Show H OPENING OF CHAUTAUQUA. M The local Chautauqua, which opened this morning, is deserving M of the support of this community. "Wherever a Chautauqua has been H long established it has brought fame and all the attendant advan- H tages of prestige, patronage and prosperity. H Tho original Chautauqua, at Chautauqua Lake. New York, is fa- H mous tlio world over. Thousands are attracted to the assembly and H the benefits, educational and otherwise, arc immeasurable. H Of course, a Chautauqua is not to be created in a day. Some- H times the beginning is as laborious as the climbing of Observation H Peak. "With the summit of the mountain surmounted, the view is H overwhelming; with a Chautauqua established, the reward is ample, H oven in the material, tangible things which arc reckoned in money. H Tho Utah Chautauqua, now in session, presents a program that H is not excelled by any other than the parent, assembly in New York. M It is diversified, holding out a delightful period for everyone, what- H ever be his temperament or bent of ;mind. There arc orators of Hl national reputation, singers of sweetest voice and actors of con- H summate ability; there is pageantry and other outdoor demonstra- H tion. There is crowded into the ten days of entertainment and edu- H cation a 'greater feast of reason and flow of soul than could be ob- H tained in a year of travel were one to go out in random search of H the edifying. M Our people should rally to the support of the Chautauqua and H encourage the promoters with their purse and their presence. |
