Evening Republican, Volume 18, Number 201, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 26 August 1914 — Fountain Park. [ARTICLE]

Fountain Park.

The programs at the park are keeping up their high standard and offer a pleasing variety. The lecturers have all made good. Sylvester Long on the second Sunday spoke to an immense throng, and made them hear above the strong wind which preceded the welcome rain. Each musical company, and there have been several, has quickly proven popular and appealed to the sentiment of the crowd. The Dutch lovers, their quaint Costumes and “Clang of the Wooden Shoe, happy sound of the days gone by, will ring in my heart for aye.” More and better musical treats are dated for this week. The Bula Buck Co. on Tuesday and Wednesday; the Oxford Co. Thursday and, Friday; and the last Saturday and Sunday the famous Williams Jubilee singers. On old settlers’ day, Thursday, Adrlifh, ‘The Burbank Man,” comes with his wonderful creations of plant life direct from the gardens of Luther BuHbank. ! Each day’s program is full of gopd treats.
