3-DAYS’ CHAUTAUQUA
IS NOW ON IN FULL
The big tent for the Chautauqua
here was erected on the school
grounds on Monday and yesterday
afternoon the Versatilians, a trie of
young ladies, gave a very good ren-
dition of song and music. In the
evening Dr. Poole’s illustrated lec-

many being obliged to stand. To- ©
day Brush, the magician and De-
Marco entertainers, will, we feel
sure, please all who attend. The

Thursday will be Dr. Geo. P. Bible’s
discourse on “Fads and Extremes”
and last but not least, the National
Four, an unusual quartet, will close
a most successful chautauqua.
