NUMBER 33
The World Is Safe
Thanks to the Millions of American
boys who went “over the top’’in
the world war, and as a result of
their heroism and valour we are
enabled to observe Armistice Day—
a day which signifies the world has
been made safe for our men, wo-
men and children.
We close today in honor of our brave boys.
Farmers State Bank
THE FARMERS' FRIEND
should have a couple* of good)
I cows to raise from and to supply
the family with milk and butterj
|with perhaps some oieam to sell,!
or some extra milk for hog,, and:
{thickens; then raise enough hogs
to make meat enough for family {
!use and to supply any renters on!
the farm, and to keep 25 to 5f
good hens.
Mention was made of some
[new enterprises (being consider-!
id for Naples, but it being the
policy of The Monitor to state
about these matters- only after
they are certainties, wo do not
I give any particulars of the en-
terprises mentioned at the meet-
ling.
II was decided to have another
j Trades, Day in Naples some time
[between December tilth and 25th,
[the exact date to lie decided and
{announced within the next fobs
days.
The people may look for some-
thing of extraordinary values at
j this Trades) Day.
The met chants pf Naples arc
determined to make the next
Trades Day a record broker for
inducement^ for people to come
lo Naples as well as a record {
{crowd in Naples. The ?)!ogan ’
i for this day will be “C000 people
[ in Naples.”

ARMISTICE DAY
Let us pause to honor the courageous
men and women who crossed the seas and
did their “bit" for (his generation and the
generations to come—
Let us pause to revere those who died
for so great a cause—
Each succeeding year enhances the glory
of their victory and its farreaching bene-
fits to all mankind.

Dial Smith is the outstanding
candidate, with no organized op-
position that seems to be making
any tread way. His stock
may .'dump, but it is, quoted high-

political board.
The facts are there are really
practically no candidate- in the
field against him who oppose his
views on Die wot question, which
at presenl is being made a very
niftoitant issue.

I may Ik* changed before conven-

applies to all of them except

if he is iu a position to go beyond

As pointed out before, this

In so far as Senator Butlie is
concerned, he is personally lor
Mr. Coolidge and his attitude is
Darted on that personal consid-
eration.
Those who are sharing h:s
thought that tiie President must
