II would seem. from present indi-
cations that the clarksburg Chan
iauqua IS destined to be the most inn
portant event In tho history Of the
county The people are manIfesting
an intense interest in the afralr ana

the auditorium on the old fair
grounds viii be taxed to It's utmost
to accommodate the multitude which
viii DO there. Electric lights are
now being installed and that coupled
with the natural beauty OF the place,
VIII make II an extremely desirable
place to spend an afternoon and
evening.
It was intention in the beeln-
ming to make the Sunday programs
free to the public, bnt the manage
ment became convinced that talent
which would admit OF that wouId
not be strong enough to attract the
better class of people, and 1t was
hnally decided to put In stronger

and this by the way, it the very
strongest argument for their pur-
chase. The price has been made so
very low that everybody can afford

program but what has a national
reputation, and none would dare 20

should bring together large num-
Der Of Bible students and Christian
workers. This work will be in
charge of men whose mental and
moral endowments are recognized
throughout the State. A cordial In
Vitatiou is extended to all persons
Interested to help make this one Of
the most helpful and Instructive
parts Of the chsStauqua program.
