An unfamiliar language . . new habits and racial characteristics different from ours . . $11 the red tape of port rules, immigration and customs officials . . the choosing of guides, hotels and conveyances . . everything costs the traveller energy that ought to be left free for sightseeing. Everything generally costs him more in money than he'd planned for, too, human nature being what it is. Bright eyes survey his landing, nimble brains register, 'Aha, a new one. He doesn't know his way around " This isn't slandering our foreign brothers; it happens to visitors landing in our own country. The travel-wise man foresees all this. He doesn't jump off into the blue. Neither does he trust to personal long-distance arrangements made in advance by letter or cable. He puts the whole business into the hands of experts who have met every difficulty so many times before that the very best solution has been worked out and crystallized more or less into a formula which contracts for efficiency and good results but seeks to leave with the individual traveller something else than "organized travel." The Canadian Pacific is the World's Greatest Travel System. Its cruises are undertaken in its own ships . . one management ship and shore. From the time the traveller crosses the gangway at the beginning of the trip until he walks off again, laden with memories, snapshots and loot . . he hasn't had to make a single decision that had to do with the "mechanics" of travel. He has gone everywhere . . seen everything . . used the best hotels . . had the best guides . . been presented with a hundred and one surprises in the way of entertainment . . and never once has he wasted a single ounce of strength on the wearisome task of "making arrangements." Also . . money has been saved for him in every port, money that he can spend in purchases abroad, or find in the bank waiting for him on his return. // such service is valuable on a short cruise . . how infinitely more important it becomes when he starts off on the longest trip he ever plans to take, and circles the whole shining globe. 5 CANADIAN PACIFIC I The Cruise With Included Excursions At each port there will be a comprehensive program of sightseeing, and trips into the interior will be made at several places, as outlined in the following pages, all of which are included in the fare for the cruise. At each point visited a competent staff of guides will be on hand, the best motors or carriages available and special trains engaged, and where noted, meals and rooms at principal hotels provided for. Every detail has been carefully planned and arranged in advance, to make every moment of the shore excursions count.

You loll in your deck chair . . read . . make friends . . dance every night or go to the movies . . attend a lecture on Madeira, so you'll know your mental way around when you get there. And here we are at Funchal . . a harbor dancing in the sunlight, a town that climbs the mountain with steep little streets, gay little houses and brilliant gardens where the roses, the azaleas and the bougainvillea are rivalled only by the clothes of the people. We go ashore by launch. New ways of transportation are awaiting us . . the quaint sleds that slide over the rounded cobble stones, looking like old 4-posters drawn by bullocks . . and up we go, to see the Vigia Gardens, the shops, the churches and the tablet in the Rua Dereita that marks the site of the home of Mr. and Mrs. Christopher Columbus, no less. How could he ever have worried about discovering America when he could sit in the middle of his flowers, murmur the island's name to an understanding soul and look at the sea as he sipped? Tonight . . there's a ball at the Casino. Tuesday we go by bullock carroes (4-posters again) to Pombal Station where we climb by special train on the cog-wheel railway to Terreiro da Lucta, 3285 feet into the blue. Those of us seeking a new thrill will come down in carrinhos- do-monte . . wicker sleds that slide over the cobbles with men on the end of ropes for steering purposes . . perfectly safe, but one of the world's unique experiences. Some will prefer to descend more sedately by the railway to join us for luncheon in town. The afternoon will be free, but we'll all want Madeira linens to fill in part of it. Madeira has many quaint customs, but none more picturesque than the use of these bullock carroes CANADIAN PACIFIC Gibraltar DECEMBER 12 X he most famous rock in the world . . captured by the Moors in 711 a.d. with a castle still there to prove it . . held for 700 years as the key to Spain . . captured by the Duke of Medina-Sidonia in 1492 and kept for a turbulent generation . . then taken by the Spanish who ruled it for two hundred more unquiet years. What a grim history of siege and counter-siege for the 1400-foot crag that a playful Hercules is supposed to have tossed up when he broke a channel through from the Mediterranean to the Atlantic! But when we sail up, to berth inside the Admiralty Breakwater, the date of dates for us will be 1704, when Great Britain took the Couchant Lion to hold him ever since, despite the famous 4-year siege in 1779 when Spain tried vainly to get him back. Carriages and guides will be ready for us, and we'll see as many of the galleries and fortifications as are open to the public, thrilled to think of the tremendous caverns that are closed to us, the honeycomb passageways that hold the Empire's secrets of defense, the tremendous paraphernalia of modern warfare that holds the Straits in thrall. From the gloom of rock riven entrenchments we'll drive in the sunshine to Rosia Bay for a colossal view of the Straits and the beckoning coast of Africa beyond. Back in town . . we'll shop. Gibraltar offers us a little bit of everything we'll find else- where along the Mediterranean, giving us, in addition, thoso picturesque Hindoo merchants whom we won't meet again till we're half way round the world. Many of our cruise members have had the good fortune to be in Gibraltar during the maneuvers of the British Mediterranean Fleet. This is a sight long to be remembered, for here is every conceivable kind of warship r ' „ ..,,, .. ~0 y7„ „, -,. u known to the modern navy.

S5, Si V. o I Sj to ^^ o *^ *-, Si Si to CO a *^ rO CANADIAN PACIFIC Algiers, Algeria DECEMBER 13 and 14 1 he loveliest, once wickedest, city in North Africa . . a name to conjure with from the days of the Barbary corsairs who ruled the seas, captured 300 ships and 600,000 Christian slaves and terrorized the whole world till France drove them out of their stronghold and ruled it ever since. Today, Algiers has quarters old as Barbarossa . . blind streets of tall windowless houses that climb the hills. But it also has shops, cafes and luxurious hotels that are thoroughly Parisian, for, in addition to carrying on its duties as a legend-haunted African capital, it must take care of the smart international set who crave their Riviera life against a more dramatic background. The Empress of Australia will probably moor stern onto the quay, so we can walk ashore and find guides and motor cars waiting to carry us along the Boulevard de la Republique and down the Bab-Azoum, the famous shopping street. (Algerians call it "The Gate of Grief," because that's what it is to those who look but can't buy!) We'll see the Arab quarter, too, .. those secret streets, those shuffling slippered figures, the strangely costumed people, doing their buying and selling, their eating and sleeping, their praying and gambling in full public view, portraying the East in all the primitive conditions of five hundred years ago. Then luncheon and we're free to shop. . for French perfumes and frocks. . for brass, silk shawls, tinted leathers, rugs and jewelry too lovely and barbaric to be resisted. We may easily find Algiers difficult to leave, such sparkling Arab eyes no veil could hide, and such an endless assortment of new things to eat The Arab Quarter of Algiers with its mysterious white-robed veiled women and drink and buy. 10 Algiers—the minarets from which the Muezzin calls the faithful to prayer are truly the East CANADIAN PACIFIC Monaco and Monte Carlo DECEMBER 16 Beautiful Monaco, seated in serene white loveliness on its rocky pinnacle above the blue Mediterranean, most highly advertised of all earth's famous places, advertised through its so human frailties, its "chic," its appeal to the ultra smart of five continents. Monte Carlo, the Mecca of the Faithful of Fortunas, the devotees of the little ivory ball, the turn of a card. Famous men and women, lured by the rainbow gold of chance, have frequented the beautiful Casino rooms. Fortunes have been won and lost here. Hearts have sung to the lilt of swift fortune or been swept away to the nadir of tense despair. Monaco and Monte Carlo . . all things to all men but beautiful always. Our ship will anchor in the bay, the tender will take us in, our cars will whirl us off along the Grande Corniche . . the most famous motor road in the world . . up to La Turbie, down to Nice again- where we'll have luncheon at one of the smart hotels on the Promenade des Anglais by the sea. Then we'll return by way of Villefranche and Beaulieu to Monte Carlo, where tea will be served. Back to the ship . . for a dance on board after dinner, if we don't decide to try our luck at the Casino. The ship sails at 7 a.m. Wise travellers will be up to watch the Riviera coast roll by. When viewed from La Turbie the coastline of Monaco presents a true Riviera picture 12 ROUND THE WORLD CRUISE Naples, Italy DECEMBER 18 and 19 Here's the grand opera city . . gayety in the eyes and the smiles and the clothes of the people . . dancing comes as natural as eating and sleeping and praying and loving, and Naples does them all where we can see. We can go to the National Museum and the Aquarium . . and we'll never find more interesting examples . . or we can stay out in the sun, in the park by the Villa Nazionale and down by the arches of the San Carlo Theatre where girls who can't write dictate their love letters. Motor cars are at our disposal for half a day's sightseeing . . then . . Our special train departs for Pompeii, surely one of the places that nobody will want to miss. In 79 a.d., it was one of the richest, most decadently luxurious cities of the old Imperial world. Then Vesuvius turned over in his sleep, and Pompeii was buried from sight for nearly seventeen centuries. Today, we can walk along its streets, fitting our irreverent toes into ruts made by Roman chariot wheels. We can peep into the House of the Faun, the Temple of Isis, the House of Glaucus . . . (Do we remember it in "The Last Days of Pompeii"?) History rolls back for us, and we can almost see Nydia the Blind Girl smiling at us across that waste of years. The remainder of the time, we can prowl around Naples at our own sweet will, or we can consider three attractive optional excursions. The Amalfi-Sorrento drive . . all dazzling sun, cascading hills and shining sea . . a rival to the Grande Corniche; or Vesuvius . . grand plume-crowned devil with a mouth 2300 feet deep and wider still across; or Caserta . . that beauty spot so little visited . . see page 84. ■"--->-:--!-'--- •"•^VS."' •--_•—:-;--■•=- -•••■•----••.-o"-^-->-;?""= --::%*->'. -: --•-■". j-f^VL---;-;*-^-;^ * ■*-".-■-:■*-: Old Vesuvius can usually be relied upon to provide the artistic background for Naples and its famous Bay 13 ROUND THE WORLD CRUISE Athens, Greece DECEMBER 22 We anchor at Phaleron Bay, making our way shoreward among stately ships and picturesque sailing craft. In ancient times, there was a long walled road to the capital, but now we have motor cars to whisk us toward a city that is as holy to the lovers of beauty as is Jerusalem to the religious. Here we're going to find three towns in one . . the twisted lanes of the Athens that was little more than a Turkish village before the Greek War of Independence, the broad straight streets of the modern capital and the thrilling ruins, clustering round the Acropolis, that stand to us for "the Glory that was Greece." To climb the Acropolis at sunset and look out from its five-hundred-foot vantage point over the lovely rolling country is one of those pilgrimages into the gorgeous past that has few rivals and no equal in the world. The Sphinx under the noonday sun, Nikko on a still afternoon, the Temple of Heaven in Peking . . these are as impressive, but the roots of our own civilization do not spring from them. The Parthenon, to us, is beauty's very self. We'll take a drive around Athens, of course . . seeing the Gardens of the former Royal Palace, the Theatre of Dionysius, the monuments, the Temple of Zeus, the Theseum, best preserved of all. We'll visit the museums, more interesting here than anywhere else in Europe. We'll spin away to Marathon, and, on that wide historic plain, catch a far-off vision of the runners who started for Athens with their tremendous news . . . Never again can the ancient world seem like dead words in a book. To those of us who believe that what man has done, man can do again, the Golden Age in the future will be more solidly limned against the chaos of today. Athens is being visited for the first time by our Round the World Cruise. The Parthenon is one of its principal attractions CANADIAN PACIFIC Christmas in the Holy Land DECEMBER 24 to 27 Whether you believe with shining faith . . or merely hope . . or hold yourself aloof from all religion . . Palestine, so little and so greatly loved, so drenched in blood and pain, so crowned as goal of human hearts through all the centuries, can never fail to move you as you come to it at Christmas Time. Here are, perhaps, the earliest names that stirred you as a child . . places you met again in chivalry and splendor when you read of the Crusades . . . The Holy Land is strange to none of us; we lived here, once upon a time. Jerusalem and Bethlehem . . David and Abraham and Ruth . . the Christ Child in the Manger, the Wise Men and the Shepherds . . • the magic of such names as these has brought long centuries of pilgrim feet struggling half way across a world to stand where we have come so easily. Our ship anchors in the roadstead at Haifa, we're brought ashore in big flat-bottomed barges towed by tugs and a special train takes us to Jerusalem. Here is the City of David, destroyed and rebuilt so often that some of the original streets are 80 feet underground, but traces of the wall of Herod's time are still seen at the Wailing Place of the Jews. David's Tower is standing, too, as it stood in the days of Christ. On Mount Moriah is the splendid Mosque of Omar, but history tells us that this was the site of Solomon's Temple, incomparably lovelier still, and tradition carrying us back another thousand years, asserts that Abraham and Isaac climbed the stark hill of sacrifice. Nearby is the Garden of Gethsemane. Yonder is Calvary with the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, guarding the Tomb of Christ. But this is Christmas . . the season of the Manger, not the Cross . . and Bethlehem, only a few miles away is our natural goal. The road keeps to the route by which the Wise Men left Herod, following the Star. It passes the Field of Boaz, Rachael's Tomb, the place where David slew Goliath. And so we reach the "Little Town" itself and find the Church of the Nativity, the oldest Christian church in the world, built above the grotto where tradition says that Christ was born, and here burn 15 lamps fed day and night forever. We can attend service, or, if we wish, visit the Shepherds' Field on Christmas Eve. For two days and a half we shall be in and about Jerusalem and visit every spot hallowed by history and legend . . the Garden of Gethsemane, the Mount of Olives, the Via Dolorosa, the mosques and churches. An optional excursion includes Nazareth, Tiberias, and the Sea of Galilee; another . . Jericho and the Dead Sea . . see page 86; 16 L/. ROtfNfj THE WORLD CRUISE and everywhere we find that eager faith identifies this well with Mary's, that grotto with the Carpenter's Shop, and this sweet gushing spring with the one from which the water was drawn to be turned into wine. But even if we smile tenderly at such credulity . . though it may cover truth, who knows? . . our eyes will linger on the hillsides which can never change and on the fishermen who haul their nets ashore as Peter did . . . And then we motor back across the brightening centuries, step on our special train the morning of December 27 and head for Cairo, arriving there the same evening.

Perhaps some of the passengers have elected to stay on board, too, preferring to take Christmas gaily in Cairo, rather than with the mystical exaltation of the Holy Land. If so . . and they made up their minds before leaving New York . . accommodations have been reserved for them at a smart hotel, with no extra expense involved. The rest of us arrive in Cairo from Jerusalem on the evening of December 27, ready for four half-days of sightseeing, and at least one hectic all-night session beginning New Year's Eve . . for nowhere does the Old Year flee more dramatically to the sound of popping corks and dancing feet than in the cosmopolitan hotels at which we stay. Cairo is a city of a million . . the largest and most notable in Africa. We'll motor to the Museum to see the golden treasures from the Tomb of Tut-Ankh-Amen, to wander the dim aisles of long dead civilizations, later to the Moslem University of El Azhar, the Citadel, the Tombs of the Mamelukes, the Mosques that we couldn't leave without seeing and retain our self-respect. But most of us will like the bazaars even better . . gold and silver embroideries, hammered brass, inlaid furniture, red and black glazed pottery from Assiut, silks, Egyptian mats and applique sail cloth. There's the fun of bargaining for all these things, and here our guides will help us to avoid the skin- you-alive places and the fakes that so easily deceive the unwary. Then, one brilliant day, our cars will take us to the Zoological Gardens and out to Mena House on the edge of the desert. Here we'll have our choice of camels, donkeys, or sand carts for the trip to the Pyramids and the Sphinx, that enigmatic lady who had sat in the sand with her riddle for two thousand years when Abraham was born. But even this isn't enough to satisfy us that we've seen Egypt . . so we take a Nile steamer and sail along the most famous river of the ancient world up as far as Bedrechein, watching the cultivation that takes place along the banks in the same primitive fashion that the Pharaoh of the Exodus may have initiated. If the museums have given us a taste for real Egyptology we have an optional excursion in store . . see page 88 . . that takes us by train to Luxor, Thebes and Karnak . . the Valley of the Kings, the Tomb of Tut-Ankh-Amen, temples beyond compare, magnificence that even now, in ruins, gives us a wholesome 20 o © Si 13 © e Si Si | © Si © © O to Si p© Si Si CO © u © © © Si © S3 Si WM' v.

And Bombay is the gateway, city of two million people, with streets that are an endless pageant of the multicolored East. And here we anchor off Apollo Bunder, board the tender and embark on two half-days of sightseeing where swift motoring packs the hours with new experiences, and luncheon at one of the best hotels gives us strength for the individual sightseeing and shopping that clamors for our attention later on. Malabar Hill, the Hanging Gardens, the grim Towers of Silence where the Parsees place their dead . . these and a hundred other things we couldn't bear to miss . . and then we're off by boat to the Island of Elephanta to visit the caves turned into weird dim temples by the Hindoos for their million gods. And now comes the dividing of the pleasant road. Our main cruise party proceeds by special train to Delhi, the new and ancient capital city, once capital of the Afghan and the Mohammedan Empires, now at the head of British India. [Shah Jehan's Palace, the Painted Palace of the Chief Sultana, the Royal Baths, the Jumma Musjid, most beautiful of all the mosques of India, the Kashmere Gate with battered walls that tell of Mutiny days.

Here are the houses of the rich merchant princes, too, built on a scale of magnificence that rivals even the palaces of the native potentates whose wealth is fabulous, and fabulously spent. From Calcutta we shoot straight north over the fertile plains of Bengal to the foothills of the mighty Himalayas. From Siliguri the tiny train, Lilliputian amongst railways, climbs steadily by flank and steep, turning and twisting to its final height of 7000 feet, where lies Darjeeling contemplating the terrific heights of the Snowy Range, Kinchunjunga, eternally crowned, with far distant Mount Everest, towering giant of the Himalayas, whose mighty head shoulders into insignificance the great mountains of the world. Our stay at Darjeeling, which is about twenty-six hours, is full of interest. After luncheon at the hotel we have our first opportunity to ride in a ricksha ... to see the sights. Then "early to bed—early to rise," because our trip to Tiger Hill must start very, very early in the morning if we are to be there in time for a view of the sunrise over Mount Everest. Returning to Calcutta we set our faces south, through a fertile and smiling land, coasting the Bay of Bengal, our immediate objective Madras, then South India, Madura with its towering temples, unlike any we have hitherto seen, a short sea trip across the Strait of Palk and so to the smiling, ever green, happy island of Ceylon, to rejoin at Colombo the main cruise party, which has meantime returned to the ship and proceeded by sea from Bombay, our Wonderland behind us, a paradise before.

Think of the people we left at home to shiver through a wintry January, when all the time the world held this prismatic jewel of an island, this completely satisfying little city with its red roads and its green palms, its astounding flowers and its costumes to match, its jolly, smiling, moving-picture crowds and its "bullock bandies" with their cocoanut leaf hoods on top and their yoke of oxen in front! Our motors snake their way along from landing time till luncheon at the hotel, and then we're off for Mount Lavinia, a seaside resort so exotically lovely that nothing could bring us back to town if we didn't "remember that Ceylon is rich in rubies, sapphires and moonstones, all of which are displayed in the shops . . and what woman on earth wouldn't take her husband in tow at the impact of a thought like that? Next day, we're due for a motor trip to Kandy, the Hill Capital, sitting 2000 feet above the sea on the edge of a lake of its own. We'll see a rubber factory and a tea plantation en route, to say nothing of the shifting panorama of the roads where we toot elephants out of our lordly way. Finally, we'll visit the Peradeniya Gardens where we come face to face with all the homely kitchen spices that somehow we thought grew in neat little tins and canisters, then lunch at the hotel and then go on to the famous Temple that houses . . Buddha's Tooth! An optional Singhalese interlude, three scenic days that can't be beaten anywhere, takes us to Nuwara Eliya, 4000 feet higher even than Kandy . . mountain passes, corkscrew roads that go laddering up to the flagpole of the world and waterfalls that add their diamond spray to the other jewels of the island . . see page 93.

Then we come to Emmahaven, an up-to-date port that took five years to construct; we land and go on board a special train that takes us to Padang and on to Padang-Pandjang where we see such wonders of pointed roofs and intricate decoration as make us doubt whether it's worth while to go on and explore further . . even great China itself can't be half so exotic! We visit the Exhibition Building to see native arts and manufactures in their cases, native dancing and fencing alive and fluid, making one gorgeous picture after another against a background so strange and lovely that we long to pack the whole thing up, take it home and win our fortunes as impresarios for a spectacle the West has never even dreamed of.

We dock at Tandjong Priok, and motors take us around Batavia, clean as a whistle, and Weltevreden, the garden suburb, then out to Buitenzorg, the most beautiful botanical garden to be found anywhere. The balcony of the hotel where we lunch is an eerie from which we look across a valley deep clad in tropical verdure, a river winding through its luxuriance like a silvered, frosted snake, to a conical mountain, volcanic, dynamic, its head lost in fleecy cloud. The next two days, we drive, we shop of course, we buy "wayang" dolls for souvenirs . . then we may choose between three optional excursions . . see pages 94 and 95 . . The first takes us to Bandoeng over excellent roads that climb those flower-flaunting mountains, out of the tropics to the heights where tea and coffee estates swing high in air and good hotels provide a smiling welcome. The second gives us Bandoeng and then goes on to Garoet to see a volcano, a diadem of lakes and a native dance to bamboo music. The third . . and here's your Java straight . . takes us by way of Bandoeng to Djokjakarta of the delightful bazaars and Boroboedoer where we find a temple built eleven centuries ago that could be studied for a month and never bore us.

The Empress of Australia goes alongside the dock . . what an impressive steel and concrete welcome! It thrills Americans, it surprises everybody, but we're all too used to progress to linger over the new city with its efficient office buildings, its great open parkway of the Luneta, its splendid clubs, its wide and pleasant homes that face the sea. We want the ancient city . . Intramuros . . where a Spanish town of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries shows us narrow flagged streets, windows with iron grilles and beautiful old churches. We're almost sorry that they put the Aquarium inside the old bastion . . or the municipal golf course in the moat. But the world moves, and Manila has walked out of the past into a blazing future in the last thirty years. We drive through the Spanish city, then out to Fort Santiago, passing en route not only cars as swift as ours, but lumbering cara- bao; then back we come, through the business and the residential sections to the ship for luncheon. In the afternoon, we motor to Fort McKinley and to Bilibid Prison, said to be the model penitentiary of the world.

The harbor of Hong Kong can challenge comparison with any in the world for size and grandeur, and certainly it's the most interesting in point of varied shipping. Chinese junks with eyes painted on the bow, so they can see to go . . sampans with slatted sails . . grey gunboats . . merchantmen that carry half the flags that dot the seas . . and sleek, aristocratic liners like our own. The Crown Colony of Hong Kong began in 1841 with the island itself; parts of the mainland were added in 1860 and 1898; but the "New Territory" is held on a mere 99-year lease. Victoria, the capital, starts at the waterline and goes upstairs, tier after hillside tier, so that all the ricksha coolies have steel muscles in their legs, and every white resident has a view worth millions. We dock at Kowloon, receive our ferry tickets and jaunt over to Victoria. We have three half-day excursions ahead of us. The first takes us to the top of the Peak, carried, part way, in sedan chairs. The second treats us to a 60-mile motor trip in the New Territory, and the third half-day is devoted to driving 25 miles around the island, with luncheon or tea at the Repulse Bay Hotel. On the first evening, after dinner at the Hong Kong Hotel, we're going by motor to Repulse Bay for a dance, and to view from the hotel terraces one of Hong Kong's most charming scenes. Some of our free time will surely be spent in the shops along Queen's Road, looking for porcelain, silks, jade, lace and blackwood furniture. Those of us who can't bear to miss anything will take the optional trip to Canton . . see page 97 . . the largest city in China, with a population of four million. Here we'll meet four thousand years of history, piled on top of each other so closely that a third of the accumulated humans five on the river in boats, because there's no room for them on shore. Never, never will we forget Canton and its endless canons of narrow tortuous streets, filled with hurrying thousands, its bazaars and shops, its ivories, its blackwood, jade and silk. In all South China there is no city like it and in our dreams we will think surely the world contains no other such. 42 - CANADIAN PACIFIC Keelung, Formosa FEBRUARY 19 W e're apt to think of overseas possessions as the exclusive privilege of European nations . . if they aren't held by Americans. But in Formosa we're going to see how the Japanese manage an island half the size of Ireland and ten times as fractious to begin with. It has a mountain backbone, still largely unexplored, and in the northern fastnesses the headhunters lived and killed ferociously till the Japanese undertook a subjugation program in 1910 that brought most of them to heel. The eastern half of the island, steep and craggy, is still a zone to be entered rather heart-in-mouth, but the western part is flat and fertile, with two rice crops a year grown largely by the Chinese who used to own the island, in a climate where the temperature is rarely less than 96, and when it doesn't rain . . it pours. It won't be rice we'll think of, however, whenever we hear the word Formosa, nor will it be sugar or tea, even "Formosa oolong" is something to make poems about. Formosa stands for camphor, a government monopoly and one of enormous value, since the island with its giant camphor laurels is the world's chief source of supply. The clever Japanese are leaving nothing to chance, for back in 1917 they started planting to replace the trees destroyed, and every year sees added acres coming to maturity. We land at Keelung almost on the northern tip . . the chief port of the island with a deep bay at its feet, mountains behind and frilly bamboos all about . . a hive of industry where most of the workers are Chinese though all of the laws come from Tokyo. Keelung, however, isn't the seat of government for the colony, so we go on board our special train and, in an hour spent with our noses glued to the panes, we reach Taihoku as the Japanese call it, though its Chinese name is Taipeh. The officials five inside the walls, the Europeans outside in Twatutia (pronounced Daitotei), a district that stretches pleasantly along the river, while the Chinese have still another quarter largely to themselves. Jinrickshas wait for us and round the sights we go, some considering the camphor factory to be the most interesting, others finding a gruesome pleasure in the opium factory that provides the drug under government monopoly not only for medical use but for the licensed smokers whose number Japan is doing her best to cut down. The Governor General's garden . . entered by special permit issued only to distinguished visitors like ourselves . . shows what the cleverest horticulturists in the world can do when they have tropical plants to play with. 44 Hong Kong has many beauty spots but none excel Repulse Bay A primitive hana loom worked by native woman of Formosa PHOTOGRAPH BY JANET M.

We visualize an immense foreign population; but it isn't much above 25000, an alert, busy little colony settled in the middle of a densely packed Chinese city of two millions that has grown from a fishing village since the Occidentals arrived in 1843. The Foreign Settlement has its own government, its own policemen . . majestic Sikhs with red turbans in the British Concession, wiry little men with funny hats from Indo-China in the French.

Never such a city in the world since Marco Polo came there in the thirteenth century and saw the Grand Khan's palace with its floors carpeted with black sable and its walls with yellow cat . . never such magnificence since Yung Loh made the Sea Palaces in the Forbidden City before Columbus thought of America . . never such imperial disregard of everything but beauty since the Dowager Empress built her Summer Residence through which our wandering footsteps will take us. Peking is four cities in one . . the formless, tumultuous city outside the main wall, the Chinese city inside, full of shops and temples and streets and hurrying thousands, the Tartar City inside that . . and then the pink wall and the long curved golden roofs of the Forbidden City, most of which is now open to the public. Of course we can't see everything in Peking . . even the moon that has sailed those Chinese skies since time began has missed a lot. But we'll have five long nights and four full days from the time we reach Peking, having left the ship anchored off Chinwangtao, and landed by a smaller steamer and a special train at the goal of our ambitions. There will be two days of sightseeing by motor car and ricksha . . the Summer Palaces, the Forbidden City, the marvellous State Museum, the Picture Gallery, the Winter Palace, the New Palaces, the Temple of Agriculture, the Temple of Confucius, the Hall of Classics, the Drum and Bell Towers, the Temple of Heaven where we, too, feel like praying out under the peaceful sky, and the Lama Temple where we shiver even if there isn't a Devil Dance to watch. Another day, we'll go to the Great Wall by special train and see a part of that stupendous 2500-mile fortification that kept back wave on wave of northern hordes. One day will be free . . and that is all too short a time to look at furs, jades, crystals, embroidered trifles of a hundred shapes, snuff bottles with enamelled tops, carved beads, bronzes, porcelains, mandarin coats and skirts that once swept grandly above imperial shoes. Those of us who have thousands to spend could easily spend them all . . and wish for more. But those whose money must be counted carefully can find such loveliness within their means as makes them hug themselves for joy. 49 &.- The lip-tilted gables, heavy yellow tiled roofs, bronze figures and ancient marble terraces and stairways of the Forbidden City at Peking are now open to visitors ROUND THE WORLD CRUISE Japan | I 0 SEE Japan and to know her in some measure the traveller should have presented to him various aspects of the lives of her people, as depicted in characteristic scenes of daily life. Japan is a land of beauty and culture, but she is also a highly practical land devoted to manufacturing, to finance, to great shipping enterprises and the building of ships. Her imposing palaces and public buildings, her ancient shrines and temples, her great natural beauty and the picturesque life of her people, challenge our interest, but so, too, do her great ports, her vast manufacturing enterprises, her cotton mills and her dockyards. We shall endeavor to study a cross-section of Japan, romance and stern practicability, that we may know her, at least, in part. Beppu, Japan MARCH 4 JVyushu is the island that dabbles its toes in the southwest end of the Inland Sea, and Beppu is a town that is more like Old Japan than anything outside of Lafcadia Hearn. When the Empress of Scotland called there in 1926 on her Round the World Cruise, she was the first big liner that had ever come to port . . and oh what a furore she made. Big ships are scarcely less common today, as Beppu is miles off the beaten track, so when we anchor in the bay and land by tender, we, too, will be a sensation. Such a bright little, clean little town, crouched at the bottom of Aso-San, that great Volcano who obligingly provides heat for the 300 inns and hotels, each with its own mineral bath, where Japanese from all over the islands come to be "boiled" for their health. Outdoors, there are geysers, pools, ponds, streams that bubble and boil, some of them in the most startling colors. And these we'll see on our half-day motor trip. Luncheon will occur in state on shore, quite Japanese and most delightful, and then the afternoon will be free to hunt up a temple where the blossom and jewel-toned robes of the priests will fill us with envy, to buy a fan, a lantern, a box we just must have, an obi like a garden grown on silk. Everywhere the shopkeepers smile and bow, and bow and smile, 'till the process of buying turns into a most delightful social event, always to be remembered when we see our treasures at home. The ship sails at 6 a.m., Wednesday, for Kobe. Taking the Inland Sea by daylight shows us more islands . . and more kinds of islands . . and more amusing, preposterous, thoroughly Japanese islands than ever occurred except on a row of fans. This is one of the world's best moving seascapes, so we mustn't miss a minute of it. 51 Theatre Street in Kyoto, Japan—Moving Picture Shows and Curio Shops ROUND THE WORLD CRUISE Kobe—Kyoto—Nara, Japan MARCH 5 to 8 Jvore is Japan's great seaport, and it has a thriving foreign colony that lives on a wooded ridge behind the city. The streets are a salad of East and West, a study in Japanese progressiveness, but a ricksha at our disposal shows us all we need to see in a place so modern that our great Empress can land us straight at the dock. So the next day we get on a special train for Kyoto, the ancient capital that still considers Tokyo a mere upstart. Set in a green cup in the hills with temples and pagodas flowering out of the trees, Kyoto is the city of festivals endless in number and endlessly gay. The loveliest geishas in Japan are here . . and so are the loveliest fans, dolls, silks, brocades and porcelains. The Mikado's Palace is here, too, and here each new one comes for his crowning. We could spend a month in Kyoto alone, watching the river from scores of little bridges, sipping tea in countless little tea houses. But, after sleeping here, we're due to go on to Nara, the oldest capital of all, with temples and shops, costumes and customs and festivals quite its own. Whatever we miss, we'll be sure to feed the deer in Nara Park. The cakes are there at hand, and, when a horn is blown—behold the mendicants arrive, appeal in their great liquid eyes. Yokohama—Tokyo—Kamakura, Japan MARCH 10 to 13 Ijike Kobe, Yokohama, now rapidly recovering from the great earthquake that levelled it literally with the ground, is a city of big business, the main interest of which lies in its being the gateway to something more typically Japanese. So, after docking and padding along in our rickshas through the streets full of tempting shops, we'll be quite ready to have the special train take us to Tokyo. Here, we'll still realize that we're in New Japan . . with escalators in the department stores, and a smart Imperial Hotel at which we lunch. But, as we motor on, we'll sight the moat, the old grey walls, the twisted pines of the Palace Grounds, and here things haven't changed very much, if at all. The Parks, too, with their drifting crowds of people who look like walking flowers, their little sisters who carry little brothers on their backs, their bright-eyed youngsters who fly along on bicycles with the tails of their kimonos flapping . . all these are quite Japanese enough to suit anybody. 53 CANADIAN PA C I F I C Back in Yokohama again, we start out on another day to Kamakura where the Great Buddha, 493^ feet high, has probably been snapshotted more often than any other personage in stone . . unless the Sphinx herself. Tided waves have washed his Temple away twice, but his sombrely beautiful forest background still remains, and still the tiny human figures gaze at him and say, "What do you suppose he's thinking aboutP ... I believe he frowned at me." An optional excursion that should not be missed . . sej^pageJ^L^. takes us to Nikko in its solemn mountain setting, ringed round with giant cryptomerias. Here are the richest, most fantastic temples in Japan, the tombs of two great Shoguns and the Sacred Red Lacquer Bridge, which anyone may look at, but only kings may cross. Nikko the beautiful, Nikko the peaceful, Nikko the unforgettable. KHKIEBBJ Fujiyama, the sacred mountain of Japan 54 IR I I * . I $ k i\ CANADIAN PACIFIC Honolulu, Hawaii MARCH 21 to 23 Spring is so fugitive in other climates . . a smile across the hills, a dancing step that comes to all of us, a high clear cloud-swept sky, a breath of youth and glamor . . summer is here, too hot for most of us, as winter is too cold. But in Hawaii, spring is everlasting. No wonder Honolulu is a city where a hundred thousand people live among their flowers, near neighbors to their beach and mountains, in a paradise they never want to leave. Our ship is at the dock, our motor cars are here, and off we go for a 9p-mile drive through the city, up to the 1200-foot precipice of the Pali where the view is one that makes us sigh for adjectives we haven't used before . . then round the island where each turn we take gives us a new heart-catching . . glimpses of seas as blue as Peking glass, and flowers and trees, trees and more flowers, pushed back to give us road room as we pass. We lunch at the Royal Hawaiian Hotel, and then . . Waikiki Beach, most famous beach, perhaps, in all the world. Swim we must, but shall we try to ride a surfboard, or be content to watch some lithe young god shoot shoreward like a rocket? That night, we're invited for dinner and a dance back to the same hotel, and here, we hope, they'll give us real Hawaiian music as well as our own jazz. The next day is ours to do with as we wish. The serious souls will visit the Bishop Museum to see the ethnological collections. But the rest of us, be sure, will be back on the beach . . Even to doze in the Hawaiian sun is better than to be awake and learning, anywhere else. Hilo, Hawaii MAUCH 24 Here's where we see the other side of paradise . . that awesome devil whose head is 4000 feet above the sea and whose heart is in nethermost hell. Kilauea is one of the world's premier volcanoes, and when we dock we take a 64-mile drive into the mountains to look into the pit . . Halemaumau, 'The House of Everlasting Fire." If the slumbering devil turns in his sleep and our thirst for sensation isn't slaked at the consequent terrific manifestation of his might, we'll die dissatisfied. We'll also visit the Lava Tubes and the Fern Forest, and then we'll come back to luncheon at the Volcano House, planted right on the devil's very own shoulder . . far enough away to be quite out of danger, but sufficiently near for a thrill. 56 1500 feet is the depth of the crater of Kilauea Volcano at Hilo CANADIAN 4 C I F I C San Francisco, California MARCH 30 and 31 San Francisco, the City of the Golden Gate, is known for a harbor not to be challenged by any but that of Naples or Hong Kong, both of which we've seen and so can pose as judges. But neither of these cities has anything like Golden Gate Park, 1000 acres of beauty, or the Presidio with its 1500 acres and its stretch of Riviera scenery- Nor has any other city quite the eternal youth, the high-keyed everlasting breezy gayety. The ship goes alongside the pier and we're treated to 30 miles of motoring the first morning. There's nothing we don't see, from the Mission Dolores to the barking seals below the broad verandahs of the Cliff House. Luncheon is served at the Palace Hotel, and both the afternoon and the second day are free to do with as we like. Almost anything we forgot to get in China can be found in Chinatown, and here, too, we'll see the apotheosis of the Chinese flapper . . fully Westernized. j ** a s « a a M«sa« I easts * iH Hit ii a B s If JflHiSJKW J San Francisco's skyline is becoming a challenge 58 ROUND THE WORLD CRUISE Balboa, Panama APRIL 9 \Jud Panama, Panama City and Balboa . . nothing more dramatic in the way of contrast can be found anywhere. The first was sacked by Morgan in the seventeenth century, with nothing left but legend- haunted ruins. The second is a Spanish town of twisted streets and balconied old houses. The third is quite American . . wide, palm- lined thoroughfares and comfortable homes in brilliant gardens. Our ship goes alongside the pier, our motor cars carry us smoothly from the present straight through to pirate days and back again. Then, in the evening, we're invited to dinner and a dance at the Tivoli Hotel . . such music, such wide tropic skies above, when we steal out to breathe the perfume of the night. We're on the last lap of our world adventure, but still we feel a million miles from home. The ship leaves Balboa at 6 a.m., Thursday, for a daylight trip through the Canal. Even if you were up to see the sunrise, don't fall asleep and miss a minute of the most dramatic fifty miles scheduled for the whole cruise . . the transit of the Panama Canal. Panama Canal APRIL 10 IlORTH and South America are united . . but only by their mutual mountain backbone that starts in Alaska and finishes at the Straits of Magellan. At the Isthmus of Panama, it dips to its lowest point . . 305 feet above sea level . . and, by following the course of the Rio Grande River on the Pacific slope and the Chagres on the Atlantic side, the canal itself is 42 miles long—50 from deep water to deep water—with the Gaillard (Culebra) Cut in the middle. Taken as a whole, it represents an investment of over 385 millions to the American Government, and it stands as one of the greatest engineering achievements of this or any age. The Canal was opened to commerce on August 15, 1914. And on April 10,1930, we ourselves will see its wonders . . wonders that changed the whole complexion of the nautical world by eliminating the need for the old picturesque, dangerous, storm-tossed passage round Cape Horn. The ship sails from Balboa to Miraflores and is elevated in the first lock to Miraflores Lake, 54 feet above sea level, after which we proceed to Pedro Miguel. The famous Cut is now ahead, and, after passing Empire, Las Cascades and Gamboa, we reach Gatun Lake and enter the Gatun Locks for the descent to Limon Bay, finally docking at 59 (3 09 o 09 o to 09 3 09 V. K) ROUND THE WORLD CRUISE Cristobal, adjoining the city of Colon . . And have we travelled east, as one would expect? No . . we've come northwest, almost at right angles to the strip of land, and the Atlantic end of our trip is about 27 miles west of the Pacific end at which we started . . If this isn't clear, look at the map. If it still remains more or less opaque . . go out and shop, for the afternoon is free, Panama bargains are famous, and the Washington Irving Hotel is a good place for tea and mutual congratulations afterward. Havana, Cuba APRIL 13 and 14 Our last port of call . . and quite the gayest . . for Havana is what Paris used to be before the Americans took it over. Morro Castle welcomes us on the skyline . . the Malecon is full of cars racing along the sea . . and if we have any shopping money left, here's where we'll buy French perfumes for nothing at all and Cuban linens, convent- stitched. Then . . shall we go to the races and risk our last dollar on the pari-mutuels? Or shall we buy a lottery ticket with it? Or take it to the Casino de la Play a? Shall we watch the Cubans play "jai alai" . . the Spanish baseball . . against a team from Spain? There's polo, too . . and golf . . and always there's El Tropical, the brewery where they give the visitor all the beer he wants for nothing, and then weep because his capacity comes to an end so soon. At night, we may go to the theatre to see some one of the imported galaxy of French actresses who always include Havana in their itineraries as a matter of course. Afterward, there's an endless procession of cabarets and roof gardens from which to choose, each lovelier or madder, more smartly cosmo- t. .I .ii• l r< u ~ The President's palace and the new Plaza are pohtan or more thrilhngly Cuban HgM in m heart of Hamna 61 —1 CANADIAN PACIFIC than the one before. Here's where we'll dance the old year out and the new year in . . not a meaningless calendar year that often leaves us just where we started, but the year when we took our cruise, beginning as mere babes in the wood of the world and finishing as people who have no insularities left! New York and Home At 10 a.m. on April 17, we're back where we started in New York . . 29539 nautical miles behind us, and 137 rainbow days . . Do we feel like the same people? Not at all. We're centuries older in experience, years younger in energy. We have the international viewpoint, gained not from reading other men's opinions, but from forming our own on the spot. We can hardly wait to get home to unpack our trunks and begin arranging the loot we've carried off. And as for the snapshots we've taken and the memories carved inside our eyelids . . we'll have them forever and ever, perpetual insurance against boredom as long as we five. There will be a staff of railway ticket agents and baggagemen meet the ship on arrival and render members every assistance in arranging for railway tickets, sleeping car reservations and baggage checking. Seasons Sailing eastward in early December has many advantages in regard to seasons, and it must be remembered that the enjoyment of a cruise largely depends upon visiting the various countries at the right season. The itinerary shows that you depart sufficiently early to escape the first of winter; the Mediterranean ports are visited when the gay Riviera season is opening; Palestine while it is cool; Egypt when it is gayest; India in the cool season, January being the ideal month for that fascinating country; Ceylon, Sumatra, Java, Straits Settlements, Siam, Philippine Islands, China, Formosa and Japan when sightseeing may be done with a maximum of comfort. Sailing December 2, you have: Thanksgiving at Home Christmas Eve and Christmas Day in the Holy Land New Year's Eve in Cairo Home for Easter 62 to iS to ps; ■Hi o o V. p«S to p« 09 I o 09 OS OJ to to O S 05 to pO •?* CO s o 03 >-. 09 •«» 8 to v. to Kl 03 03 to is u to to ps; —I CANADIAN PACIFIC The Cruise Ship Herself ijhe's the "Empress of Australia" . . the crack ship of a fleet that sails both the Atlantic and the Pacific under the house-flag of the Canadian Pacific . . the World's Greatest Travel System . . speedy, safe, luxuriously appointed, everything that a ship can be. But for cruise purposes she has dropped the efficient impersonality of a great liner to transform herself into a floating country house where everything has been thought ofjto keep a house party gay forever, even if there were no ports of call. The wide decks, open to the sun, are the ideal setting for sports, and here the tournaments are held. The Pompeiian swimming pool inside is reinforced by another, out of doors, for tropic seas. The gymnasium is always on hand for those who don't consider deck-trotting or deck tennis sufficiently strenuous. Dancing begins at the tea hour, goes on every evening (except Sunday) and transfers itself from the ballroom to the deck as the ship drives southward. But the jazz orchestra isn't the only one on board. There is a second group of more serious-minded musicians who provide classical entertainment for those who'd rather listen than dance. As for the lectures . . never has so much information been wrapped up in so interesting a form. The lecturer isn't merely an encyclopedist; he's the sort of person who can make fundamental facts amusing by adding all those little intimate details that only a keen and widely-travelled observer has at his command. The concerts, too, are a more popular feature than is usually the case, for here professional talent is reinforced by drawing on the passenger list for clever amateurs who have confided in the all-seeing Directress of Entertainment, who keeps things moving and creates that friendly, informal atmosphere without which the house party would inevitably dissolve itself into cliques and fail of its object. Hobbies have their place, however . . hence the various clubs that spring into being after the first few days at sea. The Golf Club, the Camera Club, the Travel Club, the Bridge Club, the Rotary Club . . perhaps a Dramatic Club, too, or a Pen and Pencil Club if there are writers and artists on board . . all these are organized and flourish gaily. Those who aren't joiners by nature can always find books in the library . . the latest novels as well as standard works of travel dealing with the countries to be visited. But entertainment alone wouldn't constitute this floating country house the self-sufficient little world it must be. Serious needs are also provided for. There are doctors and nurses of the best . . manicurists, barbers and hairdressers. The stewards and stewardesses have been trained for years at sea before their promotion to the Empress of Australia comes as a reward of competent service. The chef and his staff are not only capable of providing the menus expected in the best trans- Atlantic ships; they also know how to concoct those special dishes that only the world-traveller may taste, because their ingredients are picked up fresh at strange ports. "Eating around the globe" is something the gourmet talks about for years, when his trip has been made on the Empress. A cruise like this doesn't "happen." It comes as a result of long experience in cruise planning. Every year, refinements are added to the general scheme. Enthusiastic as your friends were over the trip they took last winter, your own enthusiasm will be even greater. For this cruise will be the best of all! 64 09 to to V.

She is internationally known for her sumptuous furnishings and the spaciousness of her staterooms. Her accommodations are club-like, which means luxurious living. Her fuel is oil, which means cool cleanliness in the tropics. The following details are of interest: 21850 Tons Gross Register 32800 Tons Displacement Length 615 Feet; Breadth 75 Feet Oil Fuel Turbine Engines Speed 19 Knots 7 Decks for Passengers 2 Elevators Gymnasium Pompeii an Swimming Pool Swimming Pool on Deck Staterooms The passenger accommodation is distributed over seven decks, but owing to the limited membership, only six decks will be used on the cruise and five of these are served by two elevators. The staterooms are handsomely furnished and the majority have regular beds. Not more than two persons will be placed in a room unless by request to accommodate a family or friends. There are plenty of single rooms for those who prefer to be alone. Double rooms with private bath and toilet are provided in abundance, and there are suites consisting of bedroom, sitting room, sun room, baggage room, private bath and toilet. Plenty of bathrooms are available for members occupying the regular staterooms not having a private bath. More than 80% of the stateroom accommodation is outside and the majority of the rooms have hot and cold running fresh water. All rooms have electric fans, and the ship is equipped with the most modern apparatus for forced ventilation. The air in the public rooms and staterooms is changed automatically every few minutes without creating a draught. 66 00 ©4 i ©i to • o o ft* to 09 09 to v. e. e to o to ►si I o to to 3 03 to s> ■*» >^ to 8 c 09 05 05 to *«. to CANADIAN PACIFIC The Lounge—Ball Room JL he Lounge on the Promenade Deck is decorated in the Empire style. The furniture is satinwood, with carved and gilded enrichments, upholstered in silk, and the draperies are in complete harmony. The appointments include a magnificent concert grand piano, beautifully enriched with bronze. This room has a splendid dancing floor and a special feature is the absence of pillars, the roof being on the cantilever principle, with large decorated glazed dome. Four large gilt torchieres, together with the ceiling lights, provide brilliant illumination. Drawing Room 1 he Drawing Room, which adjoins the Lounge, is decorated in the Louis XVI style and furnished in white enamel with gilt enrichments. The furnishings include china cabinets, bookcases and writing tables in addition to easy chairs and settees. The Drawing Room is an ideal spot for a quiet game of bridge 68 ROUND THE WORLD CRUISE Writing Room 1 he Writing Room is off the main Entrance Hall on the Promenade Deck, near the elevators. It is treated in the Louis XVI style with tinted walls and white enamelled ceiling, and the furniture is mahogany. Smoking Room X he Smoking Room, also on the Promenade Deck, is in the Louis XIV style with oak-panelled walls and white ceiling. Tapestry and leather- covered chairs and settees, card tables and writing tables comprise the furnishings of this room. Dining Saloon J. he Dining Saloon is on Deck B and accommodates 368 persons at one sitting, the tables being arranged for small parties of two to six persons. It is decorated in French Regency style, the walls and ceiling being white enamelled with gilt enrichments, and the furniture is mahogany. It has a large dome extending up through Deck A, and altogether is one of the most luxurious rooms in any ship. Immediately adjoining are two private dining rooms, each accommodating 20 persons.

The forward end of the Promenade Deck is enclosed in portable glass screens, thus ensuring comfort on deck in all weather. On an extensive cruise of this kind, sufficient promenade space is an essential feature, as a great many people prefer to spend the major portion of their time on deck. Verandah Cafe 1_Jn the aft end of the Promenade Deck is the Verandah Cafe. This delightful rendezvous, with its beamed ceiling and wicker furniture, will be a great favorite in the tropics. Gymnasium 1 he Gymnasium is on the port side of the Promenade Deck aft and is furnished with all the latest appliances for exercise, including rowing machines, bicycle machines, horse machines, camel machines, pulley weight machines, punching bag and Swedish wall bars. Regular classes are held daily for both ladies and gentlemen, and private lessons may be arranged with the Physical Instructor free of charge. Swimming Pool and Electric Bath 1 he PoMPEHAN Swimming Pool is on Deck D and there are individual showers and dressing rooms. In the mild climate there will also be a Swimming Pool on deck. The Electric Bath is on Deck B. Kitchens and Pantries J. he Kitchens and Pantries are situated on Deck C and will compare with the best arrangements afloat or ashore. The most modern electrical and other appliances enable the staff to supply a perfect cuisine. The Canadian Pacific is famous throughout the world for the meals furnished on its steamships, and that high standard will not only be maintained on the cruise but will be excelled if possible. 71 CANADIAN PACIFIC FARES l1 rom New York and return to New York, fares are from $2000, according to location of stateroom, for 137 days.

There will be no crowding or confusion, and the facilities at the various ports, which in some instances are limited, will not be overtaxed. The Empress of Australia has a capacity of 1177 passengers, but there will be only about one-third of that number on the cruise. Management 1 he Empress of Australia is owned and operated by the Canadian Pacific; the shore excursions are arranged and executed by the Canadian Pacific—one management ship and shore—one standard of service—the best. Canadian Pacific representatives, experienced in world cruising, will accompany the cruise to attend to the comfort and entertainment of members aboard and ashore. Entertainment 1 he hours aboard ship will pass all too quickly, as there will be so many interesting things to do—deck tennis, quoits, shuffleboard, sports tournaments, bridge, concerts, birthday parties, fancy dress and masquerade balls, dancing, gymnasium, swimming pool, lectures, fraternal meetings, camera club, travel club, and moving pictures. The library will contain a varied assortment of books on travel, adventure and foreign countries. In addition a representative collection of all current literature will be placed on board, thus ensuring the latest publications being available. Two high class orchestras will be carried for classical music and dancing. The Directress of Entertainment and the Staff Captain will assist in arranging the various functions. Lectures will be delivered prior to arrival at many ports, by an interesting globe trotter, who is thoroughly familiar with the history and customs of each country visited. Members will be particularly interested in his tips on shopping. Religious Services JJrviNE Service will be held on Sundays when the ship is not in port. An altar set is also provided for the celebration of Holy Mass _ There is usually a Roman Catholic priest among the passengers. 76 .And speaking of club facilities, the Empress of Australia's Smoking Room leaves nothing to be desired CANADIAN PACIFIC Facilities 1 he Empress of Australia has every facility of the modern hotel: stenographer, barber, ladies' hairdresser, manicurist, masseur, masseuse, surgeon, professional nurses, laundry, valet service, photographer, novelty shop, daily newspapers, etc. The ship is equipped with long range radio capable of maintaining communication with land at all times. The Shop J. he Empress of Australia has a modern and well equipped shop at which may be purchased a variety of articles, such as books, candy, toilet articles, films, souvenirs, post cards, fancy goods and dolls. Photography As a cruise offers exceptional opportunities for photography, a staff of experts is carried to develop and print films for members. Cruise members should not take a large supply of photographic films with them, as hermetically sealed films are required in the tropics and may be purchased at The Shop aboard ship at city prices. Laundry A he Empress of Australia is equipped with a modern laundry, and members' work will be given preferred attention. Clothing for the Cruise Warm and medium weight clothing will be found most comfortable for about eleven weeks of the cruise. Light weight clothing is desirable for the remainder of the time. Ladies should take plenty of wash dresses and gentlemen white wash, Palm Beach or tropical worsted suits. Sport clothes and fancy dress masquerade costumes will be useful. Shoes, rubbers, sweaters and raincoats should be taken from home, also an adequate supply of clothing, but the latter may be replenished at most of the ports. A sun helmet is a convenience, but this can be purchased en route. Gentlemen will find a dinner jacket will meet all ordinary requirements, as full dress is essential for only official functions. Deck Chairs and Rugs JJeck Chairs and Rugs may be rented for the entire cruise, New York to New York, at $5 each. Members are recommended, to bring a sofa pillow with them for their deck chair. 78 60 55, 09 S to 55, 09 Si p«*» S5, 09 u to 09 © 09 5» © 5ft CANADIAN PACIFIC Travellers Cheques I^ruise members will find Canadian Pacific Express Travellers Cheques convenient on the cruise. They are issued in denominations of $10, $20, $50, $100 and $200, and may be obtained from any Canadian Pacific office at the regular rates. Baggage and Baggage Insurance Although there is practically no limit to the amount of personal baggage which may be Garried on the steamship, it is inadvisable for members of the cruise to burden themselves with too many trunks and bags. Large trunks and other baggage not regularly needed, or which cannot be conveniently accommodated in the stateroom, will be placed in the large, well appointed baggage room which will be accessible throughout the cruise. Trunks for staterooms should not exceed fourteen inches in height. On inland excursions baggage will be limited to suit cases, hand bags and other portable baggage. Every care is taken in connection with baggage, but, on board, the liability of the Canadian Pacific is limited, and they assume no responsibility ashore. Members are recommended to protect themselves by insuring their baggage against loss, damage or pilferage. Passports and Vises Ml assports are necessary. Married couples may travel on one passport. Most countries still require passports to be vised by their consulates or representatives. Full information regarding passports and vises will be furnished to each member in due time and every assistance rendered by Canadian Pacific representatives in completing necessary details. Post Office—Mail—Cables To facilitate delivery of mail matter at the various ports of call, a Post Office has been installed in the ship, in charge of a staff of experienced postal clerks. Members of the cruise will be furnished, when tickets are issued, with full instructions regarding the addressing of mail and cables to reach them en route. Messages to Relatives and Friends at Home J. he offices of the Canadian Pacific will receive cable advice of the arrival of the Empress of Australia at each port, and will notify relatives and friends of passengers by mail if list of names and addresses is left with them. 80 09 © © to to P© pc: © © to "© 09 o to ©> © to pSS © to s, So 09 •«» O © © ft5 ""*■ CANADIAN PACIFIC Distinctive Features of Itinerary I he Canadian Pacific cruise has many distinctive features, among which the principal are: Call at Algiers and Athens Call at Haifa for included excursion to Jerusalem, Bethlehem, etc. Christmas Eve and Christmas Day in the Holy Land New Year's Eve in Cairo All members have steamer trip on Nile India in the cool season All members visit Delhi, Agra, Taj Mahal and Fatehpur Sikri All members visit Ceylon Call at Padang, Sumatra Call at Bangkok, Siam Call at Keelung, Formosa All members visit Peking Call at Beppu, Japan Through the Panama Canal Return to New York A complete circuit of the globe by water on one ship And the Canadian Pacific Round the World Cruise has the added advantage of the ship and the cruise being owned and operated by the one concern, thus affording a high standard of service throughout under one management.

Optional Excursions hile the program of included excursions is complete and comprehensive, it is felt that members of the cruise should be offered facilities, where time permits, to visit, at their own expense, certain places which it is impossible to include in the regular excursions. Where the included excursions overlap the optionals, due allowance has been made in the fare for the latter. Members are urged to avail themselves of these excursions, rather than attempt to make their own arrangements, as they have been carefully organized with a view of seeing all that is worth seeing. Furthermore, in the case of motor trips, it should be borne in mind that each group of cars is accompanied by a Canadian Pacific representative and in some cases by police officers, cars are not filled to capacity, additional cars are employed for the carrying of baggage, and spare cars are supplied to avoid delays in event of break-down. Meals and hotel accommodation, where required, are also included. Local drivers in many places offer similar trips at reduced rates but members are warned to beware of such "bargains" as they afford none of the protection or service outlined above and the cars are usually crowded. Children will be charged full fare for optional excursions.

Dinner on train. Monday, December 30 Arrive Luxor 7 a.m. Breakfast on train. An early start will be made, as the Thebes excursion is of a comprehensive character. Members are transferred across the Nile River in small boats to the west bank. Here donkeys and carriages will be provided for the trip to the Valley of the Kings with its numerous and wondrous temples and tombs, including that of King Tut-Ankh-Amen, the revelation of whose astonishing riches caused a sensation throughout the entire civilized world. Most of these antiques are now on view in the Cairo Museum. Considerable exploration work is still being done in King Tut's Tomb and the Egyptian authorities reserve the right to close it to the public when necessary. Features of interest on the drive are the two gigantic Colossi, the most celebrated of which is the Vocal Memnon, so called from a tradition that it emitted sounds when the rays of the morning sun fell upon it. The Temple of King Amenhotep nearby has almost entirely disappeared. A visit is made to the Temple of Koorneh, dedicated to Seti I, full of interesting sculptures and inscriptions. Proceeding next to the Valley of Biban-el-Molook, the Tombs of the Kings of the 19th and 20th dynasties, now lit by electricity, will be inspected. The party will pass the hill of Abd-el-Koorneh, and under the cliffs of the Libyan Mountain, to visit the Temple Dayr-el-Bahree, with its sculptures of floating obelisks from Assuan, which is different in its plan from any other in Egypt, the Rameseum or Memnonium, in elegance and architectural beauty excelling almost all other Egyptian monuments. The gigantic statue of Rameses II, in the court-yard, is the largest in Egypt, weighing over 1000 tons. Members are then directed to Dayr-el-Medeeneh and from there to the fine tomb of Queen Nefertari, favorite wife of Rameses III. Medinet-Abou is next visited. This is one of the four great temples referred to by ancient writers. Luncheon will be served at the Rest House in Thebes and the party will then return to the east bank of the Nile. The afternoon will be devoted to visiting the Temple of Luxor and the magnificent Temple of Karnak. The route lies across the plain and along the Grand Avenue of Sphinxes. These are coeval with the Temple, and the way was once bordered with them on either side for the entire distance from the Temple of Luxor. The unfinished Propylon, or outer wall, still more than 100 feet in height, and the various courts having been inspected, the great hall of the Temple is visited. The hall measures 170 feet by 329 feet, and the roof is supported by 134 massive columns, 60 feet in height. Leave Luxor 7 p.m. in sleeping cars. Dinner on train.

Another calls Java "the peerless gem in that magnificent empire of Insulinde which winds about the equator like a garland of emerald." Yet another "an earthly Paradise, a region of never failing delight to the lover of natural beauty and the home of all splendors and varieties of tropical vegetation." With all regard for the warm enthusiasm which sometimes carries away the pen of the traveller moving, perhaps, amongst surroundings conceived in more generous mood than that to which he is accustomed, it cannot be denied that Java, and particularly western Java, presents tropic landscapes so perpetually green, mountains so filled with mystic beauty, native scenes so replete with interest, that the traveller sighs with regret when the hour comes to separate himself from so benign, contented and happy a land. The flora of Java is typically tropical in character in the lowlands, sub-tropic in the mountains. The Preanger Regency is specially noted for the beauty of its landscapes and the gorgeous richness of its tropical scenery. Some of its roads seem traced through a veritable fairyland. 95 CANADIAN PACIFIC Java is an extraordinarily fertile country and may be likened to an immense garden. Here may be found growing all the familiar friends we are accustomed to meeting in a manufactured state— sugar, coffee, tea, rubber, rice, tobacco, sago, cocoanuts, peanuts, cinchona (quinine) and a hundred others. The roads of Java are one long scene of wonder to the traveller, from the lush tropic scenery of the lowland country to the more rugged mountain slopes, where perch precariously the tea and coffee estates that give so richly to this smiling land of plenty. Scene follows varied scene, every moment alive with interest and pleasure. Java is a smiling, contented island and traversing the country roads seems to bring one into the heart of the countryside and its people, to share its content and its flashing smile. This is yet a land of primitive art that is real art, of weird Oriental music, of many colored batik. The mountain towns are models of Dutch cleanliness and thoroughness, the hotels real havens of welcome, good cheer and good food. Java is a many-sided country, from the simple rusticity of the native peoples to the more sophisticated side of the white man's civilization. All are here to hold the visitor in never failing interest. Java is traversed by a network of good macadam roads, beautifully shaded. Good cars are obtainable and good hotels abound. Moving about the country by motor car is the ideal means of progression, as in this way otherwise inaccessible points of beauty and interest become available, and the traveller is able to enter into, and appreciate to the full, contacts with the native life of the country-side. It is not generally known to the great world outside that Java holds some of the most ancient relics of Buddhist and Hindu temples, relics of a thousand years ago, but still preserved in a splendid state of repair. Notable amongst such relics of the past is the Boroboedoer, a few miles from Djokjakarta. This amazing temple, built some eleven centuries ago, presents to one versed in the Buddhist religion a wonderful series of bas-reliefs, stone panel after stone panel, rising terrace above terrace, tracing the entire fife of Buddha from the hour of miraculous birth. The traveller comes to Java to confirm, perhaps, his previous conceptions of the country, or to seek paths hitherto untrodden; the artist to study its beauty; the scientist deeper knowledge of this mobile earth. All alike may find their goal, replete with new impressions, ideals or knowledge, but sharing alike, a common regret at leaving so fair a place, a newer Garden of Eden. 96 ROUND THE WORLD CRUISE Optional No. 14 and 14a Limited to 40 Persons Each Day Canton See map on page 47 February 14 and 15 Leave Empress of Australia 9 p.m., transfer by ferry to Hong Kong, thence ricksha to pier for Canton steamer.
