Program For Memorial Day

At a recent meeting of the U.D.C., in the home of Mrs. E.H. Spivey, plans were 
made for the observance of Memorial Day on next Wednesday.

Thursday, Friday and Saturday of the past week were appointed as cleanup days 
at the cemetery, but only a few responded to the call.  It is urged that 
everybody rally to the cause, and get busy for the next few days.  The cemetery 
is in bad need of work.  Let the men send hands and go themselves to see that 
the work is well done.  Only a few more days, therefore we must work.

All veterans and their wives or next of kin are cordially invited to partake of 
a luncheon that will be served by the Daughters on that occasion.  Mrs. J.A. 
Butler is Chairman of committees.  The following programme will be the order of 
the day:

Date: Wednesday, April 26th
Hour: 2:30 o’clock
Place: Courthouse
Speaker, Judge T. Hicks Fort, Columbus
Introduction: Mr. A.P. Persons
Invocation: Rev. F.L. Ward
Music, directed by Mrs. J.A. Pendergrast
Master of Ceremonies, Dr. J.B. Douglass
Marshal of the Day, Mr. R. Leonard
Ushers, Messrs. J.W. Jordan, H.P. Westen, Perry Mahone, Bishop Douglass
