BANDS Collegians.
Music, novelty, rollicking fun-they
are all a part of the program given
by this famous organization. For four
years straight they have been with one
single Chautauqua System. This year
they bring their brilliant program to
the premier Carmean circuit. There
are a great number of coaches and
producers in the country but no other
that quite fills the place occupied by
Harrie l.. Bland. He gives his pro-
gram a zip and an interest unequalled
elsewhere in the Chautauqua. Or
chestral numbers, male quartets, brass
trios and duets, stunts vocal solos,
readings artistic masterpieces and the
raggiest of ragtime chase each other
i thru the programs with never a stop
or wait. The happy go lucky Col
lege boys in the Company enjoy every
minute Of every program and vie with
each other in furnishing surprises and
novelties. And how they can play!
Their art does not suffer from their
love of fun. They play everything
from xylopho1e to ukelele and do them
all well. Every man does to to five
different things. Two wsLderful pro-
grams are their contribution to Chau-
tcuqua. They carry beautiful stage
setting and their own curtains and

In these history making days every
citizen should be a statesman. With
the desire to bring first hand informa-
ton of our governmental policy to
Cadmean assemblies. Honorable Finley
H. Gray of Indiana has been invited
to speak on "The Underlying Causes
of the War" He was In Congress
at the time German aggravations were
accommodating to the point finally reach
ed at the outbreak of the war. He
knows intimately the reasons America
is at war, and being a sound logician
and most foroeful speaker is abun-
dainty able to bring a worth while
message to the people.
Mr. Gray was known in Congress
as a great debater and a great orator.
He is, unusual in his style, always SER
ious and never speaks except when he
is thoroughly informed and feels deep
~ on the subject under discussion. He
brings a burning message of patrio-
tism and national honor and national
efficiency. He of all the Chautauqua
attractions should be heard without
fail.
Count John S0bieslri
Son of a race of kings-homeless
penniless orphan, exile, veteran of
two wars, American patriot and re-
former, lecturer of international fame
such is the life story of John
Sobieski
When Europe was once before
threatened with destruction it was his
grand sire, King John III of Poland,
that by a march and victory still a
miracle delivered Vienna and Austria
from the Turkish hordes. The throne
that would else now be his was later
torn asunder by the ungrateful might
of the Hapsburg rulers of Austria as
sisted by the Hohenzollerns, now seek
ing world denomination, and the Ro-
manoffs The innermost history of the
present war lords of Europe he knows
as family history. A veteran of ten
years American army experience In
Guiding the bitterest fighting in the
Civil War and the great Mexican war
for freedom from Macmillan whose
execution he commanded he knows the
forces of world politics as few other
men. Hear Sobieski!
Edgar s. Findley.

and religion. The statesman of our
own and all other countries are exert

active and healthy. The armies re-
eeive the best of entertainment Kind
ley does not talk war; but better living
and finer thinking and more conscien-
tious devotion to work. 1t would be
almost impossible to find a more at
