la malarial districts their vlrtamud
Au Exposition.
To be held In Americus next fall.
Tb«t’s what baa been suggested.
And what is desired to be put be
fore the people.
It may be a little early to men
tion it, but it came up in connec
tion with the driving clnb idea,
which should be ready by spring.
And if the people want an expo
sition, it isn’t a bad idea to get a
good start, and give one of extra
ordinary tize and merit.
For that’s just what Americus Is
capable of doing.
Yesterday a group were standing
dibcussing the organization of the
driving clnb, or the taking of some
means to fix the handsome race
track they want to construct out at
Leeton. Suggestions were being
made as to the other amusements
which could take place in the en
closure, aud one of the party spoke
tbusly:
“Yes, I don't see any reason in
the world why we can’t fix up a
regular amusement park. I know
everybody will help us, and be de
lighted at the idea. When spring
arrives and trade is lees, we want
some place for recreation, and
some place where the afternoon
can be spent with enjoyment.
Then this amusement park is just
what we want. Horse racing just
any afternoon. A base ball game
whenever wanted. A gun club
can be easily organized, and shoot
ing matches arranged. I tell you,
I am enthused with the idea, and
we can’t afford to let it drop. We
can start now and have everything
running by spring, and all spring
and summer have these pleasures.”
“Yes,” put in another, “and why
not make a big encloaure while
we’re at it, and erect a building to
have a fair or something of the sort
in next fall. Or put up a big build
ing, and let’s have an exposition
“Sumter county has been sending
off exhibits and taking prizes at all
the expositions, and I don’t see
why we can’t have one here. We’ve
got the finest and most progressive
olty in the South to start on as an
exhibit. We’ve got more indus
tries of all kinds, and the finest
country on the earth to let folks
look at. Everybody has heard of
Americus, and those who haven’t
seen it would like to. So let’s give
them a chance to see it and In holt,
day clothes.”
This idea was seconded by all of
the group, and why shouldn’t we
have an exposition?
That we have the necessary qua!
ideations for a howling success in
this line, is certain.
And that we have dhe enterprls
ing men to start the movement and
keep it going is just as certain.
The idea is one that our people
should take hold of, and take bold
of in time to make a big success.
It may be a little premature to
mention it just now, but the young
men are going to fix up their race
track by spring, and if the people
want the expo some combination
should be made with those inter
ested in the driving club and save
needless expense.
