Bugle
At 11 a. m. on Nov. 11, 1918, one Corporal Sellier pursed his lips, pressed a bugle against them and sounded the call for which the world had waited too long, "Cease fire!"
Last week "the bugle which stopped the World War" was deposited at Les Invalides, the great Paris War Museum, where may also be seen the railroad car in which the Armistice was signed-- the whole appropriately within a stone's throw of where Napoleon lies, locked in his enormous vault with the keyhole shaped like a letter "N."
Marshal Foch attended the ceremony of placing the bugle in its case. With him came General Gouraud, now Military Governor of Paris. To them came bugler Corporal Sellier. Upon his chest the one-armed General Gouraud pinned the Croix de Guerre.
