"America unites all other coun
tries," says Mrs. A. C. Zehner, who is
one of the most remarkable women
on the lecture platform. She shows
that one of the reasons the United
States is such a powerful influence
for peace In the world is because all
other nationalities are well represent
ed here. The kindly treatment that
has been extended to all immigrants i
has endeared us to the nations these
people represent, and their life here,
whether they came from Ireland.
England, Fiance, Holland. Italy,
Sweden or anywhere else, acts as a
bond between this nation and their
fatherland.
Mrs. Zehner is a woman of very
unusual gifts and attainments. One
man who has heard her ten times
says she cannot be beat on the lec
ture platform. She has a remark
able voice and stage presence. Her
hair has something of red in it, she
!s large, very vigorous, and besides
her handsome appearance she has a
voice that will cary a mile. She is
instantly popular with the women of
ber audiences and her utterances are
equally commended by the men.
Mrs. Zehner was born and reared on
a big plantation in the south and still!
loves the southland. She owns three
larse ranches in Texas and spends
part of each year in the open life
which they invite to. This community
Is fortunate In being able to hear
Mrs. Zrhner this summer as one of
the most notable visitors of the Chautauqua.
