.cHAUTAUQuA AND
THE COUNTRY

Elsewhere i'm this paper, will be
found the Chautauqua program
which is to be put ON in our town
in the near future. A mere casual
glance reveals to one the great i'm
portance that attaches to such AN
event in theScommunity. There lis an
excellent array of talent that under
NO other circumstances could be
brought to such towns as we have.
There is mo- Distinguishing feature
to this place to attract world-famed
men and women. 1t is really remark
able that the Chautauqua instatu-
tion should have been conceived for
it has been a great influence in
American Life. In no other country
do the common people get such opp
tunities to hear and mingle with the
great. What might that mean to
the young i'm giving them an inspi-
ration to get away from the ordIi-
nary to the extra or dinary achieve
ments.
The program needs little comment
There is NO one who has not heard
of many of the talented people who
are to come. Those who love music,
shall have their qualification -Four
musical companies of merit are to
appear, Ewing has woderful band
In entertainment a complete variety
is offered A magician, two readers
of different sort and them Burgder-
fer who is i'm a class by himself.
Think of the mirth and good will
to be brought to our people amid
their stern duties. In oratory do
we find the program an acme of
strength af
Such forensic giants as Cousins
the superb and Hobson the versa
tile. No greater orators have ever
graced the American platform.
Hunsbeerger and Rogers are of
the human interest sort who al
ways have some good that's we'll pre-
sented to greet their audiences.
No one can measure the Influence
of all these people on our communal,
Be a community booster and get
every one to attend.

would it conserve the strength of
their horses but would keep in re-

that drives on it should use the
