EVIL IS HERE BECAUSE MEN : TOLERATE SIN Evangelist Brougher Tells Chautauquans Courageous Men and Women Can Drive Out Wickedness.

EMULATES SUNDAY

Revivalist Makes Hit With Acrid Sermon Before the Large Crowd Attending Assembly on Sunday. Scathing denunciation of the hypocritical church folk, the weak-mindedness of society in following precedents, the slave to the "booze" habit and the tobacco habit, and the general evil-doer, was made by Dr. James Whitcomb Brougher, the Billy Sunday of California, in a sermon on "What's Under Your Hat?" Sunday afternoon at the Chautauqua.

With the gestures, but not the acrobatics, with language as courageous and convincing, if not as strong, his sermon in general was similar to those delivered by the well-known evangelist. He is likened in press notices to a combination of Sam Jones, Bill Nye, Bob Burdette, Mark Twain and James Whitcomb Riley. How He Scares Them. "Mind your ovn business," "Get out of the church if ycu don't like it," "Women are iilaves to fashion," "I hate a pessimist," and "I hate a trouble maker and a gossip," are only a few of the expressions he used while he strode back and forth across the platform in his shirt sleeves, shaking his head and fist at the audience as h- mohasized points of his sermon. at the audience was pleased and invX.'ed waB evidenced by the fre

quent, spontaneous bursts of applause which came from every part of the auditorium. Witticisms Appeal. His remarks were Interspersed with stories and bits of witticisms, which kept many in almost continuous laughter throughout the sermon. "I preach a sermon of sunshine and happiness," said Dr. Brougher. "All that I have said in my remarks can be summed up in this way: You and you alone, are responsible for your circumstances; remember, you must live in the house you build; you can't succeed long, if you do wrong. "Develop your body, the house in which you live, mentally, morally and physically. Don't be a slave to the booze habit or the tobacco habit. It's the man or woman who doesn't smoke or drink who is happier than the habitual drunkard or smoker. Citizens Responsible. ' "Let me emphasize one thing: The liquor will go, the social evil will go, and the contagious diseases will go from any town if a majority of people in that town want them to go. We blindly follow the rules and precedents which have been laid down, but the day is coming when we will think politically, religiously and socially for ourselves. "Every person's body is different. There are not two heads alike, not two hand, not two feet, and no two human bones alike. There are two creators, God and yourself. "Give more time to the consideration of the talent in your boy, you fathers and mothers, and think less of clean carpets and clean walls. Find out what that boy is to be, and make him be that which he is and wants to be. Make him have a clean and pleasing personality and you will do much to reform the world."

What They're Doing

In City Of Canvas

The attendance at the opening yesterday was considerably larger than

last year. More tents were erected today, as a number of reservations were made yesterday. E. K. Shera has an electric stove in his tent that was installed by the Richmond electric company, and it is giving great satisfaction. The Palladium will be delivered to your tent if you wish, and if extra copies are wanted they will be on sale at Thistlewaite's drug store and Hockett and Caine's grocery store. High school basket ball sweaters were conspicuous around the grounds yesterday. Complaints have been made that the boys make too much noise at night, and the boys declare they can't sleep on account of the glare from auto lights, so there you are. Some of the tent owners have adopted funny names for their "homes.." "Poor Farm," "Camel's Inn," "Suitsame Inn," "Two in One." "In-te-rest." On the door of the poor

farm an come in.

Invitation is extended to

Large crowds were attracted to the drug store by the phonograph which was kept going all day when the regular program was not being held. There are twelve Palladium newsboys at the Palladium tent They are Earl Schneider, Rudolph Crandall, Robert Thomas, Earl Bullerdick, Arthur Austin, Arthur Metz, Rhea Swisher, Wym Evans, John Evans, George Fee and Oran Parker. The restaurant on the grounds 4s a

great convenience to both the camp

ers and visitors. It is in charge of

D. v. Acton, an old restaurant man from Eaton, O. Over a hundred meals were served yesterday, and the menu was an excellent one. Regular meals are sold at twenty-five cents and lunches of all kinds are on sale. Arthur Austin, a Pall newsboy, fell out of bed four times on the opening night and the Swisher boys went to bed with their clothes on. A night shirt parade that was planned did not come off. The police heard of it and nipped the plan in the bud.

OLD FOLKS CHOIR ACTING IN COSTUME SCORES REAL HIT At both the afternoon and evening sessions Ye Old Fplk's Choir Concert company gave pleasing entertainments The company hasan established reputation and is well known to Chautauqua platforms. It is with

out doubt one of the best organizations of its kind ever seen here. The members of the company are E. H. Page, director, tenor; Miss Florence Hersom, contralto; Miss Alice Leavet, soprano; Miss Ruth Garland, reader, and Clifton Wood, baritone. For five years they were at the Calvanistic Congregational church, Fitcbburg, Mass. In the afternoon they gave the following numbers: "Fear Not. Oh, Israel." "Absent," tenor solo. Reading.

"My Redeemer," alto solo. " "Galilee." "Morning and Evening," bass solo. "I'm a Pilgrim." "Oh, Dry Those Tears." "Perfect Day." Part of their program in the evening was in costume of the eighteenth century, and they sang the "old songs" of that and later periods. The program follows: Quartet, "Kerry Dance.." Solo, "My Heart at Thy Dear Voice." Reading, selected, by Miss Garland. Quartet, "Bella Figlia," from opera, Rigoletto. Second half in Costume. Quartet, "Come Where the Llllies Bloom."

3,000 PERSONS ENJOY OPENING DAYS EVENTS

ine opening oi the thirteenth an

nual Chautauqua was a most auspicious one and was attended during the day by crowds estimated at 3,000. The rain of Saturday was forgotten by campers, many of whom got drenched, and with the sun shining brightly were all out on the grounds early waiting for the program to begin. As early as 8 o'clock people began to arrive. There were over two hun

dred visitors present when Sunday

school began at 9:30 o'clock. At the concert in the evening there were fully two thousand under the big tent. Henry Clark, platform manager, de-

! livered a sermon lecture at the mornI ing service, and it was fitting that he should be the initial speaker. He

gave a forceful and eloquent lecture and dwelt at length of the good accomplished by Chautauquas. Mr. Clark has a magnetic personality and has the happy faculty of being able to hold his audience's interest.

CLARK OUTLINES CONDUCT RULES OFASSEMDLY Platform Manager on Evening Program Relates Hisj f tory and Purposes of Anh mial Chautauqua. Henry Clark was. the speaker at the evening, session when he lectured on , the conservation of human resources. He said the audience need have no fear of what he was going to say, because he had tried the same lecture on other people and they had survived it. The speaker said many people did not know the meaning of

the word "Chautauqua," and didn't hardly know the difference between an automobile and a Chautauqua. He told a story about and Irish policeman, who found a horse in front of a Chautauqua ground and reported to the captain at the station house that the horse was lost, and that it was standing in front of the Chautauqua grounds. "Spell it," said the captain. "I won't spell it yourself," retorted the Irishman. The captain was persistent so the policeman went out and moved the horse. Mr. Clark made a strong appeal to the people that they try to be seated in the tent before the program starts, because the bustle of late arrivals is disconcerting both to the speakers and the audience. He urged that good order be kept and that everybody refrain from conversation while the pro

gram was being given He told of the first Chautauqua that was started at Lake Chautauqu, N. Y., in 1873, nd of the organization of the Chautauqua on August 4, 1874, and spoke of its growth until now there are over three thousand assemblies held each year in twenty-five states and countries. "Sam Jones," Mr. Clark went on, "described a Chautauqua as a cross between a county fair and a campmeeting. The first campmeeting was held on the banks of the Red river in 1879, and the Baptists and Presbyterians were allowed to join if they behaved themselves. Louis Miller and John J. Benson were the founders of the Chautauqua movement. The Chautauqua is an educational movement in art, science, letters, drama and music. Thomas Edison, Jhe greatest inventor this country has ever seen, married the daughter of Louis Miller, founder of the Chautauqua movement." The speaker made a plea for the interest of the people, and announced that special provisions had been made to start a kindergarten for children this morning. In conclusion he said, "It's your Chautauqua, and it's up to you to make it a success by boosting it at every opportunity."

QUEEN SHOWS SCENES OF FRONT

. Peter Mac Queen will be the principal speaker at Chautauqua tonight. He will speak on "The War of Nationals." Mr. Mae Queen spent considerable time - in 1914 . with the ' French . army and also was with the Russian forces for a period. He is a globe trotter, and has ' been around the world a number of times, visiting every country in the world. . In his recent - European exploits he acted as correspondent 'for Leslie's weekly and the National magazine. Dr. Mac Queen's lectures are characterized by genuine meatiness, concise but adequate treatment .of questions Involved and an. unusual vividness of description.. . He speaks as an eye witness, but not omit the bright spots in the picture. ' The lecture will be illustrated with stereoptican views.

MARGARET STAHL WINS LOUD PRAISE

Speaking of Margaret Stahl, who will be the attraction at Chautauqua tomorrow afternoon, the Shelbyville Democrat says: . "Chautauquans were promised a treat in Miss Margaret Stahl and she fulfilled all expectations, giving a splendid interpretation of Atherton Brownell's 'The Unseen Empire. "

After the Grand Leader sells out," said a well known woman to us" one day last

Since your store opened I haven't done a bit of shopping elsewhere. It seems as though my money goes twice as far as it ever did before I started shopping here. I know dozens of other women who feel just as sorry as I do." This woman started her bank account on what she saved by doing her trading here, and it has steadily increased since we are in town. There is no time like the present for you to start yours, so come here Tuesday and Wednesday while the time is still ripe, and save, save, save.
