entertainers have largely gone into
temporary retirement, awaiting the call

The chautauquas have this year

Just at noon the Illinois Central
station teens with life. Five trains
come in at this time daily and a cos
mopolitan crowd may be found gath
cred. Here are old and young, big
and little, craning and stretching their
necks to get the first glimpse of the
incoming train Here is the wander
ing Hebrew, with a mania for Dig
bundles; the old man with the piping
voice; the fidgety old lady with the
spectacles and umbrella; the pretty
eipl with the dark eyes, the business
woman with the commanding nose
and icy stare; the outdoor girl with
the short skirt, tan shoes and the
naughty expression; the business col
lege boys, who carry the world IN
their hip pocket; the, bashful, retiring
school girl with the dark hair; the
sharp featured man with an enormous
moustache; the weary looking moth
er with a couple of children, who are
always asking a thousand different
questions on thousand different sub
iects: the retired farmer with full
beard and jerky step; the OLD MAID
