BOYS AND GIRLS

What a great happy week we have
planned for you this year. There
will be new games that you have
never played before and new stories
too from the Story Lady. We are
bringing big basket balls, play
ground balls and bats and volley
balls. And the finest lady is going
to spend a week with you-a lady
who knows how to play all the new
games and how to keep you happy
all the time.
We are not going to have any
pageant this year but on the last
day we will have an exhibition and
you can show father and mother
how many new games you have
learned and how we'll you can play
them.
The lady who comes to tell you
stories and to teach you these games
has been away at college studying
all about stories and games and
working on the Fairgrounds in the
big cities. She likes children and
you will like her very much.

THE BIG PROGRAM

Even if you are going to have a
busy happy time all this week at
your Junior Chautauqua you must
not forget the many fine things you
can see on the big program. You
know your season ticket admits you
to everything and you may as well
go. Some day you will be the
grownups and be running the Chau-
tauqua so you should know all
about it.
You will want to hear the Mac
Oregon Singers on the first day and
see the beautiful pictures Marion
Ballou Fisk makes that night. Then
you will surely want to be in the
big tent on the third day to hear the
Overseas Orchestra. These young
ladies were over in France last year
playing for our soldiers. You will
like The Regniers on the fourth day
too. They bring you lots of fun
and good music.
You will enjoy the lecture that
same night very much. DR.. Price
has some wonderful pictures of
bears, wolves, seals, whales and all
sorts of wild animals, which he has
brought down from Alaska and he
will tell you all about hunting in
that far-away land.

A WORD TO PARENTS

For our Junior Chautauqua this
year we are departing from the
pageant idea of the past and we are
bringing to your community a week
Of playground work.
We have employed Capt. T.
Dinsmore Upton, formerly Superin-
tendent of Municipal Fairgrounds
in Grand Rapids, Mich, and later
Athletic Director for the U. S.
Army, to plan this work for us.
Capt. Upton is a recognized au-
thority on recreation and he has
provided a week for your children
that will be helpful to them and
packed full of enjoyment.
We will carry regular playground
equipment in the shape of volley
balls, playground balls, basket balls,
etc. Games have been arranged for
all ages Of both boys and girls from
6 to IA years.
To the story hour too we have
given special attention. We have
placed lthis department under the
direction of an authority on child
stories and she has arranged stories
of unusual interest for the children
of all ages.

BUSINESS AND THE
ICHAUTAUQUA
Trade Journal Says Business is
More Than Stores and
Stocks of Goods

"Any business man is proud to be
able to say: We have a good
Chautauqua in our town. because
the Chautauqua is recognized as a
symbol of culture, high ideals and
broad thinking.
"The Journal has said again and
again to it's readers that business
real, true, fundamental business
consists of more than stores and
stocks of goods, manufacturing
plants, railway systems, and whole
sale plants. After all, the very
foundation of all our business is the
men and women in it, and when
these men and women have been
aroused and inspired and lifted up
and made to appreciate themselves
more fully, and to recognize their
own individual responsibility, that
community has been bettered."

SEVENTY ACRES
OF CANVAS
Ellison White Largest User
of Tent Equipment in
the Country

When you see the big brown tent
at Chautauqua try to visualize an
immense field of almost seventy
acres covered with canvas and you
will have some idea of how much
equipment is used by Ellison-Whi
on their various summer circuits in
the United States, Canada and in
the South Seas.
Tent companies credit Ellison
White with having more canvas
than any amusement concern of any
kind and more than twice as much
as any other Chautauqua bureau.
We have total of fifty-nine tents
and in June and July forty of the
big khaki tops are up every day in
forty different towns. The side-wall
and fence, if connected together on
all this equipment would stretch
over seven miles and the main guy
ropes a dozen miles.

ABROADEROUTLOOK
Chautauqua Teaches 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
The Kendrick gazette. [volume] (Kendrick, Idaho) 1892-1968, 1920-05-28

things. Life is now measured bv
the abundance of the things which
a man possesses. The Chautauuua
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-
lions to our fellow-men and to the
universe, this is what makes people
really and truly rich.

WHAT CHAUTAUQUA MEANS
Verse by d. H. E. of Canada upon the occasion OF e rs'
Chautauqua in certain Alberta to'On)

l know now what Chautauqua means
did not know before,
That word stuck in my "palate,"
And l "chewed" it DER and DER.
To "masticate" was not my fate,
digest" was out of question
Until Chautauqua came to town
And cured N.Y. indigestion.
Chautauqua means an annual feast,
Of good things, rich and rare
A "festive board" from life's great store
A mental "bill of fare"
The most fastidious appetite
Can be appeased with ease,
No course upon the "menu" card, &C.
But what is bound to please.
Laughter, until you ache with Joy,
Wisdom and wit unite
Humor and fun join hands as one,
Recruiting hearts delight
Expand your chest with welcome jest
And Danish care-worn issues
No tonic like Chautauqua night
To build up weary tissues.
There's intellectual treats and "sweets,"
Co-mingled with the "spices"-
There's serious flights and lofty heights
Mixed with your tea and ices
Mind, heart and soul as one great whole
Is tuned, toned and enlightened
With dance and play and music gay
Chautauqua week is frightened.
Take it from me, I've been to see,
I've got the proper "dope,"
do not pirate or speculate
On what merely hope.
For young and old, for mind and soul
Verbose or quite laconic-
Humanity in each degree
Should get Chautauqua tonic.
The Kendrick gazette. [volume] (Kendrick, Idaho) 1892-1968, 1920-05-28

Fay Epperson, whistler, reader,
child impersonator, is a most YER
satile entertainer. She is credited
with being one of the best i'm
personators of children on the
Chautauqua platform. Unquestion-
ably she has reached this place of
prominence because of clearly living
the life of the characters she pre-
sents. She knows and understands
the child from every angle and with
the unusual talent she possesses she
makes the child live before you.

An Extinct Species.
From jackson Progress

The country weekly newspaper, if pres
ent tendencies continue, will soon be as ex-
tinct as the dodo.
Costs of production have been piling up
so heavily and so steadily of late that the
average newspaper cannot stand the strain
indefinitely Under the governments slid
ing scale postage has come to be an i'm
portant item of expense, and will be more
important after the first of July, when an
other increase goes into effect. News print
paper is costing anything the mills ask The
old prewar price was around three cents
pound The Progress-Argus has received
an invoice for a shipment of news print at
111a cents a pound.
There are other increases, ranging from
labor and materials to Increased rates for
electric current
Unless the government comes to the aid
of the small newspapers and takes over
the supply and distribution of news print
paper ultimate bankruptcy is the only So
luton. The big city papers are able to
buy all the paper they want at any price.
They are able because they receive good
prices for their advertising and run their
affairs on strict business principles.
Not so with the weekly newspapers.
Over half of them have slip shod methods
of doing business and do not know what it
costs them to operate their plants The
average country editor is long on public
spirit, patriotism and charity, but short on
business judgment when applied to his own
affairs. The weekly press has been ridden
to death by the government and other
publicity grafters. Strange to say some of
the papers still fall for this stuff. Some
of them would print the kaiser's autobiog
raphy-if it were only supplied them in
plate" form. Yet, some of these same
men are the loudest takers at the pres
conventions and are prolific in advising the
other fellow how to run his business.
If the weekly newspapers are to survive
at all they must get down to rock bottom
business principles, eliminate the free pub
licity stuff quit working for honor and
glory and patriotism and charge a decent,
living price for their advertising and sub
scription. The advertiser who is not will
ing to pay living price for his county
paper is a fool for the want of brains and
the paper can get along without that kind.
The advertiser who is not willing to pay
a fair price for advertising space in his
home paper will soon have no home paper
and then will be victim of the mail order
houses.

YOUR DUTY TO DAWSON.

The citizens of Dawson are face to face
with a situation that no one having the
interest of the city at heart ca" afford to
treat lightly When out of town capital
seeks investment here sound business sense
makes it imperative that we meet the con-
ditions necessary.
In the matter of the proposed new hotel
everybody admits that such a building is
one of Dawson's greatest needs. Through
the efforts of the Chamber of Commerce an
old Dawson boy, a native of the city, Mr..
J. S. Farnum, has very generously agreed
to take half of the capital stock, amounting
to $4,000. If one man, an outsider, has
enough faith in the enterprise to make such
heavy investment surely it should be an
easy matter to secure from the well-to-do
business men of our prosperous city the ad-
ditional $4,000.
After such inducement as is offered in
this former Dawsonian's liberality to his
old home town for property owners, who
are vitality interested, to show a spirit of
indifference would certainly give the city
a black eye.
If we are eyer to make strides toward
bigger and better Dawson we must strike
now while the iron is hot.
