FIRST CHAUTAU0UA
For Princeton Will Open Next Satur-
day and Continue to July ga
Splendid Program Assured.
1t is Community Event and One That
Should Be Made Memorable One
Help the Good Cause Along.

Princeton has never had chautau-
qua. This year, however, we will have
a chautauqua, and it will be good
one.
The chautauqua will be held on July
1, 2, 3, 4, and s. It will be five days
in length with two full programs each
day. A lady supervisor will also con-
duct the Children's chautauqua each
morning. A stage manager will be on
the grounds at all time to take care OF
the arrangements.
The chautauqua will be in this city
at a time when everyone will need a
little outing-the warm weather per-
iod. And it will be under large
tent, cool and inviting. 1t should be
the home coming time and reunion
time for all relatives and friends.
Those who have gone to other places
should be invited to come back home
for chautauqua week. Many of them
will gladly come and enjoy the time
with you Get away from the daily
routine of the home and from the
daily grind of business for an hour or
two each day, and recuperate at the
chautauqua.
It is a community event, and should
be made great one. Make it serve
the community and the town in the
widest way possible. Do this by in
viting in those from the country and
nearby towns. 1t is for them to en-
joy and get the benefit to be derived
therefrom. The kind of boosting that
will bring the best results and the
most lasting to the town, is the boost
ing done by the business men and the
citizens for the chautauqua.
The program to be given is high
class in every way-not a cheap num-
her in it. Not one or two high spots
and the balance cheap, but all of it
from the start to finish is the best the
country affords In fact it costs the
people more than they can afford to
pay unless the entire people realize
the opportunity and support the chau-
tauqua.
The name Bertram means excell-
ence, and it is the proud boast of the
Bertram Chautauqua system that they
give nothing but the best. They have
spared neither time, labor or expense
to make this program pleasing, entel =
tanning, informing and inspiring.
There will be plenty of wit and hui.
NOR, great chunks Of fun for every
body. If you do not want to laugh
until your sides ache then you had bet
ter stay away. Some of the most de-
ightfully humorous lectures, clean
comedy in songs, readings and plays
He who has not laughed has lost the
day, and the apostles of laughter and
sunshine wins more days and puts
purity and cheer in more hearts than
any other human living.
Then, there will be the sublime ora
tory, moving eloquence serious and i'm
portant truths presented in the most
able manner. You will learn some
things that you never knew before,
and you will be better informed on the
great topics Of the day.
Do you love music? Do you like the
kind of music that thrills the world
, in the great centers of population
where the great artists gather and
work? On account of long circuit
the chautauqua brings it to your very
doors for a few pennies. You will
have chance to hear the only Danish
Grand Opera Singer in America, Ma
dame Florence Bodinof Of the Royal
Opera, Copenhagen, and her Four
Mendelsshon Girls; one of the finest
male quartettes in the country; also
Jalma's Symphony Ensemble of Min
neapolis, a great musical organiza-
ton that will be musical treat to any
community, and many others of equal
note and talent
Season tickets cost $3.50 each for
the entire chautauqua, and that is Is
cents per session. And any session
will be worth the price Of a season
ticket
Don't forget the Children's chautau-
qua, free to all the little tots and the
boys and girls. Give them a chance
to attend.
