' Chautauqua Closes The Chautauqua closed last night with a fine concert by the Fadettes Military Band that pleased all lovers of this class of music. The entertainments have all been of a high order, some of course more pleasing than others. From what we hear, one ot the best was the lecture on "Community Ideals" by Dr. David D. Vaugham. It was in structive, pleasing and blight. He surely left many things for us all to seriously consider if we want this to bo the model community. Notwithstanding the severe storm last night that kept many away pledges for 325 season tickets for next year were taken and the balance can be easily obtained by a thorough canvass, it is said, so we shall prob ably have Chautauqua next year. Instead of guarantors, it will be seen by the above, pledges for tickets Were made, a much better way. LOCAL TEAM WINS GOLF MATCH 18 Hole fcecord Equalled by B. M.
