Prominent Hotel Man Heads Move
for Bureau That WIN Interest
Tourists in State.

See Colorado First is motto that
is being exempllfed in most enec-
tive manner by William Paget, mana
ger of the Albany hotel in Denver,
formerly proprietor of the the colum-
bian hotel in this city. This prime
booster is taking the initiative in
move to establish a bureau of infor-
nation concerning Colorado, for the
benefit of tourists. The name of the
organization has not been selected but
it purpose viii be to cooperate with
the Hotel Mems Association and the
commercial organizations of the coun-
try in inducing tourists TO see all of
Colorado while they are in the dis
trict.
Far too many OF our Visitors" said
Mr.. Paget recently, make only a fly
ing visit to Denver and then leave for
Salt Lake City or some other point
out of the state. For their own pleas
ure and profit as we'll. they should be
furnished with more detailed informa-
ton concerning the Centennial state"
Mr.. Paget recently delivered an ad-
dress along this line to the members
of the Chamber OF Commerce at Fort
Collins How many of those pres
ent." he said. have heard of Steam
boat springs?" Instantly every hand
was raised. "Now. how many present
can tell OF some OF the attractions that
Steamboat Springs has for the pleas
ure seeker. or the investorG" No
hands were raised. How many
here" Paget continued. have heard
Of the prettiest natural resort in Col
crado. the stonewan vailey?" Only
a few present had ever heard OF Las
I Animas county's scenic resort. In
this manner Paget is emphasizing the
need of lnstructing the visitor about
all of Colorado. The plan has met
the hearty approval OF the hotel men.
the commercial bodies and the real
estate men Of the state. and its scope
is likely to be extended to eastern
! points. A secretary Of the organiza-
tion may be located in Chicago. Not
only the Albany hotel. but all OF Dem

by such a method of publicity and ed
ucation. Paget is the broad guage
