I'ri'Uiii "Seven Jiivni's mays- 'Chaulaii(ua. seven joous days days of entertainment, in Htructii.ni and inspiration- Chautauqua is here at last.. This issue of the Advance car ries on is froyt page the nun plete program for the entire week. The puhlication ol l in pro gram will no doubt put an i 1 to the feeling which has some how got about in some quarters that the attractions oflercd this year arc not on par with those presented at Elialn-lli cin's first Chautauqua. True none of the attrai tions of this u;ir has ever appeared at Elial.eth City liefor,', hut that, it seems to us, should a did to the inter est in them . The Advance lias always lieen an enthusiastic 4 'haiitauquan . We hope that our peoplle tiiis year will he Oliautainptans one and all. When there comes into our city anything that all of n can supKrt without reser vatiom it is a great unifying and refining influence. There is no reason why any of us should lies itate to support the Chautau qua. . , w ' g' The Advance wishes to call at tention to the fact, however, that all of the season tickets whnh must he s"ld in order to save the Itoard of guarantors from actual loss have not yet hern disposed of. This is due largely to the fact that the weather has been of sin h a nature as to sn i OUsly hamper, for the last two weeks, the wink of the ticket sel ling I'oinniit tecs Besides many of our people who nexer fail to Jdo the right thing always wait until the last minute to do it Many of them have deterred the purchase of their season tickets until this time. Hut lhc may be expected to fall in line to-day and to- morrow In this i oniiei lion The vance thinks that it might ' ' weJJ to Hay that the sale of sea Hon tVikets will Is- endeil to morrow. One expecting to attend the Chautauqua should purchase a season ticket for two reasons: in the lirst place, he will save money by so doing; and. in the second, it is only by the sale of season tickets purchased in advance that the guarantors will ls saved from loss in bringing the Chaiitau .qua to the town. Not one eent of miey taken in at the .gates will go toward liquada ting the debt of the guarantors to the Chautauqua Association And though last year some sea don tickets were sold on the opening day of Chautauqua it ia believed that this time ih 'Association will hold Eli:':ilet!i ' Vty to the letter or its con TraCT ' intfsr -mar tue naie of season tik.t Vi'iiic.-j la nilit Well for tilr I'ti ha 1 cease It would le i intending li. k.-! - a I the last : . 1 1 1 -1 1 1 ! r that the ,i s 1 1! in shed 121 i y.

It appears mrw that the big Chautauqua tint will be pit'-h- i d on the same lot on th i'- ticr of Koad and hui cli si i rets that it stood upon last war. There has been talk of ihang ;llg tlh 1 : e to the court hoirse green, an-1 this would certainly be an excellent sug gestion provided that siitti eient cleared spate coiild be found there for it. The matter tame up at the guaran tor's meeting last Monday night and was jlismissed le causti nmbodv was sure that the court house green would offer room for the tent.. It strikes tin, however, that this question is worth more careful investigation . The lot used last year is unshaded ami the tent becomes very warm in the afternoon. m . .

" 'hael M il' is not likeh eer to be a big city, but it can lie great in understanding and vision. It can invest gen croiisly in community w and well being which is heart of the matter. Atlanta people:, business and even the ministers of tare the in 'ii the city, have lieen known to scrap like tiger cats over purely per sonal or denominational dif ferences; but whenever tiie future of Atlanta as a coiiiniiini ty is at stake. Atlanta people bunch up and stick together closer than brothers. "This is what the call At lanta spirit . If was Henry (Iraih's spini and Atlanta i a ngh t it."
