than two thousand people crowd |
ed the big chautauqua tent Sun
day to hear the remarkably fine pro-
gram presented Every seat in the
tent, was filled, while the aisles and
all space was crowded with chairs and
many stood outside or sat on the
grass under the shade of the big oak
trees which surround the tent. The
capacity of the interurban cars was
taxed to bring the crowds who came
from Keokuk.
The morning program began at
eleven O'clock. The song service was
led by w. H. Harkrader, accompanied
on the piano by Miss Greer of Car
thage, and on the cornet by Charles
Thompson. A very excellent sermon
was preached By the Rev. Harry B.
Foster of Keokuk, the subject being
1.-THE Communicated Power of God"
The afternoon program, beginning
at two o'clock, opened with a half
hour concert by Schildkret's Hungar-
ian orchestra, which never fails to
please the audience.
Mr.. Adrian Newens then gave the
story of The Sky Pilot. This story.
has been read again and again by plat
form readers but seldom if ever with
the consummate art with which Mr.
Newens gives it. 1t is the only novel
which has been written in which there
Is no love story But there runs
through it love story other than the
sort which is found in novels. 1t is
the love- story which encompasses all
the world, mans love for mankind.
Almost every one has read The Sky
Pilot. and he who has not should read
it Fortunate we're the people who
heard 1t yesterday from the lips of
Mr.. Newens.
The evenings program began at
eight o'clock and was full concert by
ScfiIdkret' s. Hungarian orchestra.
Not the least interesting thing about
the concert was the personality OF the
leader, Mr.. Schildkret. and the funny,
refreshing remarks which he inter
posed between the musical numbers.
He speaks with marked foreign ac-
cent and his remarks are intended to
help the audience enjoy the music as
much as he enjoys presenting 1t, and
he does not fail in carrying out his
intention
Miss Wardan Of Burlington furnish
ed two vocal numbers in addition tc
the orchestra program. She sang
Love You Truly, by Carrie Jacobs
Bond. and Good Night Sweet Girl
Goodnight. by Macy. AS an encore she
