Chautauqua Next Year Promises Balanced Program
On the closing day of the chautauqua it was decided the Redpath Vanter system would return to Estherville next year with a possibly stronger program. About 400 to 500 tickets were sold with 40 businessmen backing a 700-ticket target. The 1917 lineup was praised for balance, with no weak numbers, and a varied program aimed to please all audiences.
