The trip the Rottineau boost
er for the county fair made over
the county last week was a big
factor in bringing in the inn
rnense crowd. 8
People were here from all
over the county and many said
II was the booster trip that
brought them. One prominent
citizen Of Lansford remarked.
Il don't believe there would
have been ten people from
Lansford if you folks had not
visited 10; now I don't believe
that there are more than that
many left over there. This
seemed to be the spirit that
prevailed.
The directors of the fair have
asked The Courant to thank
the Bottineau boosters for
making the swing around the
circle. It was the greatest
advertising stunt ever pulled
off in this county and the fair
officers appreciated the effort.
