League of Nations and Freedom Of
Seas to Be Discussed-Five Days
of Entertainment and D0Wn-to-the-
Minute Features.
A clean, modern play, entitled 1T
Pays to Advertise" the Dunbar Sing
ers and Bell Ringers, the Steely Con-
cert Company and the Lombard En-
tertainers; great timely lectures
these are but few of the attractions
of the 1919 Redpath Chautauqua
scheduled to appear here. The entire
five days program is replete with
features Of compelling interest.
'The League of Nations" "The
Freedom of the Seas" and other
down-to-the-minute topics, each finds
a place in the discussions Of the week,
thus keeping up the reputation of the
chautauqua as a powerful factor for
enlightenment on public problems.
The Dunbar Male Quartet and Bell
Ringers will be the attraction on the
opening afternoon. For many years
a Dunbar Quartet and Bell Ringers
company was one Of the most pop
ular of chautauqua and lyceum or
CARNATIONS. The present company
was organized by Ralph Dunbar, Of
the original bell ringers, and is most
worthy to bear the Dunbar name,
The members Of the Dunbars appear
in solos, quartets and readings and
carry $50 hand bells upon which are
played some of the best overtures and
solo numbers. In order to secure an
especially high quality of talent the
singers have all been given a four
year contract. The Dunbars will give
a prelude at night.
"America's Today Cleaned from
Yesterdays Over There" will be
the subject Of the opening night lee
ture by Elwood 7. Bailey. Mr.. Bal
ley as welfare worker overseas
spoke to several hundred thousands
Of our soldiers, both in the fighting
zones and in our camps. In his lee
ture he tells the story of the return
Of the American soldier to his coun-
try, the readjustment of the soldier
and, the problems which confront each
and all todav
Extraordinary costumes, some of
them imported from Japan, Chinese
chimes, something never used on the
chautauqua platform before; a re-
markable onesstringed cello and a
gypsy camp fire setting are few
novelties which make unique and
compelling the program Of the Lom-
bard Entertainers, who rive a full
concert on the afternoon of the sec
ond day and a prelude at night.
This company consists of Harry Lom-
bard and Leila Fairchild Lombard, his
wife, and their work is replete with
good musical material given in an en-
PERTAINING and delightful way.
At night O. E. Behymer (Bee-high-
mer) Of the Sheldon School of Sales
manship, Chicago, will lecture on
"The Romance Of Business" AS pre-
sented by Mr.. Behymer, business is
one of the most enhancing adven-
lures, an enterprise Of vital interest
to every man, woman and child. This
is a lecture which everyone interest
ed in making success in life should
hear. Following his address Mr.. Be-
hymer will answer any questions sug-
gested by his lecture,
The Steely Concert Company, con-
sisting of Mr.. and Mrs. Walter Steely
and their 18-year-old daughter, Err
lynne, will be the attraction for the
third afternoon and will also give
night prelude. For more than IS
years Mr.. and Mrs. Steely have been
delighting big audiences everywhere
with vocal and instrumental special
ties. Besides being possessed of ex-
cellent voices they all appear in piano
and marimbaphone selections. Also
Mr.. Steely plays the saxophone and
concertina. Miss Steely is cartoon
list as we'll as a musician, and her
drawings constitute a feature of the
program.
DR.. Vincenzo de Santo, noted Italian
journalist and orator, who appears
on the third night, will discuss amone
other world topics the problem of the
league of nations. He will also tell
Of the astounding spirit Of modern
Italy. DR.. de Santo speaks English
perfectly. He is a contributor to
magazines and newspapers, both in
the United States and Italy, and his
lectures are based on a wide know
ledge Of this and foreign countries.
It is at once apparent that DR.. de
Santos lecture is one Of the big fea-
lures of the week.
DR.. E. T. Hagerman will lecture
on "The Man With One Window" on
the fourth night. For 20 consecutive
years DIR. Hagerman has appeared
as lecturer on the lyceum and chau-
tauoua platforms and "The Man with
One Window" is considered to be the
strongest address of his career. DR..
Hagerman has a message and he
presents it in a clear, forcible, pleas
ing manner.
On the afternoon of the fourth
day the Artists Company will give
a concert of vocal and instrumental
music of exceptional merit. The
same company will give a prelude
at night.
At night, on the fifth day, the
side-splitting American comedy, ut
Pays to Advertise" will be presented
