and Club Woman, Soon to
Leave Denver

Mrs. Ida De Priest, for four years a
copy clerk in the office of the clerk
and recorder of the city and county Of
Denver, is soon to leave for an eX-
tended visit to California and the Pa
cific coast states. Mrs. De Priest is
one of our most valued women ana has
been a strong factor in all things per-
tanning to the progress and uplift of
the race in Colorado. A graduate of
East, Denver high school, n woman Of
unusually brilliant intellectual attain
ments, and forceful public speaker,
Mrs. De Priest has long held front
rank as a worthy example of Christian
leadership and character. In the feld
of politics Mrs. De Priest has been uni
formly successful and her well known
capabilities and loyalty has won for
her many high honors.
For forur years she was a clerk in
the secretary of states office and ac-
quilted herself in the same high man
ner that has always characterized her
efforts.
On Tuesday, July 10, she severed her
connection with the office of clerk and
recorder, where with Mrs. 7. e. Nc
Claim and Mrs. r. B. Bolden, record
for efficiency has been hung up that
will stand for some time.
In going to California, Mrs. De
Priest will carry with her the prayers
and hearty good wishes of scores of
white as well as her host or colored
friends.
For five years she has served on the
executive committee of the Denver
Branch n. A. A. c. p, and as such has
rendered the race yeoman service by
her counsels and wisdom. California
will be richer in many ways by having
this strong race woman take up her
permanent abode in that state.
