that'it is fitting that something be
done to show the boys that their
services were appreciated.
About two weeks ago a post of
the American Legion of Honor
was organized at Winder, and it
is the desire of the membership
that every soldier and sailor who
went to the war from Barrow
county' or who was in any branch
of the sendee from Harrow in
scribe his name upon the rolls of
the American Legion.
The local post is named in hon
or ot the first Barrow bounty sol
dier w lm lost his life in the World
war—John Rich Pentecost. The
primary object of the celebration
on the part of the hoys is to get
all of the soldiers amt sailors to
gether, and the primary' object of
the citizens who tune interested
themselves in the gathering is t<
show the hoys a good time.
bn that day the ladies are in
vited to bring well-filled baskets
and meet the bovs at the fair
grounds, where the American Le
gion w ill serve brim,su irk stew.
Two of the most prominent men
of the ntion have been invited to
address the gathering on the occa
sion. and should they fail to ac
cept the invitation by reason of
press of oftieiat business, 1 lie com
mittee appointed to provide
speakers will secure wcll-equiped
substitutes.
I
The celebration is o he open to
the public and every body in Bar
row county is invited and urged
to attend. In other words il is to
he agree-for all open picnic in
honor of the boys with the hoys
setting ’em up to briinswiek stew.
Don’t forget the date, and come
to the celebration and speaking,
November 11th.
