Aug. 7 —(United Press) —Re assuring statements from Washing;or and London have by uo means,satis ’Jed Japanese public opinion that Am mean naval maneuvers lire Pacific are not in the nature of a military gesture by the United States. Japan still feels keenly the hum la tion she suffered through the immigra tion law and many observers see ir th® naval maneuvers a silent demon

Holding of the naval maneuvers "not long after the auti-Japancse im migration law by Congresa was extremely unfortunate", says the Osaka Main chi one of the most powerful ot Japanese dailies.

VaT CHAUTAUQUA FOR LECTURE RECITAL . .MW 7 .i ■ DO you occasionally feel blue and think the world's against you, and say what's the use? It you do. hear Arthur Holden's lecture, "Take the Sunny Side." This is a lecturerecital of irresistible humor, sound philosophy and common sense. When the program is over the bluest, most despondent individual in the community will be able to smile and "take the sunny side.” Mr. Holden has the happy faculty of seeking out in literature and in life the joyous and cheerful and using It to dispel gloom and discouragement. Everyone in the community should make a genuine effort to attend the Chautauqua when Mr. Holden lectures. A SURE CURE FOR THE BLUES

M -WO ;•* W 3K n ivvl? \ / n. ~ Scene From “In Walked Jimmy” IF you have a neighbor who hasn't smiled since the war broke out in Europe, bring him with von’ to the Chautauqua tent to see the play "In Walked Jimmy.” It he goes through the first ten minutes without expanding the muscles of his face into a broad smile, you may safely assume that facial paralysis has set in. Os course your long faced neighbor may emit a few groans before he smiles, but it will be merely because his smile muscles are getting an unaccustomed exercise. These groans will not disturb you, however, because you will have surrendered to the thorough enjoyment of this splendid comedy. CHAUTAUQUA ORATOR |v ■J "W , *■ » JOEL W. EASTMAN AMONG speakers. Joel Eastman is unique. His speech is not a reflection of other men's thoughts anti ideas, nor is his manner of delivery an imitation of other speaker s methods He is distinctly a thinker who builds a balanced and symmetrical superstructure of truth upon a foundation that goes far below the surface to bedrock. He commands instant attention by his evident strength of character and mind. Ho possesses a droll sense of humor which tightens ths most serious discussion. Audiences like the man for himself, enjoy his war of speaking, his original phraseology and are thrilled with conviction and enthusiasm because of his earnestness and evident sincerity. He has spoken in every state in the Union, in Canada and New Zealand, and always his hearers quickly discern the ability of the man to get at the heart of the problem he is discussing and appreciate his accurate and ccnvfdcing analysis.
