Arrange Centennial Celebration.

Seymour.—Arrangements are being made by the county committee for the celebration of the Indiana centennial. The county was organized in 1815 and this event will be observed at the same time. Committees have been appointed in each township to work out their own celebrations. A celebration of three or four days will be held in this city, the date to be fixed later. It is suggested that the annual fall festival and centennial celebration be combined. A home-coming will be a feature of the celebration. A Jackson County Historical society is to be organized this month as a feature of the centennial year. Local club women and others interested in preserving the history of the county will co-operate with the movement.
