forts for individual and national
thrift and progress.
1t is after all really matter of ed
ucation, which reminds us of the con-
clusions reached by our old-time
friend, Lowe Shearon, who spent
some years undertaking to solve the
industrial problem. He thought he
had at last found cure for the cor
rection of unearned increment. He
was going to ask that Iroprietors of
industrials be required by law to
state in advance rate of compensa-
tion as do bondholders and security
holders, governed by the earnings of
the year Immediately preceding ad-
justment. This was submitted to his
friend and patron, former President
Hadley of Yale, who advised Mr..
Shearon that the solution of these
things is not in legislation but in ed
ucation, and so our friend became
reconciled. 1t is not strange that
Mr.. Shearon, who has spent some
thirty years in the newspaper game,
should become interested in the sub
ject. Any man impelled by humap
interest would do the same.
There are too many laws and legal
restrictions. Moral principles cannot
be legislated into the human family,
and in a government based on human
liberty there is no way to reconcile
the existence of blue laws and the
regulation of responsibility between
capital and labor except by such
things as DR.. Hurts message and kim
dred means of bringing the subject
to the people.
THIRD DAY.
On the third day of the chautGuqua
the morning hour entertainment was
enlivened with an interesting recital
by Kathleen Scott and Catherine
Denny, both young girls who appear
ed in sketch work of characters from
story books.
In the afternoon was the artists"
recital, by Irene Stolofsky and COM
pany. Miss Stolofsky revealed the
fact in her work that she is really an
artist. She is known as brilliant
violinist, and she gave substantial
evidence of the fact that she is en-
titled to the term. There were more
numbers in the afternoon program
for Miss Stolofsky, and there were
some very delightful selections, in
cluding Chauncy Olcott's old success,
believe Me if all Those Endearing
Young Charms" the very rare COM
position in harmonics, and some 9TH
ers with harmony effects, but it re-
mained for Miss Stolofsky to prove
the real artistic skill and musician
ship that is in her work. The audi
once of the afternoon, rather small,
was made up largely of children and
a sprinkling of adults. So therefore
she was not heard to best advantage
until artists night. Miss Stolofsky an
nounced her own numbers. Not be-
ing familiar with violin music we
are not able to quote the compost
tions, but the one standing out above
all the rest came just before the
Scotch bagpipe closing number 1t
was a classic, like some of Wagners
compositions, scaling the heights and
depths, at one time weird, another
soft. the storm and calm and every
phase of expression on that instru
ment which is all but human in the
hands of an artist. In this compost
ton there were also the variations in
harmonics, but the most interesting
of all was the work of two hands in
the various motives
Of the composition. 1t seemed that
Miss Stolofsky wasn't willing to leave
until she had favored the musical
people of Union City with the best

Now we come to one of the real
reats of the chautauqua. This is
he entertainment by Sidney Landon.
