Midland Chautauqua Circuit Closed
Most Successful and Enjoyable
Progra1 asst Night.
MUCH THANKS N
REV. IAokLAA ooAL MGR
Six Hundred Tickets w. Z bscribed
For and Local Commit yned
Contract With Mi0
Circuit for Next q
Year. W4

Last evening the famous Victor
Band brought to close the best
Chautauqua program ever delivered
in Decorah. These musicians demon
strated to the satisfaction of every
one that they were one of the best
bands ever heard in Decorah.
On Wednesday the Bostonia Sextet
delighted everyone with their splen-
did program and many pronounced
DR.. Wiggam's lecture on Eugenics
the "best ever"
Miss Dominick's Scandinavian dia-
lect was a scream and many were
the compliments paid her. The debate
on Socialism was so hotly contested
that opinion was evenly divided as
to the victor, but all were agreed
that it was hot one.'
Rosani's juggling not only pleased
the children, but it made the adults
sit up when he introduced his most
daring feats.
Senator Lafe Young met the expec-
tation of the large audience that
greeted him and he gave thrilling
account of his experiences in the Eur
opean war zone.
DR.. Russell H. Conwell was at his
best. His classic, Acres of Dia-
monds," was never more effectively
delivered, and it will live long in the
minds of those who heard it.
DR.. Medbury, of Des Moines, gave
one of the most popular addresses
ever delivered in Decorah. He spoke
amidst trying conditions of severe
storm, but held his audience through
out the entire session.
The Ernest Gamble Concert Party
gave their concert program here and
the many encores bespoke their mer-
tied success.
The Sunday program consisting or
The Boyds, Edmund Vance Cooke
and DR.. Hunsberger was uplifting, en-
tertaining and instructive.
The Anderson operate quintet cas-
lily scored the musical honors of the
Chautauqua II the midst of Sc
we're storm and unable to use their
different costumes they presented the
opera Martha" and several other
selections. Every member OF the
company is of'the highest type and
the fact that everyone is asking their
return is the best commendation
that could be given them.
At the close of the Chautauqua
over 600 tickets were subscribed for
and the local committee signed the
contract with the Midland Circuit for
next year.

when those who own automo-
biles and use the roads the most
persistently dodge the payment of
their auto tax-even getting out Ii
censes in Nebraska in order to save
money-it is not to be wondered
that the smaller taxpayer raises a
protest over the burden being SHOW
ed on him." complains the Sioux
City Tribune. "It is the peculiar in
justice of the incidence of all taxa
ton that the man most able to pay
is the one most likely to escape.
while the man least able to pay can
not escape paying both his share and
portion of the rich tax dodgers
share"

CATCHY CLAPTRAP.

1t is worth while occasionally to
analyze catchy claptrap.
Here is a sample from the New
York Herald:
Preparedness causes war; cries
Herr Wilhelm j. Won Bryan. You
don't seem to get it? Tut, it's easy.
1t follows the axioms laid down in
the Matteawan Advanced Logis,
thus
1.-Umbrellas cause rain.
2.-Shoes produce feet.
3.-Hair causes badness.
4.-Rainfall produces drought.
"And so on, and on, and on, to
psychopathic infinity.
b Herr Won Bryan is not at all diff
feult to understand-if you can get
into the same mental state"
If the reader will ask himself
what umbrellas are for, and what
shoes are for, and what hair is for,
anu Wldl ldluLdll 10 lOI, anu tACu
ask himself what military prepara-
tion is for, he will have no further
trouble as between Herr Won Bry-
an" and his critics.
Military preparation is for war.
Military preparation sets people to
thinking about war. Military pre-
paration trains young men to look
to war for promotion. Europe is at
war today simply and solely because
Europe was ready for war and there
was nothing to do but to fight.
On the other hand rainfall is not
for drought, rainfall does not pre-
pare for drought, nothing about
rainfall suggests drought, rainfall
does not train people to be ready
for drought, in fact the furthest
thing from everybody's thought dur
ing rainfall is drought.
But what the Herald says is fully
as sensible as anything anybody can
say for military preparedness. The
Herald is entitled to that much
credit.-Register & Leader.

German thrift when applied I

German thrift when applied to
Iowa plenty has resulted in bank
deposits of $30,0O0,0O0 in Daven-
port, a town of $4,000 people.
There are 10000 individual ac-
counts in the banks of that city
indicating that everybody except
ingla few babies has a bank account.
Davenport is the richest city in the
Omitted States per capita, excepting
only, Hartford, Conn, where the in
surance company's keep immense
sans on deposit.

Some men kick about the high tax

Some men kick about the high tax
es they are obliged to pay and about
the lack of improvements and then
they send their money away to 9TH
er towns where taxes are still high
er and where the money is used to
make improvements that are lack
ing in the home town. Consistent,
isn't it?

The Business Men and Park Commits
sioners Extend Cordial Invi-
tatiOn to all to Celebrate at
DecOrah's Beautiful
City Park.
BIG DISPLAY OF
FIREWORKS in EVENING
Calmar and Decorah Will Play Base
Ball, the City Band Will Play,
and an Enjoyable Program
of Speeches Will be
Given.

next Monday, July 5. The Park Com
missioners and the business men Of
Decorah extend most cordial invi-
tation to all to come to Decorah and
enjoy the day at Decorah' beautiful
city park. Last year the nations holi-
day was celebrated here with an en-
joyable program at the Park and the
day was voted great success by all
who attended. A fine program Of
amusements will be carried out, and
there will be plenty to amuse and en-
thuse all. There will be plenty of
contests provided for the kids to keep
them busy all DAY. Refreshments Of
all kinds will be for sale on the
grounds.
In the evening beautiful display
of fireworks will take place on the
edge of the bluff. Those in charge
have spared no expense on the fire
works display and it promises to be
one of the finest ever seen in Decor
ah, and we have had some good ones
There is one suggestion we would
like to make to automobile drivers
this year who drive to the Park, and
that is be careful where you stop
your cars. Park them around the en-
tire park, and don't congest the road
ways. Then If any drivers wish to
depart at any time they will be able
to turn their cars. Last year the
park became so congested that the
drivers had hard time in getting out
of the Park. This shouldn't be so as
there is plenty of room, and a little
Judgment on the part of the drivers
will do away with all congestion.
Calmar and Decorah will play ball
in the afternoon at the fair grounds,
and this insures some good base ball
sport.
At two o'clock in the afternoon the
following informal program will be
carried out.
