as the community church in Buckhorn,
Kentucky, has done; it can, erect a

rooms has room where mothers may
rock their babies to sleep and leave

FINDING VAST FIELDS
FOR INSPIRING WORK

Several rural churches of Ohio are
cited in an editorial in the Country
Gentleman as example of what coun-
try churches can do along the lines
of community cooperation and better
ment. The editorial says:
The rural church can do as did the
Methodist and Presbyterian churches
of Bellona, New York, which united
to form farmers club where discus
sions on the marketing of farm pro-
ducts, the preservation of the soil and
on all country problems take place,
led by Cornell University professors
and other specialists; it can minister
to the social life Of the toiler on the
farm and especially Of the young peo-
pie, like the Harmony Methodist pro-
testant church of RayenWood, Missou-
ri, where among other organizations
for community recreation there is a
brass band of twenty-six pieces; it car
cultivate the aesthetic life of the coun,
try, like the Conner Congregations
church in Allen county, Ohio, which
has for years emphasized the impor
tance of the best music, and where
chorus of between fifty and one
hundred voices can be assembled; i
can use it's influence to foster bettel
public schools like the Presbyterian
church at Rock Greek, Illinois through
whose initiative three districts hav'
come together in a consolidated schoo
which has largely checked the exodu
from the countryside; it can stimu

CHAUTAUQUA ADVANCE
MAN ARRIVES

Beginning this week, Chautauqua
will be the all-important topic in Me-
dina. The first advance representa-
tive, Kris Messner, has arrived and
started an advertising campaign that
will continue until the Chautauqua is
well under way.
Tickets for the weeks program
have been delivered to the local Chau-
tauqua committee and may be secured
at number Of central locations. The
fact that the price remains the same
$2.2O, including war tax, is by no
means an indication that program
standards have been lowered, for
every assurance is given that this
season the Chautauqua is to exceed all
previous records for popularity.
The tuneful light opear, "The
Chocolate Soldier" is to be heard in
addition to the many other star
features Of Chautauqua week. This an
nouncement was made by Mr.. Messne1
at meeting with the local underwrit-
ers of the Chautauqua. There will be
a cast of thirty people and the play
will be presented as a first-class the
atrical production.
In addition to "The Chocolate Sol.
dier," Chautauqua patrons are to heal
more than fifteen other star attrac.
tions, including Sibyl Sammis Mac
Dermid, dramatic soprano; Captain
Paul Bewsher of the British All
Forces; the timely American drama
'The Melting Pot" Katharine Ridge

and Henry A. Adrian, the Burbanl

GEORGE MUST HAVE

GIVE CHAIR-oMIT SPEECHES

The usual ceremony attendant upon
such occasions was missing Monday
when Lakey J. Flickinger relinquished
the office of county clerk to Geo. G.
Frazier. Nevertheless the retiring
clerk was presented with the usual
farewell remembrance-a chair.
A speech and other doings had been
arranged for, but Monday is busy
day at the court house and it was
impossible to get the officials as
sembled. Two or three finally got to-
