  • Pana, Illinois, City of Roses, Centennial, 1856-1956, July
    X-ll. -/V Q. 977. 381 2 P191P k """^j^ ^'^=g£-*'-aw „ ILIINOIS HISTORICAL SURVEY S/^ -Z<^ JForcUiart Jtt^t as there is no standard pattern for Centennial celebrations, so there is no form for the production of a special newspaper issue or booklet signalizing the an7iiversary. As the "steering committee" within Pana Centennial Inc. got to work, several months ago, it decided to publish a booklet subsidized by advertising , and to sell copies to benefit the Centennial fund. It was agreed that the Pana Centennial Souvenir Booklet would be devoted to the history of the community, from its beginnings to date, and the staff of the Pana News-Palladium was commissioned to prepare the copy and produce the booklet. The histoiy herein is as nearly accurate and complete as months of research could make it. If there be eriors and omissions, some will be chargeable to the staff and some will have to be laid to failure of solicited sources to provide information. The type will be held for a month after the celebration in order that a second printing can be done quickly if the original printing is sold c^ut. If you are unable to get the number of copies you desire at Centennial time, write immeiUatfly to Panu Centennial Inc., and enclose $1.00 plus tr)C handling charge for each additional booklet desired. If by Aug. 1 there are enough reorders to justify a stcond run, they will be filled, otherioise your money unll be refunded. To Tom (T.J.) Phillips, native of Pana who came to the News-Palla- dium staff in January after his stint in the Navy, goes the credit for most of the historical research and writing the bulk of the copy for the booklet.
