THE CHAUTAUQUA
Hcppner-'s Chautauqua season has come and gone and
it may he fairly said of the meeting that, taken all around,
it was a success. Many of the numhers on the program
were excellent as good as those provided by any similar
organization in the country. Some were mediocre, others
perhaps, hardly attained that standard. The same critic
ism could perhaps be truthfully made of any traveling en
tertainment organization on the road.
Cautauqua lecturers and entertainers must, per
force, work under serious difficulties. A tent seated with
rough plank benches without back or foot rests, and
crowded with men, women, small boys and babies is hard
ly an ideal place in which a speaker, singer, or other per
former can do himself justice and when the tent is located
on a busy corner where auto engines and horns keep up a
continuous din the unhappy condition is still worse.
Jt is therefore to the credit of such entertainers and
speakers as Klsie Mae Gordon, Cou'nt Tolstoy, the Carme
Jine band, the Spragues, Dr. Nation and Miss Opal Wei
mer with her junior work, that they were able to hold the
attention of their audiences at every session in which they
appeared.
It is also to the credit of the people of Heppner and
Morrow county that they gave the Chautauqua such hear
ty support. This proved that the people of this com'muni"
ty appreciate such form of entertainment and that more
of such is needed to supply the demand for instructive, and
'"entertaining pastime.
If there Was any inharmonious note or any financial
loss to individuals connected with Ileppncr's week of
Chautauqua enjoyment it can not fairly be laid at the door
of the Chautauqua as an institution, speaking in a broad
sense. The fault, if any, must be charged up jointly to
present day Chautauqua methods of doing business on the
one hand and lack of organization and interest on the part
of the local committee on the other. In both cases the
"let George do it" spirit was in the saddle'and the wonder
is that it didn't land the whole show in the ditch and the
fact that in spite of the management's moss-grown tneth"
ods and the local committee's apathy the meeting was a
success closing with a relatively small deficit for the local
guarantors to dig up is another credit to the people of
the community and yet another bit of evidence that Hepp
ner needs such a meeting next year and every year.
Just why Chautauqua organizations should be grant
ed the priviledge of requiring and acquiring a guaran
tee from every community in which they do business that
they shall be protected from loss the writer has never been
able to understand. Undoubtedly men who enter the
Chautauqua business do so for the purpose of making
money ju.-t the same as men enter the business ol selling
g'oeeiies, or practicing law or printing a newspaper or
running a picture show do so to make money. I Ins is a
sort of money mad age and if we could all ol us get by
with the Chautaumia ulun of securing a guarantee from
the i-onununitv insuring us against los what a I'topia ibis
old world u ould be.
The writer can understand, however, that this moss
'rmv 11 method of doing business bv Chautauqua organi
zation has been in Use so long that it has become a sort
of institution and he also understands that the people ot

lieves that a protest against such a system is in order am
l,-.i if .-m.iM-li communities interested in Chautauqua cir
.nt w.rnl.l make Mich a protest the Chautauqua people
would soon change their plans and go before the pubhc
strictly on their merits.
In the meantime if Heppner is to have luturc Chan
taii.uias the citieiis interested should effect a permanent
.w .ti.m :md work out a definite plan ot procedur

Cisco, an authority on community build

touring the state in connection with
the expansion movement of the Oregon
State Chamber of Commerce.
The State Chamber Is making a
state-wide appeal for a budget of $450,
000, covering a period of three yeaTs,
to carry on Its development work.
The movement has been endorsed by
more than two hundred leading men
throughout Oregon. Eighty community
executive committees have been organ
ized to co-operate with the State Cham
ber In the canvass throughout the-state
which will be conducted during June
and July. !', ).

DOUBLE POPULATION :
OF OREGON FARMERS'1';
STATE CHAMBER PLAN
Oregon now has 5,000,000 acres
of land under cultivation.
In 1919 the agricultural crop
was valued at $206,000,000.00.
By honest advertising the Ore
gon State Chamber of Commerce
can double the agricultural acre
age In three years. This would
add another $206,000,000.00 to
the agricultural revenue of the
State, using laisi year's figures
as a. basis of figuring.
Industrial developments depend on
two factors: Natural resources or raw
materials, and proximity to markets
for manufactured products. Granted
these and sufficient encouragement
development inevitably follows.
Oregon has the raw materials and
natural resources. It will be .the
purpose of the State Chamber of Com
merce under its expanded program to
acquaint the world with these facts,
and through direct solicitation, get in
dustrial management to consider Ore
gon as a site for their industries.
Furniture and wool manufacture in
Oregon are in their infancy. So is the
canning and preserving of fruits. With
itB vast resources in water power, Its
labor market,, geographical location,
Oregon offers many advantages to the
manufacturer who, however, must first
be interested in Oregon and know Its
advantages.

THE SAVINGS ACCOUNT, no matter how humbly
started, if added to conscientiously, continuously
