CHAUTAUQUA HAS
NEST EGG FOR
ANOTHER SEASON
About $500 Left in Treas
ury for Next Year; Gordon
Gives Fine Lecture; Pugh
Unable To Be Here.

The closing afternoon perform
arce of the Redpath chautauqua in
Albuquerque was presented by Lii
Ian Sellers and Reulah Marty,
who entertained with violin. piano
and vocal selections, and by Frank
Elwood Gordon. lecturer and hui
morist.
Miss Sellers and Miss Marty gave
a variety of selections on piano
and violin, and the former enter
tanned with numerous clever
pianologues. Most notable among
these was one entitled "The Usual
Way"
Mr.. Gordon's lecture was a
forceful appeal for the preserva-
ton of the unity of the school and
the home. He pointed out that in
This day and age there is tend
ency on the part Of mothers to neg
4ect their children, and to leave
them TO the teaching Of nurses and
the care of governess. There
is" said he, mo greater science
than the science of the nurture or
children. You parents. should en-
courage in the home everything
that will lead to better citizenship.
Civilization and national great
ness are founded in the home
Domestic science. as taught in
our schools today, should be sup
ported and encouraged. asserted
Gordon, for on the basis of a full
stomach is the man of the house
made happy. If the young wife
bakes the biscuits so hard thai
they would make good croquet
balls, don't you growl, young hus-
band tell her the truth. hold the
biscuit before her, and say, well
done, wife. well done.
"ln far too many Instances the
only tie between parents and chill
dren Is that of food. clothing and
shelter" said the lecturer, and H.
is because of lack of sincere UNI
outstanding between parents ana
children that 50 many children
stray from the paths that you,
parents, would have them follow.
The whole lecture was a plea for
the home, the teacher and the
school, and Went straight home TO
the hearts of the audience. The
talk was interspersed with poetry
and c.ever stories. Applause
stopped the speaker many times.
At the final performance last
night Jess Pugh, who was sched-
uled to entertain the large audi
ence which was assembled, was
prevented from being here by the
serious illness of his son. In his
absence Miss Helen Waggoner en-
tertained her hearers in amusing
fashion She showed herself to be
q reader and impersonator of great
talent.
Misses Sellers and Marty, who
took part in the afternoon enter
tainment, also contributed to the
evening presentation.
Mr.. Casey. of the Redpath-
Horner company announced at the
close of the final entertainment
that there was an excess of more
than $500 left in the treasury over
and above the amount guaranteed
by the local peop4e who took the
responsibility for financing the
chautauqua. This sum OF money
will remain in the treasury, ana
will apply on the securing OF the
series of entertainments next year.
1t is assured that the next year
series will last seven days, ana
will include the best talent the
chautauaua can offer. This is the
fifth successful year that the
chautauqua has come to Albuquer-
que and the people who guaran-
tced the money necessary for Sc
curing the series are worthy or
the thanks of the community.
