The Chautauqua season closes
next Friday after a week Of lee
lures and entertainments which

large crowds considering the
many counter attractions. To-
night "Wednesday Senator Bur-

change from the afternoon to
the evening having been made
because Of the race program this
afternoon. The afternoon pro-
gram will be given by the Sibyl

the programs offer interesting
material and Friday both after
noon and evenings programs viii

ton which pleased all listeners
at its first appearance here two
years ago.
Perhaps the two most popu-
lar lectures so far given are
those by Morris G. Hindus and
DR.. Frank Gunsaulus. Both these
speakers pleased the large audi
ences hearing them. The lecture
by Prof. Wassam Sunday was
not SO well liked. Maud Scheer-
er's Shakepere Players enter

The entertainment given last

high class in all respects and
has been we'll spoken of by those
who attended. The readings

part of their interpreter. Both
ladies showed ability, and will
be heartily welcomed at any re-
turn date.
