Saw and Were Pleased With World in Chicago.

Rev. and Mrs. Parrett,' Mr. and Mrs. C. W. Duvall, Mr. and Mrs. John I. Gwin, Mrs. E. E. Flint and Harold, Mrs. Thos. Moore, Mrs. M. J. Burr, Mrs. A. P. Burton and Miss Minnie Schultz formed a “World in Chicago” party Monday and attended the great pageant at the Coliseum in Chicago.- They were joined in the city by Mrs. F. J. Sears and Mrs. Ruth Dewey. All were greatly pleased with the visit and say that no person should fail to attend the remarkable representation of religious forms in foreign countries and learn of the missionary work being conducted in foreign' lands. The characters are largely missionaries familiar with the customs of the countries represented and a student can spend several days at the Coliseum and enjoy instruction and environment almost equal to a trip of months in distant lands.

Rev. Parrett is especially enthusiastic in his endorsement of the pageant and believes that all Rensselaer people-should see it. The performance will continue for five weeks, this being the second week of its stay at the Coliseum.
