Governor Hoey To Speak In Weldon On Sept. 1st At Public Festival-Rally Official announcement was made in Weldon Friday of a tentative program for the big Junior Rally to be held September 1st. Governor Clyde R. Hoey has agreed to come to Weldon and make the principal address on the occasion. This Festival-Rally is for the public, according to a letter to The Herald from Frank I. Robinson, ofr the Junior committee, who re grets that other advance publicity left the impression that the day might be for members of the Ju nior Order only. Only connection the Juniors have, says Mr. Robinson, is to sponsor the affair which is a big public day for all this section. All busi ness firms are invited to prepare floats and other advertising matter for the parade and the public is inyited to attend and participate in all parts of the program. The Rally Day, sponsored by Weldon Junior Order Council No. 270, is expected to attract a large number of Junior members and officials from all over the State. Several National officials of the Order are expected to attend and take part in the program. The official program, barring a few’ minor changes, will be as fol lows : 10:30 a.m.—Welcome on behalf of town of Weldon by Mayor. Wel come by Junior Order spokesman ind Response by District Junior Order member. 11:30—Music by band. Parade Order members. Music by band. Parade and Floats and other at tractions.
