THE ChAUTAUQUA

The next big event which will
occur at kadoka will be the Chau
tauqua, on June l9, 20 and 2l
The Chautauqua has throughout
/ the United States grown to be d
big institution and in towns where
they have been held to provide a
| high class OF entertainment for
the midsummer, they have be
come a regular and fixed part
OF the towns enterprises, and
in the town where the editor
formerly resided the Chautauqua
was held as an eXperlment-at
the close of the last entertain
ment a season ticket guarantee
for the next summer was asked,
practically every one of the hun
dreds of persons present signed
up to purchase tickets and sup
port the Chautauqua the follow
ing summer. This also has been
the circumstance OF each sue
Ceedin3 year.
In bringing the Chautauqua to
kadoka the business people of
the town did not do as at some
placeS--require the advance sale
of a certain number of tickets
before signing the 9uarantee---but
took upon themselves the obliga-
ton OF making good any short
ages that might occur, realizing
that even with the most favor,
able weather and big crowds ev-
cry day the very best that could
be accomplished would be to paw
out on the actual expenses of the
entertainment.
The kadoka business people
ask you TO come and attend the
Chautauqua. They know that
you will enjoy the two entertain
mentS given each day, that you
will feel better for having attend
ed and more like returning again
to your laborS of producing.
President Wilson approves of the
Chautauqua, urges that they be
held and that pc pie attend. A
letter written by the President in
this regard appears on the first
page OF this issue.
Another fact of which kadOka
feels proud is that the people who
will furnish the entertainments
on these days are among the very
best in their lines and are the
same people as are appearing on
the Chautauqua and LyCeum
platforms of many of the larger
cities of the east. In fact, the
United Chautauqua System, from
whom the entertainments are Sc
cured, guarantees that they are
are the very best that have ever
been brought west of the Mis-
souri river.
Your attention is called to the
daily programs appearing on the
first page OF this issue. Read
them over and come and be with
us on these three days. We
know that you will feel we'll re-
paid for having attended and
more like again reSumine yonr
regular occupations.

BIG BUSINESS 3. FOR IRE YEAR

Business is good at Anchorage, and although I have been in Seward hardly 2S hours, part of that time be- ing Sunday, l find that business is good here. This was said by Sam Mcdonald, of the Seward Drug Co.,, who arrived on the Alameda from An chorage to remain here forseveral weeks. Mir. Mcdonald is to we'll known here to need any introduction.
 People in Alaska are just beginn- ing to feel the first pinch of this great war;, continued MT Mcdonald. "Be- cause many people are leaving the territory, croakers immediately jump to the conclusion that the country is going to the dogs. Nothing is further from the truth. There is plenty of work at Anchorage. True, many are leaving, but they are of class who have been doing special work on the railroad and are through. Many are also going outside to enlist. Many claim that Anchorage is going down and that is not so for Anchorage has a wide section to pull from and that section represents possible 10000 people.
 "Here in Seward much, will admit depends on the work on the railroad, but let me tell you that every man here now, or who will come will find occupation just as soon as the wealth CT conditions permit. Seward is not dependent upon work on the railroad Our drug company does much business with the westward the same as other merchants in the city. This money from the westward is spent here. This money remains here with the excep- ton of what goes outside to replenish stock. Seward does a large business with vast section as it is distribut- ing center.

Of the forward Y. NJ. G. A. stations

his grimness was In striking contrast
to the gayness of the men around him.

Mr.. HARRISON spent 20 hours with
the Rainbow division under heavy fire
in a certain one Of the American Sec
tors.
"Thls used to be quiet part OF
the 'front.'" Mr.. HARRISON explained.
"That is, 1t was quiet until the Yam
KEGS came. Among the troops who had
previously held these trenches there
had been less than a score of casual
ties in over year. The Boche moved
about pretty much as he pleased

that makes you proudest is that they
