, to the haunts of a summer evenings hide andseek. to the fish.ng rendezvous, to the summer camp, to the woodedtrails where the arbutus grew, to the old barn or deserted dwelling thatdrew its enchantment from its eerie environment. Or it may have beena pathway, trod in later years, whose overhanging boughs and romanticlights and shadows gave it the name of Lovers Lane . Favorite trails of boy or girl typify the best in life, and, withthe passing of the years, they become time-hallowed. In imaginationtheir charms are exaggerated, while in reality they seem to diminish inlength, breadth and importance. There is often a wide difference betweenthe original and the picture, for although youths little by-paths remainunchanged, the appreciative spirit of youth passes on, leaving but a fanci-ful recollection of its ideal. It is only through the renewal of that spiritthat the real wonder-days of the child are to be recalled. And that is what Colorado accomplishes. It renews the spiritof youth.
