LAKE BREEzES
THEY ARE A TRIFLE COOL FOR
BEST CHAUTAUQUA
RESULTS

The weather is just a little
against u.s. remarked Treasurer
Beck, recounting the business of the
chautauqua assembly. While there
are more people permanently located
on the grounds and more season
tickets out than last year, the sale of
single admission tickets has been
somewhat less. The first five days
last year showed aggregate ticket
sales of $1,34S, while this year dur
ing the same number of days the
sales show $1,0S0. On the other
hand, the cafeteria for the first five
days last year showed receipts of
$500, while this year the receipts for
the same number Of days have been
$500"
Clear, hot weather is the only sys-
tenn for lake outings, whether for
chautauqua assembly or otherwise,
and such weather has not prevailed
anywhere this year. Last evening
about the time people should leave
the city for the lake by automobiles
and train there was a shower of rain,
the night was cold with continued
cold today.

cellent. Signor Bellino, the accordion
