Canadian Weekly Newspapers As-
sociation in last 'week's issue we left
o0 at Vancouver. Following the two
days convention at Vancouver. .at
which 1,Vere discussed litany timely
topics of interest to the weekly news-
papers, and the entertainment
al-
ready referred to, theparty left in
the morning of June llth for ViG-
toria, The trip across the gulf of
Georgia by boat was a pleasing de-
viation to a party who had been
travelling for days by rail; The scen-
ery was ever entrancing.. 'l.'he dis-
tance is about 80 miles and it took
four lour to�,,nra,ke ;tyer,.trip. Arriv-
ing atl'ictoria oue is impressed with
the beauty of the harbor and the
grandeur of the buildings that greet
she eye: It is said that Victoria is the
only harbor where you enter at the
Front door. Before you is the pala-
tial C.P.R. Empress Hotel, one of the.
finest hostelries on the Pacific coast,
where the party made their' head-
quarters.
In the evening the newspaper
people were taken by auto to the
great Dominion Observatory which
houses one of the two largest tele-
scopes in the world, The party were
privileged to peep at the moon,' view-
ing only a small portion of the out-
er edge.
The following morning a motor
trip was taken over one of the many
beautiful drives that surround Vic-
tria, to the famous. Butchart Gar-
dens, a beauty spot where one
rambled and revelled aurid scenery
and atmosphere that lifts the soul to
a higher plane. It is impossible to
describe them. An old cement quarry
has been transferred by the work of
an artist to a veritable paradise. The
magnificent home of Mr. and Mrs.
Butchart, who came from Owen
Sound, was thrown open to the. visi-
tors. The return trip was made over
,a beautiful drive through trees and
shrubs. Victoria is, a beautiful city;
a city of flowers, roses, hedges, oak
trees, holly, trim boulevards, drives
and -parks. The - Flaming Scottish
Broom was at its best. These togeth-
er ;with the atmosphere were pulling.
ateour heart strings creating a long-
ing to linger amidst its beauty, but
we had to hasten on.
•At . Victoria we had the pleasure
of 'dining at tire beautiful home of
Mr. Charles French, superintendent.

lhe stay was all too short, as it
was the most beautiful, spot in the
Canadian Pacific Rockies,.
Our train proceeded on its way
to Banff where we were met by a
multitude of motor car's placed at the
is royal of the party bythe genial
d l
entertainers., tit0 and
'driven
by the famous Brewster Transfer
people who supply the thousands of'�
ponies required to "handle tate tre-'
rnendous pony traffic at the various
mountain hotels of ,the C.P.R.. Under
the shadow of .Mount Rundle, Sul
phter and Cascade Mountains,, we
were transferred to the delightfully'
situated Banff Springs Hotel, and.
here, the manager, Mr. Bengalia,
had made arrangements for a dance
for the young people in, the, 'ball-
room. A stay was made overnight
and the following day the Canadian
Pacific entertained the party to a
special drive to Lake Minnewknka,
a lake of somewhat stern beauty
with a plentiful supply of ash, thence
to the Cave and Basin and the golf
links along the beautiful Bow River'
in the heart. of the world renowned
Bow Valley. Here again pony rides
were the order of the day and a most
enjoyable luncheon was provided by
the hotel authorities. Access, to the
swimming pools was 'afforded all,
several taking two or three dips dur-
ing the day, while many enjoyed a
dip the evening of their arrival,
1`:dgary°
and brother of Mr.s E. A. Follicle -of
town At Vancouver we met Mr. J.
J. White, fornlerly editor of "The
Times" and Mrs. 'White, from Out-
look together with. Mr. arld `Mrs'.
Victor French, of Wetaskiwin. It
was a jolly re -union of Exeterites.
We also called ori Dr. E. R. Follick,,
who has a splendid dental practice
in Vancouver and- had the pleasure
of meeting Mr. and Mrs. Hill, the
latter being a sister of Mrs. George
Mantle, of town.
The return trip from Vancouver
commenced on Sunday, June 12th.
The trip out was by C.N.R. We were
now transferred to the C.P.R.' lines
and were taken in charge by Nit. A.
B. Calder. Mr. Calder personally
conducted the Prince of Wales on his
Canadian trip and last year he con-
ducted the Imperial Press excursion.
As a boy Mr. Calder was familiar
with the old "Huron. Tract" and re-
called the days, of the old, stage
coaches between. London and Gorier=
ich and of the Donelly tragedy in
Biddulph.
Starting the homeward journey
the C.P.R. follows the south shore of
Burrard Inlet and later descendsin-
tothe valley of the Fraser river,
famous for its salmon. The Fraser
river at this. time was running high.
The warm weather melted, the snow
on the mountains and the river'was
the highest it had been'in several
years.
We were soon to re-enter the -won-
drous, magnificent and enthralling
beauties of the. Rockies. The panor-
amic train of mountains, rivers and
canyon on the homeward journey
entranced the travellers as much,: if
not more, than the first journey tlrru
them. Twisting, turning and tunnel-
ling the traveller is lost • in admira-
tion of the splendid views as they
unfold and disappear. At times rail-
way and river seem to dispute the
passage through chasms of seeming-
ly verticaI rocky walls, standing not
many yards apart.
At Glacier the snow-capped moun-
tain Sir Donald rises a mile and a
quarter above the railway. Here the
trains enter the famous double -track
Connaught tunnel, five miles it.
length, the longest in Arn.erica.

rived at Field and an impromptu,
dance was held in the railway Y. I i.

Our train reached Calgary at S
•o?clock in the evening. Through the
courtesy of .the city a large sight-
seeing street car conveyed the party
around the city. At Calgary the
editor of The Times and his wife left
the party for a time and were taken
in charge by Mr. A. Z. Hicks, uncle
of the latter, and taken to Okatoks,
about 28 miles out, the centre of the
recent oil strike where Mr. Hicks
conducts a general store. The' fol-
lowing day..a light rain. fell which,
was much. ;appreciated ,by the farm-

forenoon .at Okatoks . we motored
