The Ideal Spot on Chautaqua For A Few Days of Whole Summer
 Stay

For those who want quiet and re- fined home for the summer, where pleasure without limit and the very oest of accommodations may be ob- toined at moderate cost, there is no other place like Greenhurst-Chautau- qua which is now under the able di- 1ection of George F. Hurlburt, known far and wide for his capable manage. n1ent of the Sherman House Of Jamestown and the Grand Hotel of New York City.
 Here every pleasure. comfort and accommodation of the most modern inland watering place may be enjoy ed. Every facility for rest and re- cuperation or lively good time is at hand. Just across Lake Chautauqua is Celeron, the Coney Island of Vest ern New York. Three miles above Celeron is located the country club with ;a very attractive golf course, and an hours ride by express steam CT from the Greenhurst landing in Chautaqua, the most noted of all se- mi-educational summer resorts where tie leading lights of literature, music science and religion come together each summer for the mutual benefit Of all. Ten minutes walk from the Greenhurst Hotel, is the Chadokoin Foat Club with every kind of craft from row boat to palatial launch.
 Every imaginable recreation is ayailable-boating, fishing, automobil- ing, golfing, swimming bowling, bil- lizards tennis, archery, croquet. Add to this the beauty of Lake Chautau- qua, the delihtful sylvan surround ings, the splendid service and mod crate cost of living at Greenhurst-on- Chautauqua, there is no other place that offers so many wonderful ,advan- tages at like cost.
 Most summer resorts run to one extreme or the other-they're either too quiet or too boisterous. Green i:urSt is neither one nor the other, but both.
 Address George F. Hurlburt, Grand Hotel. New York City-or Jamestown \. Y., for full particulars as to rates and accommodations. Get this in- formation now and lay your vaca- on plans accordingly.

There is well founded custom that
in making appointments, such as post

recommendation OF the members OF

OF the same political party. The Re-
publican congressman Is under a SINH
