This in dicates the spirit of love for the old town by its business men? and it is hoped that the people of the surround ing c-^Lintry will respond and attend this meeting. It is not intended as a cheap show merely lor your amusementy but it is educational^ and anyone who attends, will go away a wiser . and better person. The dates will come during the High School commencement exercises and people interested in the school closing can attend both entertainments^ as the programs are so arranged as not to conflict. We urge every man^ woman and child within a reasonable distance of Lexington to purchase a season ticket and attend every performance of the Chautauqua. Every business house in Lexington extends an invitation to everybody ?to come to Lexington on these dates and make their business places your home. Do not refuse their invitation^ out come to Lexington on these dates, and enjoy the hos pitality of the town as well as the splendid feautures of the Chautauqua. DIRECTOR The Chautauqua director's guiding hand in in control of the community meet^ whether in the background 01 in the forground^ and on the seconc night he perfcrms the function of lecturer with a big message for the con: m unity. Selected for their ability as leaders the Radcliffe Chautauqua directors or the various circuits form a strops gToup of men made up of trained heturers^ managers^ social workers : "c educationalists like T. Boyd Gay, i"-h D' and Drs. S H Givler and C F Rose one of whom will be assigned to oui Chautauqua. The director will re^ main during the entire three d; vs coining into eiuse contact witn uit people. The Radcliffe Chautauqua prog \rr for 1919 invites the community to : op the stream of village and farm youths to the larger cities by making *"n< community a better place to live in "Right Education4* is the slogan. 'The Problem of the Unpr cpa-'d* is the challenging subject of the Director's firht lecture^ which lie gives on the second night.
