CHAUTAUQUA PROGRAM BRINGS
BRILLIANT ARRAY OF TALENT.
OPENING NUMBER ON SATURDAY

The galaxy of artists that has been
assembled for the 1922 Ellison White
Chautauqua. which opens here Satur-
day night, is one that should put the
show over bigger and better than ever
in the opinion of Earl Mott, advance
man, who is making arrangements for
the opening. With a widely diversified
program, there is not a number that
should be a disappointment to the most
discriminating taste, he said. Such lee
turers as Opie Read. eminent writer
and philosopher: DIR. Elmer Lynn Will
liams, known as the fighting parson.
and such musicians as Frances Ingram
Metropolitan opera star, and the
Oceanic Quintet are sure to make the
Ch~autauqua a success, Mott believes.
The Junior C~hautauqua. to which
every morning will be devoted, will be
under the direction of Miss Altavene
Cochran. who will be assisted by Miss
Helen Hill and Miss Annabelle Rodgers
The program is to be a pageant, The
Conquests of Peace" This will be his
torical and will show victories that
have been won by peace throughout his
tory. The pageant will be presented or
the last day Of the Chautauqua.
Paul Fleming and Co. will give the
opening performance on Saturday night
at 8 o'clock. Their offering is IAN
Evening of Magic" and contains all the
mystery that makes the charm of an
entertainment of its sort, with the ad-
ditional attraction of sound. scientific
instruction in a little understood sub
ject.
Frances Ingram and the Stearns-
Helleksen trio are the artists who will
be heard Sunday afternoon and eve
ming. This, according to the advance
man. is to be a musical event that will
be remembered. The work of this
group has been praised by no less a
critic than Charles Cadman. the ia
nous composer. Miss Ingram will be
presented Sunday night and will be as
sisted by the trio. As q member Of the
Metropolitan Grand Opera company,
she needs no introduction to the pub
lie. Mott declared her to be one Of
the foremost artists of the age. with a
voice that will never be forgotten by
those who are fortunate enough to
hear her.
As a professor in charge of the phys
ical education departments for two
leading universities, Edna Eugenia
Lowe gives the public some real and
valuable information in her lecture, !
Danger Signals on the Road to
Health" which will also be presented
night.
Refreshingly original was the way in
which Mott summed up the offering of
Brothers. who will be heard in
a unique musical offering Monday aft
ernoon and evening. Norman Allan
Imrie will lecture on Working To-
for Billions" Monday night.
This lecture is an enlightened and illu-
minating discussion Of many of the
vital. problems Of the day by q
is that friendships are better
than battleships.
The Oceanic Quintet will occupy the
stage Tuesday afternoon, giving a pop
ular concert that is sure to 60 over

These artists will appear again in the
evening. supplementing the lecture of
Opie Read, known as Americas kind

duets and Dresden shepherdess cos
TUNES that make their offering delight
full and unusual. according to criticisms
from cities where they have
appeared.
'Cappy Ricks," a dramatization of
Peter B. Kyne's famous Saturday Eve
ming Post story, will be presented by
The Percival Vivian Players Tuesday
night. A real American atmosphere
and a quaint and homely philosophy
make this play one that has a uni
versal appeal. It had a record run at
the Morosco theater in New York and
Electra Plat and Vernon Stone. mu-
steal comedians, will be the feature Of
the program Wednesday afternoon.
There are some real, wholesome laughs
in this offering. according to Mott. J

partnAent of public speaking at the
of Washington, will give
