate danger, though, for he is resting
quietly.

Camel is the individual
among cigarettes
WHEN anything becomes as popular as
the cigarette is today, there are bound
to be countless brands bidding for favor.
Some use one appeal and some another.
Camel’s appeal—the appeal to the taste
with the choicest tobaccos grown — has
made such a hit with smokers that it leads
the world. There are many brands, but
only one first—Camel.
Camel leads the world!
