How About a 4th of July Celebration Here?

How about a 4th of July celebration in Rensselaer this year? If anything is to be done it is time the matter was started and active work begun toward raising funds and arranging a program. We should have a good celebration here every year, and it is a mistake all around not to do so. It provides entertainment for people of this vicinity who will go some place to spend the 4th, and thereby keeps a large amount of mbney in this community that would otherwise go elsewhere.
