Wendling's Opinion of Guy Carleton Lee
Instead of printing a large collection of notices, we have thought best to use a single commendation from one who knows Dr. Lee from personal association and who understands the demands of the best Lyceum Courses.

Washington, D. C., April 15, 1905.

S. B. HERSHEY, Esq., President and Manager.

I congratulate you upon securing Prof. Guy Carleton Lee of Johns Hopkins University for lyceum work, and I predict for him a brilliant success on the platform.  There is not within the range of my acquaintance a more accomplished scholar, a more fascinating writer, or a more graceful speaker, and I do not know any one whose resources, in the way of entire familiarity with the best of ancient, medieval, and modern literature, equal those of Prof. Lee.  His consent to lecture gives a notable acquisition to the American platform, and I rejoice in it.

GEORGE R. WENDLING.




GUY CARLETON LEE
Offers the following
Lectures for the Chautauqua Season of 1907

On the Problems of the Day

When the People Wake
A study of popular unrest and discontent.
The Strength of the People
A suggestion as to the means by which the future of America may be made even more glorious than has been its past.
The Man of Sorrows
A lecture-sermon on modern materialism.



On Historical Enigmas

The True Jefferson Davis
This portrayal of the President of the Confederate States regards neither sectionalism or prejudice.  It presents Jefferson Davis as he will stand in universal history.
I Am the Queen!
The subject of this lecture is woman: Woman of the past, present and future.  It proves that the history of woman is the history of the world.




PITTSBURG POST
—Among the impressive lecturers of the American platform three stand at the head of the list in a class by themselves.  These three are Frank W. Gunsaulus, Guy Carleton Lee and George R. Wendling.  Some audiences might give the precedence to Gunsaulus, others to Wendling, but many audiences, and with them we agree, would prefer Lee, this because in voice and presence he is the equal of Wendling or Gunsaulus and in intellectual ability and power of expression he is superior to either of these talented lecturers.
