MENDS
PUNCTURES IN
PEOPLES LIVES

An audience Of more than $500 per
sons shook with laughter at the hu-
morous lecture on "Puncture-Proof
People," delivered at Chautauqua last
night by Tom Hendricks. BY humor-
Gus story and action he kept the aud
fence in constant roar Of laughter.
The philosophy Of being puncture
proof person, according to Tom Hen
bricks, is nothing new, faith, unselt.
ishness and love Of duty were empha-
sized as attributes of puncture proof
persons.
Road Appears Smooth.
When first we back our cars from
the garage of parental care to the road
Of life. that road seems fair and
smooth, but as We travel we find 1t
full OF ruts and chuck-holes," he said
"The fault is not with the road. but
with our tires. We have lost the God
given powers of resiliency with which
we should meet the shocks of the
road"
I'VE must have greater faith In
God, in our fellowman, and In our
selves. I like to see a swell-headed
boy. with great ideas of what he can
do. We must also have unselfishnesS.
If we were made to live for ourselves
God would not have created us In his
image, he would have stopped with the
hawk and the buzzard. We also need
love Of duty. When the love Of duty
fails the walls of character crumble
before temptation"
Tom Hendricks then recounted, in
what he termed BILLY Sunday slang"
the story Of David and Goliath as H.
Illustrative of the need of faith in God
and self. This was one of the hits of
the evening.
The lecture was preceded by
concert by the Wcisbrod Saxophone
Orchestra.
