The Chautauqua will be; opened on the first night by: one of .the most popular Broadway comedy -successes of recent years, "The Family Up- stairs." Here is an uproarious com- edy -drama based upon the joys and heartaches of a twentieth-century fa- mily engaged in "marrying off" the eldest daughter. This .popular play will be presented by the well-known .Martin Erwin Players. • On the second afternoon Mrs. D. Pirie Beyea, distinguished British lec- turer and world -traveller, wi11 deliver her forceful, challenging lecture "Ed- ucation or Catastrophe." Preceding Mrs. Beyea's lecture, the Moscow ar- tists, a company of talented Russian musicians, will be heard in concert. . Anatol Frikin and His Russians in Scenes from the Russian Life, star musical attraction.of the second night present one of the greatest programs of Russian art and music ever offer- ed on any Chautauqua platform. The program is divided into three scenes, each replete with gorgeous scenery and costumes. A thrilling glimpse in- to the heart of Old Russia is present- ed, and much unfamiliar and beauti- ful Russian music is matchlessly in- terpreted. Ernest Toy, famous Australian -vio- linist, and Lowell Patton, noted pian- ist, a composer and interpreter of life and moods,•come to Cautauqua on the third afternoon in a concert that de- lights by its genuine artistry and is made • generally popular by the en- tertaining personalities of Mr. Patton and Mr. Toy. On the third night, following a con- cert by ,Toy and Patton, Dr. Tehyi Hsieh, distinguished Chinese states- man, will speak upon his absorbingly interesting subject "Awakening Chi- na." It is unusual good fortune which brings Doctor Hsieh to lecture to On- tario audiences this season. This cul- tured Chinese .diplomat, a graduate of Cambridge and a master hand at clari- fying the intricacies of world politics for his hearers, will make a lasting impression on all, The rfourth afternoon will be devot- ed to the children, when Herb. Tay- lor, famous Hunlpty-Dumpty clown, will hold full sway under, the big brown Canadian Chautauqua tent. Herb, Taylor is a prince of an enter- tainer for the youngsters. His pro- gram g1 az is new, clean,.' funny, wholesome and unusual. He is "ventriloquist, jug- gler arid magician, as well as the ever - cantle clown. "Sinllin' Through", one of the most beautiful dramas ever written, will be presented on the fourth night by the Martin Erwin Players of Canada, This wonderful play has literally ev- erything, humor, thrilling love -inter- est, excitement, mystery, and above all a quaint, whimsical quality that sets it apart in a category, of its own. Capt. Stanley Nelson Dancey, well- know Canadian author, editor and lec- turer, will deliver his popular inspir- ational lecture "Canadianization" on the fifth afternoon. The Jackson Jubilee Singers will bring the 1929 Chautauqua to a close with, their Grand Joy Night Concert on the last night. These negro sing- ers are admirably fitted temperament- ally to interpret the negro spirituals and rollicking darky melodies which are spresented on their programs. Little Van Osborne,' versatile nine- year-old colored . boy entertairier,is featured. The Jackson Singers will also 'appear on the last affernoon pre- ceding Captain Dancey's lecture. 1 444r 777 lir THURSDAY, JULX 4th, 1929; ALL GOING TO THE WRESTLING BOUTS Headliners from the Arena Gardens Toronto, Walkerton Arena, Friday, July 5th, at 8.30 p.m, Mr. and Mrs. E.
