Chairs Greet 9Th Annual Chautau-
qua in Smyrna-Sale of Tickets
SMYRNA is in the midst of its annual
nautauqua. The big tent of the
ssutauqua Association of Swarth-
we, Pa, was pitched on the High
\ xhOOl Athletic Field near Frazier
rset and with ideal weather condi-
ns enthusiastic crowds have been
\ attendance. There however, is not
4 attendance this yeal as in former
ss, due in large measure to a
a b of interest especially among
farmers. The sale of tickets as a
suit fell nearly two hundred dollars
BIT of the $1,000 guarantee to the
sutauqua Association which the
8ryrna guarantors must shoulder. As
Re are about two hundred and
Nv guarantors, the assessment on
b one is. only nominal. Another
sOn for the falling off in sales of
#Eets was the withdrawal this year
strip" tickets. This hit the farm
more than it did the town people
as they could not be induced to
b season tickets, the result was a
IS to the guarantors. The program
far has had two substitutions. DR..
IsTOlyn Geisel, who so delighted a
Inyna audience the last time she
rs here, was unable to be present,
living been obliged to discontinue all
n engagements on account of illness.
