A BROADER OUTLOOK
The Chautauqua Is Teaching
That Riches Do Not Consist
of Dollars Alone

When the people of the future
shall be far enough away from the
present to gain a proper perspective,
and when the history Of our own
times shall then be written, the
Chautauqua movement will have
a large place in the progressive de-
velopment of our modern ideals and
life. The marvellous material
achievements, the gigantic bitter
wars and struggles for commercial,
industrial and political supremacy
dominate and overshadow all else,
because we are in the midst of these
things. Life is now measured by
the abundance of the things which
a man possesses. The Chautauqua
movement stands in the relation of
the prophets Of old and still pro-
claims that the abundant life is one
filled with thoughts, feelings, hopes
and aspirations. To know the joy
and pathos Of human living and to
be sensitive to the beauty and glory
of the natural world, to live in
sympathetic and responsive rela-
tions to our fellow-men and to the
universe, this is what makes people
rich.
An audience sent away with a
smile or a tear, with more humane
sentiments and greater hope for
humanity and with a larger outlook;
that audience is benefited and is
also fitted for richer living. The
real values cannot be measured in
dollars.
Builds Community Spirit
The -Chautauqua movement is
also helping us to realize the posi-
bilities of community efficiency.
A thousand people working together
in a community effort is more than
a thousand individuals. There
arises what Bernard Shaw would
call a super-power because of as
ISOLATION. We have learned the
Importance Of organized effort in
warfare, we are just beginning to
learn the Importance of organized
effort in welfare. Many of our
modern problems can never be
solved by individual attack, and
most of them can better be solved
by community effort. A drop Of
water by itself seems impotent, but
drops of water combined into
Niagara seem omnipotent.
The Idaho Republican. [volume] (Blackfoot, Idaho) 1904-1932, 1919-06-17

Little Boy Blue come blow your
horn;
Chautauqua is coming, twill be
here in the morn.
There's games to play, stories to
hear,
The happiest days Of all the year.
The Idaho Republican. [volume] (Blackfoot, Idaho) 1904-1932, 1919-06-17
CHAUTAUQUA
RHYMES

There was an old woman,
Who lived in a shoe.
She had SO many children,
She didn't know what to do.
But she bought them some tickets
To Chautauqua one day,
And then all her troubles
Were taken away.
The Idaho Republican. [volume] (Blackfoot, Idaho) 1904-1932, 1919-06-17

with. She is one of us and doesn't
pretend to be anything else. She
pronounces "vase" so that il rhymes
with "face." Absolute naturalness
that is the secret of Elsie Mae
Gordon's unusual success. And her
representations are taken straight
from life. You'll say her Italian,
negro and child sketches are the best
YOU have ever heard.

1t is Of vital Importance to Ohio
that every voter shall be gotten to
the polls November 4 as there has
been no election for years that has
had as far reaching results as will
the election this year. 1t is just as
important that each voter shall
know how to correctly mark. this
ticket. To understand how to
mark this ticket, we must remem-
Der that the vets are asking that
these amendments be placed in
Ohio's constitution, to repeal
state porhibition, re-establish the
saloon license system and make
legal the unrestricted sale of any
beverage containing 3.45 per cent
or less of alcohol as commonly
computed. If you favor state pro-
hibition you must vote No on both
Of these amendments. You do this
by placing a cross mark before
the word No both places where it
occurs on the ticket. If you do
not favor state prohibition, but do
not want it made possible to have
places selling the old fashioned
village, hamlet and township in
Ohio, then you should vote No on
both of these amendments.
You will see by careful examina-
ton that the above ticket has for
it's heading Proposed Amendments
to the Constitution. And under
the heading in finer print it says
proposed by Initiative Petition).
Your attention is called to the
theading of this ticket because
there will be another ticket on the
wet and dry proposition that you
will receive on November 4. The
other ticket is commonly known
as the Referendum ticket and will
be explained and discussed in an
article appearing later in this
paper. PLEASE WATCH FOR
,, 1T. 1t is just as important that
you shall understand and vote
right on that ticket as on this one.

Revolvers more often than not, were the arbiters of disputes. The bar keepers armament lay on the oar within handy reach and in full sight of the perhaps too ebullient customer to remind him that there were limits within which he must contlne his cele- bration.
 Cowpunchers, after months on the prairies looking after cattle, free of restraint and their pockets full of money rode into town scarcely dis cernable in a cloud of dust, punctu- ated with the flash of fire and report of revolvers. Like a tornado they swirled up to the front of the saloon refined their ponies back on their launches and sometimes roda Tn through the swinging doors. These were profitable days for the barkeeper but he must needs be a dlplomat Il his place remained intact.

JAPAN HAS LOANED
 MILLIONS TO CHINA
One Authority Places the Total as High As S14s,ss5, 5,oo0-$66,6 ,616,-
 OG0 This Year.

Picking, Nov. 20, (Correspondence of The Associated Press. )----Japan's loans to China are estimated by the Tokio correspondent of one Picking newspaper to have attained 9, total of about $14S,8S5.00o, Loans from Japan contracted by China in the present year are placed at $66, 515, 900.
 The newspapers correspondent all leges that according to his informa- ton much of the proceeds of the loans contracted this year has been diverted from the stipulated purposes for which they were made and have been squeezed" by private persons or wasted in prosecution of the civil war He elaborates as follows:
 The loans of $25,OOO,0O0 con- tracted by the Bank of Communtca- uons nonainally for the purpose of effecdng reforms in the said bank did nothing to attain that end but, on the contrary, the value of the bank notes kept on dropping steadily. The proceeds of the Telegraph Admins tration loan amounting to $20,Oo0,- 900 were also recklessly squandered. The military loan also amounting to $20,000,00o, was contracted ostensibly for the purpose of participating in the European war by recruiting and specially training three divisions and eight brigades of troops. But the proceeds were used for prosecuting the internal war;
 Further loans in process of nego- tiations by China are estimated by the correspondent to amount to about S7o.00o.000. Of this sum about s5o.ooo.ooo Is intended for the pur- pose ot establishing iron works. "Ac- cordtng to the provision of the loan agreement the engineers and me- chaaics to be employed in these iron works must be engaged for the Chinese government by the Japan ese," says the correspondent.

Mercury rules this morning strongly

changes to adverse sway later in the

Il would seem that publicity is to be-
much discussed and to be investigated
where government activities are con

are to benefit.
Writers are subject to changing con-

thors. Higherl standards are to be de-
manded by editors and publishers, the
seers declare. for a period Of public
education has begun.
This is not a satisfactory sway under
which to enter into any written oon-
tracts. There is a sinister sign read
as menacing TO those who sign leases
Dissatisfaction among farmers owing
to some trade condition is forecast.
Uranus Is In a place today supposed
to foment discomfort and encourage
MISREPRESENTATION and deceit
Warming is given that the stars pres
age frauds in the handling of public
funds. These win be cleverly managed
but they will be uncovered in more
than one state.
The rising position OF Neptune con-
Joined with Venus Is not good for the
morals of the people.
Danger menaces the King OF Italy, ac-
cording TO the reading of the stars, and
he may suffer personal violence.
Saturn in Virgo is likely to bring
troubles to Switzerland and the West
