COMMUNITY BUILDING
IMPORTANT PHASES TO Be DISCUSSED ON
FORTHCOMING CHAUTAUQUA PROGRAM
Frank Dixon, widely known lecturer,
to Speak on "The Social Sur
vey" or Taking Stock
of a Town."

Frank Dixon, one of the best
known lecturers in America today,
on the forthcoming Redpath Chau-
tauqua program, is to take for his
subject "The Social Survey or
Taking Stock of a Town" This is
in keeping with the general idea that
is now prevailing in the Chautauqua
world, that of community building.
The American people are realizing
that the creation OF a town or city
may be the result Of deliberate, intel
ligent, community action. The
landscape architect, the art COM
mission, the sanitary engineer, and
the municipal expert are destined to
displace the "cow-path," the spite
house." the real estate Spectator,
and the ward politician. Economy,
beauty, health, efficiency-these are
the most valuable assets OF any town
or city, and their conservation is the
supreme duty Of enlightened citizen
ship.
Mr.. Dixon gave this lecture last
summer at large number OF Chat
tauquas in the East and immediate
results along lines OF community
building were chronicled from many
places. In some towns and cities
funds were established for maintain
ing of parks. In one place the board
of health heard this lecture in a body
and reported that il there had been
no other feature on the ChautauQua
program, that the Chautauqua was
well worth while.
AS Mr.. Dixon describes instances
OF towns which have bonded them
selves to pave streets and then
two or three years later bonded the
city again to build sewers which re-
quired the tearing up Of the streets,
he is usually greeted with such re-
spouse from the audience as would
indicate that the same thing has been
done in the very city in which he is
delivering the lecture.
Mr.. Dixon, il will be recalled, is a
! brother Of Thomas Dixon, who
wrote the leopard Spots" and OF
DR.. A. c. Dixon, pastor Of the Spur
geon church in London.
He was born in North Carolina.
after the Civil War, of Scotch-Irish
parents, and graduated from the
University OF his native state. He
taught school a year, entered the
ministry, held pastorates in West
Virginia, California and Connecticut,

This change is not going to come
all at once, of course, but very
gradually. And 1t is not going to
come at all until farmers realize an
other big fact: that feed must come
before livestock. and that the grass
will not be sowed nor legumes plant
ed to supply the horses and cattle
and hogs and sheep. but that these
animals will be grown and fed be-
cause of the abundance of feeds and
the profits to be had by utilizing
them.
A system of livestock farming and
the profits that come from livestock
farming are alike impossible without
an abundance OF feeds. At the very
foundation of stock husbandry are
grass-clad fields and well-filled hay
mows: and until these are had. any
large development of the livestock in
dustry will be proftless. II not impos-
