Veterans Day:
A Day to Honor All
Those who Served
In the United States, Veterans
Day annually falls on Nov. 11. This
day is the anniversary of the signing
of the armistice, which ended the
World War I hostilities between
the Allied nations and Germany
in 1918. Veterans are thanked for
their services to the United States on
Veterans Day.
Veterans Day is intended to honor
and thank all military personnel
who served the United States in all
wars, particularly living veterans. It
is marked by parades and church
services and in many places the
American flag is hung at half mast. A
period of silence lasting two minutes
may be held at 11 a.m. Some
schools are closed on Veterans Day,
while others do not close, but choose
to mark the occasion with special
assemblies or other activities.
Veterans Day is officially observed
on Nov. 11. However, if it falls on a
week day, many communities hold
their celebrations on the weekend
closest to this date. This is to
enable more people to attend and
participate in the events. Federal
Government offices are closed
on Nov. 11. If Veterans Day falls
on a Saturday, they are closed on
Friday, Nov. 10. If Veterans Day
falls on a Sunday, they are closed on
Monday, Nov. 12. State and local
governments, schools and nongovernmental businesses are not
required to close and may decide
to remain open or closed. Public
transit systems may follow a regular
or holiday schedule.
On the 11th hour of the 11th
day of the 11th month of 1918 an
armistice between Germany and the
Allied nations came into effect. On
Nov. 11, 1919, Armistice Day was
commemorated for the first time. In
1919, President Wilson proclaimed
the day should be filled with solemn
pride in the heroism of those who
died in the countrys service and with
gratitude for the victory. There were
plans for parades, public meetings
and a brief suspension of business
activities at 11am.
In 1926, the United States
Congress officially recognized the

Your Best Friend Can Still Have Fun While You Work:

You can still drive by 117 Lowell Road and look
upon the old homestead as it stands today. The
farmland was sold when Rose downsized. Rose
passed away in 1996. Although you are driving
by the old farmland for memories, much of it has
evolved into Fox Hollow as well as Teledyne, the
memories are never to be forgotten. Thanks to
Angela Rose (Jette) Dickman, granddaughter of Rose
and Edmond, for the memories and photo of 117
Lowell Road.

The scene came directly from the movie Animal House. What
better time could a young Cub Scout have but to toss a whipped
cream pie into the face of their choosing?
Such was the event at the annual pack meeting, which celebrated
the selling of popcorn as a Cub Scout fundraiser.
