Jasper County Democrat, Volume 23, Number 28, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 3 July 1920 — “COLLEGE INN" RESTAURANT [ARTICLE]
“COLLEGE INN" RESTAURANT
Opened Wednesday Evening and la Doing a Thriving Business. The new “College Inn” short order restaurant in the Mrs. Haus building on Washington street was opened to the public for the first time Wednesday evening and enjoyed a splendid trade all evening. , The proprietors had been handicapped by failure of their fixtures to arrive, and as a consequence the opening was delayed about a week. As it was, their tables had not come Wednesday, but as everything else was In readiness tables werg borrowed temporarilly and they oj>eneu up band concert night. The room occupied has been thoroughly renovated and redecorated and presents a neat and clean appearance, while the furnishings are bright and brand-new, thus making a very attractive place- indeed. In addition to handling ice cream, candy, cigars, soft drinks, etc., all kinds of short order eats will be served at reasonable prices. Such a place has been sorely needed in Rensselaer for the past several months, and The Democrat is glad that someone has shown enough public spirit to make an effort to supply this need. Messrs. Murphy and Wallace have been to a large expense in fitting up their place and the public should show its appreciation by giving them a liberal patronage. ,
