One of the men chosen to introduce the first Chautauqua program Into
the continent of Australia was Chancellor Bradford. The management knew
that he would make good, and he has. His first engagement after returning
to America is with our Association.
Let's look a minute at this man Bradford this great scholar and man
of the world and see what he has done. After spending eighteen years as
a University student and University Chancellor, he decided to enter the Uni
versity of the Universe and attempt to translate Life instead of Latin. He
says that he would rather know men than trees, and while it is a great thing
to associate twenty-five adjectives with the noun in Greek, and twenty-five
adverbs with the verb in Hebrew, it is a better thing to associate fifty men
in the task of making the community better.
Winter before last he lectured in twenty-four states of the Unin and
last winter he spent in Australia. This summer he "comes to your Chautau
qua platform with a new message, entitled "Suncrowned Manhood." This
lecture afford&him ample scope for his big'ideas and far reaching purposes.
He presents his dynamic philosophy of life in a striking way.
He resembles William Jennings Bryan not only in appearance but also
In eloquence. Hear him the first night of your Chautauqua.
This Town and the World
European Speaker of International distinc
tion Will Discuss Great World
Problem At Chautauqua.
An unusual and important feature of this year's Chautauqua program
will be a European speaker on some problem affecting America's relations
with the Old World. This shows the length to which the Chautauqua Asso
ciation will go to produce a program which will keep the Chautauqua com
munities In close touch with the biggest problems of the world.
As this is written Director Pearson is In Europe securing this speaker
so that it is impossible to announce either his name or his subject at
this time. .This much may be said, however, that he will be a man of affairs
who has had the experience in the trying problems of War and Reconstruc
tion that will enable him to speak with authority on international affairs.
He will speak on the fourth night of your Chautauqua. A special an
nouncement giving the name of the man and the title of his lecture will be
made before your Chautauqua opens. Watch for this notice and plan to hear
this notable lecture.

The Salvation Army is based upon kind
liness. It "reaches down" and helps to his feet
the man who has fallen. It has built its house
in the Street of Poverty and has cast its lot
with the friendless, the homeless, the weak
and the lowly.
v.
The Salvation Army is known to the poor
and the wretched of 61 countries. It speaks
37 languages. It is found on the battle-field
and in time of peace it is found wherever
men and women suffer. It is loved because it
knows how to "reach down"
Will you "Reach Down" to help it carry on its
work in Amerca? Refuse and you turn your
back upon the unfortunate in your own country.
