RUBE CARNIVAL AT ROLLER RINK
[Welland Tribune, 6 December 1917]
Many ways from time to time have been devised and much effort expended for the enjoyment of the amusement loving public, but it is a question if anything has driven away the blues more than the natural antics of the little skate rollers and of all fun producers, none have surpassed a Rube Carnival on rollers. It is a scream from start to finish. That the Rube Carnival to be held next Monday night at Dexter’s Roller Rink is to be a success is beyond question-who ever heard of a Rube Carnival that was not a success? And this one, from all indication, promises to outdo itself. It is to be a night for all ages. There will be skating and dancing of every variety, particularly in the dancing lines, the real, old-fashioned dances, where ye old time fun and sociability with an especially arranged orchestra appropriate for this particular occasion will bring back memories of old and cause father to tell of his bygone days.
Much preparation is under way for the decoration of the rink which will change the spacious hall into a scene of country life with milk maids and chore boys galore.
All are invited to attend to chores early, dig up their old smocks, high boots, sunbonnets, and be at home with the crowd.
