CLOSES With
BLARE OF MUSIC
Royal Italian Band the Last
Chautauqua Number
DRAWS CROWD OF
OVER TWO THOUSAND
Amusement Week the Biggest and
Best Yet, and Still Better is
Promised for Next Year

III popular idSoi uheii ~ hoo W.
come permanency was the report
of the Enterprise last week and
this has been amply borne out by
the action of the people before the
close of our big amusement week.
In past years the committee las
found it some trouble to place the
number of season tickets required
by the management before con-
tract for the next year could be
entered into, but there was a re-
markable change this year, not
withstanding the fact that it was
necessary to contract for $50 more
Sc eison tickets than heretofore.
Under a new agreement between
the board of control and Chautau-
qua system the price of season
tickets for 1913 was reduced to 50,
but to secure this concession it
was necessary to "sign up for $50
tickets in place of 600 as formerly.
This change was explained by
the board of control on Friday
evening, and it was thought that
some hard rustling would be nes-
essary to secure the increased
number, but the board was pleas
antly surprised at the prompt res
ponse and inside of half an hour
was able to announce that pledges
had been received for over 500
tickets.
This in itselfis ample proof that
the Chautauqua Is steadily gain
ing in popularity and that our
community realizes that such en-
tertainment as it affords are
bound to stimulate moral and in
tellectual progress.
The most inspiring lecture Of
the entire big week was that of
Chancellor Bradford. The distin-
guished Oklahoma divine pointed
ont the beauties of clean citizen
ship and made plea for restricted
immigration. He has some adj
miration for the Irish immigrant
on account of his wit and his hon.
esty of purpose, but would fight
that class of immigrants who
flock to the cities and who be-
come naturalized for the sole
purpose of having vote to sell
to the man who will give them
the largest Schooner of beer. He
pointed out in most forcible
manner the dsngers that will rum
the country unless immigration
is restricted.
Sibyl Sammis MacDermid, the
operate soprano and her husband
James MacDermid, the composer
of many of the popular songs of
the day, furnished the musical
numbers at both the afternoon
and evening sessions on Friday
and were greeted with the hearty
appreciation which they deserved.
The widely heralded woman lee
turer, Belle Kearney, proved
somewhat of disappointment,
probably because Of the fact that
the subject of her address was too
sectional in character to interest
her hearers. Mrs. Kearney is a
typical Southern woman and
from the tone of her talk every
thing that is good is to be found
only in Dixieland.
On Friday evening the Raweis
company, consisting of father,
mother and daughter, natives OF
New Zealand, gave a novel and
graphic portrayal in music, song
and story of life in the South Sea
islands from cannibalism-t to cul-
ture, accompanied by panoramic
display of the wonderful island
scenery.

ELLA FLAGG YOUNG ON PHYSICAL
TRAINING

Mrs. Ella Flagg Young, superinten-
dent of the Chicago schools, made a
statement the other day in regards to
physical training of the young in
which she expresses views on the sub
ject very similar to those voiced by
the Sheaf last week. Mrs. Young
says:
II have read with interest, what Ma
yor Harrison and Chief of Police Nc
Weeny have said with reference to
early physical training as an influence
for good in the later life of boy.
believe that best authorities on the
subject hold similar views. am GER
tain that I, myself agree with the
statement that a healthy body is the
first necessity in the maintenance of
healthy mind, and that body whose
attention is held by interesting athlet-
ic sports during the critical period of
adolescence is more likely to turn out
a normal desirable citizen than one
whose early athletic education is neg
lected.
And in this connection, I will say
that present facilities in the public
schools for athletic instruction do not
impress me as adequate
Naturally if we are to improve ra-
pidly in physical culture, we have
some definite aim, and 1 have no hest,
fancy in saying that physical instruc-
ton in the schools, to become effective
must follow the lines of athletics, that
make most for manliness, self-reli-
ance, courage and bodily and mental
quickness."

THOMAS GREEN is DEAD

Thomas Green, chief engineer of the
500 line, died at the Plaza hotel, Min
neapolis, yesterday noon. His death
will cast gloom over business cir
cles in Warren, where he was a IA
vorite during the early days of the
500 line in this territory. He spent
considerable of his time here then,
and he will be remembered for his
cheerfulness, cordially and the good
fellowship, which always was a part
ner to his surroundings. The memory
OF the deceased will linger in Warren

On Saving.

In times past we have sort of lifted
ourself up scornfully and hooted at
Mr.. Carnegie and Mr.. Rockefeller
when they advised us to save our
money. We even refused to be i'm
pressed by the statement that "A PEN
ny saved is penny earned and a pen
ny spent is penny burned"
But we have had a change of heart.
We have done some simple figuring
and have convinced ourself that we
ought to have gone to saving years
ago.
Many of us think we have to start
saving with dollar, or more. AS q
matter of fact, we could start with q
penny. One little red penny, Outlines
squandered for chewing gum or even
spent in order to obtain the latest
statements of the eminent baseball
lists, pugilists and other winter orna,
ments of the stage in the Double K
edition Of this newspaper-that little
red penny, If invested at Eve per cent.
compound interest, would amount in
100 years to $1.37.
Leaving this in the bank, at tho end
Of that century, and restraining tho
natural impulse to take the dollar
thirty-seven and 60 out and give It
70 checkroom boys, porters and chauf-
feurs- leaving 1t right out at inter-
est for another 100 years, compound
Ing 1t at five per cent. We would
have $172,93.
BY that time the habit Of saving
would have fastened itself upon US,
and It would not be such a wrench
70 allow the principal and accrued In
terest to 60 on working for us, % at
the end Of 1000 years that little red
penny would have grown to tho sum
pf fifteen quadrillion, four hundred
and sixty-three quadrillions Of dollars.
We wish some one had put peuny
out at interest for us In the year T.

ACADEMY

Playgoers promise to give Mrs
wiggs Of the Cabbage Patch an ell
thusiastic reception upon her return to
the Academy of Music tomorrow night,
where she will be for week. appear
ing in matinees Tuesday, Thursday and
saturday.
Mrs. Wigs. ever since she left the
cabbage patch in Louisville. has made
thousands of friends, and the droll
philosophy of this feminine optjmist has
carried around the world. Book plays
are not as a rule lcng-lived. but Mrs.
Wiggs Of the Cabbage Patch" already
ID an American humorous classic.
The comedy interest centers in the
mirth-provoking episode of MIR. Stubbins
and his matrimonial designs upon lit
tie Mis- Hazy, the meek and shiftless
neighbor of Mrs. Wigs. Both charac-
ters are Intensely humorous and alto
gether original. The impersonation of
Mis- Hazy has proven perfectly fitting
yis-a-viz to that of Hiram Stubbins.
Those two characters are well-springs
of laughter and are secondary, of course,
only to that of mrs. Wigs Of the Cab
bage Patch" herself, whose homely phil
osophy and cheerful temperament. add
ed to her genius and practical plety,
prove an Inspiration. and an object les
sen to all.
The play has taken a prominent place
IN the rank Of domestic comedies.
