bRYAN'S EARNING
POWER IS LARGE

Washington, July 22.-The tremen'
dous earning power OF William j.
Bryan as a platform lecturer on the
chautauqua circuit is not generally
appreciated by the public. An es-
tinate was made today by the man
ager of lyceum bureau, a man of
wide experience, and who has man
aged the lecture tours of many pub
lie men. Based upon Mr.. Bryan's
present scale Of prices, he shows that
by diligently devoting his attention
to the chautauQuas and lyeeums. the
former secretary of state can earn
nearly $4,000 year
Mr Bryan receives a guarantee Of
$3.50 for each lecture. After that
amount is taken in at the gate, he
and the management divide the re
nainder. each taking half Under
this arrangement Mr.. Bryan's share
will average $3.50 right through the
season, it is estimated. This would
give him a gross income of $4,000 a
week. or S5S.SO0 for the chautauqua

traction to strangers, the idea is al
so educational to residents Of the
city or town who do not have the op-
portunity of going into the country
TO see farm life for themselves. Sen
ator Owen believes.
In the collection and installation
of his exhibit, Postmaster Howard
was aided by the county agricultural
agent and Senator owen is of the
opinion that similar cooperation be-
tween postrasters and county agents
all over the state. and in Muskosee
county in particular, could be secur'
ed to the material advantage OF both
farmers and citizens of towns and
cities. 'itfNr
Although the treasury department
does not permit exhibits of any kind
in the lobby OF postoffice building,
the plan could be adopted at present
and the exhibit maintained until the
removal of the postoffice to the new
federal building in September.

Immediately. She would know what
the bags were for.

her companion with due gravity. The

has puzzled scientists. It seemed too
bad to deprive the place of seashore
