WANT CROWD
AT KEOSAUQUA
Local People Who are Boosting for
State Park Want Delegation From
Here to Attend Dedication
There Tomorrow.

With Keokuk as an active bidder
for the third state park in Iowa, a
large delegation of men and women
from here is wanted to attend the
dedication of the. second state park
at Keosauqua tomorrow. 1t is planned
by the members of the Civic league
to go and interest as many other
people as possible in attending. 1t
is felt that large attendance there
tomorrow, will convince the officers
of the park commission that Keokuk
is in earnest in getting their park.
Members OF the Civic league, City
Park Commissioner Fred III. Oyerton
and others will leave in the morning
for Keosauqua. 1t was hoped to have
a big autoombile delegation come up
at noon, but the bad weather may
spoil those plans. Effort are being
made to have crowd so anyway on
the train.
The dedication is open to the pub
|lic and it is the wish OF those inter
Iested here in the plan that as large
a crowd as possible attend the keo-
sauuua dedication. The program will
begin with a fox hunt, and will in
clude addresses and formal dedica-
Ition in the afternoon.
