Smoothing the Path of Princes Princes of the Blood Royal visit their Dominions Overseas they go through a great number of -- receptions and functions of their trip anything but a vacation time. When, further, they are accompanied by the Prime Minister of the Old Country, although the.latter may relieve them somewhat in the matter'of ^leeches, the tour becomes all the more arduous by reason of its greater significance. Ac-t-rdingfy, there is all the more cause to make their few private hours as comfortable as possible and this has been amply looked after in tne Canadian Pacific Royal Train that is conveying the distinguished guests across the Dominion. Grouped on the observation end of the private*car Mount Stephen that has been assigned to the use of the Royal guests are the personnel of the attendants and others whose duty it will be to make the princes and the premier forget their hard work in the lap of luxury. They are all picked men who have-been out at one time or another with celebrities travelling C.P.R. across Cana' da. The chefs are men of European reputation who are acknowledged experts in their line. They have accompanied the Prince of Wales on his previous visits to Canada and so are known to His Royal Highness. Standing on the car from left to right they are: G. Hicks, W. Zoppi, H.fT. Jolley, T. E. Evans, and J. Bassett. Lower, left to right: j. B. Ford, J. Tootles, S. Ferraris, E. McKea-veney, L.

Some merchants neglect advertising. The window is seen by those who pass the store and by others. The newspaper carries the show window, as it were, into the homes of the town and district and gives the people an idea of the goods carried, and the prioe.s at which they cam be secured.
