You have to go there—see the grandeur of its mountains—feel the bracing cli- mate—enjoy yourself in pas- times characteristic of this American Switzerland; riding, driving along roads that run over the crest of lofty moun- tains—through forest covered valleys. Besides you have ten- nis, golf, baseball—any of the outdoor sports you’re used to athome. Bathing places, fam- ous for the medicinal quality of their waters—beautiful parks, in the shadow of the Rocky Mountains, where bands play, the latest ‘‘wrinkle’’ in amuse- ment features is found. The is the industrial side of the state, too—enormous steel works—smelters, etc. Visit Colorado this summer.
