PROGRAM
Enlightening Talks by Earl c. Kill
Patrick, OF U. o. o., Auto Camp
Supt. DOran and Prof. Vining, In
terspersed with Music and Dancing

The forum luncheon held at the
Hotel Ashland at noon today was one
of the best attended In many months.
There were 100 members of the
Chamber OF Commerce present TO
hear the address of Earl c.. Kilpat-
rick, and the other speakers of the
occasion.
A delightful musical program was
rendered during the luncheon by
Miss Ward and Mesdames Short
ridge. Fuller and Elmore, and
graceful rendition of the well dance"
was presented by Miss Velma Clapp.
Mr.. Doran, the manager of the
auto camp grounds, was asked to
make short talk regarding the
camp grounds. He suggested, among
other things, that ii would be fine
thing II 1t were possible to install
a radio telephone set at the grounds
or in the park, in order that music
which Is broadcasted through the air
in the early evening could be heard
by all who cared to listen. He also
suggested the throwing of stereopti-
can views on a screen in the camp,
showing the many points of interest
around Ashland.
Following Mr.. Doran's talk, Prof
l. E. Vlning very fittingly introduced
Mr.. Fitzpatrick, whose subject was
1.-THE Disaster Test" founded on his
observations Of the flood at Pueblo.
Colo, last summer. He told of the
terrible conditions which arose when
the Arkansas river spread from a
normal width OF about 200 feet to a
stream two and q half miles wide.
within six hours, and of the wreck,
age that was found following the re-
cesson Of the waters.
The part that he especially en-
phasi2ed was that the people of that
city responded nobly to the task
that was thrust upon them almost
without warning. There were those
who, at moments notice, leaped to
the rescue and did all in their power
to help, but who were absolutely
out of place when an organization
was finally completed and could not
work in conjunction with other peo.
pie.
Mr.. Vlning made the closing talk
and crystallized the remarks of Mr..
Fitzpatrick as they applied to eondi-
ions existing today In Ashland. He
laid stress upon the necessity for
organization in getting
behind the big things in formation
lere as typified in the possibility
If securing a great hotel and sani-
arlum. He pointed out the neces-
iity OF every individual getting be-
lind the project to the end that Ash
and might go forward to the
achievement of its destiny as the
