Junior Order to Hold Picnic July 4th, 1923

Juniors Meet on Glorious Fourth

The annual Junior Order picnic of Rockingham county will be held at the Playground, near Wentworth, July 4th, beginning in the a.m. Prominent speakers will be present to address the people, among them Judge N.L. Eure of Greensboro, chairman of the state law committee; former chief supreme judge, Hon. C.O. McMichael; Hon. J.R. Joyce, national deputy; the state vice councillor, and others. One of the pleasing features will be the presentation of a flag by the Junior Order to the County Playground. There will also be short talks by prominent Juniors and the program will be interspersed with appropriate music.

Every Junior in Rockingham county is expected to be present and bring a well filled basket. This will be a basket picnic and a general get-together meeting of all Juniors, their families and friends. It is hoped to make it the greatest Junior Order occasion that has ever been held in the state.
