dwslIers OF the state, it promised TO
be very enjoyable evening, especial
ly % the pictures which were used
o. illustrative material were said to
be very fine
The lecture was not interesting;
it had no organization aud Mr. Orr
took two hours to say what would
have been better said in three quar-
tors Of an hour There were count
less and unnecessary repetitions and
the language was not even fairly
good English The audience could
not concentrate on the matter that
was being told, because such ex-
pressions as Il elumb, they see,
there isn't no other" and number
less others equally elegant kept con
stantly distracting the attention
Mr.. Orr doubtless knows a great deal
about the rains in the sout Invest
portion of the state, and is probably
sincere in his desire to let the people
of the state know about them, but
no man should get up before an
audience of any kind, particularly
an audience made up largely of high
school students, unless be can say
what he has 10 say in reasonably
good language, with reasonably at
tractive delivery 1t is exceedingly
unfortunate that such a program
