joy. We used to put hair wreaths
and parafined flowers from collins on
our walls. It's as hard for the house
wife to throw these things away as it
was for the man to throw down the
hoe. That's because of the dash
board on our automobile.
People say society is more COM
pick, but 1t isn't Nowadays we light
our houses by one push OF a button.
You women dress fifteen minutes fast
er today than you did twelve years
ago Nowadays you do your hair
more quickly. You put it all on at
once.
Hits Professional Evangelist.
The next evangelism in our coun-
try is going to be national, not local
We are not going to make 1t church
crusade, it will be a Christ crusade
There will be no Episcopal Barnum to
lead them. You never heard of
church quarrel over anything vital;
they never quarrel over a charity con-
stftution in community Churches
have brain storms as well as people.
We haven't had our minds on the
main question, but the time is coming
when we shall. The nearer people get
to the truth the nearer they come to-
gether People get fooled religiously
because they are rattle Drained and
fooled by mysticism of insincerity
There is no name mean enough to
apply to the man who tries to sell
gold bricks from the streets of the
new Jerusalem. I'll tell you am OPP
posed to evangelism for revenue
only.
Be Cheerful.
Blow your bubbles, keep on dream
ing. The finest use of a dying breath
is to blow the bubble of eternal hope
If you think about yourself, think
you're young to be successful. Let
people forget the bad things of life.
The time is coming when you're going
to have clean journalism; the time is
coming when newspaper that reports
a Thaw trial will not be in your
homes. The man who tells ugly stor-
les about his friends has debauched
brain. Dream the sweet, dream faith
Smile into the face of the world, it
will smile back We are coming to
time when well think around the
world
Kellogg Hanes Singers.
The Kellogg Haines Singing Party
is the finest aggregation of musical
talent that has been at the Hamilton
chautauqua. Their programs are
great and everyone appreciates them.
They give the best of everything in
the musical line and give it in a way
that is unequalled. Much of their work
is done in costume which adds to the
program a great deal. The Kellogg
! Haines Singing Party is composed of
Miss Lottie Fahlen, soprano; Miss
Altha Montague, contralto; John Eich-
enberger, tenor; W. A. Goldsberg,
I bass. W. ]. Breach is the monologuist
and pianist with the company It
might be of interest to say that three
OF The auintette are minister's chill
dren. Yesterday afternoon they gave
very fine prelude, and another one
last night. MY Hero" from THE
Chocolate Soldier" 1.-THE Rosary"
and the Melba Waltz song We're sung
by the quartette Miss Montague sang
Sunshine and Rain" The quartette
! also gave the Chinese Love Song"
from THE Candy Shop" This was
given in costume. Mr.. Breach recited
/ two song recitations, Southern Phil
osophy," and "O1d March Wind
The Nest Egg.
| Miss Mary Agnes DOYLE appeared
1 for the second time, giving mono
logue reading of The Nest Egg The
play is by Anne Caldwell and is term
ed by the critics to be a truly great
American rural comedy The play
centers around one central character
| the only really great character in the
! play, Hettie Ganley. In giving this
monologue reading Miss Doyle has
cut out a lot of the insipid dialogue
which is in the play She uses only
the characters absolutely essential to
the support of Hetie Ganley and
working out of the plot. Miss Doyle
again, as yesterday, captivated her
audience Her naturalness of manner
and her wonderful powers of reading
and character portrayal again pleas
ed her audience. She is truly great
in the estimation of every one who
heard her.
MacMurray Leaves.
Professor Arthur MacMurray, who
so acceptably filled the position of
platform manager, left last night for
Emmetsburg, Iowa, where he will &C.
cupy similar position at their chau-
tauqua Professor MacMurray was
the best platform manager Hamilton
has had, and it was with regret that
his friends saw him go. He is an able
man and one who does a great deal
toward helping on the chautauqua to
success.
