If The Tribune has helped the Chautauqua as so many have told us, it is only fair to say that the merchants by liberal adver tising have made it possible for us to do so. Those of our peo ple who arc interested in the success of the Chautauqua owe their patronage to these mer chants and should pay the debt.

The paper says: “The chief feature of last night's band concert was the ren dition of a composition by W. C. Yutzy, the director of the organ ization. The selection was the third number on the program. It was a gavotte entitled, “Philena.” The piece has a decidedly pretty movement, a catchy air and is rich in harmony.

There have been requests that the number be repeated at next week’s concert.” To the Ladies Mrs. C- McCay wishes to say that she is better prepared than ever to do all kinds of hair work.
