WOMEN VOTERS
LEAGUE TO OPEN
HOTEL AT PARK
Organization to Dedicate NeEU
State Hosiery at Turkey
Run May II.

The Indiana League of Women Voters,
meeting in annual convention at Lafay-
cite, will formally open the new hotel
at Turkey Run State Park May II. The
first hotel at this park was opened by
the Nature Study Club June 81, 1919.
Sessions of the league are scheduled
at Lafayette for May 8, 10 and II, clos
ing with a post-convention motor trip
from Lafayette to Turkey Run Park
Friday. May Il.
"This trip said Mrs. Walter Gree
nough, general chairman of the conven-
ton, lis planned, not only as a delight
full outing, but also as a wonderful OPP
portunity for many women voters of In
diana to become acquainted with one
phase of the work Of the conservation
department. We plan constantly for the
welfare of future generations. There is
no better way of beQueathing a rich
legacy to posterity than through preser-
vation of our natural resources, and par
tlcularly the beauty spots. providing they
are maintained without burdensome tax
alton. Turkey Run State Park represents
a primitive, wildly beautiful recreational
center that Is profitable investment for
Indiana, because it is self supporting
in fact, is a money maker"
The hotel addition to be formally opened
by the league is built at an angle to
the present hotel building and with park
cottages, forms a quadrangle 1t has
thirty-two rooms, finished in white, a
full basement and dining room, and is
modern in every appointment. The old
hotel will continue as the social hall
of the park, and. for the present, Is
the only part available for winter, as
it Is equipped with steam heat.
The value of Turkey Run lies In its
display of primitive nature and the pur-
pose Of the department is to preserve
this natural beauty in its original state.
The park was bought as a Centennial
gift and 1t must, therefore, be our
thought to preserve the spirit OF 1915
