The latest thing in cruise fares is the institution of Tourist Class on the Mediterranean Cruise by the Empress of Australia; and for a minimum of $300 a 69-day cruise that calls at 25 ports ds now available, Palestine, the Nile, Cairo and the Pyramids, Rhodes —site of the famous Colossus—Barcelona, Casablanca, Gibraltar and Fun­ chal, Madeira, where Mrs. Chris­ topher Columbus was born, are high lights of the cruise which leaves New York January 31st. Tourist accommodation in the magnificent 22,000-ton Empress of Australia is famous for its comfort as thousands of students, teachers, and professors who have crossed the Atlantic in the speedy vessel know. Divided by the 69 days of the cruise, which allows a stopover in England and return Tourist Class by any Canadian Pacific liner—even the Blue Rib­ bon holding Empress of Britain— works out at a daily cost of a lit­ tle less than $4.36. It is believed that the new rate will introduce the joys of winter cruising in sunny southern lati­ tudes to many who have not been able to enjoy such a holiday be­ fore, Good-bye “Oscar,” said the uanx manager, “there’ll be a vacancy here soon, and I’m thinking of giving your twin brother the job.” “My twin brother?” exclaimed Os­ car in surprise. “Yes, the one I saw watching a ball game yesterday while you were at your aunt’s fttneral,” explained the manager.
