ChAUIAUQUA TO BE
BETTER THAN EVER
J. C. Herbsman Says 1t WIN Have
Great PrOgram-Urges Use of Print
er's Ink.

Declaring that the Twin Falls chau-
tauqua last year was the largest in a
circuit including 210 cities, including
Los Angeles and Ell Paso, and eight
state capitals, j. c.. Herbsman, of the
Ellison White circuit paid an eloquent
tribute to the enterprise of this city
yesterday at the noon luncheon of the
Twin Falls Commercial club at the
Parish hall. The luncheon was serv-
ed by the Ladies' Guild of the Episco-
pal church and will be made a weekly
affair
Mr.. Herbsman came as the advance
man of the chautauqua which will op-
en- here June 10 and continue for a
week. He spoke at some length on
the attractions and pointed out that
in substituting DR.. Charles Zueblen
for Nels Darling, a distinct advance
had been made. Dr. Zueblen is a lee
turer of international reputation, both
on sociology and civic organization
and has written books that are au-
thorities on the subject Mr. Herbs
man spoke in words of unstinted
praise Of the parish hall, and urged
that provisions be made for the heal
thy amusement of the boys and girls
now growing up. All the arrange
ments and speakers for the coming
year are superior to those on the pro-
gram last year, where changes have
been made
He spoke of the public spirit mani
Tested in the campaign for members
in the Twin Falls Commercial club as
analogous to the spirit shown in Cal
ifornia where each community pro-
ceeds on the theory that it is the best
on earth. He said that just before
dinner he mentioned the New York
Marine band as one of the coming at
fractions to a Twin Falls man and
the latter said at once, "That band is
nothing in comparison with the Twin
Falls band" That is the sort of spir-
1t that makes a community" declared
Mr.. Herbsman.
In conclusion he strongly urged the
use of printers ink in connection with
the spirit of cooperation and mutual
as means of upbuilding
the community
The 50-cent merchants dinner prov
ed popular affair and the large
crowd present voted with practical
for its continuance.

arios Speaking of the matter yester-
day, Mr.. Tayc said:
"a complete equipment, including
one of the best cameras on the mar
ket, has already been ordered and
within a week or two, host of local
actors will pose before the camera.
The whole cast will be composed of
local talent and there is every indica-
ton that very competent group Of
actors can be secured. The first film
will be shown at local theatre in a
short time, after which the films will
be distributed to all parts of the
country.
"The local scenery is especially
adapted to moving picture photogra-
ply, providing background for every
conceivable situation. The Twin and
Shoshone falls offer a very pretty set
ting, besides offering the possibilities
of some very dramatic pieces of photo
playing. Rock creek and the Snake
River canyon afford unlimited va
riety in scenery. Together with the
large tracts of sage brush, and the
great orchards of the vicinity, this
tract can provide a suitable stage for
any story. The local irrigating sys-
tenn with its great network of dams
and canals can offer numberless stor-
les and plots for the movie photogra
pher, thus making this locality an
ideal spot for this enterprise.
Besides providing delightful and
interesting pictures for the local
towns, these photoplays will furnish
widespread advertising for the Twin
Falls tract, for the company has ar
ranged to distribute the films to every
part of the country. All title and sub
titles of the Pleasure Producer"
films will use views of Twin Falls as
a background. Through the medium
of these films people in all parts of
the United States will be informed of
conditions existing in southern Idaho
and will thus see the great possibili-
ties of irrigated farming in the west

GREAT PAGEANT
MMHH iii IIN
Will BE SHOWN
This EVENING
Arrangements Are Made to
Handle Crowds and Prevent
Again Postponing

"AIl invited guests who had ribbon
badges given to them as passes for
the Kamehameha Day pageant are
asked to wear them when they come
tonight, so that they may be known
as guests to the ushers" Mayor Lane
asked that this be published by the
Star-Bulletin in the course Of tele-
phone conversation this afternoon.
Continuing, he said that It was most
regrettable that the pageant had to be
postponed last night and blamed, the
late arrival Of the "bleachers' for the
subsequent "mixup" which occurred
He stated that he was confident that
there would be no similar occurrence
this evening and that there would be
ample accommodations for all. The
mayor had spent most Of the day in
the Capitol grounds devoting his at
tention to the arrangements that we're
in progress for handling the crowds
tonight.
Crowds Cause Postponement.
Postponement of last nights page
ant From Darkness to Light" until
tonight came as the result of too
much success In drawing crowds. So
many people flocked onto the grounds
and into the bleachers that the police
could not control them. Those who
had paid for admission could not get
their seats. Those who had not pur-
chased tickets filled the stands.
A few futile requests to move we're
made to the crowds occupying the
seats and then 1t was announced that
the show would not be given until to-
night
Bleachers belonging to the Kane
hameha Day Celebration Committeet
were loaned to the racing association
for the day and Immediately after the
meet at Kapiolani park was over were
torn down and carried to the Palace
grounds, where they were TO be used
for the pageant. But work was delay
ed by the crowd at the park and the
stands were not up when people be-
gan to arrive at the Palace.
As fast as the bleachers were erect
ed they were occupied Neither the
police nor the Boy Scouts, who did
valiant work; could dislodge the inn
patient crowd. The participants In
the pageant were IN costume, the
steam curtain whistled ansrily, the
band was ready, but no pageant could
be Held.
Tickets for last night viii be hon
ored tonight. Those who threw their
tickets away have only to say so and
new ones viii be issued. The stands
are all In place TODAY and the police
are prepared to maintain order. AZ
Last nights failure has only
strengthened the determination OF the
committee to make the affair pass off
successfully tonight" declared Mayor
Lane today He IS chairman OF the
executive committee.
