seen the under side of life, and in his
talk easily took you away from it to
a brighter and happier view.
| In the evening the "Old Home Sing
crs" again delighted the audience
with songs, many Of them SO we'll
known, and the hour and 0ne-half of
entertainment came to close all too
soon. The songs ranged from the
classic to the most popular jingles,
but everyone had a story. The differ
ent members of the company were art
lists and the blending of their voices
was superb
Tuesday morning the junior chau-
tauqua was organized and the attend
ance of little folks was very good.
Miss Virginia Lewis is the supervis-
or of the juniors and she has already
proven herself very popular. During
the remainder of the week this depart
ment of the ohautauqua will no doubt
be very attractive and much enjoyed
by the little folks
A special address was given Tues
day morning at 10:3O by Yutake Nina
and those who were fortunate enough
to hear the gentleman pronounce the
address of very high order. He
spoke on "The Men and Religion For
ward Movement" and his flow of ex-
cellent English and splendid enuncia-
tion was most pleasing.
For the prelude in the afternoon of
Tuesday the university Girls" gave
a regular college fete. Each member
of the company was an artist, and
their performance on the different in:
struments, and the vocal work and
readings were of high class and
showed a perfection seldom equalled.
The afternoon lecture hour was TAX
en- up by Mr.. Lou J. Beauchamp, and
for an hour and a half he entertained
his audience such as only one of
Beauchamp's type can. The speaker
has faculty for driving away the
blues, and his talk on Taking the Sun
ny Side showed him to be big heart
cd, keen witted, whole souled and
dispenser of good cheer wherever he
having visited at one time or another
every country on earth He has
roamed all of the great seas, and been
admitted to every palace on the face
Of the earth He says he was never
permitted to attend even the common
schools and the only education he
possesses he has won by humping up
against the hard side OF the world. At
the time of the great Dayton flood
Mr. Beauchamp and his wife were ma
rooned for four days in the fourth
story of his home, and his eulogy to
the fraternal organizations, and he
belongs to a number, was most pa
thetic. How they cared for his loved
ones when he could not. will ever be
remembered as one of the lessons OF
his life.
