Have You Seen the Way Our Depot Is Kept Up?

Rensselaer visitors, many of whom have been coming here off and on for years and who have noticed with pleasure the manner in which our town is kept up, have had a new cause for complimenting us recently. Agent Beam and his aides at the depot have made a sort of floral conservatory of the waiting room, having a large box of flowers at each window and baskets hanging from the walls. They receive many well-deserved compliments and are doing their part toward making a better Rensselaer. If you do not happen to have occasion to visit the depot it will be of interest to you to make a special trip there Sunday or some other time and see how nicely our station looks and compare it in your mind’s eye With the old depot. Rensselaer will grow in commercial importance and in social and educational value by every good deed its citizens perform. What are you doing to help it along.
