    2. JUNIATA All persons who are willing to furnish an automobile for the Old Home Day parade, are asked to leave work with E. J. Miller at the M. and M. store as soon as possible. Fifty-five citizens have pledged their cars and about two dozen more are needed to complete the transportation of the War Mothers, soldier casuals and Civil war veterans. All automobiles will park on Seventh street below Fourth avenue at 1:30 p. m. Some changes have been made in the formation of the parade. It will form on Fourth avenue and Fifteenth street instead of Eighth street as previously announced. The War Mothers will assemble at the Y. M. C. C. at 1:30 o'clock, but all other units of the pageant will form east of Fifteenth street. Members of the home defense police will not wear uniforms, but will march as their own choice as citizens.
