Fri. Cost of Sleeper—Upper, $4.65; Lower, $5.80. Management pays for your baggage hauling. Very deep stage. Do not hang too deep or it will necessitate con- siderable work to change your set after the first show. On arrival in Calgary leave your baggage checks, unless you have special baggage car, with the C. P. R. baggageman in the baggage room at the station in an envelope with your name and theatre marked on the outside where the Johnston Cartage Co. pick them up. On the journey to Vancouver one can economize by not taking a sleeper until the train reaches Ravelstoke at 5:10 P. M., but a sleeper all the way through is very acceptable as this is without doubt the most wonderful scenic journey in North America.
