Arranging Welcome Cele
bration on September G

come Home celebration for the re
turned service men of the town and
surrounding districts. September 6
I is the date chosen for the celebra
tion. Thirty-four soldiers will sit
down to a sumptuous banquet now
being arranged for by the ladies of
the town and vicinity. The pro
gram is to consist of two excellent
band concerts, sports and athletic
for the younger generation, a min
strel show and a parade which will
be participated in by the returned

the Harrisburg Red Cross, the var
ious fraternal orders of the town

sist of community singing and ad
dresses by prominent speakers.

formed a religious service commit
tee which will nrrango for the re
ligious side of the affair. A care
fully selected financial committee
is now actively at work raising
funds for the gala day and reports
favorable progress along this lino.
The people of Linglestown rec
ognize that this Is the largest af
fair of the sort they have over at
tempted to stage and no efforts are
being spared to make it a success.
It was first suggested that it was
too late to arouse much enthusiasm,
but this argument has been offset
bv the fact that by the Sept. 6 every
boy from the regular army division
will have returned home, so that
the celebration will be a true, wel
come, not only to some of the boys
as was the case in the premature
celebrations, but to evey boy who
entered service.

on this project are: Dr. H. C.
Smith, honorary chairman; O. B.

TO GIVE MEDALS
TO NON-JEWS
Jewish Relief Committee Ap
preciates Help From
Outsidj
New York. August 16. ln recog
nition of signal services on behalf
of the Jewish people, the American
Jewish Relief Committee for suffer
ers from the war will award spe
cially struck medals to prominent
non-Jews in many states. The names
of the recipients of this honor will
be announced shortly. They will
all be men and women who during
the trying years of the war and in
the present crisis of stricken Jewry
have devoted time and energy "above
and beyond the line of duty" to
furthering efforts for the relief of
the starving Jews abroad.
The American Jewish Relief Com
mittee is the National organization
which has raised over $26,000,000
for Jewish war relief and its chair
man is Louis Marshall. Other mem
bers of the committee are Jacob
Jl. Schiff, Henry Morgenthau, Na
than Straus, Felix M. Warburg, Jul
ius Rosenwuld, Cyrus Adler and a
long list of prominent Jews in every
State in the Union.
In announcing the plans to award
this medal, Henry H. Rosenfelt, di
rector of the committee said: "The
Jews of America cannot, and will
not, forget the magnificent service
rendered by men and women not
of their faith, who at great personal
sacrifice have responded to the call
to service in aiding the millions of
unhappy people in the war-devas
tated areas. As a symbol of Jewry's
appreciation for this unstinted aid
and assistance, a limited number of
medals will be awarded to these
men and women and will serve to
preserve for posterity the high hu
manitarian efforts of these splendid
Americans who are above racial dis
criminations while human suffering
exists."
The medal is of bronze and was
designed by J. Kilenyi now of New
York, a well known Argentinian
sculptor. It is one of the finest
modern examples of the medal
lurgist's art. The face of the medal
shows a kneeling woman and two
children grouped appealingly before
a figure of Columbia. Behind the
figures is an altar flanked on each
side by a seven-branched candle
stick and a six-pointed star of Da
vid, emblem of Jewry since time im
memorial. In reverse the medal
bears the inscription:
"Humanity Called and You Nobly
Responded."
State chairmen of the American
Jewish Relief Committee will recom
mend to the National body at New
York the names of those eligible
for this award.
