"The programme is self-eSplanatory'
The aim of the originators of the assem-
bIy is to have a educational assembly dt
home, aud run by home tateh. why
be compelled to go three or four nun
dred miles to Chatauqua or Mt. Lake
Park, when we have beautiful site aud
abundance of talent at our very doors.
Think of the number of schools OF high
grade within two hours ride OF brandy
wine Summit. The professional talent
in connection with these schools, saying
nothing of tue unused amateur scientists
aud scholars, Is amply sufficient to run
an assembly as large as Chatauqua Itself.
There are also in this territory thousands
who need the stimulus aud inspiration OF
such an assembly, who can not afford the
time and cost of trip to these distant
assemblies. Then why not have an as
sembly of our own at home? Ii the move
ment meets with your approval VIII you
aid us? Many of your readers, who are
accessible to the camp, will never hear
of tins assembly unless they read it in
your columns The committee in charge
of the arrangement is composed of Revs.
