NUMBER 18, COTTONWOOD, IDAHO, FRIDAY, MAY 3, 1918, $1.50 PER YEAR. _—, COTTONWOOD CHAUTAUQUA Will be Here During Week Beginning June 22 Through the enterprise of sever- al of our leading citizens this com- munity will have the opportunity of enjoying the highest class of Chautauqua attractions this sum- mer. From the week of June 22 to 27 there will bea big double program presented twice daily in the big tent which will be brought here especially for the purpose, as there is not a hallin town big enough to hold the crowds which will be attracted by this occasion. Among the attractions which are scheduled to appear here dur- ing Chautauqua week are the fol- lowing: The Apollo Concert Co., Moana Vierra’s Hawaiians, Met- ropolitan Artists, the famous New York Marine Band, Dr. A. D. Carpenter, Arthur W. Evans, El- liott A. Boyd, Henry Warren Poor, Elsie Mae Gordon, Mary Adel Hays, Beatrice E. Heskett. Each of these present a separate and complete program. The Schubert Serenaders, Miosaku T. Yamamoto, Mother Goose Festi- val and others will also appear. In addition to the famous New York Marine Band, the Chautau- qua people promise that five oth- i er master musical organizations will contribute their talents to this summer school of patriotism. ; If these attractions were brought here separately and each upon its own responsibility the prices of admission would be several times,” the price of a season ticket as they are now selling. Some of our citizens and busi- ness men had the courage and foresight to be willing to assume the financial responsibility of this enterprise by. guaranteeing the sale of tickets to reach a certain sum. These men should be en- couraged and supported in every move of this kind, for we all ben- efit by their courage and the faith which they have in their town. Their object in promoting the Chautauqua is for the good which such educational enterprises will be to the community. None of the local backers receive a cent for their time or services in this connection. The time of year which has been chosen is particularly suitable for this locality, as the weather is generally moderate during the latter part of June and the farm work is not pressing, so that near- ly every one can get away to take in both the afternoon and evening programs. : Only a limited number of sea- son tickets will be sold, so it would | be wise to place your order for reservations early. Any business house in Cottonwood will receive your order and have the tickets reserved for you. The prices for high school students $1.65, other children of school age $1.10. These tickets admit you to tv-elve high-class lectures and entertain- ments such as would ordinarily cost you 75¢ and $1.00 each. Help to make the Chautauqua | a big success by ordering your tickets now. A number of business men met Menday evening in the council room and organized the Cotton- wood Chautauqua Association. oN following officers were elect- ed: W. W. Flint, Chairman. M. M. Belknap, Secretary. J. V. Nash, Treasurer. P. A. Gaul, Manager of Ticket Sales. E, A. Schilling, Publicity Man- ager. John Funke, Grounds Manager.
