CHAUTAUQUA WILL
BRING FINE TALENT

The tenth anniversary program ol
the Ellison-White Lyceum and Chau
tauqua Association gives promise oi
being one qualified to properly cele
brate this 1922 season-the tenth yeai
of Ellison-White service in the west
The dates for the chautauqua are June
80 and July l, 2, 3. and 5.
In bringing the much discussed com.
edy, Turn to the Right" to this city,
chautauqua is helping materially ir
fulfilling its mission of community up
lift, for, paradoxieal as it may seem,
this great play is also II powerful SER
mon that is welding an influence for
good wherever it is given. 1t is the
play of plays for American audiences
or audiences anywhere, in fact. 1t
strikes home with everybody, for it
has to do with the redemption of a
rather wild youngster. through the in
fuence of an old-fashioned Christian
mother. It's the sweetest, most
wholesome play of a decade and the
Keighley Broadway Players will give
splendid Interpretation of it with an
exceptionally fine cast of players.
The lecture list this year is particu-
larly attractive, for the names of some
of the best known and ablest platform
stars of America add the finishing
touches to program that literally
sparkles with really interesting, worth
while features. The Importance and
the worth of strong lecture list was
never more clearly emphasized than in
the letter from President Harding
written in October last, calling upon
the chautauqua lecturers of America
to cooperate with him in the develop
ment of a sane public opinion in
America. Ellison-White seem to have
caught the spirit for they are sending
group of noted men and women, with
interesting, instructive, inspiring, and
yet sane, messages of vital import.
Chancellor Bra1ford's lecture ap-
pearance is in itself a noted event.
He is one of the brainiest, ablest and
most eloquent speakers in America,
and he will give his great classic of
the chautauqua platform, ''This Way
Up." Also should be mentioned, Ar
thur Walwyn Evans, admittedly one of
the lecture stars of the modern plat
form, sane, scholarly, brilliant; DR..
Lydia Allen DeVilbiss. noted New
York physician, is to discuss '"The
Business of Living" and Harold (Pri-
vate) Peat will give Introducing
Your Neighbor," a lecture full of
sparkling wit and sound common
sense.
The entertainment and music list
features some fine attractions that will
make their initial bow to western aud
fences this season, and which will un-
doubtedly win for themselves the un-
stinted praise which has followed their
recital in the east. Chief among these
should be mentioned the Steelman-
Marriner-Taylor Trio. noted group of
eastern artists; the New York City
Concert Quartet, one of Americas
very finest; the Jugo-Slav Tambur-
leans, a distinct and most delightful
novelty in the orchestral line; the Bat
ting Mailer Duo, entertainers; A.
Mather HiIburn, wig and grease paint
artist; Margaret Garrison, dramatic
interpreter.
The electrical entertainment of the
Glenn L. Morris Company is another
unusual feature which promises to be
interesting. In fact there
are so many good things in store that
it is indeed difficult to pick on any one
attraction for especial emphasis. A
"real assembly is promised and the
open air theatre will indeed be busy |
place for six big, joyous days.
