In few weeks. July to be exact, Chau-
tauqua will return to Rockville for the
second season. The Chautauqua Commit
tee is rapidly getting its plans into form
for the opening of the ticket selling CAM
paign They recently met and chose the
following officers and committees; Willis
B. Burdette, Chairman; Frank Higgins,
Honorary Chairman William W. Welsh.
Treasurer; Clifford H, Robertson, Secretary.
These gentlemen are working hard for
the biggest Chautauqua that Rockville has
yet had. Most of the allotment Of tickets
for the coming session have already been
subscribed for, and the remainder are ex-
pected to be taken up before the opening
day. A two-dollar season ticket will ad-
init bearer to each of the thirty-one events
of the weeks program.
Mr.. Walsh gave out some interesting
figures concerning the growth of the Chau-
tauqua movement. The Rockville Chau-
tauqua is one of more than 200 for which
the Chautauqua Association at Swarth-
more. Pa, arranges the program and de-
tails Of operation this season.
The Swarthmore Association has had
most interesting career. 1t was organized
February 1912. by group of gentlemen
of Philadelphia and vicinity. who hoped
that 1t might become leading factor in
popular education. That summer they
onarafad Al Nhau,auouaa T., 1910 .ho,,
operated 1903 Chautauquas in seven States.
In 1914 they will operate more than 200
Chautauquas in the North Atlantic States.
The confidence that the committees have
in Chautauqua is attested by the fact that
of 1903 towns operated last year, 10i signed
contracts for 1914. and the others wished
Chautauqua to return. but lack of local
support made 1t unwise for the Chautau-
qua Association to respond.
In thirty-one towns the Chautauqua is
now being conducted. indoors. For the
summer there will be two circuits, with
fourteen big tents. The Association now
owns fourteen tent equipments, six auto
mobiles for advertising. fourteen pianos,
fourteen living tents fourteen auditorium
tents, fourteen picture outfits. and 10000
chairs.
What is known as "A Circuit" begins at
Wilmington, Delaware, June 4th. goes South
through Maryland, Virginia and North
Carolina, and returns reaching Waynes-
boro, Pa, July 18th. then North in Pennsyl-
vania, reaching Susquehanna August 10th.

The following communication, sent from
Gather burg. this county. appeared in the
Baltimore Sun of Friday of last week.
ut must be gratifying to the Montgomery
county delegation to find The Sun at last
awakened to the danger of the misuse of
their powers by the State Roads Commits
sion. as evidenced by the Prince George S
county incident. and the recent political
appointments which are likely to change
the entire policy Of the commission. When
our delegation. knowing that one-third Of
the State road system adopted by the
commission for this county was not pro-
vided for in the Price bill. and apprehend-
ing inequalities in other counties Of the
State, endeavored to get a specific state
ment from the commission as to just what
roads they intended to complete. their mo-
tives and action were attacked by the com
missions lobby. and unfortunately The
Sun also was misled by their correspond
ents' views.
Our people did not question the good
faith by the present commission. but sim
ply wanted a specific declaration from
them as to the disposition they intended
to make of the So. 900 900 asked for. Had
they obtained this. there would have been
less danger Of diversion Of the funds to
roads for political reasons We see now
in this county large sums being expended
TO surface good stone road, while the
most important gap in the State system.
the Frederick road from Gaithersburg to
Neelsville. with grades Of 20 per cent.
and the route for all through travel from
the East via Washington to the West. is
not yet touched.
There should be a constitutional require
ment that no appropriation Of funds be
made. except for a specific purpose named
in the act and described with reasonable
accuracy; IL for roads. the roads to be
improved should be named, and not such
loose Language as employed in the 10000
900 loan. which gives a body Of men sub
ject TO changing policies and the infrmi-
ties Of passion. prejudice and politics I'M
limited authority in its disposition.
"Of all the foolish acts the Legislature
was guilty Of. the increase in membership
Of the State Roads Commission was prob
ably the crowning one II would have been
much wiser had they reduced 1t TO one
Commissioner. paid him a decent salary
and held him to a strict accountability for
all acts Nearly all the States have aban-
doned the large commissions and are work
ing under a single head, which makes for
economy and efficiency. Who can doubt
but that Mr.. Weller, with a single aim to
work for the interests Of the State as a
whole. would accomplish more than Thomas
Panan, Frank Smith, Walter b. Miller and
j. M. Perry, each playing the game for his
individual interests?
Senator Lee probably feared just some
such action. The Sun now deplores when
he and his friends endeavored to couple
the large grant of 100000 with some
guarantee that il be restricted to the com.
pletion Of specific roads.
Had this been done the State Road,
Commission itself would now stand in 9
stronger position with the people by rea
son Of such frank statement Of its pur
pose. An ounce Of prevention is alwayi
worth pound Of cure.
