ARION, Oct. 2S-Special-
Hurrah! Mrs. L. c. Butler, Presi'
dent of the Arion Red Cross, called a
business meeting of the members on
Friday evening to plan the big home
coming. There was a goodly number
present and, a more enthusiastic crowd
could not be found anywhere. The
l1th of November was decided on for
the date of the big day. Committees
on invitations, decorations, program,
refreshments, table, ETC., were named
and each committee will take up the
work at once. There is no doubt but
that 11-11419 will be second only to
Hills and will be the biggest and
most glorious day in the history OF
our little city as some of the best
people in Old Crawford are behind it,
and for the boys who sailed forth
and spent months and some Of them
years in camp and on the battle fields
for US, we are going to give one grand
old holiday. Further details and pro.
grams will appear in the next issue OF
the Review, and it will be worth while
to look it up.
