SELDER iest money in a community, "fhe Com mercial club of any community could well afford to assist In the promotion of a Chautauqua for lta advertising ad vantages. Hundreds and thousands of strangers hear of a city through the literature connected with the Chau tauqua. But In comparably the ben efit of Chautauqua la through the ed ucational and moral uplift which comes to a community by coming In contact, at the annual sessions, with the finest and best minds In America. Many a boy and girl, In the forma- tlve period of their lives, find them selves, when sitting under the Inspir ation and listening to a HIUIs, a Gunsaulus or a Mctntyre. Thousands of men and women have been helped Into higher living by the Inspiration which comes with the annual sessions of a Chautauqua association. If were to put It in a phrase, .1 would say that Chautauqua Is not an educa tion but an inspiration. It Is clean wholesome and beneficial recreation. Now as to the business end of It, let- me say that most Chautauquas are organized as a corporation. The capi tal stock depends upon the local situ ation and the value of land In each community. In most Instances a cap ital stock of from 15000 to $10,000 would be found sufficient. This would not be true, however, if a large sum had to be paid for the necessary lands. An auditorium such as you 111 need will cost from $2000 to 13000 and would seat 8000 people. The transportation Is an all Important matter'and must be looked after care fully. An abundant and pure water supply It absolutely necessary. Let me again say in conclusion, and let this be emphasized, that if you de sire to organize a Chautauqua asso ciation, be careful of the foundations and be sure that you make them broad enough to enlist the co-operation of all good people. If we can be of any service to you or your people in the working out of the many details, we will be pleased to aid In any possible way. If you should organize toon. we could arrange, no doubt, for some of our talent to appear In your pro gram this year. Then, of more Im portance, your assembly would no doubt be gladly admitted Into the coast circuit, making the fifth Chau tauqua, and the same circuit talent would serve all. v H. E. CROSS.
