Bandmaster Wilson, accompanied
the coast visitors, and upon the
‘gag arrival of the train, headed a
Be Procession through town. Their

district, cars were available, and

good many.
In town a program of sports

{Umer old conditions there was al-
ways a certain amount of risk
in shipping fruit. The entry of dust
or cinders, or the high temperature
‘ of the car, was frequently the cause
of fruit becoming spoiled during
transit. But under present condi-
tions, fruit not only retains its color-
ing, freshness and firmness when it
is shipped from ona point to en-
other, but it is actually improved.

‘Canadian Pacifie Railway and the
