Americanism to be Theme—UnusuaUy Strong Features
In Musjc and Lectures.
The Chautauqua committee report;;
that the date for the Chautauqua this
next summer" has been assigned and
that the members of the committee are
especially pleased with the strong and
appropriate program which has been
arranged.
The Chautauqua .will be held during
the five days beginning Thursday, June
"tcTBe 'Reconstruc
tion Year for the Chautauqua the pro
gram has been prepared so as to aid
in every possible way a wise and just
solution of the great problems which
are to be met. It is understood that it
has been the aim of the management
to make the keynote of the program
a vital,' virile Americansm, and it is
expected that as a result the Chautau-
^tt«rwitti*r'even-more
theseuncertain and trying times or
readjustment than it was during the
war.
Big Features in Music.
It is said that in its musical sum-
bers the management has succeeded in
maintaining the usual high standard
of its attractions. Evidence of this is
to be found in the fact that they have
been able to secure as a very special
treat, the famous native Indian Or
chestral Band from the Haskell Gov
ernment Institute of Lawrence, Kan
sas. The band will be under the di
rect charge of a government super
visor. The Indians will wear for a
part of their program their native
tribal costumes, and their, program
will consist of a happy blending of the
weird Indian melodies with all that is
best in conventional music. Special
features of the group will be a feature
dancei-, and Fred Cardin, a native Qua-
pay Indian who is considered the
greatest violinist of his race. As a
special soprano soloist* the manage
ment has succeeded in securing Sarsa
Carey, a native of the Cherokees.
Another notable feature will be the
Anne Keller have for a number of
years been giving programs which
have struck a new note in the concert
field. They do not play and sing for
you, but WITH you. In.their own
unique way they bring the spirit of
music close to the lives of their hear
ers. oBth are composers, both are ar
tists and with it all they are both hu
man. Their iprogram will be a delight
of vocal and instrumental music. These
ladies have had several years experi
ence in the Lyceum and Chautauqua
and their program never fails to
please because’They can^not only sing
well, but ususually well, .and their
instrumental ability is equally as
good. A particular characteristic of
the Del Mars is their alertness and
enthusiasm which is said to be quite
contagious.
High Class Entertainers Secured.
It is with especial pride that Miss
Maude Willis' is announced as a part
of the entertainment features of the
week. Miss Willis is a reader of
playS apd she has long held a most
enviable reputation in the Chautauqua
world. Her work upon the platform
Keller .Sisle rs^ .^Lau:: .amfcr t fuIFSufrafte Is loved “a s m uch
for the character of her selections as
for her artistic ability. She strives to
be more than a mere entertainer, and
she succeeds. Her appearance at the
Chautauqua w-ill be an event long to
be remembered in the community.
On the same day with Miss Willis
will* be presented Brush, The Great,
that refined and cleVel 1 illusionist who
denced by the unusually strong group
of lecturers which.have been secured.
The keynote of the week " will be
struck by a notable lecture on Amer-
icanism by Montaville Flowers who
for many years has been considered
one of America’s foremost orators and
publicists. No man on the American
platform has a clearer or fuller grasp
of the facts and issues involved in
present world affairs. He stands pre
eminent among America's greatest ora
tors for his power to present vital sub
jects in forcible, logical address. His
subject will be “America’s Highway to
Happiness”. Every intelligent Ameri
can patriot should hear it.
Then there will be Strickland Gilli-
Jaiu Ag^r4ca’srfer«mog^-baiMojijtt,
both to the most - exacting music lov
ers. Both are composers, both are ar-
tie about music. •
The Chautauqua management con
siders itself fortunate in being able
to present the Dough Boys Male Quar-
tat made up entirely of soldier boys
just back from service overseas. Each
member has been carefully chosen
from the standpoint of honorable and
distinguished service to Uncle Sam
as well as because of their unusual
musical ability. Their program will
be made up of trench song f s and stories
—thrilling experiences in the world
war, together with a high class quar
tet repertoire. One of the special fea
tures of their program will be the his
tory of the Great War as told in its
trench songs.
The Del Mar Ladies Quartet will
give a varied and delightful program
lar more^ than ar-deeade- has-been de— itonselteeptffgT
lighting Lyceum 'and Chautauqua au
diences in every state in the Union:
His entertainment is as remarkable
for its variety of mystery as for the
mystery itself. r He presents tricks
culled from England, China, France,
India,—in fact from every source un
der the sun., Mr. Brush too is more
than an entertainer. He strives to
educate as well. His aim is partly to
show people that they cannot believe
everything they see and so to beware
of the otner man's game. It would be
difficult to find a finer combination of
entertainment and Instruction than is
to be found in Mr. Brush’s program.
Lectures Especially Strong.
That the Chautauqua management
has been doing its utmost to make its
message to the pfeople and its contri
bution to the nation in these trying
times as effective as possible is evl-
twenty years he has talked t8 Ameri
can audiences from coast to coast and
no man has a cleaner, better- 1 record.
He is constantly filling return dates,
and he is always considered, new be
cause of his ability to originate while
on the platform. Mr, Gillilat| is a
writer alsoj He writes for every Is
sue of Farm Life and he has something
in every month’s magazines,—Good
Munsey; w o m aTn s
World, Rycroft or Ladies Home Journ
al. His subject at the Chautauqua
will be “—ust Among Ourselves”.
The lecturer who will prove of as
great interest as any is L. Harwood
Spicer, a renowned English educator,
.and an eye witness of the German
Revolution. He will make .a special
trip to America to bring to Community
Chautauqua -audiences this summer a
most timely and interesting message.
His subject will be "The German Revo-
lution as I Saw It”. He wil Igive ac
curate descriptions of what has bees
going on iif Germany since the
eleventh of last November, and from
his extraordinary knowledke of Ger
many and the Germans he is able au
thoritatively to state what we may ex-
r ■
pect of Germany in the future.
All in all a great treat is in store
for everybody. ' It is planned to' put
