al convention. They are securing the
names of those who are coming, locat-
ing them in proper quarters, looking
after the completion of the new audi
forum for the convention and busying
themselves in hundred ways in that
department of civic duty. Another
body is securing the country for 9TH
er conventions which meet this year
or next year.
They will make an attempt to bring
them to Denver. Trips of thousands
of miles are made and careful list
of the various bodies that meet in
convention kept for the work of this
league. The world is the field they
work in and conventions of interna-
tional bodies are as eagerly sought for
as those which are composed merely
of delegates from the inter-mountain
states. Another body of citizens is
engaged in devising plans for better
ing real estate conditions. Denver is
being made into place of remarkable
beauty by these efforts. New boule-
wards are being laid out, additional

took to be students, with funny whis-
kers. and long hair and flowing ties,
and they got together at various
places in the Quarter and drank beer
or wine and sang songs and were quite
studiously and painstaking devil-may-
care. And i went to one of their
balls. It was most preconceivedly
riotous. Everybody seemed to have a
particular bit of wickedness-or what
passed as wickedness-to do, and ev-
cry one did his or her part at the
right time and with all the outward
symptoms of gusto. So far as could
learn the students do what they
please. If they ever did more than
that, then the Quarter has deterio.
rated. The trouble is, probably, that
the persons who think it is not so gay
and care free as it once was, have
grown a bit less careless and gay
themselves. They have changed their
viewpoint. However, it is the proper
thing to say the Quarter has gone
back. 1t makes people think you
know all about it.

full conclusion first. This is the 'Den-
yer system which has made her name
famed wherever civic enterprise is
valued.
The mayor of the city, r. w. Speer,
has been nearly twenty years connect
ed with the city government in some
important capacity. He is probably
the best Informed man on municipal
matters in the whole country and he
works full time every day, and every
man on the city's pay roll either
works or is discharged. The presi-
dent of the chamber of commerce, E.
L. Scholtz, is young man Long ex-
perienced in the needs of the city and
enthusiastic in making Denver the
greatest metropolis of the West. AS
ISOLATED with Mr.. Scholtz in his la
bors is w. F. R. Mills, secretary,
master of detail and executive force,
who is capable Of turning of more
work in day than any three men in
similar positions in any city of the
country. The various committees of

Denver citizens have reputation
all over the United States as being
the most alert for the promotion of
their city. Numbers of representa-
tives have come from various sections
of the country to learn how the work
of city building is done. The visitors
complain that the experience of other
cities is that whenever public move
ment is started the forces behind it,
divide into factions and the result is
speedy conflict among, the various
interests and early disorganization of
the movement.
Scores of officials who have come
from other cities to learn "the Denver
way" go back satisfied that citizens
there have found the only true rene
dy for partisan pickering and petty
rivalries among those who work for
the citys good. The Denver method
is, expressed briefly, keep something
going all the time" Then nobody has
time to complain, criticise or protest
against the work of his neighbor until
the thing is accomplished and what
ever criticism comes then is too late
to deprive the city of the fruit Of the
well-directed effort.
Denver has a chamber of commerce
that believes, above all things, in get
ting results. All her municipal affairs
are arranged so that the city will get
the most for the dollars it spends and
it makes no difference what mans
politics are if he makes good" The
president of the chamber of commerce
is expected to do full days work.
The secretary is required to match
this and also keep force of employees
up to their eyes in detail work that he
cannot take time for himself. Thou
sands of letters are written every
week, thousands of visitors are shown
the good points of the city, thousands
of citizens are reminded of the work
that is waiting for them to do outside
of their regular business hours-in
short the chamber. of commerce in
Denver keeps the enterprise of the
city at fever heat all the time. The
day is considered poorly spent that
does not see some new idea born for
the betterment of Denver or some
good work accomplished for the great
er fame of the city.
At Work in Many Ways
AS an illustration of the way the
work is divided up the busy enter
prise that is now going on is in point.

Nobody Looks On.
The practice in many cities is to
take these matters up one at time.
This generally results in those who
are at work being annoyed by the crit

good work is thereby hindered. In
