Such feelings were in the atmosphere yesterday and by common consent it was adjudged that Monroe had been greatly benefited even had there been not another num 'T on the program. For the first Jtn e in many years the people of .Monroe were responding to the same impulses, feeling the spirit of prog ress, and thrilling with the same ideas.

At two thirty in the afternoon, Miss McArthur met with the children and again told a number of those delightful folk - lore tales that only she knows how to tell so well. The next entertainer was Thomas Brooks Fletcher In a dramatic lect ure, the Martyrdom of Fools. Mr. Fletcher is one of the most inspiring lecturers of the present aeries. Alice Nellson. the sweet singer of the Southland, was the Chautauqua's grand finale. Karel Havlicek, violin ist, playing with her, was not dimmed by the radienre of this star, but tbey each enhanced the other's brlllancy. Indeed, yesterday was the Chau tauqua's Swan Song, for like the Swan the sweetest songs were sung at the No. 8712. Ketitirl of I be Condition of the First National Bank i d Mriu-oe, X.
