The following apt editorial in The
Charleston Evening Post of Monday
so dearly expresses the sentiments
of The Press and Standard, that -we
take .pleasure In giving It space and
endorsing the well written senti-
taents contained therein:
:“At daybreak this morning
the cloud of war . lifted from
Europe and the agony of more
than four ySars whlclr Germany
brought upon the world en<Jed.
•‘What ehangejr 'it t has
wrought, .what problems It has
raad.e. what sears It has left
and what Inspirations given to
mankind . will occupy men's
speculations and discussions
for centuries.
"At this moment there is
room for hut one sentiment—
: gratitude to God that the .mad
ness of war has burned Itself
out and consumed the authors
of the great crime against hu
manity and laid their ambitions
in ashes.
"Great Joy fills the world to
day, and especially in this hap
py land, whose eyes are fixed
across the seas, where two mil
lion amerlcan youths, arrayed
In battle line, heard this morn
ing the bugle recall. They are
coming home, it may be montha
hence, but' they are . coming
home!
"A chorus of joy, a swelling
hymn of thanksgiving, faith in
n our paat, hope in our future, c
and let us say, charity for the
blasted peoples whif are pay-
. ing In bitterdeas today for the
afflictions they have wrought,
will fill-the hearts of the Ameri
can people.
It Is a day well fttven to
celebration. Victory has been ^
won for liberty and democracy,
and peace once more dwells on
