AUDUBON TO HAVE
BIG CHAUTAUQUA SOON

| Reports from the communities
where the 1919 chautauqua program
has been given indicate that the adj
vance promises of the Redpath-
Vawter System are true that is in
deed 1.-THE best ever"
Newspaper comments from Win
field, Keota, West Liberty Hampton,
Nevada, Charles City, Marion. Ell
dora, and the other chautauqua
towns declare that the current pro-
gram surpasses in excellency any
thing ever offered by the Redpath-
! Vawter folks.
That the Cedar Rapids chautauqua
folks made a ten-strike when they
contracted with Sir John Foster
Fraser is apparent from the COM
ments on this lecture. Sir John, it
will be remembered, is the British
Journalist who comes to the Ameri-
can chautauQua platform direct
from the Paris peace conference. His
address is declared to be a great ex :
| position of the deliberations of that
conference and the personal associa-
lions which the distinguished visitor
has had with such personages as
Lloyd George, Clemenceau, Orlando
and Venizelos makes his address a
valuable contribution to current in
ternational history. The English
man has been holding the close at
tention of his audiences for two
hours each night and the papers de-
claring his address che finest thing
ever offered by the Redpath-vawter
people"
The exhibitions of military flying
under the direction of Lieut.. Milo
H. Miller have proved to be success
full and hundreds of people over the
circuit have taken trips in the air
with the former army pilot The
presentation of 1.-THE Melting Pot
seems to surpass in popular approval
the comedy 1T Pays to Advertise
of last year. The Banda Roma is
declared to be the peer of any band
organization offered by the Chautau-
qua folks and the sixth day witr the
band Major Bridgman and the aer-
oplane flights is proving the greatest
crowd-getter in chautauqua history.
DR.. Medbury, Frank Dixon, Gov
ernor Carlson, Detective Loose and
Mary X. Nelson are all going "big."
Among the entertainment features
the White Hussars. the Saxaphone
Sextette and Ralph "Bing" Bing-
ham are winning high praise.

Mother of Negro Pupil Loses
Her Case in Court.
Complained Because Teacher
Whipped Impudent Child.

The school board and every pupil
in Belvue school attended the trial of
their teacher. Roy Buckley. in the
court of Topeka today. Buckley was
charged with administering excessive
punishment upon Viola Martin, ne
gro pupil in the school. Nearly every
one of the thirty or more pupils had
been subpoenaed as witnesses.
After the state had concluded pres
entation of its evidence, Judge Rad
NJ. Lee announced he had heard suf-
ficient, the evidence of Buckleys wit
nesses was not needed The Judge dis
the trial against the girls mother, who
had sworn to the. complaint
"A child as impudent as Viola should
be whipped" Judge Lee told the girls
child whipped under similar circum-
stances"
How 1t All Happened.
Testimony presented by the child
witnesses indicated that two boys in
the school were whispering boy sub
jects. the army and the soldiers, and
one boy asked the other the distance
to Camp Funston. Just at this point
the young schoolteacher took a hand
in the discussion. He asked the lads
what they were whispering about.
The information was given to him and
at this point. witnesses say, the Mar
tin. girl volunteered the following in
formation for the benefit of the other
pupils:
That's just like Mr.. Buckley. He
wants to know about everything"
Continuing the witnesses described
the summoning of Viola to the teach
er's desk with a request from the
teacher that Viola should extend her
right hand, which she did. Pat, pat
pat went a ruler on the childs palm.
She broke away, the witnesses say,
and ran toward the door.
The teacher, SO the story ran, as
sisted Viola to her desk and insisted
on assisting her in seating herself. In
the hurried act of descending from a
standing to a sitting posture, Niola's
body it seemed conflicted with her
desk, resulting in dumping reading,
writing and arithmetic books on the
floor.
Would Make No Promise.
Finally seated, it was asserted by
the witness, the young teacher deliv-
cred three slaps on Viola's mouth, fol-
lowed by this query:
"Will you ever say that again ?"
81 don't KNOW" Viola is quoted as
replying.
One, two, three more taps from the
teachers open hand.
Have you come to a more definite
decision?" the teacher queried.
Il might" retorted Viola.
Hostilities ceased. so the pupils say.
However. Viola's mother refused to
join in the peace pact and haunted
the office of Hugh Fisher, county at
torney, until a complaint was filed.
Buckley is white man, just out of
the army.

Memorial day exercises there be di-
vided SO as to allow Mr.. Taft to speak
on the league of NJ tions.
The Kansas commander, w. w.
Smith, together with the Topeka post,
opposed this, and the project was
abandoned. The Taft hackers then
signified their intention of having the
speech made at Kansas City on Me-
mortal day. The action taken today
is the reply to this move.
Past Commander P. H. Coney of To-
peka made a spirited speech and
called for a vote, which unanimously
condemned the proceeding. National
Commander Adams then made a
speech in which he said that neither

United States could 'desecrate the

said. THE sanctity of Memorial day
among the Grand Army of the Re-
public and the patriotic people of
America must be respected"
In Topeka Lincol post of the G.. A.
r. registered such a strong protest
against the dissertation of the day
sacred to the memory of the men who
welded the nation together" that the
local committee in charge of the Taft
speech here gracefully withdrew their
proposal.
1t was pointed out at the joint meet
ing of the Topeka post of the G. A. r.
and the local committee of the League
to Enforce Peace that speeches such
as it was proposed to have Taft make
here are prohibited by law on Decora-
ton day in all parts of Kansas. The
local post of the G.. A. R., in register
ing their protest, refused to be drawn
into a discussion of the attitude of the
post toward the proposed league of
nations.
At the time the matter was under
consideration here the officers and
members of the local post declared
that the effort to stop-the Taft speech
in Kansas City would be made.
