I did not know until recently that the Plainview Lions Club hosted The Plainview Horse Show in partnership with Jackson Stables in the 1940s. How fun to look through a couple of programs and learn about what once was!

Both programs have Etter Electric Commercial Frigidaire ads in them. This was my grandfather's business. I learned, too, that he was located at 209 West 7th, which would have been caddy-corner from the firehouse. This was a new address to me. I knew he was on Broadway, behind the city auditorium, and finally at their home, where he built a shop.
