NEW TICKET SCHEME.
Continued from Page j.

that fifty guarantOrs are secured for
contracting d return engagement OF
the SwarthmOre Chautauqua for the
year 1928, do hereby make the following
local agreement among ourselves as
EuarantOTs:
4. That a committee of six persons
shall be created to have general over
sight of the ticket sale and publicity.
,. That each guarantOr shall receive
from the committee his share of the
Chautauqua tickets at least ten days
before the opening of Chautauqua.
g. That each Euarantor shall act as
sales agent, or provide a substitute agent
for the disposal of his share of the
tickets at the established price
4. That two days before the open
ing of Chautauqua, all unsOld tickets
shall be pooled for a closing ticket can
vass. The committee shall district the
town, and assign districts to all guar
antors, or substitute agents, and execute
a thorough canvass of the town.
.. That each guarantor shall stand
any deficit in proportion to the number
OF unsold tickets which he has turned
into the pool
Sc That all nsold tickets shall be
destroyed on the afternoon that Chau-
tauqua opens"
Such an agreement, Mr. 'Chaver stated
last evening. seems to have this merit
over the arrangement of last year.
that it places responsibility for the
ticket sale and publicity upon a small
workable group, instead of uDOn an I'M
wiedly number of guaTantors; that all
{ ckets viii be on sale at an early dat"
that those who work hard and sell their
tickets will be freed from financial re-
sponsibility, while those who do not eX-
ercise initiative will pay in money, if
not in work; that the community will
be canvassed by district only after each
guarantor has been free to. exercise his
initiative IN getting rid of his tickets !;
that it makea sure that no one viii re-
frain from buying a season ticket in the
hope that there will be some unSOld
tickets floating around free at the open
ing of Chautauqua; finally, that inter
est will be increased and financial risk
lessened by having 30 guarantors rather
than 30. The committee is confident
that there are at least so citizens of
Brattleboro who believe in Chautauqua
sufficiently so that they will bend every
energy between now and the closing Of
of guarantors.
The members of the committee, who
viii carry through this drive for a re
newal Of the ChautauqUa contract are
George J. Perkins, chairman; Will
Smith, ID. W. Felch. J. u. Bushnell, F
! Fairbanks, and Rev c.. c. Chavez.
Thew desire to secure as many signers "a
possible by Saturday night and request
that all interested parties cooperate
with them by indicating to some member
Of the committee their willingness to be-
come a guarantor.
