Thursday was a red letter day in the history of Crawfordsviile. To bo mors accura e, it was a blue, yellow and red date, as the threo lodge colors of the Knights of Pythias flapped and floated everywhere. The executive committee of DeBayard lodge and business men are to be given much credit for tho elaborate decorations made. Tho residents on Washington and Main streets along the lino of march were also profusely adorned with both tho K. of P. and national colors.

When the parade had formed and was ready to move at precisoly 11 0 clock the line of march was a regular sea of people. The weather was perfect. Four bands—Lafayette, New Richmond, Darlington and Crawfordsviile—were intersperced through the parade. The order in which the column was made up, was as follows:
