Every citizen In the community
should be acively interested in
this Chautauqua becaute it pro
vide! a program that would be a
credit to a city many times aa
large aa thla one.
It gett people into the habit of
coming to town and then makes
them glad they came.
It will contribute to the moral,
intellectual and social growth of
the community. It will promote
individual thinking. It will present
the kind of clean, wholesome enter
tainment and inttruction your
young people thould have and
therefore will make them better
satisfied with their home and tur
roundingt. It will tend to curb the detire
mott young folk now-a-dayt have
to crowd to the big city inttead of
remaining at home where oppor
tunities are to much better.
It it character-developing, and
it cotta each individual but a few
centa.
An Easy Thing to Decide.
There are sixty -five Redpath-Horner
Chautauquas on what is known as a
5-day list, and sixty-eight on the 7
day list.
Our 5-day Chautauqua is propor
tionately quite as large as any of the
7-day Chautauquas, the only material
difference being in the length of time.
But it was not until a year or two
ago that it was ever thought possible
to manage a Chautauqua in towns of
500 and a 1,000 population as is being
done this summer on a most extensive
scale by the Redpath-Horner people.
It is the site of the organization that
makes this possible.
A band has been brought all the
way from Italy not for this one en
gagement, but for sixty-five.
The towns are arranged in almoat
perfect order so that Jumps can be
made conveniently and economically
and each attraction appears on a dif
ferent platform each day.
The exceptlont to thlt rule are very
rare.
This plan makes a varied program,
because tbe talent 1b different each
day.
There it mote crowded into these
five days than was presented to the
average Chautauqua of from seven to
ten days a few years ago, before
SYSTEM came into the Chautauqua.
And everything Is of a high-class
character a featuYe the Redpath
Horner people have insisted upon
since their firat Chautauquas were
started six years ago.
A season ticket and a good crowd
has been assured by the local business
men makes the cost of the Chautau
qua about fifteen cents a number,
which is cheap enough.
The cost need not concern you
seriously.
The quality of the program is un
questioned.
The question of going is a mere mat
ter of deciding whether or not you care
for a good time that will be of benefit
to you.

It Has Never Been Written.
There is no question but that Dr.
Cathell's lecture on "Lincoln,"' which
is to be heard here Chautauqua Week,
is the greatest lecture on the life and
the work of Abraham Lincoln that has
ever been heard.
Dr. Cathell is a minister of the
Episcopal Church who has won a
national reputation on this one lecture
alone.
He was born and reared within a
few steps of the White House at the
time of Lincoln's administration. He
says that as a lad he has sat on Lin
coln's knee many a time; that his
father and the President were great
friends.
"I came to. love Lincoln," he says,
"almost as I loved no other man. And
these boyish impressions have stayed
with me. My lecture has never been
written, I have only spoken It. It
seems as if it is jutt a part of me."
In places where Dr. Cathell has
previously presented his Lincoln lec
ture he may select some other theme.
He Is a great lecturer who would
be heard with Interest on almost any
subject he might chose to speak upon.
He Believes in the Young Man.
One of the big lecturers to be here
"hautauo.ua Week is Chancellor Geo.
H. Bradford of Oklahoma.
Dr. Bradfcrd's remarkable rise in
the educational and religious world
is a notable instauce of the achieving
of success by hard work and persis
tence. He had a very meagre chance. He
paid his own expenses in school and
then went out to accept the pastorate
of a mission church in a large city
located in a neighborhood that was by
no means "desirable" and ottering op
portunities that were by no meant
encouraging.
Today, be is a great, powerful man,
one of the great leaders of the Metho
dist Church and a leader In education
al affairs.
His subject has not definitely been
announced, but his favorite theme It
the young man, in whom be has an un
bounded conftdeuce.
