PROGRAMS. PROVE PLEASING
EACH DAY-CONTRACT
SIGNED FOR 1925

Chautauqua closed it's six day en-
gagement Tuesday night-"Joy Mite
with Mcdonald Birch and his artistic
magic. Mr. Birch entertained and
amused his audience with a line of
original tricks and effects and fun
making stunts. The evening was up
to the high standard set by this years
talent which was good enough to call
out the general opinion that this
yeaE's chautauqua was the best ever
held here.
The 12 programs were made up of
four lectures, two plays, three mus
ical companies, magician, a clown
and the junior chautanqua.
The comedy dramas, Six Cylinder
Love and The Mollusc, were played
by genuine artists and were certainly
the best spoken dramas ever given in
the city. The lectures were of great
inspirational and educational value.
Each one of the speakers told some
truths about our country,
its people and institutions, as well
as touching on other countries. Some
of the closing passages of DR.. HUI
bert's address on Japan and Korea
were couched nmarvelously grace
full and eloquent English. Every Am
erican in our land should hear Mr..
Bagdigian, the Armenian-born Amer
lcan land his views on citizenship |
and our naturalization laws.
The musical numbers were all so |
good that it would scarce
y be fair to pick any for special /
praise.

Sympathize With Patch
But Vote For SchnitzIer

in the hope of working up SYM
pathy for Jack Patch and drawing
votes to Poplar's candidate for the
senate, The Poplar Standard runs a
hard luck story under the two-col-
umn head "Patch Met Adversely
With a Cheerful Smile"
The inference is that the tawpay-
ers who found their county debt-rid
den their treasury at lowest ebb,
after Jack Patch had served a few
years as county commissioner, are ex-
pected also to smile at adversity and
vote to send Jack to Helena
A man with Jack Patch's record
in public office should be glad to be
left alone in retirement. Of his own
choice probably he would prefer re-

A WARNING

of the city have the habit of catch
onto cars and other vehicles when
they are in motion. Thi sis a very
dangerous practice, and there is a
strong possibility of some child los

Parents should make a special point
of impressing upon their children the
danger of catching onto cars. After
an accident has occurred is too late
to give the warning. Talk to your
child today.

Golf is game of changing
thoughts and shifting theories.
Once YOU were supposed to
put all the power into a shot
with your left hand. Today it
is the right which provides the
main force.
They used TO tell you the
club head preceded the hands
by q matter of inches in driv-
ing from the tee. Slow motion
pictures show that tho hands
actually precede the club head.
In days gone by the run-up
approach was considered the only
practical way to get close to the
pin. Then came the bunkers and
multitudinous traps. Now II you
can't play high pitch approach
to the green you are all out OF
luck.

ONE OF the big disappointmsnts OF
" 1898 to Manager Bill KIIlefer,
Of the Chicago Cubs was the poor
showing OF Pitcher Osborne. Banked
on to be big winner. he had bad
year.
During the latter part OF the 1922
campaign. Osborne appeared TO have
arrived with vengeance. He won
nine out OF IL games and his great
pitching In the city series with the
white gox enabled the Cubs to win
one Of the few triumphs they have
ever scored over the Chicago Amer
leans.
Such finish caused Bill Killefer
to believe that in Osborne ne had a
worthy running mate for Alexander.
For some reason. Osborne couldn't
get going last year He seemed 10
have the stuff, but couldn't win. His
showing for the year was eight VIC
sories against Is defeats.
Killefer hasn't lost confidence In
Osborne. He Is hoping that years
