WINTER PLAN OF
GREAT NORTHERN
Through Sleeping Car Service
From Winnipeg to Los An
geles Once a Week.

BY International News Service
ST. PAUL, Mimi, Sept. % The
Great Northern railroad is making ar
rangements to establish for the first
time in the history Of railroadine a
through sleeping car service from Win
nipeg to Los Angeles, making a
through service from Canada to the
southwestern section of the United
States without change.
The new arrangement will be put
into operation December /. 1t is
planned to have a sleeper attached to
the Great Northern train ON one day
each week during the winter, This
car will be run through to st. Paul,
where it will be attached to the train
of the Northwestern line for Omaha
and from that point will connect with
the Union Pacific for California points.
Officials of the road say that the
arrangement is in the nature of an
experiment, and if the demand is great
enough daily service will be estab-
lished. 1t is said that hundreds of
prosperous Canadians desire to travel
to a warmer climate during the winter
and the car is for their accommoda-
tion.
