Denver is perhaps the most truly American of any city in the United States. One frequently hears the remark, "Cities are all alike," but this can never be wholly inclusive because Denver is different. Its at- mosphere and architecture, its scen- ery and surroundings are unlike those of any other city of the earth. World travellers have compared it to ancient Athens, the violet-crowned, because of its many. classical, temple- like monuments and buildings, anc because the purple haze of the hills steals round it at twilight like an Homeric "wine-blue sea." But Denver's mood is not that of any other land. It is vibrant of the SS the not a cure; your- the the heart. great West. Its architecture is only an extension of its environment for native Colorado stone has been used in Denver's beautiful buildings. The roseate pink and pure white marble, tivaling that of Greece and Italy, the austere grav and warm brown gran- ites have all ! been obtained from nearby quarries. The Corinthian col- umns and silvery spires of the city are but counterparts of thousands carved in the flint and spar and gran- ite of the eternal hills which form its background. With its sky-bung Rockies calling and its open plans in- viting, Denver will be waiting to wel- come the General Federation of Wo- men's Clubs at its twentieth biennial convention next June, 5 to 14. The moment one passes through the Wel- come Arch at the Union Station the spell ot the city is apparent, Den- ver claims the disitnction of being the cleanest city in the world and the most fire-proof. No wooden or frame structure, however small, may be erccted within its limits. Its buildings of stone, brick and concrete make it in effect an integral part of its surroundings, while the great peaks framed in the perspective of each street add to the illusion. The Convention Hall A short distance from the station and from the main hotel district is the Municipal Auditorium with its immense hall seating 12,000 persons, which in a few minutes, by a feat of engineering, can be transformed into a theater with hippodrome stage and Wonderful For Indigestion!

Through a liberal loan policy it su; plements the collections of the smaller librarics of the state and region thus | making available to the people of the entire district books that would not | be obtainable. Near the library, tucked in a small triangle, is | the little cottage where Eugene Field | lived and wrote many of his best known poems. The State Historical Museum, opposite the Capitol, con- tains fascinating relics of pre-histo- ric Cliff Dwellers, Amerind art and craft and a rare collection of the precious metals and stones native to Colorado Two blocks from this Museum, the Denver Art Museum, occupying the beautiful old Chappell mansion and gardens, is an outstanding city insti- tution. Jt is open every day and is free to the public, including classcs in various arts for both children and adults. It not only holds regular ex- hibitions but also sends out exhibi- tions to clubs, schools and other stu: dent groups of the region, as well as the more professional displays which have been sent over this and many other countries and include the paint- ings and varied works of the Indian artists with those of other Colorado artists, conven and cor room gan few br the cool cmera on An Inviting City From Denver's down town district inviting boulevards lead through! block after block of beautiful resi- dences surrounded by spacious gard- ens, for Denver is famed as "a city of homes and schools." The latter include some of the finest buildings and landscapes in the city, Here Young America' while imbibing eru- dition aslo absorbs beauty and cul- ture, The curricula of the Denver Public Schools is internationally known and Denver's famous Oppor- tunity School, founded by a club wo- man, Emily Griffith, in 1916, is the first of its kind in history. It has grown into a great institution where cach year thousands find instruction. Youth, maturity and age attend and all nations are represented on its rolls. Denver is said to be the only city of its size in America that is without a slum district. Hundreds of acres are given to playgrounds and parks which enclose numerous lakes deep and blue and where swimming, boat- ing, tennis, golf and polo are sum- mer pastimes, Elitch's Gardens are known throughout the world as a cultural outdoor recreation resort, Here for forty years the children of Denver have played under the billowy apple trees, and here each season are pre- sented music and drama by great ar- tists from all over the world who find a sincere and sympathetic pat- ron in Mary Elitch Long, lovingly known as "The Lady of the Gar- dens." ' City Park, the most central of the large playgrounds, has a wonderful habitat zoo and a Museum of Natur- al History arranged to represent a habitat zoo where specimens of all the wild life of Colorado may be seen with each bird; insect and ani. mal displayed in the setting whiclr is natural to it in life. Here also are skeleton remains of dinosaurs and fossils of deep sea fish and flora ga- thered from various parts of the state, confirming the rise of the con- | tinent from antemundane waters, and the. Community i / Aj Truly, Denver is a city cradled in an environment of unrecorded antiquity. A Majestic Vista From its scven-times-seven hills ey- ery outlook is a scene of splendor and every high point discloses a ma- jestic vista of mountains that lifts the beholder to ecstasy Twilight from the classical white marble Me | morial atop Clecsman Park hill pre- | sents a picture of ineffable glory. An unbroken sweep of 150 miles of snow crowned skyline rising in splintered turrets and spires, sentincled by Pike's Peak to the south and Long's Peak to the north, a misty purple sea creeping softly up the foothills, with the sun like a great golden galleon slipping from a tall black pier and trailing flaming banners across the night. Denver's Mountain Park System begins a few miles from the city and includes thotisands of acres. Canons and gulches are traversed and hills surmounted by . superb highways which wind in and out, up and down, climbing back and forth amid a be- wildering diversity of stern, awe-in- spiring vistas and intimate, enchant- ing fairylands, up to the top of the Great Divide--the ice-scarred rocks which were the first of 'America to emerge from the primeval sea -- where the highway now meets the skyway, City Built by Gold Denver, a mile above sea level with an average summer temperature of sixty degrees, is known to old-tim- ers as the "city built by gold" be- cause, as a strageling frontier settle- ment, it sprang into being with thed discoverv of the precious yellow me- tal in '59. 'The first prospectors panned gold from the Platte River near where the City Hall now stands and later brought pouchfuls of the glittering dust from the nearby hills Some of it was sauandered in the numerous dance halls and gambling resorts but much of it went into more substantial enterprises that have helped to evolve the cosmopolitan city of today, The luminous dome of the State House is overlaid with genuine leaf gold as a tribute to the prospectors, who were the first pioneers of Den- ver. Memorials to the courageous men and women who endured hard- ship sand privations that this rugged region might be made habitable are to be seen everywhere about the city for Denver has not forgotten her pioneers. Men and women, who croseed the plains in covered wagons and helped to win the West, are still living in Denver. and delight in dramatic recitals of the wonderful transformation that has taken place in the short snan of a lifetime, A here of R The twentieth century atmosphere of Denver is still permeated with the romance and histery of the primi- tive, Within the memorv of a man the beautiful Sixteenth Street shone ping district has growe out of the J Chitdgencey Yel hers. {CASTORIA A BABY REMEDY APPROVED BY DOCTORS FOR COU, CONSTIPATION.

Give each player a cardboard heart the same size as the one drawn on the sheet of paper. Let each one in turn be blindfolded and try to pin his heart directly over the one on the wall HEART RING TOSS: Hang a heart shaped wire about twelve ine ches in diameter in an open door- way. Give each contestant three balls made of cotton covered with crepe paper. Standing at least six feet away, they try to, toss the balls through the heart, DOMESTIC. SCIENCE FOR MEN :--Girls stand in a line or circle, each holding a large card or paper. Men, pencil in hand, line up facing the girls. At the starting sig- nal, cach man writes on the card of the girl opposite, all the household articles he can think of which begin with the letter A. (Such as aprons, ashes, almanac, alarm clock). After one-half minute a whistle is blown and each man moves to the next b old fur-trappers' trail. The cowboy with his woolly chaps, the Indian chanting his weird incantation to the sun, and the adventures in the over- land schooner have left their im- print on this center of civilization on the high horizon of the West. That is why in this modern city and out of it, over smooth motor roads on more than 150 trips of a half-day or more and many others extending from two days to a week or longer, one may find recreation that is exhilaratingly unique. Recreation in the Rockies today may be, after all, only the wander- lust gold of the pioneer recast in the coin of release from the effete and conventional, So long as the peaks of gray gran- ite and the glacial snows endure Denver will be unlike any other spot on earth. The Colorado Rockies are calling you: "Come up in June, Den- ver is different." A "HITCH HIKE" If you are hungry and can't get anything to eat unless you can speak the language, it's surprising how quickly you pick it up.' So Miss Lillian Schoedler, of New York, declared to the American Women's Club as she told them of her marvelous "hitch hike" through the Orient, Starting out with salary savings of several years, Miss Schoedler spent three years journeying in French Indo-China, Malaya, Suma- tra, and the interior of Persia. She began by being able to speak French, German and a little Italian and can make herself understood in Malay, Japanese, Russian, Hindus- tani, Persian and a little Arabic' At Meshed she electrified the entire town by taking out a license to drive a car. A few of the inhabit- ants. had seen pictures of women at the wheel of a car, but had sup- marking the handing over of the license, and for a few days busi- ness stopped on the streets when- ever she appeared. A judicious use of the spark on the hill rescued a stranded truck driver one day, and from that time Miss Schoedler's' fame spread through that part of the country and she had no difficulty in gain- ing rides wherever she wished to go. In fact, the drivers were anxi- ous to have her drive for them, as it gave them a certain prestige. Among her trips was a pilgrimage |- to the tomb of Omar Khayyam whom she found was known in his own country as a geographer, and not a poet, * MY CREED I hold that Christian grace abounds Where charity is seen; that when' We climb to Heaven, 'tls on the rounds of love to men, I hold all else, named piety A selfish scheme, a vain pretence Where centre is not--can there be Circumference?

The game continues, each man moving to the next girl and using the.next letter. The girl articles beginning with. the letter B with the longest list of articles is the winner of the game, For the inter- est of everyone concerned and to make sure that only the names of bona fide household articles are cred- ited, the lists should be read aloud before the names are counted. Do not try this with a very large group. The reading of too many names be- comes tiresome, MATCHING PARTNERS: Have a number of red paper hearts. Cut cach heart in two being careful to have no two cuts exactly alike. Put one-half of the hearts in one basket, the others in another and distribute from one basket to the girls, from the other to the boys. Let the guests match pieces to find their partners, Another idea for a Valentine party is to write the title of a familiar love song on two slips of paper; having as many slips as there are guests but the one song title on only two slips. The guests must not speak to each other, but go about humming their songs and listening to find who is humming the same one. As soon as partners find each other they may burst forth into song -- which or course doesn't help the others to find their mates. PROGRAM AY SIOLY TRINITY At the Box Social given by the Brotherhood of Holy Trinity Church last Thursday evening there was a splendid program given which was in charge of Dave Smith, The first number wns a sketch en- titled "Crooked Love', Those who took part in it were Bill Burnett, Lorne Sharpe, Bill Bowman, Ity Fleming, and "Bonnie" Burns. Ivy Fleming sang a solo. Thén foi- lowed the play called "Prentice Knights" with a cast consisting of B. Bowman, Bruce Dalton, Milton Thompson, Winnie Day, Bart New- hall, Lorne Sharpe and "Bonnie" Burns, It was highly amusing. Mrs. Massey recited a number "Temper ance". Dave Smith and Lorne harpe displayed their talent as en- tertainers in 'a pkit given the name "Magic'. The audience was truly surprised: at some of the sleight of hand tricks, performed by Dave Smith, The last number on the program was probably the best received by the audience, Bill Burnett saug "Sonny Boy" while backstage, Bud« dy Elliott, an1 Madaline Smith, ag Sonny Boy and an angel, ac those parts.
