Iowans Who May Come Back.

There are a lot of people in the
Panhandle who want to go back to
Iowa. writes one man in a letter
to a local Iowa paper. Well, we will
be glad to welcome them back. Some
of them may have to begin over
again, especially if they have traded
their Iowa lands in Texas lands, but
it is never too late to begin in Iowa.

way back home. He said that he had
had enough of it and while he hard
ly knew where to begin over again,
he hoped some day to have another
bit of Iowa land, even if it were only
a forty acre piece. He said he could
at least make a living for himself
and family on even thirty acres of
Iowa soil, which was more than he
had succeeded in doing on a much
larger tract out west At one time,
this man owned, we believe 1870
acres of land in Iowa. But his
Iowa land went up in price and
tempting offers were made to him
and at the same time came tempting
offers of big tracts of cheaper lands
elsewhere. At last he made the ex-
change and he has been sorry ever
since.
We are glad to welcome back all

(hautauGuas.

Iowa is credited with being the
best state in the union for Chautau-
guas. Hundreds of these assem-
blies are neld every summer and
they command the best talent in the
country in the way of speakers, en-
tertainers and musicians. The net
result Of these annual gatherings is
exceedingly helpful. The influence
is educational and education is the
development Of a mans best attri-
butes.
Of course, there is cynical aris-
tocracy in art, literature and music
which looks upon the chautaqua as
something decidedly plebian. There
is likewise a disposition in a GER
tain school of political thought to
look upon Chautauquas politician or
the politician who devOtes his time
to lecturing in Chautauqua circuits
with great disfavOr. These men re-
gard the average Chautauqua audi
ence as something of rabble. And
they regard public lecturing as a
discredible mode of appealing to the
rabble
But, fortunately, these cynics are
unable to froWn down these move
ments. With schools, with books
with newspapers and magazines,
with free mail delivery, with Chau-
tauquas, the gospel Of enlightenment
is going to the farm and the village
with even greater efficiency than it
is to the city dweller.
The men who organize and pro-
mote Chautauquas are doing a splen
did work. Wherever a Chautauqu
is conducted, you will always find a
live, wide awake, hustiing bunch Of
boosters who are spending largely
of their time and means to make the
thing go. These men are the salt
of the earth. They always include
the local ministers and most always
the city officials and the leading busi-
ness men, together with the teachers.
They are the real altruists of the
land. These are the men who are
going to leave the world better be-
cause they lived in it.
Long live the Chautauquas and
the men who boost them! They will
all grow better together with the
passing years.-From the Entertain
ment Review.
