Mid West Associated Chautauquas
are operated throughout the length
and breadth of a dozen states, there
being fifty of them in Kansas, alone
this season. However, they are not
called mid Vest chautauquas anC
neither are they named for the mer
who operate them. Each chautauqua
is given the name of the town where
it is located and thus becomes great
advertisement for the community
that supports it.
If you we're taking a trip to Denver
you would not buy a ticket for Col
lyer and then get off and buy another
for Quinter. No, you would buy {
trip ticket, good for every station OF
the line. 1t is just the same witt
the Chautauqua. Season tickets are
much the cheapest and a great dea
less trouble. Buy season tickets, saw
money for yourself and at the sam,
time you will be helping the loca
committee.
