Rensselaer Semi-Weekly Republican, Volume 41, Number 104, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 17 September 1909 — Horse Show Proposed For Last Week In September. [ARTICLE]

Horse Show Proposed For Last Week In September.

Initiatory steps were taken Monday afternoon to have a horse show with a few wholesome side attractions for the last week of this month or the first week of next. A sounding of the restaurant men was made and it is thought- that an event can be pulled off that will be very creditable. Elizur Sage headed the list of contributors with SSO, for awards to colts sired by his horse, and other horse owners are also expected to give liberally. Baseball games, a good band, a balloon ascension and a good live time with a program that will attract every person within a twenty-five mile radius is proposed. Whoop ’em up, be alive and help make and keep Rensselaer at the front.
