Banff Putting on Brilliant Carnival
(1) Ice palace on Banff main street during Carnival. (2) Mary Cross, Qneen of the Carnival. (3) Ice-boating is popu-1
lar at Lake Minnewanka nearby. (4) A typical dog-derby team.
TJanff in winter and a complete abandonment to the
joys of winter sports are synonymous. Thou
sands of people in all parts of the world have happy
. memories of Banff in summer time. Fewer people
' know of the joys of Banff in winter but this famed
■ mountain resort at this season of the year is becom
ing widely popular. The great annual winter carnival
there has become a classic, and is beginning to draw
its regular devotees as does the Mardi Gras at New
jOrkans and the Rose Tournament at Pasadena.
During the week of February 5 to 12 Banff will
once again be the scene of one of the most brilliant
; winter carnivals on the continent* The climate is
: ideal for every type of winter sport. The mpst ex-
; pert'fekiers and S.now-shoers on the continent will be
present to take part in the mafiy competitions. The . excellent Ski-jumps 'that are erected at Banff will pro
vide a test for the most,expert in this art. Fancy
. skaters will display their graceful art on the rinks,
which will also be the scene of many an exciting hoc*
’ key game. Tennis too is played on ice there. It is
a hew experiment in winter sports but provides plenty
of thrills* Ski-joring., tobogganing;, dog sled driving,
swimming in the hot sulphef pools on Sulpher moun-
i i&yib awi just a few of thp attractions of Banff dur-
ing the carnival. The scenery setting has not ita
equal in tlic world*
What Quebec City means to the east for its winter
sports, Banff means to the west. Calgary recently!
abandoned her winter carnival to join forces with the
mountain resort, Instead Of going to sleep for ther
winter like the bears that roam the near-by mounts
tains, Banff keeps awake and with the coming of the,
snows takes on a new lease of life. Visitors cornel
from every part of the world.. Ice palaces are builti
and the town takes on a gay and festive appearance^
The inset shows the Carnival Queen, Miss Mai*y Cross..
The championship dog derby to “The Top of tho
World and Back” will be an outstanding event of^thei
carnival. This event has become annual and provide®-
the longest and most thrilling dog race in the world,
being T73 miles in length and exceeding the famous
Pas Derby by 23 miles. The handsome Stronghearfc
trophy and substantial cash prizes attract the most
expert dog-mushers on the continent, ®
The finest and most picturesque toboggan Slide im
the Dominion is in operation at Banff this season. It?
is located high up on the side of Sulphei- mountain and! i
the start can readily be reached by motor car, Sit- i
uated bat a short distance from the curling club and)»
skating rink, visitors will be able to alternate b*i I
.tween these amusements, ’ ~ ~ " ..„-*#■
Hockey
HENSALL DEFEATS EXETER ■
Oh Tuesday the Hensall team de
feated the Exeter boy^ by a score of
3-2. The score at the finish was 2
to 2 anil ten minutes overtime was
played. The game throughout was
not of a very good brand, of hockey
The boys started to rough it from
the first gong and the referee let
most of it get away. This made
the ggme ragged and a poor brand
of hockey, Exeter opened the scor
ing a few minutes from the face-off
when Pollen took a long shot. A
few minutes later Willard scored on
a shot from close in. Hensall failed
to tally this period. From the start
of the second period Hensall tried
hard to regain the goals but could
not, Neither team scored during
this period. Quite a number of
penalties were handed out during
this period. The third period saw
the Hensall boys fighting hard to
tie the count and finally did when,
Shaddock and Blowes scored.
These were hard shots and Moir had
no time to save. The period ended
2 all and overtime was needed. Hen
sall scored the winning goal soon
after the start of the overtime. Dur
ing the last part of the overtime
Moir the local goal tender was hit
in the face with the puck, a slight
cut was made but no serious injury
done.

COMMUNICATION
Your article on breathing through
the nose last week created some in
terest among your readers and was
very timely at this season of the
year. Your statements as to the
injurious effects on throat, lungs,
teeth, voice and good looks from
breathing through the mouth are
very true, to which may also be
added the inhaling Of dust particles
directly to the lungs and a general
weakening of the natural stamind of
those who practice- it. A story is
told of an Indian who fought a
very much larger and an appareiitly
stronger man in New Brunswick.
After a fierce and prolonged struggle
the Indian came out victorious.
When asked if he were not afraid
to ’ tackle such a man he replied,
“Me not afraid to fight any man
who keeps his mouth open.”. Surely
parents and teachers will make an
earnest, effort to check such a seri
ous defect and may we not hope
that every child and young person
will heed the Warning.

TWO OUTSTANDING TOURS
It has been truly said that “Travel
is a liberal education” and- this ox
pression was never so true as it is
today. The whole world, so to
speak, has been made easy of access
by transportation systems, by rail,
ocean, automobile and aeroplane.
While the advantages ■ of travel aie
now available to the many instead
of the few, the refinments of mod
ern traveller as regards his creature
comfort have combined to make the
detailed arrangements of an exten
sive tourist trip rather complex.
Every traveller making aA vacation
trip wishes to derive the utmost
benefit in pleasure and education
and to spend as little time as pos
sible arranging its many details, the
itinerary and train connections, sec
uring sleeping car, steamer and
hotel reservations, etc. He desires
also to make the best possible use
of the time available by the inclusion
of the most important and worth
while attractions and above all, to
know how much it>will cost.
All this is done for you in the
“Personally Conducted All-Expense
Tours,” which have become so pop
ular' with the Canadian public, the
best known and most popular being
the splendid tours operated via the
■Canadian, National Railways,; u,nder
the direction of Mr. Martip Kerr, B,. A., (4 Beulah Ave., Hamilton, Ont.j
and Mr. A. E. Bryson, (44 Silver-
thorn Ave., Toronto, Ont.,^ of the
Kerr-Bryson Tours. Two more such
tours are announced for July, 1927,
one from Toronto through the Can
adian West to the Pacific Coast, in
cluding Wainwright Park, Jasper
National Park, the Triangle Tour,
Vancouver and
turning through
via Yellowstone
City, Denver,
Pike’s Peak and Chicago. The other
from Torbnto east to Montreal, Que
bec, Ste.I Anne de Beauqre, the
Saguenay River, the Maritime Pro
vinces, Saint John, N.B.; Prince Ed
ward Island, the Bras d’Or Lakes,
Halifax, N.S.; Land of Evangeline,
Annapolis Valley, Boston, Mass, and
finally Ottawa, the capital of the
Dominion. Descriptive booklets of
both these tours will be available
very shortly and in the meantime
further information may be secured
from any Canadian National Rail
way agent or from the organizers.
If you have not previously been
interested in these tours, it is well
worth your while to enquire about
them; they will solve your vacation
