CANON CITY
IS COMPLI
MENTED
Mr. B. C. Wade, state secretary of
the Young Men’s Christian Associa
tion, is in town assisting in a short,
quiet campaign for funds in suppoit
of the local association for the cui •
rent year. At a luncheon yesterday
noon Mr. Wade made flattering refer
ence to our city, its people, its clim
ate, its churches, and its Young Men’s
Christ!on Association. ‘A stranger
quickly notices the wholesome,
homey’ atmosphere of the place,"
?ald he, "and I have not yet found a
place that seems more desirable as a
place of residence for my family than
Canon City."
Referring to the churches he said
they would be a credit to cities many
times our size, and to the local a3Bo
elation he is of the opinion the good
work now being done is much greater
than is popularly understood. "You r
Bible class enrollment of 69 boys and
30 men Is most creditable, being sur
passed by only two other associations
in the state, and the work you an
doing through the "Boy Scouts,” the
Sunday School Base Ball League and
the entertainment course is of a high
order. Considering yonr present In
adequate facilities you are doing a
splendid, efficient work.”
The local directors have decided on
a campaign for a new building next
September and Mr. Wade believes
there is no doubt as to the. successful
Issue of that campaign. Trinidad Is
to have a similar campaign this
spring, as is also Cheyenne, Wyoming.
Mr. Wade reports association work
prosperous all over the state. On the
Western Slope county work Is being
developed. Delta county being already
organized. Preliminary work Is un
der way In Mts» and Garfield countlti
and the city of Montrose Is likely to
soon have a local association. Th?
Farmers Congress whiefc met at For 4
Collins last week passed a resolution
endorsing the coufffy iyp& oT"YV M. C.
A. work for rural communities, an *
commending it to the support of those
able to assist in its promotion.
The local canvass for funds, which
commenced yesterday noon, is meet
ing with a generally favorable re
sponse and Is evidence that our peo
ple arc not unappreciative of the good
work being done.

Many pictures of Canon City, as
well as points of scenic interest along
tbe cr4st of the hogback and in the
mountains between Three Mile spring
and the rim of the Grand Canon of
the Arkansas, were obtained and
constitute an exceptionally attractive
series of views. Borne negotiation was
carried on several months ago look

from the Skyline drive for biograph
machines, but as the lowest estimate
of the cost of such an undertaking
was two hundred and fifty dollars the,
proposition was abandoned. That thaj
work should be secured for nothing

part of the people of Canon City as it ■
cannot fail to be one of the most ef- j

presented endorsing the plan to turn !
over the internal revenue fund to th *

that it would deprive some of thj

but It was finally adopted by a vote of
twenty-one to ten The legislative
committee submitted a unanimous
report against the proposition to turn
