THE TOWN DOCTOR (The Doctor of Towns) Says GO SOME PLACE }THIS YEAR At this time of year, there are several hundred thousand people. throughoutthe length and breadth of the land whoare thinking about vacation, and vacation, to mostt of them, means going some place. That is the way it should be. This is the greatest nation in the world for 'going places", and may such never cease. •To travel is to live. To sit„,sloth-like in one place is to see nothing, be nothing, feel nothing and next thing to knowing nothing. Travel el is education—the most pleasant form of education known to man for it "peoples the heart and mind with pictures that never fade. > Travelgives a character experience erience to our knowledge, and o f p brings the figures upon the tablet of memory into strong relief. Get away from the surroundings with which you are so "con- temptuously familiar". Get away from the daily grind—go places; see things and learn, by contact with those of a different clime. E you live South, go North—if your habitat is East, go West If you life on the plains, go look at an ocean, if you have never seen a moun- tain, go gaze at one, before you are any older. And in the doing; see what there is to see. Study how towns do things -how others who make their living as you male yours conduct their affairs. What you .learn depends solely on your natural powers and gift of conception, but regardless, you can't be the loser for such a venture. There are, in Canada,so many worthwhile :places to go — places that every Canadian should see and know about, that lack of a destination is no excuse. The National Capital, the National Parks, historical points, prominent in Canadian history—in every section of the Dominion of Canada, in your very own Province, there are places to go. But whatever you do, wherever you go, remember that you are an ambassador of the place where you live, and as such, "sell'' it to allthose with whom you come in contact. Don't "gush' 'about it,. don't overdo it, don't lie about it — just sell it. Copyrighted, 1929, A. D. Stone. Reproduction prohibited in whole or in part.

Buchanan, sponsor and backer of and rooter for the movement of boys to Alaska, is planning to take 50 or more to the far north the coming summer. Buchanan, who is president of the Detroit Coal Exchange and five coal companies and a bachelor, be- lieves that a trip to Alaska, pro- vided a boy partly earns his way, will be a wonderful formative in- cident in his life. He has already taken 300 boys to Alaska, and this will be his seventh annual person- alty conducted: tour. The boys, ages 9 to 17, must earn one-third of the cost of the trip ($125.00); the parents advance a third and Bachanan loans time boy -one third, which is to be repaid later at the boy's leisure. a Buchanan, who gets letters front all over the 'United States and Cain- ada addressed '"Alaska, Buchanan, Detroit," tells the boy who writes to him direct from anywhere how he "can earn his third by selling pencils, kitchen tongs, coal, steel ash baskets, etc. Boys who qualify go westward through Canadian Rockies, seeing Banff and Lake Louise, then north to Alaska on the "Princess Louise." They see the wonders of Alaska and return by the "Princess" to Vancouver and homeward through the United States, thus viewing the 'finest scenery in Canada, Alaska and the States. Buchanan goes with them, on evert)' trip and gives them his personal care, if they asked what he did got sick, he decidred that they aid ca Qe0, E..

"One boy gained 19 lbs. during the months tour,"said Buchanan, and everyboy has gone home a better boy physically, mentally and as a young business man. He has seen Alaska's wonders and has yarned part of the money to fin. ante the trip, which covers about 8,000 miles and lasts a whole month. One of my youngest hors, who is 5 years old, has already earned about $80, and if he gets his third together ern his own ef- forts, he will be in our party this summer, evenif " he is only t ;i x years old. Any boy, anywhere can go, provided, he gets his parents'' consent and earns his third."
