BOURBON BOOSTERS TO TAKE
TRIP AUGUST 80.


of Paris merchants, who desire to see
trade kept at home, and to encour,
age local industries, have arranged
for Booster Day" trip through
the county, to be given on Wednes-
day, August 80. Plans are being
rapidly perfected for the trip, which
promises to be one of the best the
merchants have put through. Sec
rotary Harold Harris and President
M. Peale Collier, of the Paris Com
mercial Club, have completed ar
rangements with the ladies of Mil
lersburg to furnish the Booster Din
ner, which will be given in that city
at noon on the day of the trip.
Last year about $50 business men
of Paris and their wives and friends
participated in the trip, which was
pronounced a great success. 1t is
hoped that twice that number will
make the trip this year. The timer
airy has not yet been fully worked
out, but will take up but one day.
The plan of organization is about
the same as that used last year.
Members of the finance committee
will call on the merchants and bus
, mess interests and a fee of $500 will
be collected from those merchants
desiring to take part in the trip.
The routine and publicity commits
tee will have charge of the arrange
ments for entertainment, schedule
of trip and advertising. The trans
portation committee will be charged
with the duty of signing up suffici
ent number of automobiles to carry
F, the crowd. The following commit
tees have been appointed to perfect
plants and arrangements for the
trip:
| Finance-Charles Greene, chair
man; Barnett Winters, ]. ]. Veatch,
Clyde Huffman; Routing and Pub
| licity-Harold F. Harris, chairman;
M. E. Guttman, M. Peale Collier, 1.
l.. Glass, Lawrence Price; TranspOr-
tation-Wm. o Hinton and repres-
entatives of all the Paris garages;
Treasurer Winters; Grand
| NAL laws
The arrangements committee has
made a contract with the Boys Band
of the Odd Fellows Home, at Lex
ington, to furnish music for the oc-
casion. Every merchant in Paris is
urged to get into the spirit of the
occasion and help to send a live
band of live wire to meet our coun-
| try people. The finance committee
will begin calling on the merchants
tomorrow.
The Finance Committee of the
Booster Trip, Charles Greene, chair
man, announces that each firm which
contributes $500, will be given one
ticket to the Booster dinner to be
served at noon, August 80, in Mil
| lersburg. Secretary Harris is in
communication with several promi-
nent speakers, and at least one will
be secured to deliver the noon adj
dress at Millersburg.
This Booster trip is for the pur-
pose of getting out into the county
and meeting the people who make
Paris possible. 1t is essential that
friendly relations be renewed, and
new acquaintance be established.
Let's lay aside all worries for one
day, put on a broad smile aud ride
out and say ''howdy" to every man,
woman and child in Bourbon county.
AS a rule, people trade with their
friends, and perhaps you will be the
very man who will be benefited by
this trip. The Commercial Club
would appreciate any suggestions in
regard to the Booster Trip. Oficials
of the Club are using every effort to
assure the success of this trip.
