Remember, the Money Paid* For Single Admissions at the Door Does Not Help the Guarantors. SEASON TICKETS ONLY $2.50 EACH The Program This Year Will Be the Best in Years.— Program for the First Af ternoon and Evening. Unless the people of Concord stir from the apathy into which they seem to have fallen in regard to the Chau tauqua which begins playing here tomor row afternoon, the men who liave signed their names as guarantors will be forced to dig -down into their pockets and make up the deficit, is the opinion of members of the Woman’s Club who have been conducting the sale of tickets during the past few days. Large numbers of people expected to take tiekets for the performances, have declared that they are planning to go but that they do not wish to purchase a sea son ticket, preferring to pay for the sep arate numbers they attend, say the can vassers. Although they have pointed out that the season ticket means a saving of mon ey and the possibility of getting to see niore of the attractions, many people still insist that they would rather not take the $2.50 ticket. Miss Janie Klutz, president of the Woman’s Club, stated this morning that they were going to redouble their efforts to go over the top in the matter of tick ets and made an appeal to the people of Concord to back the Club in its effort to bring in a worthwhile amusement. “The Woman's Club is not willing.” she said, “to see the public spirited men who have backed us in this matter, lose money and have to go into their pockets to pay for the Chautauqua. I believe that if the people understood that money they pay at the door when they go in does not help the guarantors, they would be willing to assist by purchasing season tickets. Three of the evening performances, paid as 'the door,’ will equal the amount of money pa 14 foe the season ticket.” T*he average cost of a performance, when a season ticket has been purchased, is around 16 cents. Miss Kluttz added. Mr. Kockwood. who pleased last year’s Chautauqua audiences with his excellent work as platform manager, will return this year. There has been much enthus iasm over this announcement since Mr. Kockwood was one of the most popular managers that has ever been in Concord. The program this year is one of the best in years, say persons who have seen it. and the Woman's Club is hoing to be able to complete the sale of tickets today aud tomorrow. The following is the program for the first day : Thursday afternoon: — Introductory Exercises. Grand Concert—Jugo-Slav Tamburien Orchestra. Admission 50c, children 25c.
