The travel dollar circulates through out our '.economy, encouraging industry and commerce and im proved tourist facilities, and creates more employment. , Having painted a picture of Canada’s numerous vacation at tractions, Miss Lane suggested that' travel can be “fun" for the whole family, if a few simple plans, are- made before starting the trip- Her tested and tried hints covered such things, as travelling with child ren,' budgeting, camping; an'd that important question for all women—wardrobe selection.

Miss Lucille Bond, accompan ied Mr. -and’ Mfrs; Wes. Holland, Valerie and Richard to Niagara Falls on Sunday to visit with BY DOROTHY BARKER Keeping pace with the- jet age, CN has announced its plan for pioneering in turibofrain ■transportation-. Several'' dozen . reporters at a press- conference in Montreal . fired questions with bilingual enthusiasm- at a # group of executives repre senting ON .and United Aircraft Corporation. „ the latter being the designers of the train. In its progressive -program, endeavoring, to meet transpor tation competition both in price and service, Canada’s puplicly owned railway has un veiled its intention of celebrat ing the country’s birthday by launching into service this- ‘far out’ passenger train. “It is most appropriate,” Mr. Donald Gordian, president, said s in a statement, “that the intro duction of CN’s new turbotrairi service, the iriost significant innovation in,the technology of railway passenger service in the last hundited years, is being aimed to coincide with Can ada’s Centennial and the ex pected upsurge of- travel that Will be stimulated by such events as Expo 67." Convincing in (his remarks, N. J. MacMillan, ON executive • vice-presiderit, said that the turbotrains have “a sound -bus iness prospective". To begin with they will be operated under a lease-maintenance con-, tract between the railway and UAC between Toronto and . Montreal. CN has an option to purchase the equipment should this prove more practical than the system of lease-mainten ance. The trains and the tur bines will be built in Canada. Time — to use an aid cliche — is of the essence and one of the compelling factors in CN’s decision to be the .first railway in Canada to undertake srich a Of an completely new concept in pas senger transportation. Trust A Woman From my feminine point view, being able to travel the ground at a speed equal to that made from downtown to downtown by -air is exciting. Especially when the time can be spenlt in such interesting surroundings as those promised far the new trains. I am a constant 'speedometer watcher, sensitive to all motion. Peak speed far the turbotrain will hardly be noticed as it has been engineered to take all curves and the straightaway with per fect safety and comfort. This newest wonder on wheels Hooks1 like a gigantic ca terpillar with a hump fore and aft. The (latter provide the housing for the turbo engines which are practically noiseless and run on any type of airplane or diesel fuel. These are dome cars which will be parlor car accommodation or lounges as well. Such questions as price per ticket arid prospects for ex tended service in the industrial corridor .between Quebec and1 Windsor were deftly handled by Jean Richer, vice-president passenger sales and 'service. He was honest in his replies; stat ing that only at a later date when plans ate, more fully de veloped, can ithe. railway pos sibly make such details' availa ble for publication. “All nelw equipment must have the bugs taken out before its performance is confirmed”, he commented. Besides Expo 67, the maiden turbotrairi trip (could it pos sibly be christened ZIP?) will provide hours of pleasant an ticipation for this regrettably hon-lbilingual columnist _______MRS LLOYD BOND - Phone 482-32j0 relatives there.

(Canadian Forces Photo) ; From My Window Call Me Mommy I Would suppose that every-’ . thing that can be written about motherhood has been put on paper at one time or another — but when you are- involved per sonally 'in the miracle of 'giving birth, you begin to feel .as though it has happened but once -and never will come Ito pass' again. Mothers "notoriously delight in endless prattle about preg nancy, delivery and the little bundle of joy they produce-. Take any gathering of young mothers, drop the key. word “baby" and lengthy detailed or ations about everything from toxemia to hospital menus will ensue, I have no intention; of boring 1 you with a descriptive account of the past few months — nor will I risk nauseating you with, glowing reports of the physical fitness and mental aptitudes of our new son. It is enough that you know he is hale, hearty and harassing. What has amazed me' about the entire episode is. the man ner in which a few relatives and friends have received the 1 news of our blessed event. In shocked; open-mouthed, surprise,. these startled souls have gazed' with wonder at our bouncing boy and exclaimed, “Why didn’t you tell me you were expecting?" Queries like this leave me wondebing whether they might have prevented the mishap had they known.
