PREMIER CIRCUIT
Nineteenth Season
REDPATH-HORNER



THE STORY OF THE CHAUTAUQUA
In 1848, living in Detroit, and working on a newspaper, was a seventeen year old chap named James Redpath.

He was writing editorials that were so widely read that some came under notice of Horace Greeley, at that time America's leading newspaper figure.

Greeley wrote to Redpath and asked him to come to New York.

The illustration below, from a painting by L. D. McMorris, represents the first meeting of these two great men.

By the time Redpath was nineteen years old he became an editor on the New York Tribune.

For years he lived the life of a devoted patriot, and in 1868 founded the Redpath Lyceum-Bureau.

In its fifty-seven years of service this institution has always stood in the foreground of all acti vities for education, inspirational influences, and for the best and most progressive of clean entertainment.

Twenty years ago Charles F. Horner took over Redpath interests in the West, and, with the formation of this, the Premier Circuit, was a pioneer in systematizing Chautauquas.

By his work and that of his associates in the Redpath institution, soon Redpath Chautauquas covered America.

Later many imitators came into the field; some good, some lacking a proper respect for the necessity of maintaining high program standards.  Because of the latter, Chautauquas have, of course, suffered somewhat.

But it is noteworthy that the Premier Circuit stands alone in Chautauqua history as an example of the most progressive influence in this kind of work.

In this coming season new things are attempted.

The Chautauqua, as usual, will continue a week, but no program is scheduled herein for Sunday.  It is hoped that Chautauqua patrons will join with Mr. Horner in his efforts to maintain a closed Sunday so that the Churches may have full opportunity to continue their work and the Chautauqua people may have the benefit of a Sabbath and freedom from work and travel.

Those men and women appearing on the Saturday program will remain over Sunday, and, unless there is some unusual contingency, will make their journey to their next engagement the following Monday.

Aside from any moral issue involved, the Chautauqua patrons will receive greater value because of the elimination of Sunday programs.  The lecturers, actors, artists, and all the other of the array of people who furnish the program will surely be able to furnish better value on six week days, when they have been relieved of the arduous work of travel and of appearing in public on the Sabbath.


FIRST MEETING OF HORACE GREELEY AND JAMES REDPATH IN 1848.


Besides, the program this year is better balanced.  For example, an attraction whose program contains much comedy need not modify its plans in order to be prepared for a Sunday appearance.

These practical arguments are urged in favor of a closed Sunday, although there is a greater argument than all: that is the fact that the Chautauqua constantly stands as an ally of the Church, and Church people for the most part should enter with great zest into a public enterprise that does not involve Sunday activities.

The die is cast.  Mr. Horner feels sure of the hearty support of thinking, God fearing people toward Sunday observance in Chautauqua work.




THE OPENING DAY

HERBERT LEON COPE Humorist First Night


Those who decide to begin their Chautauqua attendance after the first day are in for a big disappointment, because one of the headline attractions will open the big program.  This is the famous CATHEDRAL CHOIR, under the personal direction of Ellsworth Gilbert.

It is one of the most magnificent singing aggregations before the public.  In Kansas City last spring the audience was brought to its feet with enthusiasm, and Gilbert and his Company were rebooked for a second appearance.

Next Mr. Gilbert took his Company for a tour throughout the eastern states and Canada.  They met with the most amazing success.

Mr. Gilbert is well known to Chautauqua people.  He has produced and sent on tour more than eighty successful concert companies, and this, he says, is his masterpiece.  The young men and women comprising the company are artists of the first rank.  They are cultured, but cosmopolitan in character.  Some have choir positions in Churches of various denominations.  All are ladies and gentlemen, from the finest of homes.

This superb organization will be remembered by many of the teachers of the West as it appeared at the State Teachers Association Convention in Topeka last year.

It comes to the Chautauqua unchanged, with splendid personnel, equal to that contained in its triumphal tour of the country last winter.



DO YOU WANT TO GO TO EUROPE?
Mr. Charles F. Horner and Mr. Keith Vawter, experienced travelers, will take a party to Europe, sailing from New York early in September; a wonderful tour of about two months, visiting important points in England, Holland, Germany, Switzerland, Italy, France.  All expenses paid.  No worries or cares for the travelers.  Cost less than $1000.00.  Ask superintendent for particulars.

THE CATHEDRAL CHOIR
THE CATHEDRAL CHOIR DOES NOT CONFINE ITSELF TO ONE CLASS OF MUSIC.  OPERATIC AND POPULAR ENSEMBLES VIE WITH MIGHTY, SACRED MASTERPIECES SUNG BY GENUINE AMERICAN ARTISTS.  FIRST AFTERNOON AND FIRST NIGHT.





The Festival Te Deum, the Hallelujah Chorus and other great Sacred Selections sung by Vestment Clad Artists.


We confess some pardonable pride in being able to open the Chautauqua with an attraction that is so prominent.

It really would be an excellent idea for those who admire and appreciate fine harmony and splendid dramatic settings in musical efforts to be in their seats on the opening day of the Chautauqua.

A part of the program is given in vestments used by church choirs everywhere.  Another part is operatic and still another popular in character.

The CATHEDRAL CHOIR will make two appearances—once in the first program, and again the FIRST NIGHT.



HERBERT LEON COPE
Then comes Cope on the FIRST NIGHT.

Hundreds of thousands of Yankee soldiers who laughed with him during the war, called him Kill the Blues Cope.

He is a star of the platform; the funniest man since Bill Nye; a man who leaves happiness with his religion of laughter.

Genuine humorists are few and far between, so more power to Cope.  He is one of the most unique and interesting characters now before the American public and he reflects the sunshine of life.  He is an inspiration for good.  If you feel run down, tired and grouchy, come and hear Cope.

For twenty years he has been making the American public laugh.  He knows life in its bitterness as well as its brightness.  The whole platform affords no better opening attraction, for he is capable of arousing enthusiasm as well as invoking merriment.  On one occasion his audience was so much affected that some of the husky men picked him up and carried him through the hall on their shoulders.

We are rather spreading ourselves on this opening day.  The reason is quite obvious.  If you come the opening day you won't be able to stay away the balance of the week.  If you fail to put in an appearance the first day, you will miss one of the big events.



SECOND DAY
We hope it isn't asking too much when we appeal to our friends to make a special effort to attend the second afternoon program.

We regret there aren't enough nights to go around for all of the splendid attractions.

The afternoon of the second day we have the famous BURNS OF THE MOUNTAINS.  James A. Burns is so known the world over.  He is the President of the Oneida Institute in Kentucky.

In his rugged form, in his quaint speech, in every tone and gesture, there is expressed the history of the mountaineers of Kentucky and Tennessee.  He is a man's man, whom one can't forget.  It was Burns who ended the Clay County feuds, and the story of it should live forever.

Dozens of the great writers of America have written the story.  Emerson Hough has told it in words of fire that will live long in the annals of American achievement.  It is a story of adventure, of conflict, of romance, and the all-conquering power of manhood when strengthened by character and a reliance upon Divine Power.

You have read of Burns many times no doubt, but now you have the opportunity of hearing the story direct from the lips of this remarkable man.

As Burns is one of the headliners, in many cities business men are arranging to close their place of business during the hour of his lecture.





Figure

SECOND NIGHT
The up-to-the-minute farce-comedy, GIVE AND TAKE.

The crowd just laughed and laughed and laughed, and the longer it laughed, the louder it laughed.  That's what the Chicago Herald-Examiner said last January when this screaming comedy opened in that great city.

Have you ever thought of what ludicrous situations might arise if Radical Labor had full control of a great factory and the power to put into full effect every extreme idea.  Not sane and sensible reforms, but the extreme of idealisms.  Frequent rest periods, music during working hours, afternoon tea and cakes!  The plant directed by a congress taking itself as seriously as the present one in Washington and accomplishing as little.

GIVE AND TAKE, Aaron Hoffman's three act farce-comedy, which will be presented by a company of Broadway players, is the side-splitting story of the getting together of Capital and Labor, for the betterment of conditions.

John Baur is the head of a California fruit cannery which is not doing very well in opposition to the trust.  Just as the local banker is about to forclose, his son, John Baur, Jr., after a few years of the higher education, brings about a strike for the reorganization of the employees as an industrial democracy.  The men ask no raise in pay; but will be content with the old pay and fifty percent of the profits.

When everything looks bad and mad enough for a comic opera, along comes a gentleman with a wonderful plan to bust the trust with a fleet of motorcar grocery stores.  He signs huge contracts, and Mr. Burns of the Mountains Second Afternoon.  Baur, Sr. goes forth secretly to buy up the fruit crop of California and Oregon.  It is discovered that the timely capitalist has escaped from an asylm for the insane.

But this capitalist comes back in the third act, bringing with him gales of laughter and a continent of prosperity.  But we won't tell you more about it for fear of robbing you of some of the humor.

It is enough to tell you that GIVE AND TAKE is one of the biggest hits of last season in Chicago; had a long run in New York and will be the greatest mirth producer ever offered to Chautau qua audiences.



THIRD DAY.
For the afternoon of the Third Day we have something decidedly new and, by way of contrast, a most interesting attraction.

As a matter of fact, the afternoon programs are all so strong that it would be a splendid idea for Chautauqua patrons to arrange a sort of a vacation during the week.  Really, an hour and a half isn't very much time to spend in a Chautauqua tent in the afternoon, and, besides, people will get so much rest and relaxation therefrom that they will make up the minutes lost many times over in increased efficiency.

For this afternoon we have an aggregation of artists giving a program of music and art.  It is headed by Clayton H. Staples from the Chicago Art Institute, ably assisted by Esther V. Staples, with a fine musical setting by a supporting artist.  Staples causes picture after picture to spring into existence.  At one time he will illustrate a beautiful poem with colored crayons, again he fashions a wonderful picture with nothing but colored sand.  You have seen many crayon artists, but the Staples are different.  They give the full program in the afternoon, with a thirty minute prelude to the lecture on the third night.

The speaker on this occasion is an outstanding American, whose name has become a household word throughout the country.



THIRD NIGHT Governor Charles W. Bryan
Governor Charles Wayland Bryan was born in Illinois, moved to Nebraska in 1896.  For years he was publisher and associate Editor of the commoner.  At the same time, he engaged in farming, and later served as Commissioner, Chairman of the Park Board, and Mayor of the City of Lincoln.

In 1922 he was elected Governor of Nebraska by an astonishing majority.

Many of his achievements, while serving in this capacity, are most unusual.  He established a Municipal Coal Yard, a Municipal Employment Bureau and a Legal Aid Department in Lincoln.

Last year he was nominated for the office of Vice President of the United States at the National Democratic Convention in New York.  He made an interesting and vigorous campaign, attracting tremendous crowds at each of his meetings.

SOME BIG SCENES FROM GIVE AND TAKE.  SECOND NIGHT ONLY





Figure


He comes to this Chautauqua with a lecture of America, non-partisan in character, but patriotic and constructive in purpose.  The subject is The Government's Business.

We are very proud, indeed, to be able to present Mr. Bryan in this City.  The name is a magic one and stands for the best in Chautauqua life and public morals.

In addition to his political achievements, Mr. Bryan is an American gentleman who should receive the commendation of forward looking citizens.  He has proven that one may engage in public affairs often attended by the bitterness of political strife, and yet maintain a standard of manhood, morality and Christian leadership that will ever be inspiring to people everywhere.

For constant allegiance to his principles, for most commendable courage in standing by these principles regardless of whether such a stand is popular or not, Governor Bryan has endeared himself in the affections of many thousands of Americans, who admire and respect him.

Governor Bryan has established himself as a forceful, energetic and convincing speaker, and his coming to this City will be a noteworthy event.

THE FOURTH DAY—Afternoon and Night
LA JOYA GUATEMALA.  THE NATIONAL MARIMBA BAND
The illustration in this booklet is not particularly good.  It is from a photograph taken in a far off country.

But this Marimba Band will provide a great thrill for the Chautauqua.

Take your map and you will find that Guatemala is a little country, way down in Central America.  The Guatemalans are descendants of a very ancient civilization.

The Guatemalan Marimba is very different from and very superior to the imitation marimba found in America.  It cannot be made in any other country than in Guatemala, because it is constructed from wood that grows no place else in the world.

It is made from the female Hormigo.  The wood is cut down in certain phases of the moon.  The Indians used to call this tree the musical wood because of the sounds given out when the axe struck the wood.  It requires seven months to dry the wood.

The art of making the instruments is handed down from father to son, and the Guatemalans have been playing these wonderful instruments for many centuries—three hundred years, indeed, before the Spanish came to America.

This is said to be the best aggregation of the kind in existence.  It is under the direction of Professor Lorenzo Villatoro, who is said to be the greatest marimba player in the world.

This band is engaged for a long tour of the Eastern States, but first it comes to this Chautauqua.

From Guatemala to the Premier Circuit is an interesting story, too long to tell in this booklet.  Suffice to say that La Joya Guatemala is on its way.

It is doubtful if any of our patrons have ever heard the native music of Guatemala.  It is beautiful beyond description and intensely emotional.  It is related that it is not unusual for an audience to be moved to tears because of the strong emotional quality found in the music.  The most amazing effects are produced with these strange instruments.  Close your eyes and you can imagine you hear the wood instruments of an Orchestra, or the strains of an Organ—these giving way to the crash of a band.

In bringing this aggregation to America the management has encountered many obstacles, but it is believed that all have been surmounted.  Thanks are due to Dr. Edwardo Aguirre Velasquez, the Minister to Mexico from Guatemala, without whose help this tour could not have been arranged.



FOURTH NIGHT
Come prepared to put in a good long evening.  We have another concert by La Joya Guatemala, and then one of the great lectures of the season, given by
JUDGE GEORGE D. ALDEN

Judge Alden is a former Boston Jurist of old Colonial stock, and a lineal descendent of John Alden of Mayflower fame.

For ten years Alden was a Justice of the Fourth District of Massachusetts.  Then he practiced law in New York, then the Chautauqua platform claimed him to bring to the public the wealth of his knowledge and eloquence.  He is one of the outstanding orators of America.  Don't expect a dry lecture couched in legal terms.

In Omaha, Nebr., they have an Advertising Selling League, composed of more than one thousand leading business men.  This great body of men engaged Judge Alden to speak to them in February of this year.  Here's what

The Scenes shown here on this page are line drawings by McMorris depicting scenes from FORTY-FIVE MINUTES FROM BROADWAY.


GOVERNOR CHARLES W. BRYAN
 F. O. Malm, the Secretary, reported: Judge Alden was here last Monday night and made a tremendous hit.  If last Monday night was any criterion he should be booked as a humorist.  He had his audience in an uproar for the entire hour with the exception of the times that he would bring home some of his more serious thoughts.  Alden ranks far ahead of the average speakers we have had throughout the past season.

Fine comment, indeed, when it is remembered that this League engages each year more than thirty of the outstanding speakers of America.

Judge Alden will probably give his famous lecture, The Needs of the Hour.



REDPATH AND MARK TWAIN
In 1869 Redpath's office in New York was a favorite meeting place of the great literary lights and humorists of the day.  For years Mark Twain, America's great humorist, entrusted his lecture arrangements to Redpath Management.



FIFTH DAY.
This is the most popular day of all.

We don't pretend that the program is particularly serious.

All of the young folks who want to hear some of the jolliest, most rollicking music of the present time will need to come the fifth afternoon to hear an excellent double program, given by the Shannon boys and the Stratford Instrumental Trio.  Here are seven young musicians up to the minute.  They sing and play a variety of instruments.  They will produce some of the latest and most popular music effects.



FIFTH NIGHT—Forty-Five Minutes From Broadway.  A Great Musical Comedy.
If we could devote all the space that this booklet affords to this one attraction, it would still be impossible to give a proper idea of its great entertainment value.

Millions of American playgoers have been captivated by the unusual music of this play.  It has been sung from the stages of the biggest theatres of the country, and there is something about the songs that goes straight into the heart, with a deft, soft touch, calling forth a response not soon to be forgotten.

Forty-five Minutes From Broadway is George M. Cohan's greatest success.  This master of comedy wrote the play and starred in it.  We have been trying for years to secure the rights to produce it on the Chautauqua platform.  It has never been produced there before and it will appear at no other Chautauqua this year than in the Cities of the Premier Circuit.

Beautiful and important as is the music, the comedy itself is suffi ient to justify all the claims that are made for this play.


THE STAPLES—THIRD DAY—ARTISTS





DIRECT FROM CENTRAL AMERICA

LA JOYA GUATEMALA.  Fourth Afternoon and Night


There is an excellent plot dealing with the greatest problem of all, that of the human heart.  The comedy revolves around Mary, and Kid Burns.  The latter is a unique character, representing a type made famous by Cohan himself.  He and Bennett, his employer and pal, go to New Rochelle to take possession of an estate.  Bennett, the young millionaire, astounds the residents of New Rochelle with his unbounded generosity, just as Kid Burns surprises them with his unique expressions and flowery speeches.  The Kid is straight and clean.  He finds Mary, a maid employed at the Mansion, to be a kindred spirit, and the plot revolves around a missing will, and an attempt of evil minded people to secure control of this great estate.

There are some thrilling moments, too, and one great climax is precipitated in an attempted mid-night robbery, which is thwarted by Mary.

But the comedy is not all confined to Kid Burns and Mary.

Accompanying Bennett to New Rochelle is his fiance, Flora, and, with her, her mother, who immediately casts herself in the role of the traditional mother-in-law.  How she forces herself into every situation and even gets mixed up with a gang of crooks, supplies one of the thrilling situations of the play.

Some of the songs from the play have made musical history.  Included are So Long Mary, Forty-Five Minutes From Broadway, I'm a Popular Millionaire, and Mary Is A Grand Old Name.

The principals are stage favorites.  The Chorus is made up of very attractive girls and young men of excellent voices.

About twenty people are required to produce this musical comedy on the Chautauqua Platform.

Chautauqua men everywhere are watching this experiment wth great interest.  This is the first time a musical comedy has been attempted by Chautauquas.  It is hoped and believed that a large out-of-town attendance will justify this new departure.



THE LAST DAY.
This is FATHER'S AND SON'S DAY.

We don't pretend to have any great dramatic productions or any statesmen or men of letters on this occasion; but here is a day designed particulary for the boys and their dads.

Father and son!  Is there a more interesting combination in life than this?

On this one day we would like to have the boys come with their fathers.  Both will be delighted with the experiment.

Of course, we want mothers and sisters, but this program is of special interest to the masculine mind.



JUDGE GEORGE D. ALDEN.  Fourth Night


A good many dads are going to be astonished with the knowledge their boys have of scientific matters; and the event of chief interest is the scientific lecture that includes a lot of electrical and other equipment, and some astonishing experiments and demonstrations in electricity and radio activity.

The afternoon is just entertainment pure and simple.  It will be furnished by Joseph H. Fox, who plays an accordion in such a way that it sounds like a brass band.

The big show will be furnished by Herbert A. Taylor, Prince of Magic, a Clown, a Juggler, and a Ventriloquist.

He does many things and does them well.

He is a sure-enough Clown, of the type famous in the minds of American youngsters.  He juggles balls, hats, tennis rackets, knives, and all sorts of articles.

Then he tries his hand at some of the newest effects in Magic.

Then he makes some corking rag picture affairs.

Then he takes a lot of paper, tears it up, and secures some astonishing effects.

Taylor loves the boys just as they are crazy about him, and he likes to work right down with the boys.  He romps through his program, and does a few tricks in ventriloquism for good measure.  There is the whirl of the sawdust ring and the glamour of the circus, all leading up to the Wonders of Electricity, with which R. B. (Army) Ambrose will close the Chautauqua.



NIGHT PROGRAM
At night the fun-makers will give a prelude, and then electricity and radio will have their inning.

Ambrose calls his evening's entertainment The Science Story.  He carries about seven hundred pounds of high grade equipment, including the largest and most beautiful high-frequency set that is used on the demonstration platform.  The coils stand four foot high and are capable, under favorable conditions, of producing a spark thirty-four to forty inches in length.

The story is couched in the terms of the boy and not of

James Redpath and Mark Twain in 1890.  From the painting by McMorris


THE SHANNON MALE QUARTETTE.  Fifth Afternoon.
 the scientist.  The amazing experiments which he performs are explained in everyday language.

Ambrose welds nails by electricity, the current of which first passes through his body.  He holds carbons in his hands to form an arc light.  He fires a cannon and sends a flag up a pole with no power other than the rays of an ordinary flash light.

He takes power out of the air.  He doesn't resort to trickery, but has a scientific explanation for every stunt he performs.

Radio fans will have their evening.  Amateur experimenters in the mastery of electricity will receive a great impetus for further investigation.

As stated, we believe that a lot of fathers are going to be very much surprised at the wealth of knowledge their young sons have attained in the field of scientific exploration.

Why not make Father's And Son's Day a big event in the life of both?

As a matter of fact, why not make the whole week a family affair?

In the words of a great thinker, many American people are on a constant joy-ride.  Jazz, automobiles, dancing, worthless entertainment, abound.

Dad's up to his neck in business affairs, and his golf and his clubs.

Mother has her bridge parties and social affairs without number.

The children are whooping it up to suit themselves.

Why not turn in and have a good time together?

If it is fun and entertainment you want, you can't find more of either any place than in GIVE AND TAKE and FORTY-FIVE MINUTES FROM BROADWAY.

If it is majestic beauty you seek, try the CATHEDRAL CHOIR.

If it is a thrill that you want, listen to the GUATEMALAN BAND, or see the scientific wonders preformed by AMBROSE.


THE STRATFORD INSTRUMENTALS
The Shannons' and Stratfords' will join forces on the Fifth Afternoon.


All these things are very fine, but we hold steadfastly to the opinion that down in their hearts all people, young and old, have a sincere desire to improve their own lives and to become more useful and better citizens.

In this field the lecturers of this program must play a large part.

The great public speaker has ever been a tremendous force in American affairs.  He has expressed in words the hopes, aspirations and ideals, which patriots have later wrought in deeds.

These lectures have been selected with care.  The country affords none who are better.

But our space is nearly exhausted!  We have been able to give only a glimpse of a tremendously interesting program.  We are frank to say, we have made the entertainment features rather prominent.  But this Chautauqua stands as a

R. B. (ARMY) AMBROSE.  FATHER'S AND SON'S DAY.
 constant defender of the very finest things of American life.  The people of the country stand aghast before the spectacle wrought by crime waves and law breakers.  Public morals are all too lax.  The fine virtues of the American home are sometimes treated with contempt.  Influences foreign to American ideals are seeking to undermine American civilization.  We cannot close our eyes or ears to the tendencies of the day.  Salacious, unwholesome amusement must be driven out by providing clean and constructive entertainment.

The Chautauqua is going to prove this year, as never before, that all people, young and old, may find the utmost in comedy, in humor and entertainment, and yet see or hear nothing at which the most saintly mother will find cause to blush.

That's one thing!  But there is something more important.  The Chautauqua is consecrated to AMERICA, IT'S CONSTITUTION, IT'S GOVERNMENT, and to what we understand are RIGHT SOCIAL STANDARDS OF LIVING.

The Chautauqua has embarked upon a crusade to bring America back to genuine Americanism, an Americanism that believes in it's government, and it's laws, and that will fight for the preservation of both.

The Chautauqua is determined to be the constant ally of those four great ideals of human achievement; the CHURCH, the SCHOOL, the HOME and the GOVERNMENT.

No community can come under the influence of the lecturers of this program without becoming more American, more law abiding, more hopeful and progressive.

The Chautauqua management by itself can do nothing.  It can prepare the program; but these are of no value unless zealously backed by the forward looking citizens who believe that America, its neighborhood and its homes, are worth fighting for to the utmost of their efforts.

CHILDREN'S WORK: It must not be supposed that the children's part has been neglected.  On the contrary, a large share of the program is devised for children's entertainment.  Of course, there will be a supervisor in charge of Children's activities.  Games, sports stories, and attractive features will be included under her direction.  The young lady will be in town well in advance of the opening of the 1925 Chautauqua.
