Patriotic Addresses” from the June 8, 1922, issue of the Watauga Democrat, Boone
Two U.S. Army
Aeroplanes to Boone for 4th Celebration—Lenoir American Legion Band
of 30 Men Also Contracted for That Day
Word was received from Senator Overman of Washington, D.C.,
and Col. Bowley of Camp Bragg that two Army aeroplanes of the war time type will
be sent to Boone for the 4th of July celebration. The Watauga post,
American Legion, who are sponsoring this day are sparing no time or expense to
make this the biggest and best that has ever been held in this section, the
aeroplanes being just a part of the many novelties and amusements.
The Lenoir American Legion band of 30 professional musicians
and of exceptional ability have been contracted for and will help make this day
long to be remembered by young and old. Patriotic addresses, ball games, races,
sports of all kinds and amusements of all kinds are being signed up from day to
day and will be published as soon as they are certain that they will be here.
