Evening Republican, Volume 17, Number 62, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 13 March 1913 — BAND CONCERT AND MUSICAL TONIGHT [ARTICLE]

BAND CONCERT AND MUSICAL TONIGHT

The boys’ band will give a musical benefit at the M. E. church tonight. This organization has been the means of g great amount of enjoyment to our people and has always exhibited the spirit of enterprise by playing on the occasion of all large gatherings. They have solved the band problem, which had troubled Rensselaer for some years prior to the time Prof. Braun took hold and started the boys into the musical game. They have given us splendid concerts for three years and have developed into a splendid band, a band that our city can well feel proud of. They have not asked

any assistance all winter and this is the first money' making venture they have undertaken. They should have a big crowd and every person in Rensselaer should he glad to patronize them. In years gone by when we had difficulty in maintaining a band organisation, a subscription paper to help organize one was a yearly occurrence. But this hand has the appearance of stability and it is up to the public to show their appreciation by liberal patronage. We are this week unloading another car of flour, making our 4th car for this year. Quality is what sells pour. “Aristos,” the perfect pour, $1.35; “Lord’s Best” st3o; Washburn Crosby’s “(Sold Medal,” $1.25; and “Citadel,” $1.15. JOHN EGER
