WONDERFUL VIEWS OF
NORTH AMERICAN ALPS

The Grand Trunk Pacific Rail-
way Company has just issued two

magnificent booklets. They are
“The North American Alps” and
“California, 1915.” Both are

splendid specimens of the print-
er’s art, and are profusely illus-
trated with beautifully clear half-
tones.

“The North American Alps” is
a wonderful scenic picture gal-
lery, which will surprise even the
people of the North. The G, T. P.
are sparing neither trouble nor
expense in bringing the features
of this northern fairyland before
the eyes of the world, and deserve
every credit for their enterprise.
“California, 1915" is an illus-
trated guide to the Panama-Paci-
fie exposition, showing how the
tourist should get there and de-
scribing the various features of
the fair.

 

F. W. Hart will call for tend-
ers tomorrow for the removal of
the muskeg from the site of the
new Hart Opera House.
