UNION PRINTERS HOME

" he UNION PRINTERS HOME at
Colorado Springs. Colo, stands
as a monument TO the energy
and persistence Of the officers and
members Of the International Typo
graphical Union Of North America
Many things have been written and
said Of this institution. erected for the
benefit Of the sick aged and infirm
members, and the following sketch
Of the Home, by Charles Deacon. super
lntendent- gives good idea of its
magnitude.
The Union Printers Home completed
the second decade Of its existence Nay
u. 1872 The transformation that has
taken place since in the surroundings
Of the Home is well nigh marvellous.
twenty years ago on a barren hill in
the eastern section Of the city of Colo
RADIO Springs. the first building was
dedicated with music, speech and song,
but nowhere in the immediate vicinity
was there visible a tree or shrub or
blade Of cultivated grass-nOthing but
sage brush and prairie dogs. In the
space Of time that has elapsed since
then this barren waste has been made
TO blossom as the rose It has taken
much labor and not a little money to
accomplish this; but today we find tho
institution surrounded by acres OF
green lawn and hundreds Of flourish
ing shade trees. which provide ample
shelter for the fOOtsOre and weary
printer who seeks health and rest in
the perpetual sunshine Of Colorado.
Where once the road to the Home was
nothing but a "traiT DER the prairie,
today may be seen magnificent cement
walks on either side Of the driveway,
from the entrance to the grounds to
the very steps Of the main building.
The improvements in the building line
have kept pace with those Of the
grounds. and where originally one lone
building stood now may be seen a
