I, Clinton, the Pea Ridge Community, has invited the surviving members of a group of 90 men who reported with him to Fort Jackaon, Colum bia. for service in World War I to be his guests Saturday afternoon, Oct. 11. beginning at 4:00 o’clock. Listed below are names of the men, supplied by Mr. Sumerel, all from this section, many of whom are no longer living. He wants all who can be reached through notices in newspapers, or messages from relatives or friends, to gather at his home for the afternoon. He asks that all men who can be reached acknowledge the invitation so he will have some idea as to how- many to expect. His home may be reached either from Clinton or Laurens. If from Clinton, go out Highway 308 and turn right at the Goodwin home, and signs will be placed along the road from there. If from Laurens, cross Highway at 308 at the Goodwin place and keep going. Mr. Sumerel states that he wants the veterans to sample the many Career Days Series ML T.
