PETER Mcqueen
Thrills His Audience With Lecture on
the European War.

One Of the finest attractions which
has been offered to Augusta peeps
this winter in the entertainment line
was the illustrated lecture given Friday
evening by the noted war correspondent,
Peter MacQueen. who represented Les
lies Weekly in the Anglo French forces
of the Allies, and who came to Augusta
under the auspices Of the Green street
Methodist church. Mr.. MacQueen spoke
in the church ediflce and was greeted
by a crowded house. His lecture on
the European War proved a treat and
was enlivened by a display OF 200 co..
ored views in which were shown the
horrors Of war and the desolation fol-
lowing the greatest war in history.
Mr.. MacQueen. who has before this
occasion visited Augusta, is a forcetul
speaker and one who holds the interest
of his audience until his closing word
is uttered, and his recital last evening
OF his experiences in the stricken coun-
tries of Europe thrilled his audience in
way that will not soon be forgotten,
and furnished TO each and every one
of those present a graphic picture OF
the gigantic struggle that will be in
dellibly impressed upon their memory.
1t was such a recital as one coul dnot
we'll afford to miss.
