Hawkins, who for the past few years
has been connected with the National
Chautauqua bureau, visited this city.
when he saw the wonderful possibili-
ties that must result to the people of
this city should an arrangement be
made to hold a chautauqua here dur

He Toasted his eyes on the natural
beauties in the way of scenic attrac-
tions and the more he looked the more
convinced he was that Glenwood is the
great convention and chautauqua city
of the whole state. He was loud in
his praises of the scenic attractions,
and could not understand why Glen
wood people had not taken steps years

that Boulder has, and some things not
possessed by any city in the state.
