A number of our enterprising people have signed ar. agreement with the Lincoln Chautauqua people by which they are to present their splendid program. We are assured that this program is' of real merit, setting highest standards in all lines of Chautauqua endeavor. This will be an event to which our people will look forward with pleasure. Chautauqua week is coming to be regarded all Over the country as the “cultural week of the year,” and there is no doubt but that it will be of great value to many of our people who could not go elsewhere and hear the good things which the chautauquas, in our own town, places in easy reach of all people.
