retirement and the blgnal to pull down
the flaps of the tents and guard the
wall tents against shadow moving
pictures that are made by the electric
lights , a "family" close to 100 strong ,
will look their last upon the beautiful
chautauqua grounds they have called
"homo" for more than ten days. Con
stable A. W. Kinkhause will ring that
signal boll and after ho is assured
that all of the chautauqua family arc
tucked away behind the mosqulti
bars In safety he will roll his gooi
natured body between heavy qulHs li
his tent and give a mournful sigl
which will mean that he has "lost tin
best job of the year. "
The chautauqua this year has beei
a great success. The attendance ha
been about the best and It Is believ
ed the chautauqua company will n
longer care for a guaranty. Manage
Gose is jubilant o\er the season'
work and declares Norfolk getting bol
ter every year. His work has bee
pleasant , he says , and the "family
has been well behaved.

The "family" are the Inhabitants o
the \arlous forty-one tents now on th
grounds. In each tent there are n
least two people and sometimes , who
"visitors" have come , there have bee
counted as many as ten.
There Is "system" among the "fan
ily" and there Is "regulation. " Coi
stable Flnkhouse calls It "order" hi
the "family" declared It "fun. "
"There has been more of an Info

ever attended , " says Manager Gos
"It has been like one big family ar

The "men folks" unwillingly leave

Very few of the men leave after

tvord Is passed that the "lights out"
jell will ring. Chairs and pillows arc
nustled into the exterior. I3eds arc
nade ready and the flaps of the tents
are closed. One by one the lights go
out and after the echo of the good'
night has drifted over the Xorthfork
Ivor Into the green fields beyond , the
