Quite a number of public spirited 1 citizens signed up to pet the Chautau- 5 qua. and already a large part of the ' necessary tickets have been sold to i pay the expenses, l.ast year's experience was a most satisfactory one and our people will, no doubt, give I this year's entertainments a full pat ronape. Such entertainments are helpful and in every way beneficial to a community. If you have not ^ signed for tickets, do so at once " t - - I A party consisting of County ( Supervisor. J. T. Jeter, Mayor !,. C. s Wharton, Secretary A. <!. Kennedy, i anil Sergeant J. K. Hicks, made a ( trip last week to Columbia. The trip was made in automobiles and for the ( purpose of investigating the rout* t over the public highway front (Olunt- t iiia to Union. The question of a ! feasible highway from Columbia \ia Union to the mountains of North ! Carolina. < Some two or three years ago the j Chamber of Commerce sent out a 1 lilte committee. Both committees * agree that such a road can be construtted with but little additional ex- ( pense. Much of the way is already < traversed by good roadways, and the < distance to Columbia will be consid- ' erably shortened if the present move ment succeeds. It is to be hoped that the move- ; ment will receive serious considera- 1 tion, and that Union will become one ' of the stop-over points between Union ' and Columbia. Some people grumble because they can find nothing to grumble about. All men are equal the day they ] are horn and the day they are buried. Even a politician objects to being ' .haved with a razor that has a pull. ' When looking for- lodgings a man < must either inquire within or go with- , out. It's easier to point than to plead. 1 That's way the world is full of hu- < man guideposts. ! (live the average young woman the 1 ( allot and she would gladly swap it 1 for a matinee ticket. 1 lit trying to raise one chick an old hen makes exactly as much fuss as | she would in bringing up a dozen. By the time a man has reached the ' age where he knows things, he is old enough to refrain from boasting of it. I Some one has said that "Time is money," but somehow a man's friends appreciate the money he spends with them more of the time. UNION'S CHAUTAUQUA TO LAST THREE DAYS (Continued from pajre one) MR. CHARLES B. HAN FORI) Mr. Hanford takes his audience into the classic drama?the realm of tragedy, romance and comedy. His association with Kobson and Crane, Edwin Booth and Lawrence Barret;, Thomas W. Keene and I.ouis Jame--, together with his twenty-five years as a star at the head of his own company, has firmly established him in the public eye as one of America'* irreatest actors of classic roles. 11 ? s as much at home in Hamlet, Maic \ntony and Malvolio as he is with Skyloek, Iapro and I.eontes. Mr Hanford's breadth of experience and strict devotion to his art, added to a personality which lends itself to the Shakesperean roles, is an assurance if jrreat success on the Chautauqua ilatform. He is well known as one if the greatest actors of the American stane, and has won for himself i multitude of friends throughout the country. Shakespeare is not dead. Hi's characters live, and move in the ife of today. The man who can loint them out as they pass by, is he man we want to hear and see. Hanford is one of the few men capa )le of working this miracle of art. The Star Spangled Banner, our lational hymn, always produces a mtriotic thrill. It awakens the hope nul pride, and patriotism of any assemblage. "The Star Spangled ianner" is history set to music, but lanford brings out every accent of ruth by reading it. He has often ippeared before great gatherings in Washington, delivering the famous lymn with strikine effect. He will ead it before the Chautauqua audiences. His repertoire of master pieces inludes characters of age-long interest nd they are presented with the ame careful attention to detail which as characterized this eminent actor's ,*ork on the stage. Mr. Hanford has een before the public for many ears. Ilis long and successful oxgrinece has contributed to his natud genius for interpretation of the lassie drama. That he will produce \ profound impression on our platovm. and delight the people with his tudies of Shakespeare, goes without aying. THE MYSTERIOUS MILBURNS Magicians Gustave Milburn is a magician and lis charming wife is his capable asistant. Together they make an at j ractive couple, who delight the chllIren and entertain their parent!., imong his magical novelties are ricks which puzzle the mind and heer the heart. Wha. he says is ften quite as interesting as what he oes. Dexterity, suggestion, mystery ind humor make up a program with in irresistible fascination. Slate vriting, turning water into wine, and vine into water, the escape from the Russian convict chain, a phenomenal ise of billiard balls, and other tricks vmcn nououy explains comprise a irogram with breathless interest rom start to finish. Mrs. Milburn is i charming lady, and adds interest to he entertainment. If you wish to njoy a magician who has taken up nagic with intelligent earnestness md who ranks among the best, don't 'ail to see Milburn, Magician and mtertaincr. CLOSING DAY ATTRACTIONS Dr. George I'. Rible and The Cele>rated Lyric Glee Club. THE LYRIC GLEE CU R OK PHILADELPHIA Four fine fellows and they are mown for their great voices, clean omedy, and witty wisdom. To hear hem sing "The Old Church Rell" nakes one see the old ivy covered hurch, and its tall turret, and the winging bell. The notes ar so eminiscent that the past rises before >ne as a dream. From "The Old hurch Rell" to "Tipperary," the irogram is full of charm. "Fun in an >ld fashioned school" is a bit of comdy which carries the audience back o the dear old yesterdays. No* less ntere.ting is "the white minstrels." i i.-> ii juni uiiui ii'iit iiikm' lyrics, md he audience never gets enough, ilways begging for more of the sort ?f entertainment that cheers, inspires md amuses.

THE < HAl'TAUQIA DIRECTOR Hit. GKOKG K I'. BIBLE Is one of the most popular and iiest known lecturers of this country.

He will he in direct harge of the various events, and will deliver two of the most important lectures. His work as President r>f the State Normal School of Penn sylvania has given him an insignt into life most helpful to young people. As an orator and natural humorist he ranks among the foremost. Truth is always- mighty enough to hurt somebody a little. About two-thirds of the average woman's sympathy is curiosity. hon't call a man a fool?he may be foolish enough to fight. As soon as we do our best our fool friends expect us to do better. When it comes to opening a heart, flattery is superior to dynamite. Il " " fc Donl f luwu mc coiio ;;!

The city is the Gibralter of civilization. It is a mixture of the best and the worst things in the world. It is the greatest success and the greatest failure. It is a great battld ground btewcen the good and the bad, between light and darkness, ignorance and wisdom, cleanliness and dirt,, righteousness and crime. About its three great functions of production, distribution and personal service are gathered most of the activities of modern society. About the first gather the farmers, the carpenters, the masons, the painters, machinist!?; factory men and day laborers. About the second to gather (ae merchants, railway mer.j Slre/et car men, livery men, post IBCn and express men. About tbe function of personal service gather the teachers, preachers, doctors, lawyers, dentists, policemen, firemen, undertakers, grave diggers and many others. Among all these gather the gamblers, the derelicts, the harlots and the *>arusites who suck a living Sijpni the. life blood of the city and iTTfrrtr* .1 it nothing but destruction and death. The chief difference between the city and town is one of size. The problems and needs are the same in the town except they are not so great. The town is more important than any private enterprise in it. If the town does not succeed the people who live in it cannot succeed as they ought. What every town needs is a greater spirit of cooperation, more people who will unite to make their town a success. Every town needs leaders. If the people of vision and aggressive spirit could see this and would throw aside their timidity, load up with patience and go to work to develop the latent powers of leadership with in them they would do a great thing for their town and would get a greater benofit to themselves. There is coming to our town a Booster Chautauqua that affords a fine opportunity for the people of our town to pet together and demonstrate that they can unite on a work of communiy uplift; and if the stronger men of our town, and the men and women who are now occupying positions of leadership in smaller groups, such as schools, churches and lodges will arise and unite with oui strong and capable business men a il professional men to make this festival the success it ought to be, it will ance our town more in three day than it will be advanced in three years without such an effort. Let us awake, unite and do this 1 very thing and by doing it l<*arn how m do ii better in the years that nr.' Xcome, There is i .-thing 'hat wi'l pay us so well as getting toother and working together for higher and better things.
