The executive committee of the organiza- | tion is composed of Ellas M. Am- mons, former goverhor of Colorado, | Frances Wayne, a newspaper feature writer, Halstead L. Ritter, a Denver | attorney, and John Brisben Walker, formerly editor of the Cosmopolitan Magazine, Holds Option. The committee announces it holds an option for the purchase, at a cost of $35,000, of a property near Mor- rison, Colo, which is admirably adapted in every way for a home and club house, with grounds large enough for a commodious building and 20 bungalows. The present din- ing room, kitchen and lobbies will ac- commodate 200 guests. The stone | building contains 43 bedrooms, hand- | somely furnished. A separate build- ing has eight servants’ rooms. The lawns contain attractive shrubbery, jand there is a 110-foot swimming | pool. The home will be opened as soon |as a fund of $50,000 has been se- cured. This will pay for the prop- erty in full and leave $15,000 in the treasury for equipment. It is hoped by the executive committee that ulti- mately a fund will be subscribed suf- ficient to build and furnish 500 rooms and 20 bungalows. The or- ganization is conducted without profit, and the executive committee gives its services without charge. Onc Member One Guest. Each membership in the associa- | tion, costing 1,000, entitles the sub- | seriber to send to the club home ane guest who will occupy his room free of charge and have meals furnished at actual cost. A number of large newspapers, according to the com- mittee, already have signified their intention of subscribing to the fund for the home. The executive committee hopes to | bring together for a week in July | next, in the club's mountain camp on | Mount Falcon, overlooking Denver, | two hundred of America's leading publishers, editors, artists, writers and | managers, At this meeting the execu- ‘tne committee will account for its ‘sl(‘\\ardshlp and turn over the prop- | erty to the board of regents, who will then appoint a new executive com- | mittee. If 50 memberships are sub- Iscrxbed without delay, the club house and mountain camp will be opened next May. Thirty years ago Colonel A, K. Mc- Clure, feeling keenly the conditions prevailing in the profession of jour- nalism, made . an effort toward a| similar organization. In 191% Henry ! Watterson, writing to John Brisben | Walker on the same subject said: “This movement has been too long delayed. If it could be carried through it would be a noble and beneficient work.” | H. H.
