Rensselaer Semi-Weekly Republican, Volume 41, Number 35, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 12 January 1909 — On the Home Stretch. [ARTICLE]

On the Home Stretch.

All the lots in the Factory Addition are sold but three, and the cash subscriptions have begun. It will take a hard pull to raise the balance of the fund but it is worth the effort, and the committee is going after it. They hope to be ready to break ground for the new factory in March. A pull all together is all that is needed. Come to the meeting at the court house tonight (Wednesday.) In addition to the Arc and Electric theatre benefits-there will be a week of 10 cent vaudeville at the opera house beginning Thursday night of this week, 25 per cent of the proceeds to go to the factory fund. There are eight people in the company, and Manager Johnson promises a strong clean show every evening—Monticello Herald.
