THE CHAUTAUQUAN 



A M agazine of Things Worth While 



FORESIGHT OF PLANS AND PURPOSES 



The Ckautatiquan was the pioneer magazine west of the Alleghenies, and has been a success from the 

 beginning. The late Frances E. Willard said: "In my opinion The Chautauquan is in closer touch with 

 the real heart of progressive humanity than any other magazine with which I am acquainted." 



With no less attention to the distinctively educational features which connect The Chautauquan with 

 the admirable work of the Chautauqua Institution, the scope of the magazine has been broadened greatly 

 within the last few years. It is interesting to the general reader who cares for something more than mere 

 entertainment, and is essentially "A magazine of Things Worth While." 



For 1902-03 The Chautatiquan has enlarged plans which will make it more than ever "The leading ex- 

 ponent of the outlook and uplift forces in the life of the American people." Its watchwords are, "Civic 

 Progress," "Personal Opportunity," and "Home Outlook."

THE UNITED STATES AS AN ART CENTER 



Frederick MacMonnies, the noted sculptor, says, 

 "A time may come when America will itself be 

 an art center to which Europeans will flock for 

 study and atmosphere. It does not take as long 

 as one might imagine to create an art center." 

 TliG Chautauquan will note progress in this line.
