C. Nayphe, the Athenian, presents a great dramatic spectacle on the second night of the Chautauqua Festival. Aided by costumes of his native country, his lectures will give you a new conception of the orient and he will give you too in an inimitable manner the oriental's conception of America. Born in Athens, the ancient seat of culture, and reared in Caesarea Philippi, he has both the blood and the temperament of the far East, its life and its learning. Nayphe is a royal entertainer. He has a musical voice of great richness and power, and his story is as beautiful as a poem. Nayphe tells it with great eloquence, with dramatic intensity and with superb giace. It is not right to characterize his program as simply a lecture. It is a dramatic spectacle, totally unlike anything you have seen or heard. It has been one of the greatest suce esses upon the Chautauqua platform in recent years. Season Tickets $1.65 for 6 Programs. 8. me One of the rare treats in store for Chautauqua Festival patrons is a short afternoon program and a full evening concert by the Waikiki Hawaiian Quartet. This group of Hawaiian musicians is finely educated and finished in music. They have been one of the favorite stringed quartets of the Hawaiian Islands for many years and are said to be the most musically accurate in their reproduction of Hawaiian music. With ukeleles and guitars they play the beautiful, soothing and wistful melodies of the islands in a manner that grips the heart of every one in the audience. J.
