WELL sing of the beauties where Nature Colorado, its wonders well sing;With its wonderful mountains there, so high,Our Centennial State were passing by. Well sing of the beauties where Nature has the waterfall and many a spring;Many are its beauties, treasures there the lovely valleys in beauty abound. Well sing of the beauties where Nature has been;Of its flowers and roses, their fragrance doth bringWith its canyons and caves many wonders are seenFrom the snow-capped peaks flows many a stream. 89 •.

Let us sing of the Royal Gorge; There for ages so proudly it beauties can never be told, Far away in the foreign lands. August, 1905. THE GARDEN OF THE GODS. WE will sing of Natures won
