clude Many Interesting Features;
Ticket Sale Brisk

Lynden's big Chautauqua, seven
days full of music, lectures, and
high-class entertainment, will open
Saturday night, and will last during
the next week.
The huge brown tent will be pitch
ed this year on the Lynden grammar
school grounds at Seventh and Ed
ison streets. This site was select
ed because of the many advantages
it offered in the way of slope, at
tractive surroundings, and facility
for parking automobiles.
Preliminary estimates of the num-
ber.. of season tickets sold indicate
that Lynden again has scored sue
cess in this field. With the reaching
of the guarantee limit of six hund-
red tickets, the reduced price seas
on admissions will be taken off the
market. These are being sold now
| for $3.50, less than ten cents an at
traction, and with the closing of the
preliminary sale, these will advance
to $500. Mark Hammond, head of
the ticket selling committee, expects
. to see all the tickets sold before Fri
day night.
! Tickets are being sold by the men,
bers of two teams, headed by Gener-
ais p. M Serrurier and w. II. Wap-
les, or they may be obtained at the
Lynden State Bank, City Drug Store,
or any Lynden store.
All ticket sellers are requested to
turn in all unsold tickets at once to
Mark Hammond, chairman of the
