Wilson Approves
Chautauqua
PRESIDENT BELIEVES WORK
MORE IMPORTANT
THAN EVER

The following letter written by
President Wilson, in December, 1917,
to Montaville Flowers, president of
the International Chautauqua asso-
citation, tells what the President
thinks of Chautauqua programs in
war times:
"My dear Mr.. Flowers:
l. has been Z, my mind Cor some
time to thank your organization for
the very real help it has given to
America in the struggle that is con-
cerned with every fundamental ele-
ment of national life. Your speak
&ers, going from community to COM
unity, meeting people in the friend
spirit engendered by years Of IN
mate and understanding contact,
ave been effective messengers for
he delivery and Interpretation of de-
4nocracy's meaning and imperative
needs. The work that the Chautau-
qua is doing has not lost Importance
because Of war, but rather has gained
new opportunities for service.
Let me express the hope that you
will let no encouragement weaken
your activities, and that the people
will not fail in the support of a pa
triotic institution that may be said
to be an integral part of the national
Defense.
Cordially and sincerely yours,
Woodrow Wilson.

REDWOOD lelsg W VI
ParaderS Fail
Get Into County
LINDBERG BANNERS STOPPED
AND REDWOOD COUNTY is
NOT INVADED

The parade Of non-partisan league
members, who planned to parade
through Renville and Redwood coun-
ties last Saturday, advertising their
candidate for governor, was not en-
tirely successful, and was very IN
successful as far as the getting into
Redwood County part of their pro-
gram was concerned.
Cars bearing the Lindberg banners
and carrying prominent league men,
bers visited several of the Renville
county owns and villages Saturday
morning and afternoon, meeting,
from all The Gazette has learned, lit
tie opposition until they reached
Morton. Here DIR. Penhall, mayor of
the village, and other citizens insist
ed that they should not enter the
village and were successful in stop
ping them after some alteration
with Sheriff Sunde Of Renville coun-
ty, who insisted that the paraders
were within the limit of the law and
should be permitted to go through
the town. However, they We're
turned back and took another road
leading back into Renville county.
From telephone messages received
here Saturday morning it was evil
IDENTIFY the intention of the paraders
to come through Redwood Falls.
Sheriff Hassenstab and his deputies,
obeying the orders from the director
of the County Safety Commission,
A, D. Stewart and County At.or-
ney Emerson, were waiting for any
attempt to enter the county limits
of fha ID IaI
working subterfuge and got into
North Redwood but when it was as
certained that the occupants had
been participants of the parade. they
were stopped at North Redwood and
sent back and $50 far as is learned
none of the others attempted to get
into the county at all.
This was the second time the plans
of the league for last week were
frustrated. The picnic near Lucan,
at which Congressman Baer was to
speak last Wednesday afternoon, was
stopped when it was discovered that
Mr.. Baer was to speak under the
auspices Of the league. The meeting
was then carried over into Lyon
county, where the address was given.
The county attorney of Redwood
county, the Safety Commission Di-
rector and the Sheriff were all at Lu-
can and spoke 20 the assembly, CIV
ing the reasons why no meeting Of
the non partisan league would be al
lowed in Redwood county. There was
no serious opposition to the ruling of
the three officers and no violence, the
meeting adjourning in quiet and
orderly manner.

Many Good Things
REDWOOD FALLS CHAUTAU-
QUA OPENS JUNE 20 WITH
SPLENDID PROGRAM

The Redwood Falls Chautauqua
season which opens June % and
closes with the evening program of
July 4, will be. made up of series Of
excellent features as shown by the
programs which arrived last week
and were distributed by the local
manager, D.. L. Crimmins. While
every number is good, some of them
stand out as being Of especial inter.
est in these days Of war and war ins
terests. YI
Marie Van Gastel, who gives the
main program feature on the third
day, is Belgian girl who was cap-
tured by the Germans the first year
of the war and later became a Red
Cross nurse. Miss Van Gastel has
seen much Of overseas duty and
knows, because she "saw," What
she saw she will tell wildly in her
talk.
DR.. Robt. o. Mathews. another
Red Cross worker and observer, will
talk the evening of July 2. Dr..
Mathews has also learned things frs.
hand and of his talk George B. Per-
kins, the conservative president of
the First National Bank Of Sac. Ia,
says: Il heard him at banquet a.
Des Moines soon after his return
from France and he certainly kept
his audience listening. He has his
own idea of conditions over there and
is not afraid to advance them, and is
able to do so in very impressive
manner" DR.. Mathews and Miss
Gastel are two of twelve people who
are in this country at present for
The express purpose of spreading the
propaganda of the Allied Nations.
Among the other very creditable
features is the Overseas Quartet,
consisting Of one soldier from each
of the armies of Scotland, France
America and England, all of whom
have been injured in the war. Then
Strickland Gillian, "Uncle Sans
Monkey Wrench" will give a pro-
gram. Chas. Ballington Booth will

there are many and varied entertain
ments and musical numbers, the
comic opera, "The DOLL" and The en-
tertainment by the military band of
the University of Iowa being two of
the best.

known young folks had quietly
slipped away to Redwood Falls and

couple. The contracting parties are
Miss Hazel Swan, daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. H. D. Swan of this place
and Herbert Keeef, son Of Mrs. A..
Keefe Of Minneapolis, but former
residents of Morton. Little is known
of the plans of the young folks out
side of the fact that they went
through Morton that evening on the
way to Minneapolis and that the
groom is expecting soon to COM

it is presumed Mrs. Keefe will be
near her husband during such time
as he may be located at military

OF CONTINUOUS WORK TO

The following letter from Provost

idea Of the magnitude Of the work
done by the loyal men who have

the past year. 1t is printed by the
wish of General Crowder. I. is dated
Fat Washington June 5.
/ Zone year ago occurred the first
Registration for military purposes Of
the young manhood Of the Nation.
Ten million men responded in sin
gle day. This accomplishment was
nothing short of marvellous. The
seemed unbelievable. But the work
Of classification of this great mass
of man-power in such way as to
permit of its organization and mould
ing into an effective army was en-
trusted to 1868 local boards and 1876
district boards constituting force
of nearly $4,000 of the leading citi-

of all our people.
swell may we pause today, while
another million of our youths enter
the lists, and survey the results Of
the years work. Each registrant has
been examined and his availability
for military service has been deter
mined. In other words, these millions
of men have been classified in such
a manner that the nation may now
call for them to come forward INTO
the, army. No call can be so large
that it will not be filled Immediately
whether the number be such as may
be filled by those who have been
found to stand in the first rank of
available or so great that men stand

ranks of availability must go for
ward. In other words all these mil
lions of men who one year ago were
an inert mass have become a mobile
army. Each has found his place and
each in his proper turn has marched
or awaits the order to march.
"These results could not have been
accomplished except through the de-

scored an unprecedented triumph and
have earned the undying gratitude of
the nation. Their achievement is one
