the world, right In our own city. Mr. Woodward, representing the Redpath Musical bureaj, is confident that the citizens of Gary will joyfully accept this unusual opportunity tor hearing these artists in recital. "No city In the United States will be givtn better programs next Winter than Gary," he said. "No city of the same limitations as to population will have the same opportunity because we have never found It practicable to book their appearance except in the large centers of population, fiut Dr. Ellis, who Is the superintendent of yuor Chautauqua here, had reported that the people of Gary have so appreciated the

programs given, and have shown such a delight In the musical numbers that our president, Mr. Hirrison, has instructed me to placo ;he opportunity for having: the recitals before the people of your city. The wonderful development of your school system and the evidences ot culture and refinement in your city as shown by the large audiences at the Chautauqua sessions has permitted us to discover that your city is far beyond the popular Impression of being merely a great manufacturing city. The residential portions are the most beautiful to be found anywhere and it is to be regretted that the whol world does not

know Gary as she really is a veritable queen of home cities. "Our president wishes to demonstrate to you that we can ' give you the most delightful musical entertainment during, the winter months as well as a chautauqua In the summer. We have contracts with the 'greatest musical artists In the world and the ones booked to appear in Gary, if the people of this city will encouage them to, come, appear In the big cities on the programs with Paderewskl, Schuman-Heink, Mischa Elman, Ixulse Homer, etc. We will give Gary the best in the world i fyou wish to have them.
