OPEN ON JAN. 10
Big Event for South Amboy
to Continue for Three
Days

SOUTH AMBOY, Jan. 13:-South
Amboy's Chautauqua, to be held
January 10, 20 and 81, will bring
before the public the finest pro-
gram of it's kind ever presented
here. With the famous Russian
Cathedral Quartet furnishing the IN
itial musical program, and the two
following days marked by the Re-
cital Artists Company, the College
Singing Girls, George II. Turner and
Elliott A. Boyle, not to mention the
Junior Chautauqua stunt Party"
it is certain that the Chautauqua
will go "over the top"
Owing to the fact that the high
school auditorium had been previ-
ously engaged, it has been found
necessary to hold the opening days
Chautauqua in the auditorium of
the First Presbyterian church on
Broadway. On Friday and Satur-
day. however, the Chautauqua will
be presented in the high school
auditorium.
The Chautauqua was arranged
for South Amboy by thirty-six local
people who recognize the worth of
a Chautauqua to the community to
such an extent that they guarantee
the financial success of the affair.
There are six programs presented,
one in the afternoon and n in the
evening of each day.
In the afternoon of the first day
the program will be opened by DIR.
E. f. Miller, Chautauqua superin-
tendent for South Amboy, and the
musical entertainment will be fur
nished by the Russian Cathedral
Quartet. This quartet includes the
noted basso p%rofundo Mikhael Ba-
taeff, soloist with the Sinodalny
Choir in Moscow, who had just been
engaged to sing the leading roles
with the Russian Imperial Opera
in Moscow when he accepted the Of
fer to come to America as a men,
her of this quartet. In the evening
| the Russian Cathedral Quartet will
| also entertain, and George II. Tur-
| ner, the noted Chautauqua orator,
| will deliver his lecture Toward the
Goal"
The Recital Artists Company, with
| Miss Joy Babcock, Miss Eta Rob
| ertson and Miss Marcella North, will
appear the second day. and the lee
ture will be given by Elliott A. Boyle
upon The Advantages of a Handi
cap" The third day the College
| Singing Girls will offer selections
| from grand and light opera, popular
| songs. and the happy-go-lucky songs
of college life. The junior stunt
party" of course. forms a most
| pleasing part of the last days pro-
gram, introducing many local chill
dren in a costume pageant.

VII. AERIALS AND HOW TO INSTALL THEM

One of the greatest advantages of
wireless telephone receivers is that an
elaborate or expensive aerial is not
required. Although good sets with
vacuum bulb detectors may be used
with an indoor aerial, or even with
a bedstead or wire springs as an
aerial, yet an outside aerial will al
ways give better results. As have
already mentioned, single wire will
do as well as several, the main thing

o think over what Mr.. Har-
to say about the relations
sat country today with the


f the woriCs During the
pass those relations from
time to tim6 have not been of the
best. We have had trouble with Mex
leo, war with Germany, war with
Austria, near-trouble with Japan and
after the war was over our diplomat
ic relations were far from the best.
The great loans to foreign countries
have been a bone of contention and
many things have led some to believe
that our international relations were
far from perfect. But not so, for as
President Harding said at Marion:
"'IN OUR INTERNATIONAL RE-
LATIONS ALL IS WELL. THEY ARE
SECURER TODAY, WITH MORE AS
SURFING PROSPECTS OF PEACE
THAN EVER BEFORE IN THE HIS
TORY OF THE REPUBLIC. New
guarantees have recently been add
ed, by the very process of exchanging
viewpoints, and bringing the spokes-
men of great nations to the confer
ence table and for the exchange of
views, and to resolve to do together
those fine and nobler things which no
one nation can do alone.
''It is true, children, that although
we have made agreements with other
nations looking toward the day when
peace will prevail throughout the
world, we have not once lost the Am
erican ideals to which this country
was committed by It's founders. The
United States has broader viewpoint
toward the world today and instead of
losing our ideals we have 'been able
to impress them on the rest of the
world.
