chautauqua Part Of the Es.
sentiaI Machinery Of
Democracy.

Editorial From the Chicago Hsraid.)
- HE Chautauqua movement il one
Of tile effective means which the
modern world has discovered for
creating public opinion. What the ten
cent magazines were q decide ago.
what the social centers may be after
ten years struggle, tile Chautauqua
movement is today. 1t Is a part Of
the essential machinery Of the democ-
yacy.
The first Chautauqua was akin to
the tirst woman's club. 1t was an or
ganization for easy culture. 1t was
intended to be an American c~ontradic.
ton to Aristotle's overquoted remark
to Alexander the Great that there is
no royal road to learning. During
brief summer seasons the early Chau-
tauqua leaders tried to administer ed
ucation with the aid of an anaesthetic.
The patient was not to know what was
happening. .
But the movement grew and rapidly
burst beyond the early 'culture'' stage.
Unacademic people took part In II.
Soon It was a vast and inclusive effort
to satisfy the genuine desires Of the
average American, especially Of the
men and women who live in the small
cities and in the country.
Entertainment was provided for their
amusement. Those who craved learn.
Ing were given the opportunity to meet
real scholars. But withal the we'll
known public lenders. the men and
women who stand for the representa-.
tive things in national life, were called
forth. The Chautauqua became a great
imperial forum for the discussion Of
the deeper Issues Of the country. It
was an immense avenue for the ex.
preston Of liberal thought.
To an extent seldom realized the
Chautauaua has aided In making the
Tinted States what It Is. Men like
.fhdge Ben r. Lindsey ~ere enabled
through It to find tremendous audi
ences, for their idens. The Chautau-
ana has ;been a free institution. In it
the heart Of the American people has
heat vigorously. To-day coon, OM peo-
ME are numbered in the host touched
by the movement.
Who can estimate the power which
such an organization exerts in . land
where persistent public opinion Is the
ultimate sovereign
