Guard helped raise the (barn frame)
of the now Christian church in Paw

The Midland Chautauqua Circuit
announces that the week Of August
% to 20 both dates inclusive, have
been definitely fixed for the Paw Paw
Chautauqua. Mr.. Holiday, manager
Of the Circuit is putting forth every
effort this year, to make this Chau-
tauqua the best ever presented, and
some wonderful talent has been book
ed. The program this year as in the
past, will be built for purpose. As
the keynote of the program last year
was "The Winning of the War, this
year it will be Reconstruction"
There will be plenty of music and
plenty of entertainment, but this
thought will underlie the program.
Probably the most unusual feature on
the program this year will be Lieut..
A. J. candy" Nelson, "The Flying
Parson" in his lecture. problems of
the Air.. Lieut.. Nelson, previous to
the war was Methodist minister who
says that just because he happened
to be a minister he did not see any
real reason why he should let some
one else do all the fighting, SO he en-
listed in the aviation branch of the
service. He proved to be an apt pupil
and was soon placed in the instruct
ion division and spent almost one
year in that department. He will
make the circuit in his plane and if
the weather conditions are favorable
will probably make an exhibition
fight just before his lecture on the
program. His machine will then be
placed on exhibition at the tent where
it may be examined at the close of
the lecture. Among the other lectures
on the program will be DR.. Lyman
Powell, former president of Hobart
College, and one of the best known
writer's and educators of the east. He
was the first man chosen by the
government to go abroad and study
the effects of the war on education.
DR.. d. d. Vaughan, man who has
seen life from all angles will be an
other interesting character. Solely
by his own efforts he rose from a
newsboy on the streets of Chicago to
minister, occupying the pulpit of
one of the most aristocratic and in
