From the. programmes received in Biz
mingham yesterday of the Chautauaua to
be held at East End park June 2-S In
elusive. under the auspices of the Jeffer-
son County Anti-Tuberculosis association,
1T is shown that the event will be one
of great merit. Artists and organizations
Of worldwide reputation have been en-
gagged. The Chautauqua will be staged
by the Redpath Chautauqua bureau,
which now has southern headquarters in
this city
certain percentage of the receipts will
be for the benefit of the Tuberculosis
association, but the association is not
making an appeal to the public under any
plea of charity The programmes will
include strictly high class Chautauqua
series of performances with the best plat
| form lecturers, singers. players and en-
tertainers, and it is said will be worth
| the money aside from the fact that all
who attend will indirectly be helping the
| Anti-Tuberculosis association. The Anti
| tuberculosis association has purchased
| a certain number of season tickets at re-
! duced rates and are selling these in
turn at reduced rates, so that all who
buy season tickets indirectly are aiding
| the associa ton.
| Among the features of the weeks pro-
gramme are the Ben Greet Shakespearian
players, the Redpath Grand Opera COM
pany, the well known Bohumir Kryl band,
