er in the state of North Dakota. He
has been very successful in organiZ-
ing community clubs in that state
and many communities have built
community houses, places where the
people from the country can find rest
rooms when they come to town, and
where the people of the town can
meet for recreation, etc. His work
is not confined to North Dakota. His
reputation is now nationwide, and
he is called on to come into cOmmun-
titles all over the nation to spread the
gospel of optimism. Morris is for
tunate in getting him, and it is only
because the two days were not booked
that we were able to get him at this
time.
AS an orator Karr has few equals.
A striking personality, a magnifi-
cient voice, a magnetism seldom seen,
with a message for every man and
women, all combine to make him one
of the greatest men on the lecture
platform today. Plan to hear him
the first day. If you do you will hear
him again if it is within the range of
possibilities.
There are no politics or propagan-
da in any of his talks.
