| Poster Text French | Republique Francaise. Conseil Municipal de Paris. Habitants de Paris. C’est la Victoire, la Victoire Triomphale; sur tous les fronts l’ennemi vaincu a déposé les armes, le sang va cesser de couler. Que Paris sorte de la fière réserve qui lui a valu l’admiration du monde. Donnons un libre cours à notre joie, à notre enthousiasme et refoulons nos larmes. Pour témoigner à nos grands Soldats et à leurs incomparables Chefs notre reconnaissance infinite, pavoisons toutes nos maisons aux couleurs françaises et à celles de nos chers alliés. Nos morts peuvent dormer en paix, le sublime sacrifice qu’ils ont fait de leur vie à l’avenir de la race et au salut de la Patrie ne sera pas stérile. Pour eux comme pour nous “le jour de gloire est arrivé”. Vive la République! Vive la France Immortelle! Pour le Conseil Municipal, Le Bureau: Adrien Mithouard, Président; Chausse, Chassaigne Goyon, Adolphe Chérioux, Henri Rousselle, Vice-Présidents; Georges Pointel, Le Corbeller, George Lemarchand, Fiancette, Secrétaires: André Gent, Syndic. |
| English Translation | French Republic: Municipal Counsel of Paris: Inhabitants of Paris. It is Victory, triumphant Victory; on all fronts the conquered enemy has laid down its arms; blood will cease to flow. May Paris come out of her proud reserve, which has earned her the world’s admiration let us give free course to our joy, our enthusiasm and let us force back our tears to bear witness to our great Soldiers and to their incomparable leaders our infinite recognition; put out on all our homes the French colors and those of our dear allies. “Our dead can rest in peace; the sublime sacrifice that they have made with their lives for the future of the race and the thanks of the Country will not be in vain.” For them as for us, “the day of glory has arrived.” |
