Colorado Chautauqua Ten Years Old.
The assembly which opens
July 4th. 1907. at Boulder, Colo.,
will be the tenth one held on the
grounds of this "association.
From an uncertain experiment
I at the beginning it has grown to
l be of the few really great assem-
wi;t' blies of the country and the
I greatest in the West. This has
wife, j come about from a settled policy
I of giving to its patrons the very
wife, [ best obtainable talent regardless
.!of cost and at all times minimiz-
wiie | jng expense of attendance,
j This assembly is closely pattern-:
; ed after the parent Chautauqua of'
New York. Its sessions are long i
enough to admit of a strong edu-;
cational feature, and the Sum-'
mer School has come to be one of.
its popular departments. In it
thirteen regulary organized
schools are maintained under the
direction of specialists. Besides
the class room work a moore
popular form of education is of-
fered in the lyceum. where the
most noted educators of the
country deliver courses of lec-
tures. The evenings are given
up to social functions and audi-
torium entertainments.
The tenth anniversary number
of the general announcement of
this assembly has just been is-
sued. It is a neat little volume
of forty- four pages, well illus-
trated .with typical western
scenes, and presenting with full-
ness the charm of life among the
mountains of Colorado. It also
gives a detailed account of the
platform program and the Sum-
mer School courses. Twenty
thousand copies have been issued
for free distribution.
Three kinds of excursions' are
described: Railway excursions,
carriage drives and mountain
climbs. Some verv attractive
trips are offered under each head:
amoung them being the famous
Georgetown Loop trip, trip, the
Wild Flower excursion, through
Platte canon, Snowball excursion,
up Boulder canon to the falls, to j
Arapahoe glacier and?ih*er lake, i
up the new Flagstaff road, and j
many others.
At this Assembly the choice is!
offered between tent and cottage)
life. All about the grounds com-;
fortable, little cottages have |
been erected and many of them !
are for rent to visitors. Among!
these cottages many tents are'
pitched and furnished during j
the session, thus making ideal
camping canditions. The
grounds are most beautifully laid
out and are parked, and taken
all in all there is no site in
America more beutiful or better
adapted for building up an assem-
bly of international importance.
The attendance for 1907 promises
to be larger than durintr any
previous session.
