3 CANADA'S MARITWE PROVINCES NOVA SCOTIA NEW BRUNSW RINCE EDWARD ISLAND THERE'S gripping Romance in the Sea! In the far-off days of the galley and the caravel, and later the square rigger and clipper ship, it spelled adventure the thrill of discovery, the challenge of the unknown. On its heaving bosom rode ships laden with silks and spices, gold and gems. Its uncharted ways were the haunts of roving buccaneers and the danger of pirate ships was added to the terror of its varying moods. The square riggers are gone, or almost so, but the romance lives on, and here in Canada's Maritime Provinces it grips you today as you while away carefree vacation days in sight and sound of the sea. If the old Norse sagas are true, the history of this land began with the voyage of Eric the Red to Markland, now recognized as Nova Scotia. Centuries later came the Cabots, John and Sebastian, contemporaries of Columbus, backed by Henry VII of England. To them goes credit for the first discovery of Canada in 1497, one year before Columbus reached the mainland farther south. From France came Jacques Cartier, De Monts and Champlain. Cabot made Cape Breton; Jacques Cartier, Prince Edward Island and the Gaspe Peninsula; De Monts and Champlain, Nova Scotia and New Brunswick. The first settlement in Canada was made by De Monts and Champlain at Annapolis Royal in 1605, and they discovered and named the Saint John River in New Brunswick on June 24, These early explorers all refer in their notes to the beauty of the Maritime Provinces. The modern "explorer" is likewise entranced. Here Nature has made a landscape which is reflected in the people, rugged as the seashore but kindly as the fruitful valleys which lie like jewels in a setting of azure hills. Seashore and valley, forest and hill, blend to make a masterpiece of scenic beauty which rivals the most exquisite work of an artist's brush. Low-lving sand-covered beaches where the surf rolls in as a gentle swell; forests where lordly moose, fleet-footed deer, and bear roam in sylvan depths of virgin wildness; swift-flowing rivers and impid lakes where sport the lively salmon and gamey trout; marshes where wild fowl love to linger all combine to make of these Provinces a vacationist's paradise. A veritable paradise it is for him who seeks the beauty of Nature or the Romance of history, who loves the feel of a taut line with spinning reel, or gun-stock pressed close against the cheek with the target a majestic specimen of moose or deer, or a flock of geese, brant or duck. On every hand are landmarks around which linger tales of love and war. Here in sanguinary battles were decided the destinies of the continent. The fall of Fort Beausejour, whose romantic ruins have been made a national park, sealed the fate of the Acadians and led to their exile to Massachusetts and the bayou country of Louisiana, the story of which is told in Longfellow's poem "Evangeline." Three years later, in 1758, the supposedly impregnable fortress at Louisburg in Cape Breton fell, thus opening the way for the Battle of the Plains of Abraham and the capitulation of Quebec which occurred the following year. The South Shore of Nova Scotia offers a wealth of romantic and historic interest. Place names perpetuate the memories of illustrious families and numerous landmarks bear witness to the stirring days that centred on this region during the French regime. Here, as elsewhere throughout the Maritime Provinces, students of history will bask in a delightful vacation environment as they pursue their search for new data to reconstruct the fabric of the shadowy and romantic past. New Englanders played an important part in the early history of these Provinces. It was partly by their efforts that Port Royal, now Annapolis Royal, in Nova Scotia, was reduced, and also Fort Beausejour and Louisburg.

At many places are perpetuated the customs and even the dress of those far-off days, and over all hovers the indescribable fascination of the sea great square riggers lying in some quaint seaport, with weathered sails drying in the sun, or huge modern ocean greyhounds entering orleaving busy harbours on their journeys to and from the ports of the world. CANADA'S MARITIME PROVINCES The Approach by Rail One of the most delightful ways of approach to the Maritime Provinces is along the south shore of the St. Lawrence from Montreal through the old-world portion of the Province of Quebec. Quaint villages, the picturesque battlements of the new-old city of Quebec on the opposite shore, river views of unsurpassing splendor, ribbon-like farms, extending from the railway line to its shores testifying to the historic background of the early seigneurs and settlers, give place to gorgeous woodland scenery as the base of the Gaspe Peninsula is passed, through the scenic gem of the Matapedia Valley and then along the North Shore of the Province of New Brunswick, the largest of the three Maritime Provinces. Montreal is particularly happy as a gateway in that so many Canadian National services converge there. The International Limited and Maple Leaf from Chicago and intermediate points, Detroit, Buffalo, Toronto are popular alike with the tourist visitor and the business traveller. From Washington, Baltimore, Philadelphia and New York, the "Washingtonian" from Boston, the "Ambassador" and "New Englander" afford convenient connections at Montreal R.M.S. "Lady Drake" in Halifax Harbour. The Ocean Limited, smart Canadian National train between Montreal and Halifax. PAGE Mil l<

5 with the luxurious "Ocean Limited" and "Maritime Express", so that passengers from Chicago, Detroit, Buffalo, etc., are set down in the heart of this delightful vacation region with but one change of cars at Montreal. There are, of course, other gateways to Canada's Maritime Provinces. One can enter from New York, Boston and other New England points by rail, via the Maine Border and the Loyalist City of Saint John, the principal city in New Brunswick. From Boston "The Gull" is an all year train with through sleeping cars to Halifax. Convenient connections are made for Prince Edward Island and Cape Breton and all points in the Maritime Provinces. The Approach by Water Visitors from the United States to whom a short sea trip would appeal as a preface to their visit to the Maritimes have two routes open to them, one by way of Saint John, in New Brunswick, and the other to Yarmouth, in Nova Scotia. By way of Saint John excellent service is afforded by the Eastern Steamship Corporation with regular sailings from Boston in the afternoon, arriving in Saint John the following morning. The Canadian National Steamships' regular fortnightly service from Halifax to Bermuda and the British West Indies via Boston, returning via Boston to Saint John, offers a particularly attractive route for New Englanders to and from the Maritime Provinces. Northbound from Boston steamer leaves Commonwealth Pier on alternate Thursdays, arriving Saint John the following day. Southbound steamer sails from Halifax on alternate Tuesdays and Boston is reached Thursday. By taking advantage of this convenient schedule it is possible to plan a delightful circle tour from New England and Atlantic Coast points via Boston to the Maritime Provinces, going and returning via C.N.S. steamers or using rail in one direction. Special round trip fares are in effect and your nearest Canadian National passenger representative (see list on page 30), will gladly supply full information, arrange reservations, etc. In this service are the "Lady Nelson," "Lady Drake" and "Lady Hawkins," luxurious yacht-like liners of 8,000 tons. The staterooms are all outside rooms, equipped with spacious beds and pullman upper berths. Many rooms have private bath; all are furnished with dressing-table, wardrobe, and running hot and cold water. The public rooms, garden lounge, dining-room and smoke-room are beautifully decorated and luxuriously furnished, and everything is spic and span and smart as on the finest trans-atlantic liner. Your vacation in Canada's Maritime Provinces becomes doubly memorable if you travel in at least one direction on a "Lady" boat. The Yarmouth gateway is also served by excellent steamship services operated by the Eastern Steamship Corporation with regular sailings from Boston during the summer season. This company also operates direct service between New York and Yarmouth during the summer. Canadian National trains make direct connection with steamers both at Saint John and Yarmouth, serving all points in the Maritimes. Your Vacation Plans On page 30 are listed Canadian National Railways passenger representatives who will gladly supply complete information as to train services, fares, routes and accommodations, and afford every assistance in completing your vacation plans. THE GASPE PENINSULA North of the Matapedia Valley lies a stretch of territory of some 1 1,400 square miles. It juts out into the Gulf of St. Lawrence a distance of approximately 170 miles. It is practically a virgin territory and contains a wealth of scenic, mineral, fishing, hunting and industrial possibilities. Picturesque fishing villages line the shores. The streams abound with salmon and trout, while the wild game consists of moose, caribou, elk, deer, bear, with fur bearing animals, the marten, fox, beaver, mink and lynx. The bays and marshes furnish ideal feeding grounds for duck, partridge, snipe, plover and migratory birds. At Perce is the famous Le Rocher Perce, the "Pierced Rock." It is a precipitous island rock, 1,400 feet long and 300 feet from the shore. Nearby is Bonaventure Island, a bird sanctuary where thousands of sea birds nest. Gaspe is another of the popular summering resorts of the Gaspe Peninsula. All this Gaspe and Baie de Chaleur country has been the scene of very stirring events in Canadian history. Somewhere in the vicinity of Gaspe village it was that Jacques Cartier landed on his first voyage in 1534, taking possession of the country "In the name of God and Francis I." More than one battle has taken place in its waters and on its shores. The latest war panorama staged at Gaspe was in 1914 when, at daybreak on a day in October, the troopships and convoy carrying the first Canadian contingent of 33,000 men to the World War secretly set sail. The Gaspe Peninsula, from Matapedia to Perce and Gaspe, is served bv the Canadian National Railwavs. PAGE FIVE

7 NEW BRUNSWICK The Province of New Brunswick is a land of lakes and rivers, of forests and streams. On the north the waters of the Gulf of St. Lawrence and the Strait of Northumberland wash its shores. On the southeast the waves and tides of the Bay of Fundy play hide and seek amid the curious shaped rocks and caves that line the shore. The tides of the Bay of Fundy are world-famed for their height, being among the highest in the world and rising in places to over fifty feet. The bay is about 180 miles in length and 45 miles wide. Salmon and trout leap in the rivers and streams, while in the fall of the year the lordly moose stalks forth, conquering and to be conquered. Deer also abound amidst the wallows and the tree-enleafed bowers of the forest. Bruin, greedily devouring some of the luscious berries with which the forest abounds, is often disturbed in his feast by the sound of the hunter and swiftly fades from view, unless cornered, when he fights with his back to the wall, like the old campaigner he is. The Restigouche River is part of the northern boundary of New Brunswick and its course is followed to Campbellton. The river is thickly dotted with low-lying islands, rich with meadow-land, their hues of green contrasting finely with the silver surface of the river. A square-rigger loading at Campbellton.

9 The Baie de Chaleur The Baie de Chaleur, ninety miles long and from fifteen to twenty-five miles wide, is one of the most beautiful havens on the continent of America. Jacques Cartier gave the bay its present name to commemorate the grateful warmth which he felt there. The railway runs close to its shores for many miles, and few fairer sights are to be seen than the broad and beautiful expanse of water, with its numerous little inlets on the New Brunswick side, and the lofty and imposing mountains rising grandly on the shore of Quebec. At Dalhousie, New Mills, Charlo, Jacquet River, Bathurst, Chatham, Newcastle and elsewhere are miles of the finest sand beaches sheltered by great groves of pine and spruce clean, hard sand where the tides do not leave a ripple-mark. At New Mills is Camp Bonaventure where American and Canadian boys spend the summer under supervision. This camp was organized in Cleveland and has been very successful. There are endless opportunities for the development of similar enterprises along all the coast. Fredericton, the capital of the Province, Bathurst, Newcastle, Chatham and Moncton are the principal points of departure for hunting and fishing expeditions. Newcastle and Chatham are centres of the Miramichi, and Bathurst of the Nepisiguit and Tetagouche districts, all noted hunting and fishing grounds. From Bathurst a branch of the Canadian National Railways runs along the coast to Caraquet, Shippegan and Tracadie. Along this line there are many noted trout streams and in autumn an almost unlimited quantity of wild geese, brant and duck. Moncton serves the big game hunting district of Albert County. Youghal Beach Youghal Beach, some four miles from Bathurst, has for long attracted summer visitors by virtue of its possession of the three essentials of a seaside summering place a clean, spacious beach, safe bathing at a pleasing temperature and good accommodation. Those vacationists who know Youghal call it "the perfect beach." Miles of clean, hard sand are lapped by the uniformly warm waters of Bathurst Basin, sheltered arm of the Baie de Chaleur, and sea and sun bathing occupy long hours of the day. The beach is lined with cottages and is ideal for children; the days are invariably warm, the nights cool and refreshing. Saint John, The Loyalist City Saint John is the Saint John River, after its long course of 450 miles, runs into the sea. Its harbour is open all year round and ever since its foundation it has been a great shipping port. There are numerous points of situated on the Bay of Fundy where historic and scenic interest in and around the city. Since La Tour built his fort in 1635 there have been various fortifications erected, the latest being the great stone Martello Tower, built in for the defence of Saint John. A place of interest to the student of history is the public archives, where are gathered together many important documents and other material connected with the early days of Acadia, and also of New England. On the east side of the harbour may be seen one of the world's largest, if not the largest, dry dock, with a length of 1,150 feet, a width of 125 feet and 42 feet on the sill.

All along its course are prosperous villages or summer resorts. Long lumber rafts float leisurely down the river and sailing or motor yachts dot its shaded reaches. The Saint John River is navigable for large river steamers 86 miles to Fredericton and for smaller craft for 200 miles farther up. The route may be varied by taking, in either direction, the Canadian National Railways, which follows the river course.

11 hundred years old. Above Fredericton are many places of interest such as Meductic, Woodstock, Centreville, St. Leonard, Edmundston and Grand Falls. Edmundston is the centre of a large forest area. The Saint John River offers opportunity for salmon fishing and is open to visitors, its waters not being under lease. Some fine fish have been taken from the river between Fredericton and Woodstock. From Fredericton the Canadian National runs through the beautiful Nashwaak Valley to Newcastle, on the north shore, along which are many vacation spots, and from St. Leonard it runs to Campbellton, the same remarks as to vacation spots applying. The Bay of Fundy The Bay of Fundy is not only navigable, but it has many large harbours, and, penetrating as it does far into the interior of Nova Scotia and New Brunswick, is of great value as a transportation medium. It is well stocked with fish and the source of great wealth from the salmon, cod, mackerel, shad and other varieties (saying nothing of sardines and "Digby Chickens") which its waters yield. The tides are among the highest in the world, rising over 50 feet and running at the rate of from one to one and a half miles an hour. At Moncton and some other points on the Petitcodiac River they are preceded by a solid wall of water which rolls in suddenly and the roar of which can be heard at a considerable distance. Vessels careened over on their sides, or shored high up in the air as though out of their native element altogether, are automatically righted and ride the waters again, and the flats are covered deep with the swirling water. The lush green fields and marshes are brimmed again, the rivers fill up, and for twelve hours the Bay of Fundy carries on as any other normal body of water. This phenomenon takes place over many miles of coast-line extending up Chignecto Bay, Minas Basin, on both the Nova Scotia and the New Brunswick coasts, and running fifty miles inland. On the River Avon the tide rises 50 feet. Wherever these tides operate, the land is dyked forming meadows of wonderful fertility, never requiring to be fertilized although cropped for nearly two hundred years. At long intervals the dykes, many of which were constructed by the Acadians when they first settled here, are opened to the fertilizing tides. From Saint John the route of the Canadian National Railways follows along the shore of Kennebecasis Bay and the beautiful Kennebecasis River valley, passing en route Rothesay, Hampton, Norton, Sussex, Petitcodiac, Salisbury. Between Saint John and Sussex are the suburban homes of Saint John people and there is also accommodation for summer visitors. At Hampton connection is made for St. Martins, a summer resort on the Bay of Fundy. At Apohaqui are medicinal springs of great value. Moncton, "Hub of the Maritimes" Moncton, "The Hub of the Maritimes," is the transportation centre for the Maritime Provinces and is the second city of size and importance in the province. It is a convenient centre from which to explore the surrounding country. A short distance from the city are Shediac, Point du Chene and Brule, seaside summering places. Close by is the largest fox ranch in the world. Buctouche and Cocagne are also nearby, as are also Rexton and Richibucto. "The Rocks" at Hopewell Cape are a peculiar formation of Nature, caused by the high tides of Fundy wearing away the softer portions of the soil. Havelock is also a place of interest nearby, as also are Gordon Falls near Elgin. Moncton is the Headquarters of the Atlantic Region of the Canadian National Railways and here also is CNRA,one of the broadcasting stations owned and operated by the Canadian National Railways. From Moncton the line of railway extends eastward to Sackville and from there, for Prince Edward Island points, to Cape Tormentine, where connection is made with a large steam car ferry which carries passengers and vehicles across the Strait of Northumberland to Prince Edward Island. Port Elgin and Cape Tormentine are well-known summer resorts. En route to Sackville, near which is the boundary between New Brunswick and Nova Scotia, the line passes Memramcook, best known as the location of St. Joseph's University which is the principal seat of learning not only for the Acadians of the Maritime Provinces but for many French-speaking youths from Quebec also. At Dorchester are the massive stone buildings of the Maritime penitentiary. About here are, also, the famous Tantramar Marshes which cover eighty square miles and are extraordinarily fertile as well as beautiful. Sackville is beautifully situated and is the seat of important educational institutions. THE Dining Car Service on the Canadian National Railways is justly famous among travellers the Continent over and every day brings fresh testimony from the patrons of the line expressive of the satisfaction that they have found in this very important feature of Canadian National Travel Service.

13 NOVA SCOTIA From Sack ville the route leads east ward, first passing through the marsh and dykelands of Cumberland, once held for the French and English monarchs respectively, by the great twin forts, Beausejour and Lawrence, about a mile apart and where the boundary between French and English territory was in dispute. The Missiquash River flows between and marks the boundary between New Brunswick and Nova Scotia. At Fort Lawrence are the grassy trenches and gun pit; the old parade ground is clearly defined and the cellars of Beaubassin, one of the oldest Acadian settlements, are still discernible. The main line of the railway cuts through the Fort Lawrence ridge, on which the fort was constructed, and slices off a corner of the ramparts. The ruins of Fort Beausejour, a strong and elaborate fort which had accommodation for 800 men, can also be seen from the train. They are preserved as a National Park. Amherst is a thriving town and one of the leading industrial centres of Nova Scotia. Continuing eastward, Maccan is the junction point for Joggins and Springhill Jet., for Springhill and Parrsboro. At Joggins and Springhill are extensive coal mines. Parrsboro, on Minas Basin, is a wellknown summer resort. Oxford Junction is a junction point forpictou,on the south shore ofnorthumberland Strait, where is located Pictou Lodge, a popular summer resort owned and operated by the Canadian National Railways. Along this line are such wellknown summering places as Pugwash, Wallace and Tatamagouche. The marshlands of Cumberland, and the Wentworth and Folleigh valleys between Amherst and Truro, are very fertile and beautiful. Truro is a junction point and is generally rated as one of the prettiest towns in the Maritime Provinces. The scenery as the route approaches Halifax, running through a lake country and finally along the shore of the beautiful Bedford Basin, is very fine. The Nova Scotian Hotel, Halifax, N.S.

15 of the first English settlement in From Dartmouth a branch of the Canadian National Railways runs 70 miles through the Musquodoboit Valley to Upper Musquodoboit. The railway follows the coastline and passes some beautiful sand beaches. Historic Halifax Cradled in history, Halifax was born in beauty. The loveliness of its parks and public gardens has been long renowned. The North-west Arm of the harbour a narrow inlet lined with beautiful homes, parks and club-houses is one of the finest aquatic playgrounds in the world. The Citadel, which crowns the heights of Halifax 275 feet above the harbour, is one of the best preserved and most interesting fortifications on the American continent. The naval and military history of Halifax, its tragedies and romances, would take a volume to relate. From here sailed the "Shannon" for that historic and gallant duel with the American warship, the "Chesapeake." Here the "Chesapeake" was towed in and dismantled after her brave fight, and some of her furnishings are still treasured possessions of Halifax people. Dartmouth lies across the harbour from Halifax, with which it is connected by ferry. It formed part Comfort without Extravagance WHEN you come to Halifax, stop at the Lord Nelson Hotel.

For further particulars write or wire resident manager or CANADIAN NATIONAL RAILWAYS HOTEL DEPT. - MONTREAL The South Shore For Americans, the most accessible part of Nova Scotia is that extending from Yarmouth to Halifax, known as the South Shore. Leaving Boston by steamer in the afternoon, the traveller arrives in Yarmouth the next morning, and, if he desires, may be in Halifax the same evening, practically a twenty-four-hour trip. The distance from Halifax to Yarmouth is about 250 miles by the Canadian National Railways and the line follows the coast for the greater part of the distance. Back from the coast there stretches to the interior a varied country of lakes, rivers and forests, where the traveller can step from train to automobile, to canoe, without a break. This is the lake country par excellence of a province where there are close on to a thousand lakes mapped. Yarmouth, the terminus of the water route from Boston and New York, is a thriving seaport. Large quantities of shipping have been owned here and the town is noted for the beauty of its gardens and hedges and its many comfortable residences. After Yarmouth come a number of pretty villages, including Tusket, the Argyles, the Pubnicos, mainly French, but here and there are place names to remind us of the changes which took place all along this coast under successive occupations of French, Highland Scotch and New England English. At Barrington may be seen a church built by pioneers from Cape Cod in This building is in a fine state of preservation and the interior furnishings are very quaint. There is also the grave of the maternal grandmother of John Howard Payne, author of "Home, Sweet Home." Shelburne, a beautiful town on a particularly beautiful bay and with an interesting history, is a delightful place. Wooden ship building is carried on here and some fine yachts have come from the yards as have also many other sailing craft. Shelburne has a magnificent harbour and extensive fisheries. Liverpool is another beautiful and historic town, situated at the mouth of the River Mersey. It has long had a great trade in fishing, shipping and the West Indies business. Lunenburg is the chief centre of the Canadian Atlantic fisheries, a great nursery for Canadian sailors and the home port of the "Bluenose," the famous champion of the International Fishermen's Races. The "Ovens," in the vicinity of Lunenburg, have long been an object of great interest. When there is a heavy sea on, the waves rush into them with a noise like the report of heavy guns. There are many of these caves which are constantly forming by the action of the sea. Bridgewater is an attractive town on the river La Have, which is navigable for large ships. Nearby is the site of Fort La Have, built by Razilly in Later, around 1700, it was a depot for pirates and was the centre of many exciting attacks and raids. The sail up this river is a very delightful one. From Bridgewater there is a branch line running across the peninsula through the Caledonia country- one of the best canoeing, hunting and fishing districts in the Maritime Provinces into the heart of.the land of Evangeline and the Annapolis Valley. From Caledonia Station the famed Rossignol district is reached. Chester, forty-five miles from Halifax, is one of the most fashionable summering places on the South Shore. Chester Bay is a lovely sheet of water, dotted with 365 islands. Hereabouts, notably on Oak Island, Captain Kidd and other buccaneers and privateers are said to have resorted and buried their treasure. Chester Basin is splendid for yachting and motor-boating. As at nearly every other of the larger centres, there is a golf course. When securing additional information or reservations please refer to advertisement in this booklet. PAGE SEVENTEEN

Truro to Mulgrave The eastern part of Nova Scotia is served exclusively by the Canadian National Railways. FromTruro to Mulgrave is a fine rolling, pastoral country country of pretty towns and villages where the route of the railway is for the most part inland; but at Stellarton there is a branch line to Pictou which takes one back to the sea again and Pictou should certainly be included in the itinerary of every traveller to Nova Scotia. In common with the majority of the eastern parts of the province, it was colonized by Highland Scotch a century and a half ago; and in all its essential characteristics, Scotch it still remains. Pictou town is a quaint old place with an excellent harbour. Founded in 1767 on the face of a steep hill rising from the water front; with its winding streets, old houses and church spires, Pictou retains today its old world atmosphere. The picturesque Magdalen Islands are reached from Pictou by semi-weekly service of the steamer "Lovat." A delightful short sea trip may be made to Charlottetown, on Prince Edward Island, in a steam yacht formerly the property of an Archduke of Austria and of the Morgan's of Philadelphia, Pa. Pictou Lodge A few miles out of the town, among the trees at Bay View, the Canadian National Railways has established a bungalow camp, Pictou Lodge. Here this modern idea in summer hotel accommodation has been developed in an unusually substantial and attractive manner. The Lodge is situated on an extensive property, embracing cultivated land, stately evergreens, noble driveways and green lawns. The cabins are located on the shore in the midst of the When securing additional information or reservations please rejer to advertisement in this booklet. PAGE NINETEEN

20 trees and looking out over Northumberland Strait towards Pictou Island. This coast is always free from fog and here is a splendid view of the Strait. On a fine day the outline of Prince Edward Island, 16 miles distant, can be plainly discerned. A large fresh water lagoon for boating and canoeing lies between the Lodge and the seashore. This summer hotel consists of a large central lodge, around which are grouped nine individual cabins, containing from four to six rooms, with running hot and cold water and cozy verandahs overlooking the water. Several of the cabins have open fireplaces and all are comfortably furnished and electrically lighted, with telephone connection in each room. The central Lodge contains the dining-hall and general lounge, with huge stone fireplace in which whole logs are burnt. The dining-hall will accommodate 150 guests and has a good floor for dancing. There are broad verandahs and comfortable chairs in profusion. The artistic buildings are constructed from selected hewn logs. There is a fine, hard sand bathing beach, where the water is of an agreeable temperature. Tennis, golf, fishing, and drives through the beautiful surrounding country may be enjoyed. There are few summer places offering so many attractions as this unique establishment among the evergreens at Pictou. Cape Breton This island, or group of islands, is one hundred miles long by eighty miles wide. It is unlike any other part of the continent of America in that the ocean, penetrating through very narrow inlets, forms a water area covering several hundred square miles, the Bras d'or Lake. This inland sea is in places sixty miles long by twenty miles wide, navigable for the largest ships, yet with a tide rise of only about a foot. In places it narrows to a stone's throw and again spreads out until one is almost out of sight of land. Its bosom is dotted with beautifully wooded islands; on its banks are little hamlets, thriving towns and peaceful farms. To steam for hours through an inland sea, invigorated by salt air but remote from the turbulence of the waves, through the mingled beauties of woods, mountains, sea and stream, along this "Arm of Gold," as the French well-named it, is a never forgotten experience. The eastern terminus of the Canadian National Railways is Sydney, and this is the most convenient centre from which to arrange excursions to all parts of the island. It is a modern city of about 20,000 population. It was little more than a village until Delightful days of seaside adventure. Mellow sunshine; cooling breezes. Here is the ideal family holiday haven with Pictou Lodge, a Canadian National Hotel, as your home de luxe. Safe bathing for the kiddies, at the ocean's edge. Nearby freshwater lagoon.

22 UK Port Royal, who commanded at this first capture. Driven from Port Royal, the French withdrew to Cape Breton and began the construction of a fort at Louisburg. Watched by the colonists in America with a jealous and fearful eye, they eventually resolved on its capture which they completed in It was again restored to France but was finally taken in At Glace Bay and Port Morien are fine bathing beaches, golf links and other outdoor attractions. At Mira Bay and River there are also good bathing beaches, favourite points for picnic excursions from Sydney and elsewhere. Mira River is a good route for canoe trips for 25 miles. It is noted for its excellent trout fishing. The North Shore of Cape Breton Baddeck, Cape Breton. about 1900 when the steel works, the largest in Canada, were built and great development took place in the coal industry also. The large places surrounding Sydney, North Sydney, Sydney Mines and Glace Bay, evidence this era of expansion. The harbour, on which Sydney, North Sydney and Sydney Mines are situated, is one of the best on the continent. During the Great War it was a concentration point for convoys proceeding overseas and as many as seventy big steamers sailed out of Sydney at one time. Being the chief bunkering point in Canada, the shipping of the port of the Sydneys is very great and almost every flag that flies may be seen in these waters. North Sydney ranks among the leading ports on this side of the Atlantic in the amount of shipping cleared there. It is the port of departure to Port aux Basques, Newfoundland. A short distance from Sydney is Louisburg, reached by a line of railway. This old French stronghold is the embodiment of the French and English struggle for domination in Acadia. The fort was taken and retaken repeatedly; and, remarkable to say, the most dramatic and successful attacks were those planned and carried out by the people of New England. A monument erected there by the Society of Colonial Wars commemorates this first capture. It was Nicholson, a New Englander, who effected the final capture of Annapolis in 1710, then known as One of the great attractions of Cape Breton is the diversified nature of its scenery. The north coast of the island is as wild and ruggedly beautiful as the Bras d'or Lake is lovely and placid. Days may be spent very advantageously in taking the water trips provided by comfortable steamers connecting with Canadian National Railways at Mulgrave, Grand Narrows, North Sydney and Sydney. The scenery on this north coast towards Bay St. Lawrence is much like that along portions of the coast of Scotland. There are tall cliff's and bold mountains, but cozy villages nestle at their feet. Bay St. Lawrence is the most easterly point in Canada. At Ingonish the Portuguese made their first settlement over 400 years ago. There is excellent surf bathing along the coast and tuna and sword-fish are much in evidence. There are small, comfortable hotels of the "homey" type where the traveller who drops off the boat for a few days will find good fare and true highland hospitality. The people have mixed little with the outside world and are engagingly primitive, retaining those traits of proud self-respect and traditional hospitality typical of the Highland Scotch. The coast towers over a thousand feet above the sea in places, such as "Smoky," or Cap Enfume as the French named it. St. Ann's is another point of interest on this shore. It was one of the final points in Cape Breton to which European fishermen used to come; and when the French decided to build a great fortress in Cape Breton, it was a toss-up whether it or Louisburg would be chosen as the site. St. Ann's Bay is one of the finest natural harbours imaginable, being a great circular body of deep water surrounded by rolling hills, except at the narrow entrance. PAGE I SI V-TWO

24 Bras d'or Lake There are many other points of interest and beauty along the north shore where the steamers from Sydney stop on their daily schedule. The trip through the beautiful Bras d'or Lake up to Baddeck, Whycocomagh and Mulgrave is made by steamers from Sydney. It is a voyage of perfect delight, over the calm waters of this beautiful inland sea. A steamer also runs to Baddeck from Iona, a point on the Canadian National. Baddeck has long been a favourite resort for American tourists and contains some beautiful summer homes. On the top of Beinn Bhreagh (the gaelic for "Beautiful Mountain") is the palatial home of the late Doctor Alexander Graham Bell, the inventor of the telephone. He lived there for many years, and there he was buried. Some of the earliest experiments in flying heavier-thanair machines were conducted at Baddeck by Dr. Bell and his associates, and the first flight in Canada was made here. It is the centre of a domestic industry for the manufacture of hooked mats, rugs and other furnishings of the sort. The sailing, fishing and camping around Baddeck, Whycocomagh and Margaree are unsurpassed. There are points where the sportsman may stand on bridges on the main road from Whycocomagh and fill his basket with trout. PRINCE EDWARD ISLAND Here you will find an ideal summer vacation land, the Island Province of Canada, intensively cultivated and charmingly beautiful. It is familiarly referred to as "The Cradle of Confederation," "The Million Acre Farm," "The Garden of the Gulf," and was originally called by its Micmac aborigines "Abegweit" which means "cradled on the waves." You will be made welcome by a hospitable people in an environment and atmosphere peculiarly conducive to rest and recuperation; where wearied bodies and tired minds are quickly revived, and overstrung nerves are gently and quietly restored to normal ways. For the growing child the island provides healthful and strengthening surroundings, pure food, invigorating sea air, safe beaches, wide open spaces, woods and green fields. Prince Edward Island is also the home of a unique and rapidly growing Canadian industry, which originated and has had its largest and most successful development here the breeding of black foxes. Animals of the strain developed on Prince Edward Island are shipped all over the world, wherever fox breeding is carried on. There are over 600 fox ranches The Margaree Valley The Margaree River and Valley is one of the most beautiful drives in America. The Margaree salmon pools, about 30 miles from Baddeck, are free to fishermen on payment of a small fee for regular nonresident's fishing licence and good sport is assured. A feature of these pools is the late fall fishing, unique among salmon fishing streams. In almost every portion of this part of Cape Breton excellent fishing is to be had with very little trouble. There are splendid roads all over Cape Breton with a diversity of lake, sea and mountain scenery which is unsurpassed.

Several rivers on the island offer good sea and brook trout fishing, and there is an abundance of game birds. Charlottetown is the capital, commercial, educational and administrative centre. It is one of the beautiful cities of the Maritime Provinces and has had a long history, dating from the years when it was a French garrison. It was chosen as such mainly because of its fine harbour and commanding location. Summerside, the second place of size and importance on Prince Edward Island, is a prosperous and attractive town, the centre of what is probably the There are few places most thriving part of the island. in Canada of equal size that can boast such good stores. In the rear of the town is a hill from which one of the most beautiful views in the province can be secured, looking out over Northumberland Strait with the coast-line of New Brunswick in the distance. In the other direction is Richmond Bay, crowned with its beautiful islands, the Gulf of St. Lawrence and the Atlantic ocean beyond it. There are few towns or villages on the island which lack some feature making them worth a visit and such places as Alberton, Tignish, Elmira, Souris, Georgetown and Montague have every one of them a charm or a quaintness peculiarly its own. NEWFOUNDLAND When Newfoundland was discovered at the close of the fifteenth century, the corner-stone of the British Empire was laid. True to its first love it has always abided, for while Canada for three centuries was dominated by France, and the Republic of the United States was born after three hundred years of English rule, Newfoundland has always remained British. The island possesses immense riches in its forests, mines and fisheries, yet it has another pleasant heritage to offer men and women for it is Nature's playground. Its call to holiday seekers is compelling its climate is seductive, its landscapes are magnificent, its coast scenery beyond compare, its people are hospitable to a fault and its inland lakes and rivers teem with the finest sporting fish that are known. As Newfoundland is many hundreds of miles nearer to Europe than any other part of the North American continent, it was inevitable that when the first Atlantic cable was laid in 1866 the old world should be connected with the new on Newfoundland's shores. It also has the distinction of receiving the first trans-atlantic wireless message at Cabot Tower, St. John's, on December 12th, The next spectacular event was when the first non-stop trans-atlantic flight by Alcock and Brown was made in 1919 and Newfoundland was selected as the "jumping-off spot," to be followed by the first non-stop solo flight ever to be made across the Atlantic by a woman when Amelia Earhart Putnam put off from Harbour Grace in a monoplane on May 20th, 1932, and came down in Ireland the next day. Harbour Grace has figured in several aerial exploits connected with trans- Atlantic crossings. Newfoundland is reached by way of the Canadian National Railways to North Sydney, thence by Newfoundland Government Railway's steamer to Port aux Basques and from there by rail to various points in the colony. Newfoundland may be reached also by direct steamship service from Halifax, N.S.

BERMUDA AND THE BRITISH WEST INDIES There lie within a few days' sail of the x-\tlantic ports of Canada, the world's most alluring and beautiful islands lands that are set in sapphire seas, caressed by soft winds, bathed in brilliant sunshine and festooned in a luxuryofvegetation thatsurpasses man's conception. The way to these lands of the Caribbean is by the new eight thousand ton liners of the Canadian National Steamships Company. These ships, which are the very latest product of modern achievement in sea transportation, containing every feature for the comfort, safety and pleasure of their passengers, are operated fortnightly along two routes from Canada to the West Indies. Three ships have been allocated to what is commonly referred to as the "Eastern Route," sailing all the year round from Halifax, Nova Scotia, and calling, in the order named, at Boston, Mass., Bermuda, St. Kitts, Nevis, Antigua, Montserrat, Dominica, St. Lucia, Barbados, St. Vincent, Grenada, Trinidad, and British Guiana. Northbound the ships reverse the order of calls as scheduled above, but, instead of returning to Halifax direct, go from Bermuda to Boston, Mass., thence to Saint John, New Brunswick, where they land passengers and such freight as is consigned to and through that port, after which they proceed to Halifax to load for the voyage south. The other two ships have been placed on what is known as the "Western Route" and during the months May to November, inclusive, sail from Montreal, and for the balance of the year from Halifax, for Jamaica, calling en route, both northbound and southbound, at Boston, Mass., Bermuda, and Nassau in the Bahamas. They turn at Kingston, Jamaica, for the homeward voyage. Connection with Belize, British Honduras, is made at Kingston by a smaller boat of the Canadian National Steamships. At several points these services afford connection, both ways, with New York and other American ports, as well as with Great Britain and the Continent. Reference has already been made to the convenient service offered by Canadian National Steamships, northbound Boston to Saint John and returning from Halifax to Boston. (See page 5.) The five new liners which operate in these services have been named, appropriately, after the wives of five British Admirals whose lives and service to the Empire were dedicated to, and intimately associated with, the exploration, colonization, conquest and defence of what are now the British possessions of the Caribbean Sea: R.M.S. Lady Hawkins, R.M.S. Lady Drake, R.M.S. Lady Somers, R.M.S. Ladv Rodnev and R.M.S. Ladv Nelson. PAGE TWENTY-NINE
