The King and the Duke of York attended the annual Armistice Service at the Cenotaph in Whitehall, London to pay tribute to the memory of those who sacrificed their-lives in the Great War. It was appropriate that, ten years after the great event, Armistice Day should fall on a Sunday. Whitehall was black with the thousands of people in the ceremony, and the impressive scene of the two minutes’ silence was only broken by the sobs of the behaved realtives. The picture shows the impressive scenes in whitehall during the service. -Central Press, Photo.
