Jasper County Democrat, Volume 17, Number 7, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 29 April 1914 — The Only Southern Show. [ARTICLE]
The Only Southern Show.
The Mighty Haag railroad shows, which exhibit at Rensselaer on Wednesday, May 6, are the only shows backed by southern capital, owned by a southern gentleman and managed by southern brains, Mr. Ernest Haag, owner of the show, lives at Shreveport, La., where the winter quarters of the show are, and the password in Shreveport is “Let us go out to the Haag’s show’s winter headquarters.”
Remember when attending the Mighty Haag shows you are patronizing the only southern show. Remember the day and date. In organizing the Mighty Haag shows, for this their 18th transcontinental tour, the proprietor, Mr. E. Haag, decided to once more outdistance any rivals for public favor and on Wednesday, May 6, when the Mighty Haag shows exhibit at Rensselaer, you will be treated to one of the finest performances ever presented under a tent. Among the artists are The Incomparable Flying Gusseons, direct from Paris, and have never appeared in America before; The Millers, in esquestrian numbers different than all
others; The Winslows, bounding and slack wire artists, presenting wire acts extraordinary; the YaHoma Imperial Troupe of Japs without doubt rightly named “Imperial,” as their equals are not in America. —Advt.
