CHAUTAUQUA WEEK
DRAWS BIG CROWDS
"six Cylinder Love- Feature Event
of Program Ticket Sales
Go Over

TO over
The opening number of the Chautau-
Greene entertainers, came as mild
prologue to the evenings performance
which was to captivate a record audi
ence. Having had great deal of trou-
BILE in disposing of the season tickets
the committee in charge was by no
means pleased with the situation up
to the opening day; for, with the ma
jority of the tickets still on hand, this
little body of boosters began to feel
that the epicureans load was to fall
on their shoulders But as is always
the case, the patrons wait until the
last minute to procure their passes and
then swamp the poor venders in hopes
of not being left out. So when the
first day was over and a majority of
the load was lifted mutual satisfaction
permeated the community and all turn
ed out to express their relief Sunday
evening.
A cleverly acted, and quite approp-
riately written little comedy was the
production, s1Six Cylinder Love-" as
given by the Elias Day Players on the
evening of the opening day. Dealing
with the injustice done to hard work
ing father by an unappreciative fam
lily and adding thereto the trials and
expense of our common four-wheeled
luxury, it was possible to make the
heroes climb through such a labyrinthe
of troubles as only an automobile can
create. The audience was thoroughly
pleased with this performance and re-
sponded freely as the night wore on
On the second day a musical pro
gram by the Going Bell -Epperson Com
pany, combined with the two lectures
of DR.. Homer B. Hulburt, were treated
artistically and knowingly. DR.. HUI
burt, who was resident of Korea for
twenty years, portrayed vividly the
jap menace to this and other civilized
countries and soundly argued that we
must expel japanese immigration.
The Vernon Symphonic Quintet Of
fered delightful prelude, Tuesday
afternoon, to the inspiring lecture OF
DIR. H. Leo Taylor, prominent boy
psychologist, on "Give the Boy a
Chance. DIR. Taylor built his talk
around the Importance of the boy as
the future executive of the nation,
hitting out the necessity of building
a foundation in the boy capable OF
supporting the massive developments
which the future had in store. The
evening gave musical concert OF the
Vernon Quintet, supported by Frank L.
Cowan, eminent American tenor. AS
evidenced by the applause which this
program received it was big hit and
will be remembered by the lovers OF
classical music.
Bagdasar K. Baghdigian, an Armen-
ian born American citizen, delivered
powerful lecture, Wednesday after
noon, evolving from his experiences in
Armenia and the present-day influ-
ences that little country has in inter
national politics. The second big play
of the week followed on Wednesday
evening when the Carke Brown Players
put on the pleasing comedy drama,
1sTbo Kfo1lusc >, The story surround |
ed the home of man whose wife was
SO undeniably lazy and unwilling to
in the domestic and business
affairs of the household as to WIN,
from her brother, the very fitting
name of Mollusc. All who saw the
play speak favorably of the perform
ance and vote it as one OF the out
standing features of the week.
Today the Australian Artist THO
will be heard in an elaborate musical
recital to be followed in the evening

Window by DR.. E. 7. Hagerman-
The Australian Trio is equal to It's
