COMING AGAIN NEXT SEASON
Guarantors VIII Doubtless Make the
Same Arrangements That Were
Made This Year to Bring Redpath
Again to the DimpIe.

.s.a g. " ~
That the people of Columbia and
Maury county enjoy and appreciate
the Chautauqua was evidenced last
night when practically every one in
the largest audience of the week rose
and voiced approval of the program
that had been rendered. The question
was submitted to the audience to de-
termine whether or pot certain public
spirited citizens would be justified in
making the guarantee necessary for
the return next year. Almost without
exception the people rose.
That the Chautauqua will be
brought back for 1921 is practically as
sured although the number of tickets
subscribed Friday night was far short
of what will be necessary. However,
another effort will be made tonight
and it is probable that the guarantors
will with additions made to their
ranks, make the same arrangements
for the coming year that were made
for the past. Unquestionably it was
the almost unanimous Voice of the
patrons that, this YVES thee best pro.
gram that was. ever,rendered by Red!
path in this city The cost of the
season ticket is so small that the mar
vel is that more of them are not sold.
The benefits of the Chautauqua and
the appeal for its support was made
by w. Andrew Dale. who has labored
for several years as a guarantor. He
explained why it was necessary to
have guarantee.
The number Friday night. Nothing
But the Truth" had been truthfully
described as a scream from curtain
to curtain. 1t was one of the most de-
lightful farces ever presented to the
people of Columbia. 1t was present
ed by a company of stars. Every
member of the cast did the part as
signed with credit. They were all
good and the audience was in an up
roar from the time the farce was
staged until the expiration of the pc.
riod within which 1t was necessary to
tell nothing but the truth. The farce
presented fine moral, too, as it il
lustrated how many ills beset the man
who would try to present always and
under every circumstance sthe naked
bald truth. Feelings were hurt. domes-
tic complications were made and mat
tiers more tangled even that when we
practice to deceive"

WASHINGTON, D. C., Dec. 30.-(R Major General Thomas H. Barry, U. s. A., retired. died at his home in this city today at the age of 64 years. General Barry was one of the best known of the ranking American army officers and only re- gently went on the retired list
 He was formally commander of the central army department and later of the eastern department with head quarters in New York. He trained the S6th division of the national army for overseas duty and tried with every means in his power to accompany it to France for active service It was one of the greatest disappointments of his army career when he was de- nied that privilege. His physical con ditiOn was such that the army medi- cal authorities refused to pass him for active service.
