The Ward County independent. [volume] (Minot, Ward County, N.D.) 1902-1965, 1913-07-03
CONTINUES FOR EIGHT full DAYS
ATTRACTIONS Of THE BEST
AFTERNOON AND EVENING

there is settled belief that public re-
marks of business men, editorial ex-
preston, and even the pulpit, are in
fluenced by the business end of the
concern. True or false, this lessons
the influence of these forces. And the
we'll known freedom from restraint
of those who appear on the Chautau-
qua platform makes their influence
far reaching.
This is a workaday world and most
people do not get the most out of
life. The Chautauqua furnishes the
opportunity to turn aside from the
routine for few days during the
warmest month. In the variety on the
program each hearer finds something
that amuses and instructs. So, at its
close, those who have been wise and
fortunate enough to enjoy it, return
to their duties, stronger for the help
full vacation it has given them.
The Ward County independent. [volume] (Minot, Ward County, N.D.) 1902-1965, 1913-07-03

What purpose does the Chautauqua
serve that has caused it to become a
popular institution in our national
life? The best answer to this ques-
ton is that there is desire in the
minds and hearts of most people for
better things. 1t is therefore worth
while to spend time and money to
hear the messages brought by the var
ious speakers. Frequently questions
of deep current interest are discussed
and the public conscience awakened
and thus public opinion formed.
The strongest feature of Chautau-
qua work is the freedom of it's plat
form. No one blue pencils what the
speakers intend to say. AS they are
amenable only to the audience which
hears them, they are not likely to in
suit its intelligence or love of truth by
saying things in such way that Of
Tense will be taken. In these days

BE ON TIME AT CHAUTAUQUA.

The management announces that
the unfortunate custom, so prevalent
in Minot, of beginning entertainments
late, will be absolutely disregarded
at the Chautauqua. Unless the trains
are late, so that the entertainers are
delayed in arriving, the performances
will begin promptly at the hour set.
Better remember this and not lose
any of the program. Afternoon en-
tertainments begin at 2:30 when there
is musical prelude and at 300 when
there is not, and evening entertain
ments at $3.50 when there is a prelude
and at 900 when there is not. The
condensed programs give all details
of these arrangements, and have been
widely distributed. Anyone who has
not obtained one may do so by apply
ing to the Chautauqua management
in person or by letter.

Congressman James E. Watson Of
Indiana, who appears in this years
Chautauqua on July 10, is said by no
less man than "Uncle Joe" Cannon
to be the most eloquent speaker who
has sat in the halls of Congress for
the last thirty years. He is one Of the
recognized leaders on the Republican
side of the House, and combines ripe
scholarship, picturesque imagination,
forcible delivery, imposing stage pres
ence and absolute sincerity, and holds
his audience as with spell. Governor
Hanley, Of Indiana, said that he had
made it a rule to endorse or recon-
mend no public speaker, but had such
admiration for Mr.. Watson's ability
that he felt justified in breaking the
rule for once. w. ]. Bryan admits
that Watson is better speaker than
himself.

TROUPE Of Fifteen WOODLAND
PLAYERS TO Be ONE OF
THE UNIQUE FEATURES

It is rare indeed that any audience
between the Twin Cities and Spokane
has an opportunity Of hearing troupe
of actors like the Catha Woodland
Players, who appear in Minot at the
Chautauqua on July 10 and II. This
company is composed of fifteen peo-
pie, all trained artists, and number
of them teachers in the leading dram
attic schools of the country. In the two
years that they have been playing
Chautauquas they have always prov
ed the greatest drawing card of the
program, and their audiences the sec
ond night are invariably larger than
the first. They will give two after
noon programs of mixed dramatic

ed States. The attractions are con-
sidered better than last year, and cost
the management more money. No
doubt they will be we'll patronized by
the people of Minot and vicinity.
There are two entertainments each
day, beginning at 2:30 and $3.50, US
ually in two parts, musical prelude
and lecture, except on the occas-
ions where the musicians occupy the
stage for the entire program. Season
tickets are $500, and transferable,
and the purchase of one makes the
buyer member Of the Chautauqua
Association and entitled to vote for
directors at the annual meeting.

It is an Old and difficult question
whether it is the greater art to i'm
personate character on the stage, by
costume, makeup and delivery, or to
convey the impression without the aid
of dress or grease paint by the mere
force of the speakers personality and
expression. The illusion in the first
case is usually more complete, but in
the second case it is infinitely harder
to produce. 1t will be interesting to
study this question from the life in
this years Chautauqua. Mr.. Bowman
and Mr.. Miles, impersonators Of these
two different kinds, appear on July IL
and July Is. Mr.. Bowman uses the
first method; Mr.. Miles the second.
Both stand the highest in their lines,
and the comparison will be well worth
making.

1t is seldom indeed that speaker at
a Chautauqua such as Minot is en-
gagged for second season, but so fav-
orable was the impression made last
winter by the lecture in the Y. NJ. C.
A. course by Mr.. Miles, that the Chau-
tauqua Association determined to Sc
cure him for a return engagement
this summer, and he will appear on
the evening of July Is, fittingly clos
ing the admirable series of enter
tainments given this year. AS SYM
pathetic impersonator and commenta-
tor Mr. Miles has no superior. He
gives his lectures without the aid of
costume, but by his words, gestures
and facial expression makes his hear
ers feel the presence Of the person
described. The Chautauqua manage
ment is to be congratulated on secur-
ing this number. ~

The Chautauqua opens this year
July 8, in the Armory, and lasts
through July Is. One of the best fea-
lures ever seen on any Chautauqua
platform, which you should not miss,
is the troupe of Woodland Players,
consisting Of fifteen persons, carrying
their own music with them, and pre-
senting, besides high class dramatic
recitals, two of Shakespeare's come
dies in a delightful way. All the
company are artists of high merit.
There are many excellent features on
the program this year, some of which
have been heard as far as Panama
and London, besides all over the Unit

years of the famous old company
known as the "Bostonians," when that
organization was at its prime. She
was taught to play the piano before
she was six years old, and at sixteen
was touring the country as soprano
soloist with successful concert COM
pany. Miss Richeson is an accom-
plished violinist, who has studied un-
der some Of the most famous masters.
Miss Agar is very versatile, bsine :
reader and crayon artist Of ability,
but her most pronounced success Is in
the singing Of the tender old folk
songs, in (which she has captivatsd
audiences from sea to sea.

Don't miss the opening number Of
this years Minot Chautauqua, Tues
day afternoon, July 8, the famous
Irish orator, DR.. Gabriel R. Mcclure.
Subtle humor and dramatic power
characterize this remarkable speaker.
He is physical giant, warm-blood-
ed and enthusiastic Irishman, vigorous
in thought, strong in convictions,
fearless in presenting his message.
His lectures with An Irishman
Through the sJungles Of Africa" and
ireland and the Irish" have held
audiences spellbound wherever he has
appeared.

You can throw all the rice you
please at the bride and groom, but
that don't make married life pud-
ding. If you want to make your mar
ried life a pudding, tickle your wife
by buying one of those double tickets
to the Minot Chautauqua for $500,
admitting two persons to every enter
tainment. You save dollar over the
price of two single season tickets.
They're transferable, too.

Last years Chautauqua opened
under very favorable auspices with a
musical organization known as The
University Girls, who, by their simple,
unaffected manner and accurate play
ing made friends of the audience from
the first. It is not the policy Of the
management, except under extraordi-
nary circumstances, to reengage an
attraction for two years in succession,
but they have secured this year sim
liar troupe to open the Chautauqua,
The Seminary Girls, who come even
more highly recommended. Miss Dam

readings, and two evening programs
of Shakespeare, staging "a Midsum-
mer Nights Dream" and "As You
Like It," The Chautauqua manage
ment hesitated for some time before
engaging this company, because Of
the price they command, which is by
far the highest paid for any attrac-
ton thus far, but after thoroughly
investigating the matter and finding
what the troupe had accomplished
where they had previously appeared,
determined to give Minot the best
that could be had, and closed arrange
ments, believing that this city would
appreciate and support a feature Of
this class.

ROBERT O. BOWMAN.

One of the most attractive Of the
Minot Chautauqua entertainments this
year will be Robert 0. Bowman, who
gives dramatic character portrayals
in costume. He will appear on July
~. Everything from Shylock to Mr..
Dooley comes within Mr.. Bowman's
repertoire. Whether he is the Hoosier
farmer, Prof. Dunweary, or the well
known travelling man, his portrayals
are rendered with the naturalness,
skill and dramatic ability that place
him in the front rank Of artists. The
audience forgets the speaker, forgets
the Chautauqua, forgets even its own
troubles, and lives with the character
that for the time being dominates the
stage.

The price of separate admissions to
the Chautauqua numbers will vary
from fifty to seventy-five cents for adj
ults, according to the entertainment.
They will be twenty-five cents for
children in all cases. That will mean

five cents for adults who attend all
