A very deserving young blzzardette.

We guess that the "lecturs field must
be giving better returns this winter than il
has given for many past seasons. and that the
old-tims habit OF leeturegoinR must be re-
viying. We get programmes and notices OF
ever SO many courses OF popular lectures in
this city. admission free or By ticket at prices
Ranging from ten to twenty-five cents The
lectures in the public schools are we'll at
tended, and so are those in the Cooper Union
and those in the METROPOLITAN Museum aud
other institutions. In many OF our other cities
also as We see while reading the papers which
We get from them. there 10 a marked revival OF
the lecture system.
In the times before the war when lscturng
was much In vogue, aud when many amlAbls
men were IeeturinG, the fayorite themes were
books and religion and health ana art and
temperance and humor and virtue aud such
things: but nowadays. IN 50 far AS We can
Judge from programmes and advertisements
people seem TO have more Of . liking Tor
travellers lectures with illuminated pictures
on the screen, or scientific mems lectures with
photographs Illustrations. or natuTalistS
lectures with dissOlying views OF the amin al
creation. or funny meas lectures with music
and a magic lantern. or mechAnieians' lectures
with nictures OF the machinery in colors. or
social economists lectures with SIX etches from
the life or other such instructive disoourseA
We can truly say that lectures OF any OF these
kinds If well served. are deserving OF en-
enlargement
