Old Time Dance And Field Day

The old time dance and field day
given by Mr.. and Mrs. Dolph Hook
on Onion Run, was a grand success.
An old timer of so years ago would
hardly have noticed the few
changes, automobiles, bobbed hair,
effect of the 18th amendment, and
"old Ben Savage fiddlin' there" On
account Of threatening weather a
great many failed to come, but
there was large crowd at that ia
the afternoon; and in the evening
standing room was at a premium.
/ The long distance and rs yard dash
was won by Francis Stewart, and
the married mems race by Jess
Boles of Stockport. This was the
exciting race of the day. Henry
Johnson and Boles were neck and
neck until the last few feet, Boles
winning by a hair. Charlie Jackson,
official time-keeper. reported time
being 8 3-5 seconds. Horse shoe
pitching by Harry McFerren, the
kid race by John Conn, and the
guessing contest by Mrs. Henry
Johnson; best two hops and jump by
Jess Boles; clog dance by Lew Sher-
lock, and the oldest couple who
danced, by Mr.. and Mrs. Walter
Burdine, this prize being SIS in
gold. This was the largest social
gathering ever held in this COM
munity. eye old time spirit"
caught them all, and they danced
the old time dances in the log house
that accommodated 20 couples
dancing at one time.

CHAUTAUQUA JUBILEE
1874-1924
(By Isabel Bozman) }

| Just at this time, there are many
anniversaries, memorials and alum
nj gatherings, each carrying our
mind to things that have been, both
| joys and sorrows.
Fifty years ago Chautauqua was a
geographical name designating a
lake, township and county of
western New York Today it is a
common noun, which has made its
way into many lands and languages.
For eight weeks beginning June
| 26 and closing August "A, there will
! be presented over 800 carefully con-
sidered programs, which will follow
| in the main outline, established
habits of so years, and emphasize
the achievements of the past in
pageants and reunions. Important
lectures and addresses will include
tThe World of Today" American
Battlefelds in France and Belgium"
Theodore Roosevelt and his Birth
place" "The Biologists View of
Life" and American Statesmen"
Literary reoitals will be given by
six we'll known artists. One of these
has said IF there is one fact in re-
gard TO my verses, of which | am
proud, it is that they have been
danced" OF concerts there will be
many. The yearly performance of
Handel's oratorio, 1.-THE Messiah"
will be rendered July 90. One night
is given to the community for play.
All Chautauqua will be in the
amphitheatre, on shore or at the
lake. A real joy time, with illumi
nations and red lights
The pageant of past, present and
future, with costuming and realistic
historical episodes, will be Aug.
and 2. plays the thing" nova
days. The Redpath players with a
caste of New York actors will pre-
sent the sparkling comedy "Give
and Take and the fantastic comedy
Smiling Through" But we are
looking forward to the Marion
ettes". The oldest plaything in the
world, the acting doll, doing all the
things that live people spend their
best energies, trying to do, on the
stage, and doing it much better.
In Red Riding Hood the frothy
mouthed greedy old wolf thought hes
saw just the finest meal, a hungry
wolf ever did find, but we hope to
see all these happenings. A number
of years ago we had a play written
Morgan County Democrat. (McConnelsville, Ohio) 1886-1943, 1924-07-03

for our enjoyment and including al
legorical characters impersonating
the spirit of the lake, also an In
dian encampment, the arrival of the
French, with dances by both peo-
pies. The story as told by Indian
tribes in that part of the country, of
placing the muskellunge in the lake
and how the name Chautauqua
arose. To further amuse and enter
tain there will be acts from the
"Play House" of Erie and the play
ers Club" of Jamestown.
While this up-to-date lighter vein
is being arranged, there will be
many class celebrations. Of these
we are most interested in 'S7, and
have the costume to represent a
graduate of that class. With so
much there is still around you the
atmosphere of study. The summer
schools are in full swing, teachers
taking advantage Of this opportunity
to freshen up, or advance in some
special line. We forecast one of the
most attractive seasons for many
years. Not the least of attractions
will be class '82, now elderly people.
Among these is DR.. Jessie Hurlburt,
a Methodist minister and for years a
Sunday school worker and author of
Sunday school helps, and one who
each year gives lectures on the Holy
Land.
BY the side of the lake is a model
of Palestine, with cities, rivers and
mountains Here we follow the
speaker as he moves from place to
place telling of the happenings as
given in the life of the children of
Israel or life of Christ. Here also is
held a lake side service on Sabbath
evening. AS the sun is setting, a
song, a short talk and the wonder OF
the view and crowd is worth the
whole value of a trip to Chautauqua
The audience lettering, standing or
sitting, as they listen, is sometlI4n G
to dream about. 1t is like Jesus by
the sea of Galilee. Even the bright
dresses are almost oriental. So will
you come and see, or hope for news
after the season opens.

The Home OF Thomas Jefferson

The memory of Thomas Jefferson
has been so often evoked during the
last three days at Madison Square
Garden, that delegates, visitors and
others as we'll should find interest
in the announcement that the second
hundred thousand dollars has been
raised for the purchase of his home
in Virginia, Monticello, which he
built and in which he lived and died.
Three hundred thousand dollars
must still be raised to complete the
purchase price, and another $780,
600 is wanted as an endowment fund
to keep the property in good shape.
When Jefferson died 98 years ago
the property remained for a short
time in the hands of his heirs. Later
it was bought by Commodore Levy,
from whom it passed to his nephew,
who died a few months ago. For
many years there has been a move
ment to acquire Monticello. Some
sought to have the government take
it over. Others wished to buy it
from Mr. Levy. Last June, shortly
before his death, contract was fl
nally entered into for the purchase
of the property by the Jefferson Me-
mortal Foundation. The first pay
ment was made last December.
There is a double interest in this
purchase-the value of perpetual
ing one of the finest historic spots in
the United States, and the tribute to
the memory of great statesman. 1t
is as the champion of democratic
government and of the rights of the
individual that Jefferson is now
justly famed In his own day he was
greatly admired as one of the most
versatile men America had produced.
Interested in the arts, in farming, in
he was an architect of distinction, a
phrasemaker of unusual power, a
lover of classical literature, an ad-
vocate of scientific" farming, the
builder and patron of a great univer-
sity, diplomat and a politician of
amazing ability. A great sower of
ideas, he phrased the aspirations of
the liberals of his day, and what he
then planted has borne fruit. Few
men have exercised so great an in
fluence over their countrymen during
long life of public service.
Mount Vernon has been preserved.
The Hermitage, where Andrew jack
son lived and is buried, is in the
hands of patriotic society. Through
the efforts of the Roosevelt Memorial
Association the birthplace of Theo-
dore Roosevelt has been rebuilt. But
until the creation Of the Jefferson
Memorial Foundation, Monticello
was privately owned. 1t still re-
mains to take over and make a ma
tional shrine of the Hamilton
Grange, in which Jefferson's greatest
rival and bitterest enemy once lived.
Such historic houses should be per-
manently preserved for future gener-
ations.-N. Y. Times.
