As far as we can find out from the
ticket sellers on both sides of the big
Chautauqua ticket selling contest, the
two sides are neck and neck, so if you
want to see your friends win, rally to
their aid and assist them in this con
test.
AS usual, in our ticket selling, a
good many of the people wait until
a day or two before the opening of
the Chautauqua before buying their
tickets, and the same things is true
this year, but as the friends of Chau-
tauqua have always gladly and will
lingly given their support to this most
worthy enterprise, we have no fears.
When the opening number is announc-
cd next Saturday the guarantee will
have been met, and our Chautauqua
will not cost your friends and neigh
bors anything except their tickets of
admission.
So rally to your friends, whether
Red or Blue. Rally to your Chautau-
qua and support the thing you know
to give the most TO your money that
you can possibly get.
Think of hearing nine professional
New York actors in that great play
