Cavalry to Lead Hickory's Halloween Parade, Oct. 26, 1922

Cavalry to Lead Halloween Parade

Capt. Jack Edwards, Lieutenants Joe Cilley and Fred Buff and about 25 members of the Black Horse troop will lead the hundreds of costumed characters in the big Halloween parade next Tuesday evening under the auspices of the Community Club. This will give the citizens their first sight of the local cavalry troop on parade since the promotion of Lieut. Edwards and other members of the company. The tents will also be loaned to the Community Club by Troop C.

Another feature aside from the parade will be the preparation of “Witches brew.” Boys and girls are asked to bring about 200 frogs and about 100 mice that are needed for the brew. These are to be delivered to the Mother Goose tent next Tuesday.

Merchants are being besieged by interested parties who are in search of material and suggestions for costumes which indicated that makeups of every description will be seen.
