j. M. Hess has rendered his res
ignatiOn as county school superin-
tendent to take effect on June 80.

the Yuma Sun
In the event that the resignation is
accepted and Mr.. Hess retires in
this manner the board of supervisors
will fill the vacancy by appointing

Three members of the State
Constabulary of Pennsylvania were
present at all the sessions, to pre-
serve order, but their services have
not been needed so far. They have
been objects of considerable curios-
ity to the Jersey visitors, who have
heard much of this famous body of
state police. They are uniformed
very much like regular soldiers,
and are a very effective body. The
members present at New Hope have
impressed everyone with their
gentlemanly manner and circum-
spect actions.

this city, and was entertained at the
Brown home between sessions and
over night. Possessing charm
all her own, it did not need her
voice to make her friends, but the
very best testimonial to her ability
was the fact that she was encored
again and again, by an audience
who evidently knew what they were
approaching. She is soprano
singer, and won additional fame
this year as soloist with the Phila-
delphia Symphony Orchestra.
DR.. Paul M. Pearson lectured on
The Joy of Living" and it was
a Joy" to hear him talk. AS Presi-
dent of the Pennsylvania Chautau-
qua Association, he is closer in
touch with the work than any other
one person, probably, and the fact
that he chose such a topic is evil
dence enough that we ought to
give it more than passing consider
alton.
DR.. Pearson advised his hearers tc
cultivate the habit of laughter, as it
would tide them over the rough
places in life, and add to the JOY Of
living. We have so many more
things to be joyful over than we
have to be sorrowful over, that we
ought to appreciate them.
On behalf of the Pennsylvania
Chautauqua Association, DR.. Pear
son presented DR.. J. E. Scott, chair
man of the Coryell's Ferry Chau-
tanqua committee, with fine leath-
er medicine case. He assured the
audience that wherever that case
went in company of its owner there
would go good cheer and help, DR.
Scott replied that he was not sure
about this, but he was certain that
it would be used to carry tickets for
next years Chautauqua.
The evening entertainment was
attended by over a thousand people
with the Brodbeck-Such Company
leading the program. Their success
of the afternoon was repeated.
Reno B. Welbourn, conducted his
Wonders of Science" entertainment
and it was considered by many tC
be worth the price of a season ticket
Just to watch his performances. He
did all kinds of apparently impossible
things with electricity, with sound
waves, and with patented appliances
of his own. He showed a monorail
car, with wings on, and prophesied
that some day we would be riding
in that kind of car rather than the
present two-rail car or airship.
A series of motion pictures of
unusual interest completed the
evenings entertainment.
Thursdays program was largely
overshadowed by the coming of Mr..
Bryan, but it was fully up to the
high standard already established
E. R. Perry led off in the afternoon
with another lecture in the series:
The Place of Every Man and
Woman in Changing Conditions.
Mr.. and Mrs. Dietric entertained
the audience with magic and music
in a manner that brought them

three sides by Italy, Switzerland and
Germany, and the members of it
speak several languages. Their
American home is in Jersey City,
this state. They were much inter-
ested in the historical side of Cory
ellis Ferry, and found much to
please them in both Lambertville
and New Hope, over which places
they were piloted under the tute-
lage of the reception committee.
Frank Dixon spoke in the evening
upon An Outgrown Constitution, .
and, while few thought he was a
bit radical, the great majority voted
him wonder. He is no common
place speaker. Although crippled
in body, his mind is a master one,
and he held the attention of the as
sembIage as though with magnet.
Mr.. Dixon trampled over Repub-
lican ideals, rooted up Democratic
legends, hooked the Bull Moosers,
and stepped on the Socialists, but
all took it in good part, and most of
them acknowledged the truth of his
statements.
The substance of his remarks was
that the constitution of the United
States should be amended to permit
the election of a single Congressional
body, the members of which would
be elected for six years. They could
be reelected indefinitely, or recalled
before their time for neglect of
duty. The initiative and referen-
dunn would also be included.
Mr.. Dixon said the people had
hypnotized themselves into believing
that they govern themselves, where
as they are governed by the Su
preme Court of the United States.
No other body in the world has
such despotic powers, not even in
the most absolute monarchies. To
think that nine men whom the
people can neither select nor reject
can defy the wishes of ninety-fve
millions of people is fundamentally
absurd and unjust.
On Wednesday the threatening
showers kept many away from the
afternoon session, but more than
700 people greeted Mr.. Perry when
he began his address upon Political
Reconstruction The True Function
of Government. " 1t was the third
in the series, and dealt entertaining
ly with the methods the speaker
thought best in order to bring
about the ideals contemplated.
The Brodbeck-Such Concert Com
pany entertained with number
of musical gems, which won several
encores and pleased the audiense
very much. Mr.. Such is an
English violinist of note, and has
received the praise and f1attery of
European courts since he was a
child. Mrs. Such, at the piano,
was the proper person in the pro-
per place and did her work in
manner that no one except her
could have done so well, as accom-
PIANIST for Mr.. Such, and later for
Miss Brodbeck.
Miss Viola Brodbeck was of es-
