In view of these circumstances, reports received by the Canadian National Railways indicate that the trend of travel this winter is now westward to the Pacific slope of British Columbia via the Jasper National Park route. Pleasant in Winter This Pacific Coast region has been rightfully named the "Ever- green Playground" and visitors to Vancouver and Victoria soon learn of the mellowing influence of warm ocean currents which serve to maintain pleasant tem- peratures throughout the Winter months. For the energetic, golf is available on links playable the year round, while for anglers, steeihead trout and tyee salmon abound in the inland and coastal waters of British Columbia , • The Continental Limited train of the Canadian National Rail- ways assures air-conditioned com- fort via "the Jasper Park Way", providing daily services from the East, through the Rockies to Van- couver, at low winter fares, • HAVE YOU HEARD?

They still remain a serviceable article with Trans -Canada Air Lines, however. The small conifers are stuck in the snow at intervals along land- ing strips to nark the edges of runways used by T.C.A. aircraft in Northern Ontario and across the prairies. The airline has just issued a bulletin to stations re- minding them to shake the trees after each snowfall "so that the dark branches may eontinue to stand out well from the air.
