TIE LEON CHAUTAUQUA.
Opens Next Sunday with the Finest
Program Yet Offered. Will be
a Whole Week of Pleasure.

Sunday for a seven day session.
The Chautauqua management have
provided program for this year
which is by far the best they have
ever given us, and there is not a
poor day on the entire program.
Thaviu's great band, which made
such a hit last year will be back
again and with them will be six Gel
ebrated grand opera singers who will
appear in costume. Then there will
be the great Russian Balaika Or
chestra, which is one of the finest
musical attractions in the country.
The Maurer sisters Orchestra, the
Music Makers Quartet, The Artists
Company, the Boston Lyrics and the
College Girls, complete the musical
numbers. Bishop VIM. A. Quayle,
Rev. Chas. H. Fitzwilliam, Hon. w.
l. Nolan, DR.. Lincoln Writ, Hon Mel
son S. Darling, Senator VIM. S. Ken
yon and Mrs. A. c. Zehner, are the
speakers, and Rosani, the great jug
gler will add to the amusement
features. The superintendent will
be J. Stuart Morrison and John P.
Martin is the morning hour lecturer.
The program for the. week en-
braces the children's play hour at,
800 a. M, the morning lecture az
1000 O'Clock. The music. program
of the afternoon commences at l2:30,
the afternoon lecture at 500 o'clock.
In the evening the program COM
menccs at 1880 o'clock, and the ev-
ening lecture at S:15.
No one within reach of the Leon
Chautauqua should fail to attend
every session. The program consists
of the very best in music and speak
ing, embracing wide range of sub
jects. The Chautauqua is moral
uplift for the community. We all
know how we have enjoyed the
Chautauqua in the years gone by,
and this year we are promised the
best program we have ever had, and
the price for the entire week is only
$500 for season ticket, which is
good for use by any member of your
family.
Parties who pledged tickets dur
ing the Chautauqua last year should
secure them from treasurer E. G.
Monroe at the Exchange National
bank. Any parties who did not
sign for tickets last year can secure
them at any time at The Reporter
office.
Don't wait until the Chautauqua
opens to buy your ticket. The time
to buy is right now and then you
will enjoy it all the more for your
ticket will be paid for, and if sub
scribers secure their tickets in ad-
vance it will greatly lessen the work
of the committee who have world
of work to do and do not receive any
pay for their services, so help them
out by buying your ticket early
Osceola will not have any Chautau-
qua this year as they failed to sign
for the required number of tickets.
We don't want to see Leon give up
the Chautauqua and the only way
we can continue to enjoy it is for
all who signed for tickets to step
up and take them.
