PLANS TO BRING
THE CHAUTAUQUA TO
CITY NEXT SUMMER

c. H. Gets of New York, supernten-
dent of the Community Chautauqua re-
Gently held in the city, expressed the
opinion Wednesday that Augusta would
ultimately develop the finest Chautauqua
in the State. He stated that the Chau-
tauqua was introduced to the city at a
sacrifice to the company but now that
the citizens know the purpose Of the
Chautauqua the important step has been
taken and each season will show an In
creasing attendance.
The Chautauqua is designed for COM
munity improvement and ultima tely it will
be supported by all. There is no limit to
what can be done by a Chautauqua; les
lures may be given on any subjects from
hygiene to agriculture and the finest art
lists may be brought to the city. An ex-
ample Of the community improvement
work which the Chautauqua does is the
setting on foot in Augusta the movement
for municipal playground for the chill
dren Of the city.
Mr.. Gets said that those who attended
the meetings held in the city were en-
thusiastic in their applause and were
very appreciative. Great credit is due to
Thomas c. Ingraham. director of the To-
cal Chautauqua Association, for his work
in bringing the Chautauqua to the city.
and to r. G. Goodman, chairman Of the
ticket committee.
A body OF the local citizens is now plan
ming to bring the Chautauaua to Augusta
next summer by guaranteeing 800 course
tickets OF the 800 tickets that must be
guaranteed 400 have already been pledged.

world beater, the Benedicts being un-
