CHAUTiUQUA OFFICERS ARE
SELECTED AT KEYPORT

KEYPoRT, Aug. 24.-Omcers of
the Chautauqua committee were
elected at a meeting held at the
home of Mr.. and Mrs. Charles S.
jerks of Front street on Monday
night, when the Chautauqua organ
izer, Miss Muzzy, was present to con-
duct the meeting and assist gener-
ally in making the preliminary ar
rangements. Professor w. e. Bid
erback was elected temporary chair
man and the officers for the per-
manent organization are:

ME Laurie Tilton.
The Chautauqua will be held at
Beach Park through the courtesy OF
the Keyport Recreation Association
in a tent to be provided by the
Chautauqua. 1t was unanimously
voted that any surplus be given for
the fund now being raised for the
purchase of Beach Park as a public
playground. Should this project not
be carried out the surplus will be
donated to the community nurse
fund.
The C~hautauqua course amounts
to $3.50 which has been assured by
twenty guarantors from the borough.
Special features will be given here
not on the program which will in
clude an address by DR.. Savary of
Indiana, the first day instead of j.. r.
Layton and DR.. Daniel r. Hodgdon

Considerable enthusiasm Is being
shown over the fact that Keyport is
to have its first Chautauqua course
and already tickets have been sold
and are on sale at the business
houses, from the guarantors and the
officers. With the opening of school
the school children will sell tickets
and the committee is expectant of
clearing a large sum above expenses
to donate to the fund for the pur-
chase of Beach Park.

carrying everything before 1t in all
of the cities where it is presented
this season.
Irene is so entirely different
from any musical attraction ever
offered before, That it has a value
so distinctive and separate IRON
anything else in the musical comedy
line, it is hard to describe.
AS Shakespeare said: 1.-THE plays
the thing"
And this is so of this wonderfully
magnetic offering.a If there were no
musical numbers to be heard, and
there are at least nine distinct song
hits in the score, Irene" would still
be a big drawing card, for it tells a
most pleasing story in the most
happy manner, and is as interesting

until I got 10 the point where my
suffering was almost unbearable. for
even the highest of foods would
cause me pain. bloating and short

Gus headaches that almost set me
wild. Ny back hurt so bad it seemed
that I would break in two when /

But i certainly is wonderful the
way Tanlac has restored my health

my three bis meals every day agree
with me perfectly. All my strength

Other Editors Than Ours
IN THE SPIRIT OF SERVICE.
tBy DR.. William Il. Barton.)

When the community hires a soldier 1t says TO
him, Your first duty Is give your very heart and
life TO the spirit of patriotic service, and
try will feed and clothe you, take of you II you
sick and when you grow old, and bury you de-
Gently when you die; and you TO stand ready TO
face danger or death for the common good"
When the community trains 10 be physi-
sian, says:
"You are to be paid a fee for your service but
not TO work for your fee you TO be
ready TO go, whether by day by night; you
not TO shrink from the personal danger of con-
tagion from the exI osure incident to wind and
storm; hope your fees will yield a living and
perhaps something more. but you first OF all a
servant of the community"
When the community trains teacher or min
lister. it tells him that ne can nev,r be rich. and
take upon him of poverty for the sake of
great ideal: but that he will probably be sure OF
daily bread and small retiring fund.
BY what rule OF ethics or of sound economy is the
farmer the miner. the manufacturer or the
merchant to assume that he has right think
primarily Of his own compensation, his own &C

How can such man look the soldier or the doc
tor or tho teacher or the artist the minister in
the face. and say:
II contribute by taxation or voluntary contribu-
ton TO your support but you and are on a wholly
different basis and lives be ordered by
wholly different ideals?"
There IS such line OF demarcation between the
oricklayer and the school teacher between the sol
der and the shoemaker, the minister and the mer-
chant. The rule OF service belongs every
man and mothers of them.
one man is 10 make brick for the glory or God

more in money than the school teacher; but the
