Fair board wants to exhibit army aviators and airships
OUT OF THE PAST
Compiled by Cheryl Jenkins
100 YEARS AGO
July 10, 1919
For the fi rst time in the
history of the community,
the deposits of the Enter-
prise banks passed the mil-
lion dollar mark with the call
of June 30. The total was
$1,027,098.
To protect business men
of Enterprise from being
solicited for money to sup-
port various schemes of
doubtful merit, the Chamber
of Commerce decided that a
committee should be named
to which every cause or fund
should be referred. Business
men will refuse to subscribe
to a paper or scheme which
has not the approval of this
committee.
The suggestion has come
from many quarters that one
or more airships giving exhi-
bitions of real feats of fl ying
would be a great attraction
at the county fair this fall.
The board wants to get some
army aviators and airships,
to show more than one type
of craft, and to give an exhi-
bition of offi cial perfor-
mances. There is no demand
for hair-raising and hazard-
ous performances.

the company who planned to
come and look over the area.
They were particularly inter-
ested in the South Fork.
