The LJUWB TEAT *«<y greatest event of the year if not the trreatest in the history of Mc­ Henry is tbe chautauqua to be given thru the agency of the Meneley sys­ tem. It will cover a period of six days and every day a big day. There will be a change of program at each session and different talent each day. The chautauqua will be opened by the famous Meneley male quartette. This quartette is famous because of its personnel. No amateurs in this quar­ tette, all professionals; they sing any­ thing that is written, nothing too high for the tenor nor too low for the bass, they use the organ chimes and marina- baphone and one of their number is a reader and impersonator. This quar­ tette is sure to make the opening day a big one. afternoon and evening. The second day will be covered by Dr. W. H. Bickeis and the Sunder- land-Bickers combination of entertain­ ers. Two addresses and two prelude entertainments. Dr. Bickers was one of the star speakers on the Iowa circuit last year. , ^ The third day we are to have one of the finest company attractions that will appear upon any chautauqua, program this season. It is the Baileys' Musical and Dramatic company of eight people. They will give'a musical and literary program in the afternoon and a musi­ cal and dramatic program at night. , The fourth day B. N. Andrews of Pennsylvania, one of our great chau­ tauqua men, and the famous Katherine Carroll Smith company of entertainers will occupy the platform. Mr. An­ drews will speak in the afternoon fol­ lowing a forty minute entertainment by the Smith oompany. At night the Smith oompany will occupy the whole time. The fifth day is Jubilee day. This will be one of our big days, not only because of the large audience that is sure to be present, but because of the talented speaker and singers.' Rev. A. P. Camphor, A. M., L>. D., Birming­ ham, Alabama, president of Central Alabama' college, will deliver the ad­ dress in the afternoon. He will be accompanied by the "Pennsylvania Larks," a black male quartette, and Miss Geraldine Hector, daughter of the late Rev. John H. Hector, whose place the Rev. Camphor will fill in the program. Miss Hector is a talented reader, singer and pianist. Miss Hee- tor aid the Larks will give a program of forty minutes before the speech in the afternoon and_at night will give an entertainment that will oosnpy the whole evening. The last day.--In order that the last day shall be a fitting' climax to the whole chautauqua, Rev. W. S. John­ son, one of our very popular chautau­ qua speakers,, has been chosen for that day. He will speak both afternoon and evening. With him are the Me­ neley Bros, from California, one of them a noted violinist and the other equally noted as a pianist and bass soloist. %These young men are the two youngest sons of C. W. Meneley, manager of the Meneley system. This chautauqua of talented people for six days--twelve sessions--is offered to the public for 91.60 a season ticket, if purchased before coming to the chautauqua gate. This means 12$ cents a session to an adult season ticket holder. Children's season tickets are sold at half price; an adult season tick­ et at the gate is $1.75, children, $1.00. Buy your season tickets in advance and save money. This is a great under- taking for our town, -let everybody rally to its support that we may have another chautauqua next year.

ROBERTB, MRS. SADIE HASQtaBLCT AND Hl». WARY KEARNS Mi%. Sadto NalfiMltt Mrs. Sadie Masquelet, mention of whoso death appeared in these columns last week, was born at Poostiontas, Ark., on February 2, 1856. . When still in her teens her parents left the home of her birthplace and came to Illinois, settling at Quincy. The family remained here but a short time, when they moved to I ronton, Nev., where her father was engaged la business for a number oi years. The deceased received her early ed­ ucation in the seminary at Arcadia, Nev., and finished same in the public They give a full P*®gram; igphools of St. Louis, where the family moved after leaving Nevada. The subject of this sketch, whose maiden name was Sadie Bryant, wu united in marriage tb the late Frank Masquelet at Duquoin, 111., on Feb­ ruary 19, 1878. A year after her mar­ riage she, with her husband, moved to Chicago, where the latter engaged in the drug business for a period of twenty-eight years. Being of an ex­ ceptionally bright mind and being am­ bitious to learn the drug business, she worked in the store with her husband during all» these years and a number of years ago passed the Illinois state board examination in pharmacy, she holding a diploma ever since. Ever since her late husband's Illness and after his death she has continued the drug business in McHenry, which the husband purchased of Miss Julia A. Story about seven years ago. She continued' in this line of work until two weeks previous to her death, when the fatal illness came upon her.

In the home she proved herself a kind and in­ dulgent mother and hsr departure is greatly missed by the surviving chil­ dren, who have been raised under her tender care. While not the type of a woman to mix in public affairs she was ever ready to do her part for the good of the town or community, her generosity in this direction standing out as a dis­ tinct credit to her.

The OMLDaw. is nun nm m counae or •MtfttmrnKSMss ITKH0 in PEOPLE I i Earl Rrtwrto'.-, - tContributed] A ; I H Rev. Earl A. Roberts was born'in Prairie du Sac, Wis., August'12,1§90, and died in Raton, N. M., June 4,1914, aged 23 years, 9 months and 22-dRys. He passed thru the grades 6f the Illinois schools, grtdua&lng at the head of a class of sixteen. His high sbhool education was obtained In ' Raton, where he again took first honors. From high school he went to the Ohio Wes- leyan university at Delaware, Ohio, where he spent four years in study. During two years of this period he de­ voted his holiday vacation with the Y. M. C. A. gospel team, of whioh he war captain. He was also captain of the university team sent to debate against Miami university in 1912, and received public honorable recognition in the college and was elected to membership in the national Greek letter society, Delta Sigma Rho. He was also a member of the Ohio Wesley an Union and numerous literary societies. He was graduated with college honors, bo- ing one of five out of 200 graduate to receive the Taylor fellowship, • Earl experienced conversion early la life at a meeting conducted by the Salvation Army, joined the Methodist church and felt his mission -in life to be in the service of the church. Dur­ ing the third year of his college work, therefore, he shaped his oourse for the ministry and to that end, after geaiuf ation^pent one year In Garrett Bibli­ cal institute at Evanston, 111., at the same tiipe serving a student appoint­ ment at McHenry, 111., in whlah eapaor it̂ he did effective work. Ha theft re­ turned to New Mexioo and iMfr-tpr pointed to his first pastorate at Olay- ton, Union county. > In Clayton the "Litile Minister," as he soon w&s sffectionalely called bj his congregation, made a deep Mid last­ ing impression. His personality atr tracted especially the yoiuyr people, who flocked to him in numbers. The church took on a new spirit of .har­ mony and service and a splendid, growth began. But for years Mr. Roberts' aspirations and labors for scholarly at*, tainment and training for service had made heavy drafts on his . physioal strength, and in Clayton it beoaasflf evident that he must suspend his labon| for a period of rest. With a keen sense of disappointment he relinquished his work and returned to his home at Raton, where, despite every favorable condition to recovery of his strength, he continued to fail until the end. The keynote was touched at the ser­ vice at the church in the words spoken by Dr. Alonxo Bright when he said: "This Is not a burial--it Is a oorona- tion. There are those who early h* life become no far advanced in spiritual attainment that they arc ready to take up the higher burdens that wait on the other side, while others must labor thru many yearn of preparation before full fitness is achieved. Earl hfd don^ a man's work while yet a boy and was ready for crowning. I am not one who believes that we step from the present ]ife into a life of ease and glorified; pleasure. I believe that God Is hold­ ing for us all invthftt-other plaae pleas­ ures o? h'ghcr serflc% foi wLl_L v;c, must qualify here. And Earl had made his preparation complete. It is not la my heart to mourn, btif rather to re­ joice, that he is permitted now to eo»tor into that service and to escape the tptt. and burden of life here during accumu­ lated years." ^ The Methodist ehf»eh SqndajAftar- noon was filled to its seated eapaeity.< A profusion of fiowersdeeked tbe altar ̂ the choir rail and the silont form. The ceremonies ware simple. The words of farewell by Rev. Bernard Gibbs and Dr. Alonzo Bright were in­ formal, as friend I peaks to friend of one who is greatly loved. Thfre was no preaching, ss funeral preaching is commonly understood, and no funeral pomp. More nearly than the writer has ever seen It before, the last tender lute to Rev. Earl A. Roberts wasa> salute to the crowned, not to the over-. thrown. It was a high demonstration of a serene confidence in the truth which the "Little Minister" lived to The Marengo foundry and machine shop has disposed of forty Ford auto­ mobiles thus far this season.
