Benefits Of the Chautauqua.

Miss Mildred Clemens, cousin Of th'
late Mark Twain, ia introducing thu
American Chautauqua system into tho
British Irlar, in tho hope Of forging
another link between tho two great
Fnrish-speaking peoples.
I'VE arc anxious to introduce the
Chnutauqun movement into England and

efforts 10 cement international relation
ships by means Of lecturers, trained reals,

cynical might even say that she may
make more money than international
cement. Perhaps so, but when one recalls
the growth and spread Of the Chautauqua
movement in the United States, and OBJ
serves the slow but certain benefits which
arc accruing, one may predict that Miss
Clornens' Efforts will be not entirely in
