to establish a summer assembly which
would attract patrons from all parts
of the United States. The splendid
summer climate and magnificent seen
cry Of the Rocky mountains afforded
q basis for the movement. and four
years of experience have shown that
the original plans Of the Chautauqua
were wisely drawn. The attendance
from twenty-five states last year, anu
the increasing interest in this Favored
assembly, have assured the manage
ment for the present year that the
coming season will be a great success. |
This means, however, that all friends |
of the Chautauqua shall assist in the
good work and by their encouragement
and cooperation the hands OF the lead
ers will be upheld. Chautauqua work
ers are born, not made. They are I'M
pelled by love of the work ana not
by financial considerations. 1t requires
sacrifice of time, energy and talent 10
establish n summer assembly and keep
it going. All these have been Dounte-
ously bestowed in the case OF lae
Boulder assembly. Liberal-hearted CIT
izeps, the officers Of the Colorado
Southern railroad, and the combined
efforts of hundreds and thousands ol
well wishers have been necessary IN
