Country Style Dinner on
Ground, Everybody Bring
ing Picnic Basket.

The people Of Cordele and Crisp
county are going to extend their for
NAL welcome to the soldiers on their
return from the World War at coun-
trystyle dinner July Fourth. If you
live within reach and doubt whether
the country style dinner will be there,
come and see for Yourself but don't
forget your basket This is your for
NAL invitation Everybody will be on
an equal footing and everybody will
be expected to behave like they do at
the real genuine countryside pic
mic.
At the country-style picnic every
body waits till dinner is ready. Every
body eats all he wants wherever he
finds it, and then helps to see that the
other fellow gets what he wants. The
person who has no basket and who
has sick folks at home who should
have choice leg of mutton taken
away, doesn't attend the country-style
barbecue and basket dinner. That
kind of person will not attend the
homecoming for the soldiers. The
country-style barbecue and dinner is
too rich for sick folks and those who
serve the dinner for the frlks on July
Fourth are not going to save any of it
for other people
Those who come to the soldiers
home coming spread are going TIC
bring full baskets That's part of the
program. You are iavited to conn
and behave just as if you were at the
countryside barbecue. 1t is for every
body in the county.
There will be two brass bands to
furnish music for all occasions. The
dinner will be on the shaded square
at the Williams Swimming Pool. There
will be plenty of table room. One
Of the bands will be composed of home
players This band will play at the
court house and at the picnic grounds.
Another band will come from Way
cross. This band will be SO placed to
render good music for all occasions.
Both will be so placed as to render
the best patriotic music at all Occa-
'ions. 1t is expected that the home
band will be special attraction, as
his will be their first public appear
ance.
