In the United States this season
thi re are being conducted more than
1500 Redpath Chautauquas. More
than 100 tents are being used to house
an aggregate attendance that exceeds
8,000,U0O people during the season.
This community is In the midst of
its campaign for the first day chautau-
qua which will open Saturday afternoon, July 23rd, and close Wednesday,
July 27th.
F. M. Estill, second advance agent
for the chautauqua. who has been in
Amherst for the pust few days, assisting the committee in the details of
the campaign, states that the entire
flv-3 days are filled with the best talent available in the platform market.
He predicts that the program will be'
the best that the people of Amherst
und the neighboring communities have
had the opportunity of enjoying at
any other chautauqua program.
The week will be filled with Interesting ovButa fumi Uie opening, num-
bar by the American Troubadours,
"I'eppy People iu a Popular Program,"
to the closing number by Knight Mac
Gregor, popular New York baritone,
with his able assistants, Miss Delma
DrMby, 'cellist, and Edna Wallace, pianist.
Other numbers on the program are
E'lwood T. Bailey of California In
hiu All Aboard" lecture. This lecture, will be one of the high spots of
tlu> chautauqua week, for in It there is
ID abundance of humor, inspiration
and food for thought.
Kathryn White's orchestra will appear on the program on the second
ui't.crnoon and are known In lyceum
anJ chautauqua circles as one of the
baat string and reed orchestras on the
platform,
John B. Ratto will give his series of
impersonations, musical and historical
r. views and humorous selections on
i ■•! second evening. He has filled over
;',000 engagements and twenty per
• • nt of his bookings have been return dates.
The Lillian Johnson company will
I pear on the program on Ihe third
afternoon with readings und musical
n.mbers und it will be well worth
i alts to hear them.
Thomas Brooks Fletcher, newspaper
- ltem.porary of Warren G. Harding,
will give a dramatic lecture on the
h'.id evening. He is one of the great-
■svt dramatic lecturers the country has
ever known und the humor and Inspi-
ra.lon in his speech will be a large
number ou the week's events.
j!i b4 fourth afternoon, W. D. Camp-
bill, with a background of fifteen
stars' experience as art director, will
p.eBent his lecture demonstrating
Home- the Heart of Life." He will
have a completely, furnished room on
the stage and will show among other
blngs the proper urrangemeut of a
living room.
The fourth evening will be the headline event when a cast of New York
actors will present the three-act comply, ' Nothing But the Truth." This
;:'■,;,■ has un interesting plot and many
Domical situations are caused because
of a wuger of 810,000 to tell the absolute truth for twenty-four hours.
On the fifth afternoon, Dr. O. L.
Kl'p'IngVr, who became intimately acquainted with 30,000 convicts during
his term as chaplain of the Indiana
state prison, will deliver his address
on "The Ro^maklng and Mending of
Men."
It is predicted that there Is not a
weak number on the program this
year and that each daily number Is
fully worth the price of a season ticket.
NEW LAW WILL
iGOVERN SPOTLIGHTS
Users of spotlights after August lGth
must have them so adjusted that the
light will be cust on the roadway not
more thun 50 feet aheud ot the car
ami the rays shull be to the right of
,he center of the roadway. This is
made mandatory by the Pence antiglare law which goes Into effect upon
that date.
The Pence law provided that all automobiles in Ohio after August 16th
shall be equipped with unti-glare lenses which have been approved by State
Highway Commissioner Leon C. Ilor-
rick. Herrlck expects to issue within
he next ten days a, list of approved
devices und lenses that will meet the
i, q.ilrementB of the Pence law.
iu speaking of the unti-glare law,
Prof, F. 0. Culdwell. of ihe state engineering axpertofBl station, who
beads the committee to make the
.rats for the state iu connection with
the anti-glare devices, states that the
small expense attached to equipping
an automobile with proper lights was
small compared to the benefits. He
.'.-clares the headlights on an automobile to be a most important part of
the car's equipment. "Many people
vvtr. go to any expense to get the best
of everything else in the way of automobile equipment and then buy
cheap lighting equipment," said Prof.
Caldwell. He declared more accident* occur at night through faulty
headlights thun any other cause. He
slates that the provisions of the Pence
law may be met by painting one-half
of the headlight but that procedure
simply cut off one-half of the supply
of light, reducing the candle power
one-half and making the light very
inefficient from a driver's standpoint.
"Properly mude lenses," suld Prof.
Caldwell, 'diffuse the light properly
und project it downward upon the
roadway, the proper distance ahead of
the car. NOM of the light is lost us
in  the cane of the painted headlight.
The cost Is so small," Caldwell declared, that no uutoist should fall to
install proper lenses."
Ihe village
m SalAI In th.
day night a-  m
ivagcmentf ic.-iiiniiiK *he paving
program were discussed and many
other business matters were presented
by visitors  who were present.
Contructoi-B Fauver and Patterson
of Lorain were present and the bids
for paving were discussed. Their bids
were not presented at that time but
all bids were to be .-handed In today
before 11! o'clock. Mayor Smythe ex
pectit that about five bids will be
handed in. In connection with accepting bids a special meeting will be
held tomorrow night, nt which time
all bids presented will be discussed
and the more favorable of the number ;>nsi nted will be received.
Upon investigation the council tlnds
that the bond market is at a standstill
and that it will be dltllcult to sell the
bObdt. snd unless the bonds can be
•■oil by he contractor who gets the
jo!) by St inlay the puvlng project
will be postponed until a later dute.
All necessary legislation has been
passed relative to paving und in the
event that the bonds cannot be sold
all that will be necessary will be to
readveitlr.e for bids when conditions
favor paving at u later date.
Th- water works company requested
:i p- mtt from the council to lay the
wu;.r pipes in the same trenches as
that of the gas and in this manner
save unnecessary expense. The coun-
(II granted the permit and the work
..111 be carried on under that condition.
The local Aerie of Eagles alBO asked
a permit to erect a war memorial,
which was granted by the council, in
connection with the permit it was requested thut iron benches be purchased In sufficient number to make a
neut appearing memorial.
The council took action on the laying of the grave markers for Crownhlll
cemetery, which were purchased a
short time ugo. In connection with
the laying of the murkers, several
places will be graded down and paths
put in their proper places.
