ious work in the way of saving tough
boys. He was followed by W. Robt.

A splendid feature of the Chautauqua
this year is the Seton Indian work.
which is in charge of Miss Ida L.
Specht. A big tent specially for The
little ones is provided and on Mondays
evening class of Indians almost one
hundred strong was organized. Miss
Specht devotes half of the morning
session which convenes at 8
o'clock to telling the children stories Of
the Indians, the work originating from
the writings of Henry Thompson Seton,
the great Indian and bird and nature
writer. The children have been divided
into two tribes and will be instructed
in Indian games and sports and on Sat
urday there will be held field meet at
which the members of the two tribes
will compete in Indian games and
sports. 1t is a great treat for the chill

dams dressed in fantastic garb.
