Form at Pilot Rock


PILOT ROCK June 24.--The Chau-
tanqua closed here Saturday evening
after three days OF delightful enter
tninment. II was a decided success.
The interesting and inspiring lectures
we're what made the Chautauqua real
ly worth while and the eve of vision
was opened to many through the mes
sages OF these able speakers Even
little children will long remember.
Many of them will never forget Miss
Florence Il. Besley Red Cross nurse.
who urged of them TO be clean ply
sically. why and how to fight the fly,
and the mosquito, the most dangerous
OF all insects, In order to protect their
own lives and the lives OF their ba-
by brothers and sisters.
From financial standpoint 1t
would perhaps not be considered a
success as the receipts, were a little
short and the deficit had to be met
by the guarantors whose names au-
Peared on the contract II took only
short time, however, to secure the
, names of or more of the progress
sive businessmen and ranchers to sign
again and Pilot Rock is to enjoy n
Chautauqua again next year.
