DeFUNIAK.

DeFuniak, March 11.-Chautauqua
day after day offers unusual attrac-
tons, with its splendid program and
the exercises are well attended. Those
who have attended the Bible hour,
conducted by DR.. King, have found
, them full of interest and profit.
The concert by the Riheldaffer
Skibinsky Company has never been
excelled on the Chautauqua platform,
and DeFuniak audience appreciates
classical music when faultlessly rem
dered as this company does.
The orchestra, Nell Bunnell, and
the splendid Pensacola choral So
ciety treated large audiences to such
| fine selections that the week has been
of great pleasure to all who delight in
good or, l should say, fine music.
The teachers association has been
in session since Wednesday.
The hotels have as many guests as
they can accommodate, and some of
the visiting teachers are being enter
tanned in private families.

Walton county high school gave a
| charming reception to the visiting
teachers. Mrs. R. z. L. McCaskill
kindly rendered the use of her spa
cious rooms for the occasion. Mes

pansies, interviewed with lilac tulle,
the ends of which were caught on the
