readiness for the start off at 2.So'
People who have never seen ono of
the Redpath system auditorium tents
have a very agreeable surprise In store
for them. The average man or woman
calls TO memory the circus tent with Its
glare and strain on eyes and heat which
seems to focus through one of the old
ia ashioned white canvas covers. These
Chautauqua tents are made of brown
duck and throw a shadow like a roof
and all the disagreeable part of tent
will be absent In fact with side cur
tains down and good breezes driving
through, it will be found the coolest
place in town. Also the tent is water
proof and will furnish perfect protec-
tion during a rain, the weather not In
any way interfering with the pro-
gramme.
The seats are comfortable with backs
and everything possible is furnished
that will contribute to the comfort of
all Birmingham is just beginning to
wake up to the quality and worth of
the Chautauqua and for the last two
days the ticket sale has greatly In
creased Something over half the guar
antee tickets have been sold and calls
are coming in over the phone from peo-
pie wanting tickets.
The tickets are now on sale at
Cable Shelby Burton Piano Co., the
Smith Street Co, Parker Drug Co.,
Loveman, Joseph & Loeb, the Gum
Pharmacy and Florence Hotel Cigar
phone 1876 and tickets will be deliver
ed to your home. You will have to
hurry to get in on the $40 rate, as the
price of tickets will be $3.50 after
the opening day.
1t will pay to get a season ticket
not only for the good it will do a
worthy and needy local charity, the
Anti Society, but because
it will be a personal saving. If one
should attend all the sessions of the
Assembly and pay single admissions it
would cost over $500 All the after
noon would cost $2.35, and all the even
ings $2.65, and yet all can be enjoyed
for an outlay of $500 for a season
ticket
These tickets are transferable only
in owners immediate family. One
child can enter on an adult ticket, not
TWO as some seem to think.
The Boy Scout and Girls Camp fire
work will be one of the most enjoy
able and helpful features of the week.
The Chautauqua is a children's para
disc and they throng it in great num-
bers. No one can estimate the effect on
a boys or girls life of coming in con-
tact with some of the great orators,
lecturers and artists at the most i'm
questionable period of their lives.
A thoroughly competent instructor
in those lines of work for boys and
girls will be in attendance the whole
week and will train the boys and girls
in their respective lines. AT the close of
Chautauqua he will give an exhibition
on the platform of the work he has
been doing and viii demonstrate it's
value and usefulness to fathers and
mothers and the public.
Perhaps the real inner circle of
Chautauqua lovers and supporters will
be most interested of all other things in
the morning hour lectures where the
really literary and intellectual will
find food for their souls. DR.. VIM. A.
Colledge is our best morning hour man
and is not only known and loved by
thousands of Chautauqua goers in this
country, but is known as literary man
In Europe as well. lie is Fellow of
Royal Geographical Society of London,
was with Stanley in Africa, and is a
man of wide experience and culture.
Hia lectures and recitals on the Scot
tish poets is always popular and in
many Of our Chautauqua cities he has
been voted the very best number on
the programme.
Study the programme and see if you
eyAr heard of so much big talent Of
fersd at such ridiculously low prices
bTlore You can't afford to miss it.
Get busy now and get those tickets.
