of interest		WORLD WAR ENDED: EVERYBODY HAPPY The greatest piece of news in the history of the world was passed over the wire in the early hours of Monday morning, Nov. 11, reaching Seattle and Everett about 12:30 am. and almost immediately the whistles began to blow and the celebrating began and was kept up the remainder of the night, at least in Seattle and no doubt in all the larger cities through out the nation. In Marysville the word was received my the mills about 3 o'clock and their whistles were soon blowing till the entire town was awake. Every mill shut down for the day and many of our people went to Everett where the Elks led a parade at 10 am and the L.L.L.L.'s at 1 pm. Every device for noise making was brought into use and it was the noisest day ever know in Everett. What it was in Seattle and the eastern cities can hardly be imagined. In Marysville noting was done till evening, when the desire to give vent to the over wrought feelings found expression in a procession staged by some of the Red Cross and Service League ladies who started out with tin pans, bells, and anything that would make a noise and gathered up a crowd that made the welkin ring over the main streets of our little city. Finally a bonfire was started and by its light some patriotic singing was indulged in until voices grew hoarse and feet grew tired. It may seem silly for a lot of grownup people to indulge in such demonstrations, but it gets something out of the system that must find vent after such a strain as has been put upon the people during these heartbreaking times.
