noon is attracting a good deal of at

all.
The attendance at the chautauqua
has increased every day since the
opening, and there will be much less
work required next year to interest
the public. The seating capacity Of
the tent is being taxed at the evening
sessions and at some of the afternoon
meetings the tent has been well filled.

on June 8, for evading registration, is
still a guest of Sheriff Jeffries. Word

Six cars of enterprising residents Of
Springfield attended the Bonanza Bar
picnic yesterday. and stopped in
American Falls to attend the chau-
tauQua at night. The party embrac-
ed the most successful seed growers
of Springfield and vicinity, and in
clude Arthur ]. Snyder and family.
r George A. Line and family, H. X.
Wylie and family, I. y. Meyer and
/, family. and E. y. Wells and family.
b. These men have done enough to dem
, onstrate the possibilities of seed grow
[ ing to warrant their being rendered a
o. vote of thanks by all the people of
z southern Idaho.
- Il may be of interest to u chautau-
: qua patrons TO know that Of the 5000
chautauquas held In the United States
e and Canada, so far as is known Miss
e. Nola b. Critics is the only woman to
i grace the platform as superintendent.
As i'm all other lines of work. in spite
p of certain prejudices We find that the
q position is very efficiently filed. Il
. is hard to conceive of a mar taking
charge of u chautauqua and handling
it as quietly and skillfully as Miss
Critics is doing. U-nassuming, modest
and tactful. Miss Critics has won her
, way into the hearts of thousands OF
= people over the chautauQua circuit
; She practices what she breaches in
regard to scattering sunshine and is
never too busy nor too tired TO helI
someone in trouble.
American Falls will have the chau.
e tauQua again next year. So vel
r. pleased has the public been with thu
y program that it is an easy matter e
l. get representative men to guarantee
