HUNDREDS OF LOCAL PEOPLE TO ATTEND BIG CENTENNIAL Welcome Home Celebration, Anniversary of the Found- ing of the Town and the Peck Stowe & Wilcox
 Plant to Be Observed at Southington

Hundreds of local people will attend the big Centennial celebration to be held in Southington Friday, Saturday and Sunday, August 29, 30 and 31, when the combined Welcome Ilme celebration, anniversary of the found- ing of the town and the anniversary of the Peck Stowe & Wilcox plant will be observed. The celebration prom ises to be a gala one and extensive ar engagements are in the works for one of the biggest affairs in the history of the town.
 The celebration is of interest to many New Britainites, inasmuch as the Peck, Stowe & Wilcox company during the war conducted a branch of their main factory in this city taking care of some of the war orders Which they were unable to handle in the Southington factory, and supplied en- ployment for about 100 hands here.
 The Peck, Stowe & Wilcox Co.,, pio- neer manufacturers of timers ma chinery, mechanics hand tools, build ing hardware and blacksmiths' tools, is the animating spirit in the celebra- ton. 100 years before Seth Peck pat ented a machine for making t1nware

Hurley, publicity committee; Frank Galietti, cosmopolitan committee, and Dr. Charles Kelley, welfare com- mittee.
 The Peck, Stow and Wilcox com pany is distributing handsome n- lustrated brochure entitled, One Hundred Years of Progress" which sets down briefly and entertainingly the history of the company since 1919. The concern is the fruit of the con- solidation, in 1870, under the present name of the Peck Smith Manufac- turing company of Southington, which traced it's lineage back to Seth Peck; of the s. Stow Manufacturing com- pany, which had it's beginning in Huntsville in 1894 through the enter prise of Solomon Stow; and of the Roys and Wilcox company, which dates back to East Berlin in 1840- Samuel c. Wilcox was president of the Roys and Wilcox company at the time of the consolidation.
 Besides MT. Treadway, the officers of Pexto are: l.. E. Fichthorn, vice. president and general manager. Southington, and E. N. Walkley, Southington, secretary and treasurer. Directors are: President TreadWay; Frank c. Sumner, of Hartford; Gov ernor Holcomb; A. L. Sessions, of Bristol; Thomas J. Ray, who is man. ager of the Cleveland plant; Francis w. Treadway, of Cleveland; Frank l., Wilcox and John M. Holcombe, of Hartford.

and set up a business in Southingt on It prospered Gradually it expanded into what is now the Peck, Stowe &z WILCOX Co.,, and the reputation of the "Pexto' products is worldwide. It is the centenary of Seth Peck s venture that primarily is being cele- brated. Incidentally it is an acknnwl- edgment of Southington's debt of Ions standing to the firm that is being eX- pressed. And it is to be a grateful expression of the towns pride in her soldier boys that Southington joins the company in voicing. The Peck, Stowe & Wilcox Co. has made the event more than ordinarily memorable by presenting the town with q massive memorial to her soldier sons of every war without exception from the Revo- lution down to the recent locking of horns with Germany.
 Memorial Without Duplication.
 This memorial is unique in being perhaps without duplication in all America in that feature of carrying the name of every man any given community has sent to the front in the name of Liberty.

Not a war in which the United States has participated is missing from these rosters. The memorial stands on the village green, and the formal preSen- tation to the city will be made by Gov. M. H. HOlcOmb of Connecticut, on behalf of the company, of which he is a director.
 Pexto will further give expression of it's appreciation of Southington's loyalty by presenting to each of it's employees that had been upon the firm payroll more than four years with service medals appropriately engraved with the individual names and records of service. Five of these employees have been for more than 50 years in the company's employ; IS have seen more than 40 years continuous serv- ice. To all of these gold medals will be given. Sterling silver medals will be awarded to 53 others who have seen more than 25 years service while bronze medals will go to all the rest. These service badges will be presented personally by President Lyman H. Treadway, of Cleveland.
