A special train from Chicago to the National Conference of Charities and
Correction to be held at Seattle July 5–12 is being planned by a group
of charity organization society workers. Others who wish to go, however,
will be welcome to join the party. If the number reaches one hundred, a
special train will be provided, leaving Chicago Sunday evening, June 29.
All day Wednesday will be spent at Banff and Laggan. The train will
remain on the tracks at Laggan, departing early Thursday morning to give
an all-day trip through the Canadian Rockies. The party will arrive in
Vancouver on Friday and proceed to Seattle by boat. The day’s sail down
Puget Sound will be broken by a stop of three hours at Victoria. Return
is possible by any route preferred.
The cost of the round trip from Chicago will be $63, not including
sleeper.
The committee arranging for this trip is Francis H. McLean, Eugene T.
Lies, Fred S. Hall and James Minnick. Those planning to travel with this
party should buy round trip tickets at their homes and arrange for
sleeper reservations through James Minnick, Chicago Tuberculosis
Institute, 10 South La Salle St., Chicago.
