Be Careful.

Richmond and Madison county people
who have been taking in the Trots al
Lexington, should bear in mind that
every dollar spent in that city for
merchandise that could have been
procured here, is thrust in the side
of the business interests of Richmond,
Richmond is now at the top of all fourth
class towns in the state, in business
way. and leads many of the third class
cities by big margin, but the advent
of the auto and the placing of more
trains in service should not be the cause
of money being spent in Lexington

Lecture Course.

The many citizens of Richmond who
are interested in making the town all that
any town OF its size canbe inits education
al and cultural opportunities will be in
terested to know OF the engagement OF a
| frst-class course of musical and literary
evenings in connection with the State
Normal School. The course begins
Nov. 10. and runs till April. Lecturers
| from abroad at the Normal, even though
of national reputation, have not always
met with the expected welcome from
the townspeopie, largely no doubt be-
cause there was no regular course an
nounced, and the public was not duly
informed, But the forces which make
for more frequent enjoyment and a
higher appreciation of the esthetic and
intellectual side of life realize that they
have in the Normal School a convenient
rallying center, if need be. Knowing
that good lecture course is an essen
tial to town which makes any preten-
sions to cultural the Woman's Club and
other organizations making for social
uplift are heartily cooperating with the
Normal School in giving publicity to the
course, and securing loyal support Of
il by the citizens President Crabbe' S
long experience with Chautauqua man
agement has given him an unusual &C
quaintance with the field OF available
talent. The performance of the Coburn
Players here in July was convincing
evidence that what is offered the public
under the auspices of the Normal School
will be the equal of the best that can
be had anywhere. The course as ar
ranged for this year comprises three OF
the best concert companies in America,
with musicians of worldwide reputa-
tion, an evening of dramatic readings,
an art evening, lecture from ex-Gov-
Hoch, of Kansas and various other fea-
lures. No attempt is being made 10
clear money, but only to cover the ex-
pense of the course. So the price will
be put at figure which represents the
actual cost. The aim is not only 10
furnish an opportunity for esthetic de-
velopment to the student body, but also
to bring about closer union between
the Normal School and the public Of
Richmond in the effort for increasing
the cultural advantages for the entire
| community
