What are yon doing to help make a success of the Big Jubilee? Talk the big day, morning, noon and night. Make a voice that will be heard the county over. Clinton’s big day is going to be a success in the measure that our people give it their support. It’s up to you! THE STARTING POINT. The comfneu cement ^season, with till its^pleasures, is witm us again. Graduation day with all its dowers and expectations is upon us. To reach this period is no unimportant event to those whose aspirations lead to it. But we wonder how many of our young people think of it 'as an end. while now all things “are not finished but begun’’. It is out of school life into life’s school, where the theoretical must (five place to the practical; the fic titious to the real. Diploma day is but, the opening door—-a passport into an undeveloped field. So far there has been simply a skirmish ing. The great battle, the victory and the crown, lie beyond; there fore say not young folks, “I am through/’ but better think of it, “just begun . y y THE BIG CELEBRATION. The outlook is unusually good for Clinton’s Big Jubilee Day on Saturday,^June 7th. It is expect ed that several thousand visitors will he- here for the day and a pro- gi'am filled with interest will be presented to our guests. To make a success of the under- taking every citizen must fulfill his or her obligation. As the many strangers come as our guests, the responsibility is upon us to see to it that all are given a cordi'al wel come and made to feel at home. We are called upon to show our hos pitality and if we haven’t 'any, it will be found out. Let’s receive the .Jubilee crowd with a warm wel come. Make yourself into an en tertaining committee and do eveiyv thing possible to provide for the comfort and pleasure of our guests. Do this and vdl will go away with a good taste in their mouths. TO THE AUTOMOBILE OWN ERS OF CLINTON The undersigned does not be lieve that there is any one resid ing in our city who does not want to see the biggest crowd with us on June 7th, that have ever been with in our gates. We have invited these people to be our guests. Thpy must he entertained. We owe it to them, so don’t dissappoint them in that entertainment. We have decid ed that one of the features of that day will be a big parade, both military and|spectacular. Ail soldiers and sailors are invited to partieipate in the parade, which will also consist of business floats, pleasure cars, anc^gricul- tural floats. J The business houses have prom ised us fifty floats, the agricul tural floats, we, of course, are expecting from our faimer friends, and feel that we will not be dissappointed by them, but how about the pleasure cars? We want at least fifty of them, and we earnestly request that each ar.d every lady in Clinton and the surrounding territory decorate her car and have it in line on June 7th. Please do not leave until the last moment. Mrs. J. R. Copeland has a large number of illustrations of floats, which can be seen at the J. H. Phinney & Co.’s store, which might help you out in suggestions, although original ideas would be much pre ferred: Lets make this a parade to be remembered. Its not only cele brating our old Anniversary Day, but also the home coming of our boys, who answered their coun try’s call- ' It is little that we ask of you, merely the decoration of your car to help to make the welcome to our fellows more impressive. Yours very truly. Geo. H. Ellis Chairman, Parade Committee. fry/ IT \ ... _ f ....
