The Chautauqua Literary and Sci entific Circle has just completed the fii-df honk nf thn reading course for J 1913 and 1914 Mahaffy's "Rambles and Studies in Greece." The pre scribed course for the year consists of three books besides the one com pleted: Powers' "Message of Greek Art," Miller and Kuhns' "Studies in the Poetry of Italy," and Schmuck- er's "Meaning of Evolution." To supplement the work, the club mem bers have access to books on Greek and Roman history, literature, art and architecture, from the state library. Much interesting informa tion Is brought to the homes of the club members by the weekly visitor, "The Chautauquan." One evening has been devoted to the "Unspeakable Turk." During this evening special attention- was civen to the life of Mohammed, the Koran, and the Joys and sorrows of the Turkish women, as revealed In "A' Turkish Woman's Impressions of Europe." Aside from the study of the classic lands of the Mediterranean basin, the club has spent one very profitable evening in Panama, another, in Alas ka, and a third in the smoke and din of battle in the Balkan peninsula. Last, but not least, the club recently became a political body, discussing the tariff with much warmth and some eloquence, and the public will be glad to know that the question was settled to the satisfaction of all, for all time. Inasmuch as Ashland has been one of the western centers of Chautau qua interest for so many years, the hopes that other circles f SHOP MORXIXGS, if conven ient, during the rush sea .yson, and get better service.
