The Glenwood post., 1911-06-10

past year in Los Angeles for the bene-
fit of her health, is stopping in Glen
wood this week on visit to the home
of her daughter, Mrs. H. H. French, on
her return to her home at Evergreen,
Colorado.
Elmer Lucas this week took his faith
er up to Hanging Lake to give him a
sample of real Colorado scenery Tie
i elder Lucas thinks Glenwood is alto
gether too modest in advertising her
scenic beauty which he thinks cannot
be surpassed.
It's shame that there ism It a decent
road out of Glenwood in any direction
you care to start. Just try to get out
of this town in an automobile or other
vehicle and if you don't have a regular
bump the bumps experience, come to
this office and report.

A fellow passed through Glenwood
Monday driving one horse which was
