I PLANNING FOR A BIG CHAUTAU- i QUA NEXT YEAR I (Continued From Page One) City Counselor” and will carry out the program outlined by Mr. Christopher of the Central office through the schools. The Junior.city officer* who were elected at the Chautauqua this year will carry out the programs through the schools, in both the pub-1 lie and parochial schools. Tho junior department is ona of the real features worthy of support. Through the programs g ven. the children arc taught good citizenship by play and the desire to bo good boys and girls and leaders in the community. The junior department alone is worth having, separate from the Chautauqua. Many Tickets Sold During the closing days of the Chautauqua here 328 season tickets at $3.00 each were pledged by the patrons. Dr. Fred Patterson then started out and within the last ten days has secured pledges tor another hundred tickets. It is hoped that at least 600 tickets can be sold before the Chautauqua opens next year thus assuring the financial success of the undertaking and at the same time create a profit, which will be turned over to the Civic Section of the Wo-

man's Club. Dr. Patterson, Rev. Thompson, Raymond Hatting and ' others will solicit more tickets and signatures ou tlje guarantee agree-) rnent this week and those who wish) to get on the band-wagon are asked to do it now. The guarantors this year suffered a loss of $4.00 each, but no one is' down-hearted and those who contri- j buted towards the giving of the en-| tertainment feel well repaid in view' of the splendid programs and the enjoyment afforded the hundreds of! people who attended. A Chautauqua J can be made a great thing in a community mid those who are at the head . of it this year intend to make it such j in 1925.
