Clinton, May 2S.-All Clinton is pre-
pairing to put on gala attire for the
great Chautauqua week, which begins
Sunday. The differet committees hav-

INCREASINGLY for the past few weeks and
the prospects are now that Clinton will
have within her doors many and many
of her former citizens and that the
week will be enjoyable as we'll as prof
liable. The home coming feature is
being most prominently agtated al
though the great interest has been
aroused both in the chautauqua pro-
gram as we'll as the great Trade Day
which is to be Saturday the Sth
The sale of tickets has been very
gratifying to the promoters. All indi-
cations point toward large attendance
at all of the entertainments. The lee
ture of EX-Gov. James *. Vurdaman is
expected to draw the largest audience
and almost If not equally as large
audiences are predicted for the other
entertainments.
Through the generosity of the or
phanage trustees, the beautiful Memo
rial Hall has been procured for the
attractions. This hall is large, we'll
ventilated and most admirably suited
for entertainments as are expected
during the week.
The price OF tickets for the entire
week are exceptionally reasonable.
This was made so in the hope that all
Clintonians and others who so desire
would be not only willing but able
to participate in the good things to
be handed out. The double tickets for
the entire series sell for $3.50 while
for $500. Single attraction tickets
