OUR CHAUTAUQUA SUPPLEMENT
With this issue, the Transcript
presents to its readers a supplement
descriptive of a number of the at
tractions to be seen at the Austin
Chautauqua,. which opens Tuesday,
July 7th, and continues six days,
closing Sunday evening, July 12 th.
Our readers will find the supplement
attractive from a pictorial stand
point and filled with information
upon public men and matters,.which
will appeal to all as interesting and
valuable.
The -Transcript has gone to. con
siderable trouble and expense in
issuing this supplement/, botji, from
its desire to further the interests of
the Chautauqua, in which the towns
people and agricultural communi
ties are equally interested. A Chau
tauqua means something. The es
tablishment of a good Chautauqua
is, in itself, a certificate of the moral
and intellectual progress of the com
munity where it takes its root. A
glance through the supplement will
impress readers with the excellence
and balance of the program and
careful study will simply add con
viction that the Austin Chautauqua
is worthy of the patronage of every
person in the territory contiguous
to this city.
Read the supplement carefully
and prepare to attend the Austin
Chautauqua. As the roster of
attractions indicates, no better bal
anced or higher classed program
will be given anywhere than at
Austin.
