CHAUTAUOUA.

The Mississippi Chautauqua Assem-
bly, plans an excellent programme for
its summer gathering next year. 1t
expects to secure the best platform
talent to be had on the continent In
the meantime, the State Secretary, r.
w. Bailey, is organizing as many local
circles as possible.
The Chautauqua circle is designed
to help by encouraging home study the
many who desire fuller knowledge of
literature and science, but are so cir
cumstanced as to be unable to go to
college or university. The course of
study is wisely chosen, and gives its
students broader outlook and more
liberal knowledge. The Secretary, r.
w. Bailey, Hazlehurst, Miss, will be
glad to correspond with any one who
is interested in the matter.
