G. A. Gearbai't is, to my mind, one of the the most valuable figures upon the American lyceum. I do not say these words perfunctorily or from mere professional aourtesy. Following Mr Gearhart as often as I have done, I have yet to come in contact with any lyceum course in America wjiere he had appeared that did not remember him with pleasure and speak n'f him in terms of enthusiastic admiration.

He leaves behind him a distinguished record of eloquence, earnestness, magnetism and uplifting- power and no man better upholds the traditions of the platform or gives to every and- iejicp in larger measure the full and overflowing value of the money which their committee pay Temple Graves, Editor-in-Chief Atlanta Daily News.
