Ens|s"d Tries
Land Cruises

NEW YORK, Aug. 11.-Fol-
lowing the successful example
of the British steamship lines,
which in the last several years
have handled a greater number
of ocean cruise passengers than
any other country in the world,
the British railroads are trying
an adaptation of land CRUISES"
as an experiment, according to
information received at the New
York office of Thomas Cook
& Son-WagonS-LitS, Inc.
The London, Midland and
Scottish Railway has just put
into effect a schedule of train
cruises through the country
side, after office hours, from
selected cities such as Birmlng-
ham and Standardization.
The sightseeing trains, for
which exceptionally low fares
are charged, are made up OF
coaches suitable for observation
purposes and travel at reduced
speed past the most beautiful
stretches of scenery. In most
cases they return home by diff
ferent route from the outward
journey.
They allow an hour or two at
the principal place of interest
in the cruise, arriving home late
the same evening.

Model Of Liner
On Display

No longer is it necessary for
one interested in inspecting
the exterior of the French Line
flagship lie de France to wait
until that great ship arrives
in this port. and then make a
trip to the liners West 18TH
Street pier.
For the lie de France is on
display in Rockefeller Center.
A huge model of the famous
vessel, complete in every de-
tail of it's exterior appearance
and valued at several thousand
dollars, which was seen by mil
lions of visitors to Chicago's
Century of Progress. has been
given a handsome setting at the
Fifth Avenue ground floor store
in the Maison FrancaiSe. at the
corner of 49th Street, recently
opened jointly by the French
Line and the Railways of
France as an exhibition and in
formation office.
The model itself is 16 feet
long, and is enclosed in a
specially built plate glass case
II feet in length, the full
length sheets of glass being
cemented together SO as to
make upright supports unnec-
essary and giving a full and un-
broken view of the model from

ist who chooses Switzerland as
his summer hunting ground.
Also, all the leading resorts
have organized groups of climb
ing parties, led by experienced,
veteran guides, and this form
of sport is proving more popu-
lar than ever.
There are SO many places to
go, and so much to do! Stop
for a moment in Lucerne, and
pay your respects to the mighty
Lion, famous in song and
story! Watch the tennis tour

Arosa Tennis Club, in the
Grisons, toward the end of Sep

Go motorboating on Lake
Geneva at night, and be en-
chanted by the exquisite effect
of the lights strung along the
Promenade.
In Zurich, gaze upon the
Charlemagne Memorial ir the
GrosSmunster Tower, and see
how much you can remember
of the great emperor, that was
taught in school. Lunch at the
monastery, and see how friend
ly the huge St. Bernard dogs
really are, atop their mighty
mountain pass.
And, best of all-get up at
sunrise, at least once, during
your stay, and watch the snowy
peaks turn from gray to rose,
from rose to gold, from gold to
flame, as the sun paints them
in the creScendo of colors of
his own ascending glory.

at the local headquarters of
Thomas Cook g. Son-Wagons-
Lifts, Inc.
A weekly service will be in
operation from ASyut to ESWan
First Cataract from December
l to March 2, inclusive. In

ness of the st. Gothard tun-
mel, one arrives in dazzling
sunshine, to find the simmer
ing blue mirror of Lake Lugano
set like a jewel in the sur
rounding green. In Paradise
we'll named, indeed-eXcellent
hotels await one. The beach, at
the Lido, on the lake, provides
one with perfect sunbathing
opportunities. where the lazier
members of the party may loll
and rest, while watching their
more energetic friends disport-
ing themselves in the blue
water.
There are all types of sport
available, and the beauty of
the scenery makes mountain
climbing almost impossible to
resist!
st. Moritz needs no descrip-
tion-it has been sportsman's
paradise for too many years.
Suffice to say, that it is as per-
feet in summer. as it is in win
ter, and that the loveliness of the
Engadine is a never-failing
source of pleasure.
Roads Improved
A great improvement has
taken place in Switzerland in
the last few years. The
automobile roads and general
motoring conditions have been
brought up to date in the most
modern way, and thus a new
Joy has been added to the tour

The JeWeEllKe lakes neStllng
at the foot of the hills, reflect
the majesty of the mighty peaks
in their shining surfaces, and
everywhere the true spirit of
leisure and healthful play is evil
dent.
Lot To Do
There is so much to do, in
Switzerland, that I would take
far more space than I am al
lowed to tell you of its varied
pleasures.
If one loves old cities, and his
toric sightSeeing-one may go to
Berne, capital of Switzerland,
lying in a cup of green, lovely
country, surrounded by tn e
snowy range of the Bernese
Oberland.
One may stand on the wide
verandaS of the hotel, and see
the regal crest of the Jungfrau
painted roSy-red by the declining
sun. The air is like Wine-I
know of no other way to de-
scribe its vital and tonic quail
ties.
In the quaint streets Of the
town, where most of the shop
ping is done along arcade-cov-
cred streets, one pauses on the
stroke of noon to watch the
clock in the thirteenth century
freSCoed Clock Tower ring out
the hour, and spring into magic
activity with its hammer-Wield-
ing gnomeS, its appearing and
disappearing king. its procession
of apostles, its Growing rooSterS
and its bears.
All Kinds of Bears
And, speaking of bears-they
are everywhere in the city of
Berne. From the enorl>Ious live
ones in the city bear pit. to
their appearance in sugar icing
on the delicious Swiss honey
cakes, in all the bakeshop
windows, they are an integral
part of the BerneSe scene.
Carved wooden ones are eag-
erly bought by touriStS-and
they can be procured in an as
toniShing range of sizes-from
huge one, heavy enough for
door-stops. to tiny ones small
enough to wear as bracelet
charm!
If the visitor to Switzerland
wishes for a more active vaca-
tion-he has a wide choice of
Fairgrounds at his disposal.
One of the loveliest of these is
at Lugano-in the Italian part
of the Alps.

Local Railroads Enjoying Boom
In PASSENGER TraEfic

Washington railroads are en-
joying q boom in passenger
business.
Some very interesting facts
and figures showing the in
crease in this class Of business
for the railroads, and the city,
have been collected by the
Washington Passenger Associa-
ton. In fact, the information
collected indicates the railroad
officials anticipated the chang
ing conditions and that it is
their opinion the improvement
is permanent and not tempo
rary increase due to the NRA
and other new activities.
AS far back as 1927, the fol-
lowing foreign lines opened pas
senger-soliciting offices in Wash
ington: Canadian National,
Gulf Coast Lines, International
and Great Northern, Missouri
Pacific. and Southern Pacific.
In 1880 the Cotton Belt
opened an office, and in 1882
the Missouri, Kansas and Texas.

offices.
When these foreign lines
moved in they found o!d-timers
the Norfolk and Western and
the Canadian Pacific. From
available records these two lines
opened a joint passenger office
on Pennsylvania avenue fifty
years ago.
The story is that the passen-

Vast Jasper Park
Is Worlds Largest

The largest national play
ground in the world is Jasper
National Park, Alberta. 1t has
an area of more than 4,2OO
square miles and is situated en-
tirely within the far-famed
Rocky Mountains of Canada.
Although there are several
hundred miles of motor road
within the boundaries of the
park, leading to many points of
interest, no such roads enter or
leave the park. and access to
the playground is had by means
of Canada's most northerly rail
road line, the main route OF
which cuts through the center

worked together on railroads In
the States and there was a SEN
timental as we'll as a business
angle to the establishment of
the joint office back in 1884.
The election of a foreign line
man, the general agent of the
Missouri Pacific, president OF
the Washington Passenger Asso-
citation for 1884, started the
railroad men collecting the
data.
All Lines Changed
Local as we'll as foreign lines
anticipated the changing condi-
tions.
In 1923 the Southern Railway,
having sold its building on Penn
sylvania Avenue to the Govern
ment, considered moving its
headquarters to Atlanta.
A number of the Southern de-
partmentS were moved to At
lanta, but the president and
most of the high officials re-
manned in Washington, moving
to the new Southern building
in Mcpherson Square.
Railroads do not open new
offices and promote their pas
senger officials, at least in re-
cent years, without very good
reason. The number of trains
moving into and out Of the
union stations in five principal
cities on Friday. December %,
gives a clue to the reason:
Washington. 208 trains.
St. Paul, 191 trains.
St. Louis, 1877 trains.
Kansas City, 174 trains.
Cincinnati. 1865 trains.
Chicago has union station,
but also a number of other
station, so was not included.
Air Conditioning
Air conditioning of passenger
equipment is one of the most
important advances in pas
senger service that has been
made by the railroads. This
Improvement originated in
Washington with the Baltimore
and Ohio Railroad and Wash
ington has been the center
of the improvement.
A dining car, the Martha
Washington. placed in service
between Washington and Cum
berland on April IA, 1880. was
the first practical operation of
air conditioned passenger equip
ment. This car was the re-
suit of ten years of expert
mental work. The B. ana o.
next put on an air conditioned
train, the Columbian, between
Washington and New York on
May "a, 1881.
On Washington's birthday,
February %, 1882, the CheSa
peake and Ohio announced that
a new train, the George Wash
ington, a completely air con-
ditioned, long distance train,
would soon be placed in opera
ton from washington to Gin
cinnati, and the West.
The Pennsylvania has been
keeping up to date on air con-
ditioning, and, in addition, will
soon have electric trains op-
Grating into Washington that
will be the last word in i'm
proved railroad passenger ser
vice.
On February 16 the Union
Pacific had on exhibition at
the Union Station its bullet
shaped aluminium alloy train,
a radical departure in railroad
passenger equipment. This
train was built in Chicago and
moved to Washington for its
first examination by the public,
further evidence of the grow
ing Importance of the city as
a railroad passenger center.
