May IS to November 80, the tour
ist can roam over the vast West
ern area, pausing here and there for
an attractive city or spectacular
display Of scenery at rates as low as
cents a mile for sleeping car travel.
The area over which this fare ap-
plies - from Chicago north toward
Alaska and southwark to Mexico-is
unprecedented in American railroad
history. So also Is the comfortable
equipment, for on every line Of the
Western United States the principal
trains will afford the freshness OF
clean and cool air. Millions Of dollars
have been spent to give the tourist
the benefit Of this travel luxury

Eastern roads. which also have ad-
ded improved facilities, will cooper
ate in this great Western movement
Certain fare reductions will be
granted by other lines serving Chi
cago from the East, although the

point of the tours. Round trip tickets
for the Western jaunt may be pur-
chased at any station, however.
THE lower-price bracket includes

Of these services. Western lines have
eliminated the surcharge on sleep

In some cases side trips to ma
tional parks and other interesting
places have been thrown In free, or
q substantial reduction in price made.
Included are the Fort Peck Dam in
Eastern Montana, the Grand Coulee
Dam in Washington, Bonneville Dam,
Oregon, and Boulder Dam.
Western trains, which have for years
boasted of excellent dining car SER
vices and cuisine, have raised the
standard while revising the prices
downward, it is reported Three full
meals-breakfast, luncheon and din
ner-are now offered each day for
less than the price of the lowest
pari-mutuel ticket at Pimlico.
Red tape has been cut, also. Un-
limited stop-overs, within the Novem-
ber 80 deadline, can be obtained by
simply notifying the conductor as
one nears city. Arrangements with
the Eastern carriers permit baggage
to be checked through over any Of
the Western roads.
CCORES of itineraries are offered at

Is one: From Chicago, northwest to

Coach class travel over this route
is the thriftiest, and is $28.65 less

The conmemoration Of the 25th

his name, his portrait and his per-

his father, King Edward VII, as
sovereign of the United Kingdom and

Y OLLYWOOD, May 4.-The
Summer tourist season is on,
and the big question with 90
Il Il out of 100 tourists, Summer
or Winter, Is How can I
see a studio?"
Because Hollywood welcomes the
tourist but the busy studios don't, it
IS q problem. The chances are that
he won't get "in," but that needn't
be too discouraging. There are things
to see too from the vantage point Of
"out." The customary shielding
fences do not shut out the view en-
tirely, and there's no law against
looking.
HERE are some Of the glimpses OF
1 l studio life that can be obtained
Just driving along outside:

Warner Bros. frequently uses when
its Burbank lot is crowded. Anybody.

In John Barrymore's two versions OF

mantle note: This boat was one OF
the sets whereon the romance Of
Barrymore and Dolores Costello bios

The Hollywood StudioS-Paramount,
R-K-O- Radio, Fox Western Avenue,
and United Artists, offer but scant
reward. Paramount used to have an
ocean liner fronting on Marathon
street, but this was torn down to make
way for De Miles old English castles
for "The CruSades."
R-K-O and Fox's Hollywood studios
are walled in by fences and bill
boards proclaiming new pictures.
United Artists, like other studios when
production is on, usually affords
glimpses Of costumed extras in the
streets, especially around the noon
hour when the lunch break" is
called. This is especially colorful
during production on period flm.

Camped at Falmouth.

Buckley said Holmes sometimes
motored to Fredericksburg, Va,
through Falmouth. just this side of
the bridge across the Rappahannock.
In November of 1862, the captain re-
joined his regiment, encamped there,
and told his fellow officers of dinner
at "Parker's" in Boston, which he had
attended with nine other officers of
the regiment. home with him on
sick leave. One may imagine the
envy with which the story of the
dinner was heard-the anxious in
quiries of loved ones at home. The
chauffeur would drive the justice along
the wide, smooth pavement that now
runs between Washington and Freder-
icksburg, to the place on the hill
above Fredericksburg where the Twen-
tieth was encamped, or over the bat
tlef1elds of Fredericksburg and Chan
cellorsville, where, in May Of 1858,
he received his last wound from a
bullet that crashed into his heel.
Buckley recalls that Holmes once
told a jesting friend it was not true
he received this wound while running,
but while lying on the ground.
That was long time ago-70 years
before he stepped for the last time
from the bench at the Supreme Court.
