To the Editur ay the Advance,
Deer Sur,—
Wid the Chautauqua intertaintnints
over, an the Toronto Exhibition shtar-
tin this Wake we are remoinded that
the simmer is comin to an ind wance
moore. An shure, it hasn't been a bad
sa.yson, at all, at all, avid lashing av
hay, an whate, an oats up to the av-
erage, an pays a good crap, where the
blackbirds an the payple av Wingham
didn't shtale thirn, Whin Mishter
Johnson wus shpakin in the big tint
lasht wake on the Community Shpirit
an sayin that the payple av the Town
an Counthry shed wurruk together, he
didn't mane that the farrumers shad
use the Mithodist and Baptist sheds
fer theeir barses an nivir darkin the
dines av the churches, arr that the
town payple shud go out in theer aut-
os an hilp thimsilves to grane pays
frum the farrumers fields. Occupay-
shun has nothin to do wid a man's
character, if he is a mane man he will
be a mane man no mattlier what jawb
ye may put him at. Some farrurners
will sell rotten eggs, an some shtore
kaypers will sell moth ayten cloth,
but, shure, theer are a lot av daycipt

belave wid Mishter Johnson that we

in that rishpict, but the besht organiz-

WINGHAM CHAUTAQUA
Programs Were Better Than
Ever This Year
For those hundreds of our eitizens
and people of this district who have
come to know and appreciate Chau-
tauqua, the big tent on the town park
was the scene of delightful experi-
ences during the past week. Such a
high Ccl'afss"mc'idthingsisicandn
cileantheentlneirteof
ain-
ment and splendid lectures, has been
provided that the general opinion ap-
pears to be that, good as Chautauqua
has been heretofore, it was even bet-
ter this year. Though the guaran-
tors have scarcely attained the finan-
cial amount of •the guarantee, the'
coming of the Chautauqua next year
is assured by a guarantee list of sev-
enty names.
What the presentation of programs,
introducing the best on the continent
itt entertaipment and the world of
thought to .between six and seven
hundred. citizens, afternoon and ev-
ening for a whole week means in
brightening their Ih.-es and giving
them a broader and a better outlook,

our lOwn,
strtution of the community.
This year we haveto deal with the
Redpath Chautauqua, the largest and
best known of its kind in the world.
The artists of the opening day were
the Metropolitan Orchestra, and John
B. Ratto, noted character delineator.
The orchestra is composed of five
young ladies who displayed a very
thorough knowledge of popular and
classicel orchestral music. Their play-
ing was a constant delight to the audi-
ence. It is a five -piece orchestra com-
prising piano, violin, 'cello, flute and
piano, These instruments blended per-
fectly and the effect was very pleas-
ing indeed. Piano and violin solos by
members of the orchestra deserve
special mention. It is seldom that
the people of the community have an
opportunity of listening to finer mus-
ic than that of Saturday evening.
• Mr. Ratto is a master of his art.
His impersonation' of a cockney sol-
dier and reading of Kipling's Gunge
Dhin were 4eerfect . A unique feat-
ure of the \program was his repre-
sentation of a number of the old mus-
ic masters including Verdi, and his
direction in character of the Metro-
politan Orchestra playing various com-
positions of the old musicians. His
portrayal of the leaders of the Allies
during the Great War was •excellent.
In concluding he gave a very interest-
ing and irtstructive outline of the
meaning. of Chautauqua and what it
means to the community. •
• One of the finest treats of the week
was the lecture by Ex -Judge George
M. Alden, a distinguished Boston jur-
ist. Judge Alden was for a number
of years a justice of the Supreme
Court of Massachusetts. He is a
member of one of Boston's' oldest
families and a fine type of New Eng-
lander, The Need of the Hour, ac-
• cording to the Judge, is nothing but
old-fashioned honesty. The people
of the country and city like to gather
around the corner store and discuss
the graft, greed and corruption of the
big men of the country. The speaker
pointed out that the smallest deceit
was graft. While he had a very seri-
ous subject he dealt with it in such a
bright way and interspersed it with
so many anecdotes both humorous
and interesting that his audience got
the lesson well into their minds, and
at the same time enjoyed getting it
there. •
In beginning the Judge explained he
intended to deal with his subject as an
American, and speak of the needs of
the haur as they were needed in the
United States rather than in Canada.
However as he proceeded with his
lecture it became apparent that the
needs he dealt with were as much otir
needs as -those of our sister nation.
He loved .his country although he
criticised it the speaker said,.- It had
been said that love was an eye-open-
er, when one loved one criticized.
The relationships of life were four-
fold, he said. They were business re-
lationships, ' domestic relationships,
political relationships, and religious re-
lationships troubles are always aris-
ing, largely because individuals do
not play the gan-le and accept the re-
sponsibilities of the relationship. That
was the keynote di his message, he
stated, Each •individual must play
the game and do his or her bit. • 11
this were done there would be no
"Need of the Hour."
Grafters, he pointed out, were not
only to be,. found in political circles.
The smallest sort of deceit was graft.
.1-1e told .of farmers in New Hamp-
shire—with a sly implication that
there might be similar persons out of
New Hampshire—who went to church
regularly, and boasted of their honesty
who watered the milk, and gave short
measure to their customers. He re
ealled a. chap he knew in a Certain
small town in Vermont, who for over
forty-one years had occupied the seine
their at the general store and never
missed a night. He decried the graft
and corruption of the great men of
the land, But that same critic had
been known on many oceasions to
sell ancient eggs as fresh -laid. The
country, the Judge said, could never
be reformed by criticism, Each in-
dividual must reform himself before
graft could be got rid. of.
He was inclined to think that this
was an age of retrOgreSSion rather
than progression. People were be -
coining careless about their religion,
and the country --in the past—that for-
got God ,was invariably the country
