stands and aloof with
Jack Pitts, Lions Raymond
Cooper. Grady Djpree and o-
chers there will be plenty to
eat and drink all during the
Rodeo. Someone has said the
first half of life Is spent in
longing for the second; these,
cond in regretting the first.
See you Thursday at die big
Rodeo Kick .Off Banquet at
Pineview.
It's Rodeo Time in Rusk,Te-
xas, and all cows and calves
have been turned together and
nobody Is gonna milk no more
until the Rodeo Is over. Signs
are up and posters have been
placed over the entire area
surrounding us, arena to be
one of the finest In East Tex-
as, the best parade ever Thu-
rsday being arranged by Lions
Paul B, Cox and Rex Nichols
everything ready for the word
"Go". Lion Robert von Doen-
hoff, Rodeo Chairman, stated
last week that if anything went
wrong it was 33-1/3 per cent
his fault and 66-2/3 per cent
the fault of the Rusk Lions
Club for electing him Rodeo
Chairman In the first place.
All Rdoeo Chairmen In the
past have felt that way, but by
hard work and sweat and ots
of help for "The Man Upstairs
each show has been bigger and
better than the one before. By
having the rain the first part of
the week everybody will be In
the mood for a big time. May
this be the biggest and best
ever.
The big kick-off banquet will
be at the Pineview Restartant
Thursday at noon. There are
so many that have worked so
hard on the Rodeo Arena that
it was felt that it would be im-
possible to haul chairs, tables
etc. to have a barbecue on the
Court House lawn. Also the
ladies, Lioness that Is, would
have had to prepare some food
and Lion von Doenhoff thought
it would be asking too much of
them to do this and work at the
Rodeo each night. So you see
ladies, Lion Robert is looking
after you.
Lion L. J. Lienback is work-
ing rea' hard to have everyth-
ing ready in the Concession
