may want to use it. At the Chautau-
qua Friday night, Judge Gober, Presi-
dent of the Chautauqua Association,
presented the matter to the audience

terferred with the complete and COM
Portable success of the Chautauqua,
and urged upon the people to subscribe
| and build an auditorium for the town.
Prof. 5. V. Sanford had already secured
large number of subscriptions, of $50
per share. which he read out to the
public. He viii further solicit SUBJ
scriptions, and it is believed, from the
! present encouraging outlook, that Ma
rietta will have large auditorium by
the time the next Chautauqua is held
Let everybody help, and the much
needed building willmateralize. Where
there is will there is way, There is
- 800 subscribed already.
Don't run down the town where you
have been in business all your life and
made your home. The times may seem
dull once in while, but all that can be
done to enliven things is to start on
some new enterprise and get new en-
ergy at work. We need this new en-
ergy every year to make US grow and
prosper, We all ought to feel that new
blood is being injected and that what
little we can do in any line ought to he
done in the spirit that will be for our
| Recommendations Times.
Carrollton is building two new brick
hotels.-Carrollton Times. Evidently

nice grove where families with children
could find retreat such as they want,
and such as the Whitlock House used
to be, and which was always crowded
summer and winter?
