man Maddox, was in the city the past
week, as representative of Col. Hamil-

The Marietta Chautauqua Associa-
tion is an institution which should APP
peal to the local pride of every citizen,
and we trust that when the committee
to sell season tickets call on you they
will meet with hearty encouragement,
and that all will support the enter
prise and aid in defraying the expenses
that the very attractive program may
be carried out. The Association lost
about 81 900 last season, and it is hoped
that every one will rally to the help of
the Chautauqua and patronize it. When
the committee comes to see you be
ready to buy season tickets.

ladies of the schools, and others, ex-
anime my designs and prices for sum-
mer costumes before deciding.
