Fine Numbers
for Chdutauqua
LECTURERS INCLUDE MANY
STRONG SPEAKERS; ENTER
TAINMENT FEATURES GOOD.

The annual Chautauqua season in
Redwood Falls will open June 28th
and close with the evening program
July 4th. That the speakers are esq
pecially strong and the leading enter

tanning is the conclusion to be reach
ed by a careful reading of the follow
ing description of few of the many
numbers to be presented here.
Honorable Ed. T. Franks, associat-
ed with Secretaries Hoover, Wallace
and Davis on the Federal Vocational
Board, is of the dynamic forcefuI
type. He comes direct from Washing
ton with a great message and hits
straight and hard. Mr.. Franks will
talk on National Development
through Vocational Education"
Congressman Homer Hoch, is,
without doubt, one of the three or four
really great orators in the House of
Representatives at the present time.
Son of Ex-Governor Hoch, noted as
orator and. Chautauqua lecturer, he
has on his own account achieved an en-
viable record. Congressman Hoch
will give his inspirational lecture,
"Uncle Sam and His Folks"
DIR. l.. Nj. Doreen of the Jackson
Boulevard Christian Church Kansas
City, Missouri, will talk on "The Bull
wark of the Nation" DIR. Doreen is
one of the leading pastors of his
church, a great organizer and great
pulpit orator. DIR. Doreen is one of
the most eloquent orators that ever
graced the American pulpit magnifi-
cent, clear strong voice, perfect enun-
citation. Any community will be bet
ter and happier after having listened
to DIR. Doreen.
bob Finch, business man, scholar,
lecturer, has been the standard by
which the popular Chautauqua lectur-
er has been measured for several
years. Always town booster, always
saying something worth while. His
lecture on Shifting Gears" will be
one of the high spots of the whole
series of entertainments.
Somewhat out of the ordinary, and
for the first time presented i'm the
West, will be the Style and Dress
Show, as presented by Mrs. jose
phine Dominick in her lecture on "a
Woman's Woman" Mrs. Dominick
has pleasing personality and fine
voice. Her illustrated lecture will
probably draw one of the largest aft
ernoon crowds of the whole season.
'Prof. Arthur MacMurray, for ten.
years head of the Dramatic Art De-
partment of Kansas University, read
er, lecturer, poet and philosopher wilt
give you just the type of entertain
ment that will fill out a great week.

in the whole group. Each one rang
ing high in their particular field, and
each one worthy of commanding the
attendance, attention, and respect of
the best people of every community.
'The Gypsy Rover written by Ed
win Riley, taken from the dramatic
sketch, The Butterfly from the book
by the same name, written by John
Lang, is one of the most sparkling
Operas on the American stage.
"That the Gypsy Rover will be pre-
sented by an exceptional cast is evil
denced by the fact that Madame Orm-
erod, who will sing one of the leads
was with the English Grand Opera
Company, later with the Sheehan OPP
era Company, and was also soloist with
the Chicago Philharmonic Orchestra.
Helen Ladd Warren, soprano, studied
in New York two years and in Europe
one year.
George BrantIey Riley, the man
ager, was associated i'm stock in New
York City and both William Brady
and William Ward, two of the great
est producers of the county. The
other members of the cast are equally
capable. The Premier Concert Com
pany will present The Gypsy Rover
at night and Madame Butterfly in
the afternoon, and in addition, will
give splendid prelude of the best
in light and grand opera, with few
sacred numbers"
