From a current edition of the Chicago Sun-Times more end of newspaper coverage as it was at the time of the end of the Great War.

"CHICAGO DAILY NEWS: ON THIS DATE"

"As  reported by the Chicago Daily News, sister paper of the Chicago Sun-Times."

"100 years ago."

"Chicago turned topsy-turvy today . ... Its millions of citizens gave themselves without bounds to the delirium of joy the news of the war's grand finale had evoked in them. Pandemonium was in the saddle wherever it citizens congregated. And the whole thing as a score or more funeral corteges seemed to indicate was a tribute - - or what would you call it? - - to former Kaiser Wilhelm. It was Chicago's way of mourning the German emperor. Moreover it was a part of the world's expression of it s emotions at the downfall of the Hohenzollerns. The military terms of the armistice are embraced in 11 specifications which include the evacuation of all invaded territories, the withdrawal of the German troops for the left bank of the Rhine and the surrender of all  supplies of war."
