Trend Of Travel To Pacific Coast Since Residents of Central And Eastern Canada Can't Go South, They Go West Many hundreds of residents of Eastern and Central Can. ada who 'annually head south when the cold weather sets in, will have to seck a winter resort at home because of the restric- tions on travel to the United Sta- tes necessitated by war conditions, Tn view of these circumstances, reports received by the Canadian National Railways indicate that the trend of travel this winter is now westward to the Pacific slope of British Columbia via the Jasper National Park route: This Pacific Coast region has been rightfully named the "Ever- green Playground" and visitors to Vancouver and Victoria soon learn of the mellowing influence of warm - ocean currents which serve to maintain pleasant tem- peratures throughout the Winter months. For the energetic, golf is available on links playable the year round, while for anglers, steelhead trout and tyeo salmon abound in the inland and coastal waters of British Columbia . The Continental Limited train of the Canadian National Rail- ways assures air-conditioned com. fort via 'the Jasper Park Way", providing daily services from the East, through the Rockies to Van- couver, at low winter fares. * March Is Next 'Season For Colds There Are Two Peak-Periods For Common Cold Epidemics --March and September Ev- ery Year March is the next common- cold period, says.a study from Cornell Medical Centre-New York - Hospital. Each year there are two peak periods, the other in September. As a result, most people have two colds a year, a fall cold and a spring cold. Drafts, wet feet and sudden changes in temperature do not necessarily cause colds. Most -- perhaps all of them -- are caught from other people, And they are most easily given to others before the first suffer- er even knows he has a cold. The reason is that the cause of colds, a tiny, unseen organism known as filterable virus, disap- pears from the throat within three or four days, Dog' s Legacy $600 has been left by a 76- BP wad, Englishwoman to secure the future of a three-years od Cairn, "N\ Drive out ACHES 3 diet which 'in ih hdd {What Science!
