From this latter city; now the second port in tonnage on the Pacific coast, you may take., either of two routes. One way by rail leads north and east, the other in a luxtirious steamer takes, you northward on an unforgettable voyage fon about Soo mi les until you come to the Young, thriving portof Prince Rupert ° From, here, a Canad- ian National train takes you eastward' for zoo miles, through rare and beau- tiful mountain scenery until you stop at the little town of Jasper. This up-to-date mountain .town of r,apo population with a picturesque railway depot, a clearing house .for, customs, shops, a bank, and two drug stores is but the nucleus of a great area of .mountain spaces, comprising 4,400 square miles, set apart •by the Canadian government. ../ Last summer a troupe of rnoy ie ac- tors staging 'a• Canadian theme, were up in this region trying 'by ;every il- lusion and art of the camera to bring. away realistic scenes. But all Holly- «rood challenged could not get the, ever-changing saffron tints on lake, nor catchthe fragrant,invigorating breath of larch and evergreen. Neither. could any film bring away that sense of quietude that comes as all things common and base slip away amidst the grandeur of mountain peaks. ' In this great country, fed by many glacial lakes, the Athabaska River coming eastward from the Rocky 'A/fountains, through five different ranges widen into a great valley be- fore it gradually changes its course on its long way towards the Arctic.' The trail beside this river is the one aboet which Sir Conan Doyle' wrote after his 'visit to this region in i914: "Ever more nay heart is with you, ever more till life shall fail, I'll be out with pack anct .packer on the Athabaska. trail." The trail has been iised for more, than a century by fur traders. Jasper House where the modern' hotel of to- day stands, was one of the many e a Rocky Mountain houses where traders s following mountain passes that,. led east or west, bought or exchanged ponies . of canoes according to" the needs of their different journeys. This wide valley of the Athabaska. provides opportunities for many and - It strength of character, cour- age, to persist when results are alto- ;gether adverse.
