GERMAN TURNFEST
TO BRING MANY
THOUSANDS HERE

One of the greatest pieces of ad-
vertising Colorado ever secured will
result from the holding of the great
national German turnfest in Denver
next summer. German societies will
come from all over the United States
to take part in the contests An at
tendance OF many thousands is al
ready assured. These visitors are
now being told about Colorado's seen
ic attractions by the railroads that
hope to haul them. and every resort
in the state is certain 10 profit by
the influx of sightseers
There Is nothing elese in American
life that is quite like the German
Turnfests. Every city has its Ger
man societies or turnyereins. Every
four years these gather in national
festival. where they compete for
prizes in athletics, singing and dra-
matte productions.
Cincinnati had the turnfest in
1903. and it secured more than So
600 visitors. There were present on
ly l3 societies. Denver already has
80 societies pledged. six months in
advance of the festival, with every
prospect of getting 275 or 500 in all.
More people will come here from
1,
because the big railroads have spent
much money in telling The people
about Colorado's natural wonders.
A big STADIUM is to be erected in
Denver. where the athletic events
will be held Se,@e days there will
be from 1 900 to 10000 athletes on
the field at one time going through
their elaborate exercises. Singing
contests and dramatic presentations
will take place in the Denver Audito-
rum.
The Denver entertainment commit
tee, headed by the prominent banker,
Godfrey Schrimer, is working hard
to spread to every German society in
America accurate information about
Colorado's resorts. Every resort in
the state is being mentioned. with
its distance from Denver, the meth
DDS of reaching it, and its attractions.
The program of the festival will be
arranged so that the visitors will
have ample time to take trips all over
the state. The second week of the
funniest will be devoted almost en-
tirely to sightseeing. The visiting
Germans will leave Il great deal of
money in this state.
