But hardly anyone realizes just what would hap- pen if everybody always told the truth and told all the truth. The many amusing as well as embarrass- is a question news- ing incidents which arise from telling the whole truth at all times are shown in the comedy drama, “‘Nothinrg But the Truth,” which will be presented on Saturday night of next week by the Swarthmore Chautauqua. The funny experiences which Bob Bennett had when he wagered $10,000 that he could tell absolutely nothing but the truth for 24 hours, help one to ap- preciate just what “nothing but the truth” really means. The playlet is given under the direction of Miss Marja Steadman, who is connected with the department of public speak- ing of the University of West Vir- ginia. The last afternoon of the chautau- qua, which will be on the following Tuesday, will be devoted to the Junior Chautauqua. This interest- ing and novel form .of entertain- ment never fails to.make a big hit. The performers in this feature event are New Britain boys and girls who will be drilled especially for this af- ternoon’s program. In connection with the Junior Chautauqua program the audience will be entertained by the famous Joe Lorraine. Joe is known from coast to coast as one of the best public en- tertainers on tile boards today. He can imitate anything from a tin whistle on a peanut roaster to a freight train loaded with Ford parts. He can play a banjo as though he invented it and can tell stories until the cows come home before his au- dience wants him to stop. In the A. E. F. Joe was one of the favor- ites'with the boys overseas and it was only a year ago that the government permitted him to come home from Russia, where he had been entertain- ing the doughboys. A banjo which he brought back with him has been put into the Smithsonian institution s one of the curiosities of the war. It has written on’it the names of many ‘istinguished Furopeans, - generals statesmen, soldiers and sailors who were treated to a sample of Joe's wonderful talents. While a chautauqua is something new in New Britain and many people had the mistaken impression at first that it was a religious or highbrow affair, this impression is being dis- pelled rapidly by those who know what a chautauqua is, and who are 1 | o NEW BRITAIN Socol DALY HERALD. "SALADA" T XA H22¢ So simply and cheaply made and yet the most refreshing beverage known kept busy explaining it. The chau- tauqua is endorsed by press and pul- pit alike. It is recognized as the leading educational entertainment of high class talent in the world. Edu- cational institutions without excep- tion endorse - it heartily. Catholic priests join with Protestant ministers and public school teachers, business-: men, manufacturers and labor leaders in the statement that nothing would be more wholesome and enjoyable for their people. Tickets are' going rapidly and the Chamber of' Commerce, which is sponsoring . the’ chautauqua, feels as- sured that it will be a wonderful suc- cess. So successful has it become that 34 towns have signed 10 year contracts. YE OLD STAGE COACH Movement on Foot to Preserve Relic of 50 Years Ago, Which is Now Falling Apart in Brooklyn. New York, Aug. 12.—A movement is afoot to preserve the largest stage coach in the cbuntry, fifty years ago the pride of this section. The giant coach, capable of commodating 120 persons, is decay- ing in Brooklyn. Cost of reconstruc- tion has been estimated at $5,000. When trolley cars were only dream, Henry Hamilton, a prosper- ous liveryman, was ‘operating a string of coaches in the Williamsburg sec- tion. Chowder parties then were popu- lar and clubs complained that they colildn’t get a coach big enough. So the vehicle was built. 1t was drawn by 20 horsés and so long was the equipage that when a ferry was reached, 18 of the horses were unhitched and waited for the craft to make a second trip. Besides the driver, there was a man to operate a brake on hills. Inside and out it was decorated with oil paintings. In 1876 the coach was exhibited at the Continental Exposition. ac- a GOODBYE HURDY GURDIES, || New York, Aug. 12.—Thirty vears ago there were S0 many street pianos Famous and hurdj-gurdies in New York that a thriftyj Italian found it profitable to convert a saloon on a side street near Brooklyn bridge; into an organ ‘“‘garage.” But the lure of the street pianos has largely lost its potency for the girls and ‘boys who once danced gaily to the strains of “East Side, West Side, All Around the -Town.' Now most of the garage is occupied at night by push carts. The rental is 50 a month. Located From Coast To Dico Coffee ....... Dico Blend Teas, Ceylon, Oolong mixed .... Corn Flakes, fresh...
