Some people lose sight of their principal
entirely, when making an investment.
' They see only the dividends, or rate of interest.
The returns, are not as important as the
principal.
As a rule, the- smaller the returns, the safer
the principal.
. The principal is the important* thiiig—we
would like to talk money matters with you..

PROGRAMS, WHICH BEGIN NEXT TUESDAY, BEST EVER
No One Who Gan Possibly Raise the Price Can Afford to Miss Saline's
Third Annual Five-Day Community Chautauqua.
They Will Open the Chautauqua
THE  MRS. WILBUR STARR CONCERT PARTY.
THIS company has been selected to
set the pace for the entire list of
musical and entertainment attractions that, will appear here in the
five big days of the Chautauqua. They
will appear in afternoon and evening
concerts on the first day.
The Mrs. Wilbur Starr Concert Party is composed of some.of the leading
musical artists in the Chautauqua
field. Mrs. Starr, pianist, cellist and
reader, has been doing concert work
for ten years. She will appear in a
number of musical readings in Japanese costumes which have delighted
thousands of Chautaucjuans. Besides
Mrs. Starr are jM iss Adole Lawson.
| flute soloist and  vocalist: Miss .lessie
De Yore, violinist, and Miss Florence
I'laek, vocalist and pianist.
Their program will consist of ensemble numbers with tlie violin, cello,
tlute and piano; also vocal- duets and
vocal trios, vocal solos with flute
obligato, violin solos, tlute solos, child
impersonations in costume and instrumental trios.
On Tuesday next, July 21, Salins'si
third  annual  community  chautauqua:
will be with us, and we wish to take '
this opportunity to do a little boosting
Tor   the   same.      Word   comes   from
places where our talent have appeared :
this season  to the  effect this  year's j
programs    are    brighter    and    better
than any we have ever had.    In view
of the fact that a. season ticket for
an adult may be had  for the small
sum of $1.00, an.d whicli any member
of a family may use, it would  seem
that we should have a larger attendance   than, ever   and from   greater
distances.    To  that  end  The  Observer is   sending out  about   two hundred  sample   coppies   to  people   not
on our list, that they amy be made
acquainted -with the wonderfully fine
opportunity   for   entertainment   and
knowledge this chautauqua-provides,
and we trust many of them will join
us in this worth-while enterprise.
Children from G to 14 years of age
can secure season tickets for 75c, a
sum. so small ho child need be deprived of the privilege of attending.
An added feature this year is the
Junior Chautauqua, which will be
held each forenoon for the little folks
under the capable direction of Miss
Stout, assisted by a number of our
young ladies who evince a keen interest in the success of this movement. No admission is charged at
the Junior Chautauqua. To inculcate1
the idea of community interest and
public service as a debt owed to the
community, the state, and the nation
because of the social, educational,
and religious advantages enjoyed is
the great underlying purpose of the
Junior Chautauqua. To each child
who earns the money to buy his own
ticket to the afternoon and evening
programs the junior supervisor will
present a special badge of distinction.
On the closing night the children will
present "A Night at tlie Fairy Carnival," for which they will be trained
during the week.
Taken all in all, this year's chautauqua promises to set an extra high
standard for future efforts to equal.

Last Sabbath was one o£ those days
that will long be remembered by those
who were present. The young ladies'
class with appropriate exercises and
an unique speech presented the Sabbath school with a beautiful flag.
Due recognition wasmade of the enlistment of William Lutz, who left on
the noon car for Lansing. A thrill of
patriotic pride touched every heart,
that our school was the first to respond of that large company of young
men who will so soon rally to tho
colors. The breaking of the home ties
is trying, indeed. Fondly -would we
keep these young people in the loving
embrace of the home circle and cherish them as our children, sit is so
difficult to realize they are growing
to manhood and that this call to the
service of the country will be the developing of a manly character and
the hero who will reflect honor. In
these stirring days the very boys of
the street catch tlie spirit of patriotism and we do our bit in the interest
of humanity and the spread of a
world-wide democracy.
The many friends of Mrs. Harry
Parsons - join with the pastor in welcoming her home again for a six
weeks visit.   Be sure and call on her.
The preacher is often the subject of
much pleasantry. It is said of a colored preacher Uiat his people asked
him why he just stayed an exhorter.
"It is dis way," he replied, "if yus a
preacher yus got to stick to de tex,
but when yus an exhorter yus can
branch." '

The best that high quality materials and skill can
produce in a modern-equipped bakery.
At the high price and scarcity of fuel you cannot
afford to do your own baking; besides the hot kitchen
is not conducive to good health and sweet temper.
