8:30 p.m. Film Feature. Wake up, America. Between sixty and sixty-five hundred people attended the Chautauqua Thursday, is estimated by F. W. Riggs, of the Chautauqua committee. Gate receipts totaled $1,002.66, from which the war tax is to be extracted, but even as such it is a record breaking day for mid-week. J. Roy Ellison, who is manager of the Ellison-White Chautauqua System, which is the great Chautauqua syndicate both of the western states and of Australia, was a visitor in this city Thursday. Mr. Ellison had come out of his way to visit the Richmond Chautauqua, as well as to meet Irvin Cobb, and he was amazed at the size and interest taken in our enterprise, pronouncing It the best Chautauqua he ever has Been. "Wake Up America," the moving picture play showing the most stirring scenes from the war, will be presented Saturday evening. The picture is a present from a patriotic . Millionaire
who lives within forty miles of Rich
mond, but who wishes his name and the name of his manufacturing plant
kept entirely apart from the , picture In order that everyone will feel the
nlcture to be of purely patriotic im
port, with no advertising feature in
connection. Four men will be sent with the picture, one of whom is a most interest
ing lecturer, according to reports, since he follows the "Billy Sunday" method of keeping the attention of the audience. The picture cost an enormous sum to be produced, and only has been shown for a few months so that it entirely new and most worth while. It is endorsed by the Y. M. C. A. and all patriotic leaders, and will be an attraction that grown people as well as children cannot afford to miss. Members of the Chicago Operatic company are known to practically every music lover of the city. J. B. Miller, whose company was In this city last Sunday is the tenor, and has sung at the May Festival. Mrs. Fredericka Downing, the contralto also has been here in other years and was at once accepted as a favorite. The pianst, Edgar Nelson, is also well known to many of the Richmond patrons of the Chautauqua, while Amy Neill the violinist is considered in the class with Maud Powell, and G. Magnus Shutz, the bass singer, is a member of the New York Metropolitan Grand Opera company, and ranks among the best in the country.
g7m Just a Reporter Says Irvin Cobb-He's Also a "Regular Fellow
"About being famous," said Irvin Cobb, with a soft, easy chuckle, Thursday afternoon as he slipped down a little more comfortable in his easy rocker on a cool, shady porch, "at first it is rather flattering to your vanity, but after several years when every place you go and every thing you do is noticed by almost everyone you meet, and you know that whereever you register your name people recognize it. I suppose it is the proper thing to' say that you get sick of it, only I know I'd feel a lot sicker if it ever stopped." When you meet Mr. Cobb, your first impression is that you were about to
shake hands with tne nomenest, pua-gy-fat man man you have ever met,
don't think anything about it until afterwards, don't you know?. It is the most thrilling experience in the worls to be shot at. You get so excited you forget all about being scared. Why everyone there wants to. be 6hot at, don't you know?" (And to .appreciate that "don't you know" one has to hear him say it, for he has the easy southern way of saying it; Instead of the formal English manner). "Of course they don't especially, wants to get hit. but there is nothing like being shot at." . Mr. Cobb spoke of the aerial fights between the Allied and the German planes being so continual that the men scarcely eVen noticed them any more.

HAWAIIAN SINGERS PLEASE AUDIENCE
"There may not be any Hawaiians at the Chautauqua next year if they keep on enlisting in the service as they are now," said David Kaleipua Munson, the leader of the Hawaiian singers who were on the program Thursday. "One of our members already has gone into the service this 6eson, and Dr. Ting leaves us Saturday." . .;- Dr. Ting, whose whole "name is
Joseph Y. Ting, has been in the United
States for some time, and is a graduate of the Northwestern College of Dental Surgery, and will be in the reserve medical list in the plastic surgical department. ; , The concert which was presented by the company was pronounced by many the best Hawaiian concert ever given in Richmond. All members entered into their work with the greatest enVinc4a fim and trt1r vrkffAta verA nrit
only unusually good, but the short de-j
scriptive ,talk on Hawaiian life interested, many. In explaining the symbol ; of the "lei," the orange circlet which they wore around their necks, and which was the symbol of , Friendship, Dr. Ting said that the real ones are made
out , of "the native Hawaiian flowers called "ilima" in their language, and these were almost sacred. When Hawaiians put their tokens of friendship on the visitors who are leaving the island, the visitors are supposed to return them, but the imitation "lei" are usually kept as souvenirs. Mr. Munson said that he had done
everything since he had been in Amer
j ica from being in vaudeville to dolnf , Red Cross work. . Z All the members of the companj ! wer friends back in Hamall befoni ' coming to America. Their names af ;Mr. and Mrs. David Munson. Philltt j Bellini and Dr. J. Y. Ting. Use Palladium Want Adst

but the moment he began to speak, his chin slightly lifted, his voice low and easy, and his words pronounced with the delightful Kentucky accent, you forget everything but the fascination of his talk. "People may say that I'm not a magazine writer, or that I'm not a great journalist, but if they don't say I'm a good reporter, they're a liar." emphsized Mr. Cobb, by way of explaining his attitude towards his work. "I've been on a paper all my life, and that's the way I want to be thought of. The Saturday Evening Post is Just a sort of newspaper, and when I went over to France and Belgium I always said I was just a newspaper reporter, not a journalist. "I was over at the front twice; the first time in 1914 when I spent four months in France and Belgium, and this year I was just in France for five months. "It surely is the most tremendously fascinating place in the world. You have to get away from it to digest what you did see, for things that usually would seem events in a life time-

"You hear the constant hum of the motors as the planes keep circling around all the time, and usually there is some shooting going on, too, but unless it is an unusually big fight, or some plane Is falling, no one pays any attention.'' Mr. Cobb is one of those rare people whose personal conversation is as richly unique as his written articles, and after talking with him, one is convinced that all he has written Is not merely the "high points" of his wit and ability, but the normal tenor of, his daily life. He may be a famous man, and a genius, but with it all he is just a "regular fellow."

A number of small chidlren will sell the flowers, and will be assisted by older girls and women who will take care of the larger contributions. The flowers sell for any amount over ten cents.
