It is surprising at what low cost

Tt is surprising at what low cost it is now possible to take an ex- tensive trip and broaden ones out look on life in even a short two weeks vacation. AS low as $100 will give one the equivalent of sea trip on a palatial liner with every com- fort and convenience, side trips or shore, beautiful scenery. music. dancing. and what have you. Or if one wants to see the west. he ran so in perfectly appointed pullman trains with leisurely stop-overs. Trips to Bermuda, Havana and other southern points in the colder sea- sons up north are also quite inex- pensiVe.
 We should particularly like to stress the point that our travel de- partment would be glad without charge or obligation to provide full | information and travel suggestions to anyone who is thinking about 1 taking a trip, Then when the tine ! comes to get foreign vises and cut l LII OuS II tllC liSStSfooiS icu NetPt GU tendant on a foreign trip, we will be able to expedite matters.
 Tn addition we can arrange to have travellers using our service met at foreign ports by experienced travel representatives, assisted through the customs. and otherwise sent ons their way rejoicing"
