SOUTHERN ORATOR AT
MORRIS CHAUTAUOUA
Former Governor Glenn of North
Carolina will be Here This Sum-
Musical Features

The Hon. Robert B. Glenn, former
governor of North Carolina, and one
of the South's most eloquent men,
will appear on our ChautauQua pro-
gram this summer and will deliver
one of his stirring patriotic ad-
dresses.
This announcement was made by
C. c. Collett, field manager for the
Vawter Chautauqua System, who was
here for the purpose of arranging
dates for the big summer event.
Mr.. Collett declares that this
years program is superior to any
previously offered by the Vawter
System and after a survey of the tai
ent which is to appear here, the local
committee is inclined to believe him.
MUSICAL NUMBERS
Although the appearance of Gov
ernor Glenn will naturally be one of
the big events of the Chautauqua it
will by no means be the only feature.
The musical attractions promise to
be especially popular this year as
each organization will present pro-
grams altogether different in char
acter from any of the others.
AS popular musical number the
program by the COlumbians on the
opening night promises to give the
Chautauqua a good start. This is
company of six clever and versatile
girls who present a program of vocal
brass, and stringed music. The Cath
edral Choir will present a program
which differs entirely from the Col
umbians. The great oratOriOs, maj
estic hymns, anthems, and standard
selections from the worlds best
sacred musical literature will be
sung by an organization of eight
artists. Solos, duets, male and lad
les quartets, and an octet comprise a
combination which should please all
Still different will be the program
by the Gray-Lhevinne Company, Es-
telle Gray, violinist, and Mischa Lhe-
vinne, pianist, are recognized artists
with an established standing in the
