CHAUTAUQUA
The aim of Chautauqua, a visit of which to 'Hokitika takes place from Feb. 13th to 19th, its to establish a platform whereby, vital questions may bo discussed by distinguished speakers in a non-partisan and non-sectarian manner, and to combine these discourses in a happy way with music and high-class entertainment. It is a twentieth century assembly, featuring Intellect, Art, Music, Oratory and Entertainment of the better sort. It aims' to be broadly educational without being academic, and to level prejudice in school, church, state and society by creating mutual confidence for all social progress. It solves the problem of clean, wholesome public entertainment at a minimum cost on a democratic basis. In fact, Chautauqua is an international movement towards world democracy expressed in the fellowship of mutual service emulating the highest aspirations of mankind, in every avenue of expressive endeavour.
