The bridal veu originated IN Bible
times and was worn until all the public
ceremonies were over. IN the Anglo
Saxon wedding ceremony a square piece
Of veil was held over the head OF the

period between the betrothsI and the
wedding, the bride remained with her

WHAT THE HOME PAPERS SAY:

Cedar Rapids Republican,:
The Redpath Chautauqua system is
an outgrowth of the Redpath lyceum
bureau, the increase of business having
made separate organization neces-
sary. The system does for the Chau-
'tauquas what the bureau has done for
the lyceums, systematizes them, cuts
out costly transportation and thus is
able to furnish better talent at lower
rates than would be possible under the
old home managed Chautauquas. Mr..
vawter created this system and its
success is due to his energy and capa-
bility.
The Cedar Rapids office will be the
center of territory which will have
a hundred Chautauquas. By June /
there will be $50 persons on the
weekly pay roll. There will be six
Chautauquas running every day dur
ing the season There will be 100
Chautauquas in Iowa, north Missouri,
Wisconsin, southern Minnesota and
eastern Nebraska, circuit Of six each
week, with no duplication of attrac-
ii. rs, and only one appearance by each
attraction at any Of the Chautauquas

PIGS, PEOPLE AND FENCE POSTS.

The hog that lays lengthwise in
the trough gets one full meal, wastes
enough to feed him for a week, and
leaves lot of hungry ones looking
wishfully at the empty trough. That
is about what the American lumber
hog has done in this country, and we
stand looking wishfully toward the
denuded forest lands while the price
of fence posts and common lumber
forces home the conviction that
the trough is empty. And 1t was a full
trough only few years ago.
DR.. Will, secretary of the American
Forestry Association, impresses upon
those who hear his absorbing Illus
trated lecture on the devastation of
our forests, the consequences of lying
in the trough. He shows why fence
post that cost 10 cents few years
ago is unprocurable for 25 cents now !;
| why our fathers built for $1,000 the
homes we cannot duplicate to-day for
twice the money.
Every person who lives under a
roof, builds or expects to build a
! home, should hear the reason and the
remedy.

Trained Teachers of the Seton

Fun for the Children, Study, Moral
Training-An Innovation for the
BENEFIT of the Vacation Child and
Incidentally the Tired Mother.
To children of six to fourteen, out
side perhaps of the musical attractions
and the motion pictures, the Chautau-
qua has heretofore meant very little.
Believing that the Chautauqua can not
too soon begin to exercise it's educa-
tional, refining and entertaining intiu-
ences, the Redpath System has engaged
a corps of competent young women,
trained in the Seton Indian Work, to
conduct weeks encampment at each
of it's Chautauquas Every child who
attends the ChautauQua may become
a member of one of the two tribes OF
Seton Indians, which will be organized
and have wigwams and tepees on the
Chautauqua grounds or at a convenient
location. To those who know the scope
and character of the Seton Indian plan
of education no explanation is neces,
sary. However, rough outline Of Its
purposes and of its features may be OF
value to many. Fun, education and
exercise combine with the fascination
of playing Indian" to make these
camps wholesome feature Of the
Chautauqua and to leave their lasting
impress for good on the plastic char
acter of the child. Send the children

Cedar Rapids Gazette.

Cedar Rapids Gazettes
Mr.. Keith Vawter, who for the past
six years has been western manager
for the Redpaths Lyceum Bureau Of
Chicago, and who is now manager of
the Redpath Chautauqua system, has
opened offices in this city, and in the
future all of the one hundred or more
Chautauquas controlled by the bureau
will be managed from this city.
The main Office of the Redpath
Chautauqua system is an acquisition
that any city might be proud Of, and
will mean a great deal to Cedar Rap
ids. The bureau has about two hun
bred and fifty men on its pay roll, and
during the Chautauqua season the sal
airy list will foot up more than $780,
600 per week. The Redpath Lyceum
Bureau is one Of the largest in the
country, and the Redpath Chautauqua
system has been Incorporated into a
company by itself in order to handle
the Chautauqua end Of the business to
better advantage. The location of
the offices in Cedar Rapids, which is
the center of what is known as the
"Chautauqua district will serve 10
advertise the city in every town or city
where Chautauqua is held.

THE REDPATH. PLAN.
Something About the New System
Which Has RevOlutionized Chau-
tauqua Methods.

Something About the New System
which Has Revolutionixed Chau-
tauaua Methods.
The Redpath Chautauqua System is
simply the organized application of the
principle Of distribution Of labor ap-
piled to the business Of supplying the
demand for intellectual entertainment.
The same principle has made it posi-
BILE for the farmer to buy better pillow
for $3.50 than his ,forbears could buy
with $25. Organization, purchase of
material in large quantities, informed
and expert direction and conservation
of energy have made production cheap,
scientifically accurate, and useful
to the highest degree. So the COM
plete organization Of the Redpath
Ohautauqua System, its power to
buy talent in the mass, sort, sep
arate and classify it and extend Its
distribution over half the west and all
over the east has given the Redpath
Lyceum Bureau and the Redpath Chau-
tauqua System their opportunity to
purvey chautauqua talent of the most
exclusive class at a cost to it's patrons
ridiculously low when compared to that
assumed by the community that finan-
ces and conducts its own chautauqua
1t is scarce easier but it is plainly much
more in line with the economy of the
age to conduct 100 chautauquas instead
of one. The possibilities of chautau

obliged to refuse further solicitations
for his appearance at college COM
mencements, etc. His entire availa-
Bile time is filled for the current year.
The Des Moines Register and Lead
er says:
ut has been announced in eastern
publications that Dr. Thomas e.
Green will not be available for any
commencement dates this year. DIR.
Green is an Iowan, and formerly was
rector of the Episcopal church at Ce-
dar Rapids. His Iowa friends are
gratified that his popularity is so great
that he must have it announced that
he can make no more lecture dates
DR.. Green's work is alluded to by the
eastern publication referred to, as
unparalleled ,on the American plat
form. He returned April from sew
en- weeks lecturing on the Pacific
coast-gives two weeks to the South
and sails on April 25 for his two
months vacation abroad. Returning
June 81, he begins twelve weeks Of
Chautauqua."
DR.. Green will be in this city to fill
his date with the Chautauqua. He is
