THE HON. GEORGE D.
iOEN, LECTURER
The Second Number of the Normal
Lecture Course is to be One of the
Greatest Attractions of Season
f
I
On the evening of December 71I1,
Flaestaff people are to have an
6
.'opportunity to hear one of the
greatest and mbst famed lecturers
the Lyceum platform of America
has to offer. Judge Alden is a
man. with a message and he knows
how to deliver it. Newspapers
throughout the country vie with
each other in singing the praises
of this notable orator. An Iowa
paper has this to say of him:
"He went at his address hammer
and tongs. The writer has been
attending public addresses of all
sorts for thirty years, but never
before has he encountered a man
who has put so much energy into
his remarks as did Judge Alden.
Before he had been speaking two
minutes, his audience was magne
tized by his eloquence and earnest
ness. He is a member of the su
preme court of his state and his
message is a sermon Irom a law
yer and a business man to his
fellows."
Another says: "He is clean and
clear-cut; he has Yankee wit
coupled with Yankee practical
sense; he has courage and convic
tion; he is the typical man with a
message."
The Eldorado Advocate pays
him this tribute: "in his great lec
ture, , "Needs of the Hour," he
brings a message that every man,
woman, and child should hear. He
ably presents, cleanly and con
cisely, the views and conclusions
of a hard-headed lawyer and busi
ness man. Every word he speaks
is truth and should be given heed."
A Minnesota paper says; "His
boyish ambition to be a poet has
left its traces with the keen, logi
cal lawyer and one of the best
parts of his lecture were the orig
inal verses with which it was in-terspersed.hitting-our
weaknesses,
but dulling the blow with the sweet
ness of his song. With language
incisive and striking epigram, he
spoke to the heart and intelligence !
of his audience. He deals with
vital topics and touches them with
the sparks of life. He inspires
and incites with his brilliant,
thoughtful letter."
So we might go on and quote
from the enthusiastic press com
ments his lecture has excited
throughout the country, but
enough has been said to show that
Judge Alden is a man of no ordi
nary ability, and that we are as
sured of a brilliant, scholarly, and
withal, a practical, commonsense
lecture at the Normal Hall, Dec. 7.

I
VISIT FLABSTAFF
Last week too large steamers"
came to Flagstaff, carrying six
passengers each, together with !
equipment for all kinds of em
ergencies and encampments. The
company was from Colorado
Springs, Colorado, and were
headed for Los Angeles. Just
the object of the trip was not
clearly divulgad, but from what
could be ascertained the excur
sionists were sight-seeing and en
joying an outing. With the party
was Mr. McGruder, the well
known Colorado Springs photo
grapher, accompained by his wife.
This gentleman carried a fine
panoramic picture machine,and all
along the trip had made very fine
pictures, ranging from 4x16 inches
to 12x180 inches in size. Some
of the country through which they
passed was fine. They had made
good time, and, all things consid
ered, the trip was an enjoyable
one. Mr. Magruder was very
much pleased with the auto road
from Winslow to Flagstaff, stating
that'it was the finest road they
had passed over since leaving
Colorado Springs. The company
left last Thursday evening for
Williams, from which place they
expected to visit the Grand
Canyon. This company of turists
will help to boost the northern
auto route as they were all de
lighted with the roads, the climate,
and especially the scenery of the
route. ,
