CHAUTAUQUA.

DR.. Thomas E. Green was heard Sunday
afternoon. The attendance was large
and the address was richly appreciated
His subject was THE Left Handed
Man." He said: "My text is: Among
this multitude were 700 men, left handed
every one of whom could throw stone
at hair breadth and not miss This
was written during troublous times.
There was no king over Israel, and each
man did what seemed right in his own
eyes.
"Out ofzany one chapter in the Bible
we can find moral law, dynamic force
which still holds sway today. Men are
apt to forget that an underlying principle
runs through all time States are not
great except the men that make them
are great; men are not great unless they
do and dare.
"These 700 left handed men we're
among the rebellious Benz antics There
is an idea that piety and stupidity are
synonymous; that goodness means dull
ness. As we look at these men they teach
us that they who are fervent in secret are
serving the Lord. If the Church of God
should take up the Christian work with
as much zeal and earnestness as the po-
litical parties today are displaying along
partisan lines America would soon be
saved.
"This left, handedness of the men we
are talking about today was detormity.
Yet they we're the crack corps of the
regiment. they brought strength out of
weakness victory out of defeat.
LET us learn some lessons from them.
In the first place, you will find that God
has diversity in unity in all his creatures
God makes no two human lives like.
Each man has his mission, his capability
1t is foolish to expect all men to WORK
alike. Here's man with a mission, but
because he does not think or work as you
do, should we throw him aside? No, he
is left handed, but wait until he gels his
sling shot in place Don't expec, unito'-
nifty in Christian work"
The sacred concert at night was the
best Of its kind given this year and had
the smallest attendance of any evening
performance so far held.
Woodmen's day closed in blaze OF
glory Saturday night when Head Consul
F. A. Falkenburg hurled defiance at his
enemies and appealed to shouting Wood
men to stand by their leaders. The
musical program was fine, including the
solo artists of the Chautauqua. The
Woodmen enj?yed it and attested their
in hearty applause There
were fully 1000 of them, besides citizens
Of Boulder. and the day can easily be
voted great success Mr. Falkenburg
stated that this is the only place for
special days for organizations of this
kind and says he wants day reserved
for the Woodmen next year, when we
will bring 10000 people here
DR., Wilson, the genial superintendent,
spoke some very sensible words last
night. He praised the management and
called on those who had been on the
grounds as campers to recall any unkind
words they may have spoken and to
scatter some sunlight" in the few days
'emaining. He set the example by pro
:eeding to do that very thing himself, the
patient Professor Brooks and his
orchestra and the singers OF songs com
ng in for special. but deserved. praise.
Homer r. Wilson is great Chautauqua
He rarely forgets to
Jay the right thing at the right time.
