Jasper County Democrat, Volume 13, Number 73, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 24 December 1910 — TO CHICAGO TUESDAY [ARTICLE]

TO CHICAGO TUESDAY

Will Go the Winners In The Democrat’s Chicago Trip Contest. The winners of second place in The Democrat’s recent voting contest, which prize was a two days trip to Chicago, wdll leave Rensselaer next-Tuesday on the 10:05 a. m., train, which reaches Chicago at 12:10 p. m. The young ladies to go on this trip will be accompanied by the editor and wife, and the party will stop while in Chicago at the Palmer House. Tuesday afternoon will be spent.in the shopping district and sight-seeing, and Tuesday night the party will take in “In Old Kentucky,” at McVicker’s theater, which old favorite play opens a two weeks engagement at this popular play house to-morrow. _ . - Wednesday will be spent as the party may see fit and the return home will be made on any train desired Wednesday. The young ladies who were fortunate enough to win this trip are: Misses Nellie Osborne, of Gilliam tp.; Ruth Yeoman, of Newton tp., and Estella Taylor, of Carpenter tp., and we hope they will enjoy every minute of the trip. ' '

It was originally intended that the New York trip, for the first place winners, would be taken during holidays, but the young ladies who won out in this contest, Misses Fern Casey of Union tp., Rosabell Daugherty of Barkley tp., and Nellie Eck of Carpenter tp., prefer to put the trip off until next summer, which will be a much more favorable

time for making the eastern tour, and it has been decided to do so. The precise date for making the trip has therefore not been decided upon and will not be for some time yet, but we are taking th.e matter up with the railroads and as soon as rates and route is definitely decided upon we will let it be known through the columns of The Democrat. Quite a number of other young ladies of Rensselaer and vicinity have stated to The Democrat that they would like to go along on this New' York trip and pay their way, of course, and it may be that a rate can be secured that will be an inducement for quite a party to go besides the three young ladies whose expensed will be paid by The Democrat and the editor and wife, w'ho also expect to go along. There will be at least five in the party, therefore, and perhaps two or three times this number.
