WELCOME HOME
CELEBRATION TO
BEGIN TONIGHT
Everything in Readiness For
Big Event in Upper End
of County

The big celebration is under way
at last. Beginning with the street
carnival which the people of Wico-
nisco are putting on this evening, the
Lykens- -Wiconisco Homecoming Cele-
bration is off to a big start.
Practically everything is arranged.
Decorations are everywhere about
the place, arches, crosses, pillars and
flags in profusion; the parade is all
prepared and only awaits the start
ing signal; the crowds are pouring
into town and taxing the capacity of
the hotels; in fact, if there has been
anything neglected in the general
preparation to make this just about
the biggest celebration the State has
ever seen, the soldiers who are to be
honored can't imagine what 1t is.
Among the visitors on Saturday
will be Captain and Mrs. Robert w
Lesher, of this city. Captain Lesher,
formerly of the United States Caval-
ry, was for a long time head of the
recruiting party in Harrisburg and
stood at the head of his class in the
number Of recruits enlisted. Lieu
tenant Young will accompany the
captain to Lykens.
H. E. Burlington, head of the
publicity committee, was in Harris
burg yesterday making the final ar
rangements for the supply of mill
tary equipment that will be used in
the big military display that is to
be staged on Friday. Machine guns,
automatic rifles, the regular Spring
field automatic and all manner of
like material will be used; this to be
supplied by the State Arsenal.
