Chautauqua Arrangements Rapidly
- Develope Into Actual Form.
Invitations will be extended tomor
row to the gubernatorial " candidates
in Oregon to appear at the orande
' Ronde chautauqua one afternoon. The
directors at their mid-week meeting
last evening decided to set aside one
afternoon of the session to candi
, dates seeking the governor's chair at
, the fall election. Answers are ex
'pected from the candidates in a few
days, and it is hoped to be able to
announce definitely within a week
just what success will be attained in
'the effort.
Details for the chautauqua are fast
'rounding out. The program is 'well
' taken care of, and only in a few case
principally afternoons, does it need
natchine up.
President Miller last evening an
nounced the finance committee plans.
The sale of season- tickets begins
! next Monday' and the finance com
mittee will lay its plans Saturday
night for that campaign.
i Tent Reservations Due.
The directors will be able to lease
tents, this year, as was the rule last
year, but in order to obtain suffi
cient tents for that purpose, reserva
tions should be made now. v U J.
Black is ready to reserve orders at
; verv nominal rent but to have enough
to go around, they should be spoken
for at once.
! Mrs. Vincent Palmer, a new mem
ber of the directors, was in attend
ance at the meeting last evening.

At its regular business meeting
held in the Y. M. C. A. room last
night, the Junior Board were delight
ed to learn that the musical enter
tainment which Prof. G. H. Arm
strong has had in preparation for
some time past for the benefit of the
association, is now ready to be defi
nitely announced.
Mr. Armstrong said that the pro
gram was not yet ready for publica
tion, but outlined it sufficiently to
I warrant the assertion that the enter-
j tainment will be one of the very best
that has ever been given in La
Grande by local talent.
j Among other attractive features,
will be two selections by the famous
L. D. S. Quartet; two numbers by
Hcacock's Orchestra, and the Treble
Cief club will contribute a selection.
There will be solos by such well
known singers as Mrs. A. L. Richard
son, L. D. Rowland, and Frank
Bridges. A reading will be inter
spersed by Mrs. Bridges, also an or
gan solo by Prof. Armstrong. There
will be other vocal and instrumental
features to be announced later.
i The entertainment will be given
under the direction of Prof, Arm
strong and the entire proceeds of the
evening will be donated to the Y.
M. C. A. furniture fund. Mr. Arm
strong left it to the association . to
fix the price of admission, and 'while
the board considered that the enter
tainment would be equal in merit to
many of the attractions advertised at
$1, in order to secure the largest
possible attendance, the entrance fee
for adults was pluced at 25 cents,
children 10 cents. As the cause is
worthy and the entertainment merit
orious, the occasion is admitted to be
deserving of a generous attendance.
The entertainment will be held in
the Methodist church on the evening
of May 28th.
WHAT ABOUT THE BABY
Are you providing for its future? Has it oc-
' curred to you that a Saving Account opened for it
. now and a little added to it from time to time will
provide for its education?
. It is the ambition of every father and mother
that the children shall have a good education.
