Here flowers bloom in winter, and the grass and trees are always green. South-westerly breezes prevail through- out the year, reaching the land warmed by their passage across the vast breadth of the Pacific, whose waters on this coast have a temperature of 52 degrees. In Victoria, 49 degrees has been the mean annual temperature for the last thirty years, while Vancouver is a little { colder, but extremes in weather are never experienced. Golf and other outdoor sports may be engaged in all winter, while both cities have magni ficent natural settings, and hundreds of miles of the finest roads on the continent invite motoring. You have the grandeur of mountain scenery, glorious seascapes, luxurious evergreen forests and ip- vigorating sea air, with all the ad- vantages to be found in a modern metropolis, for Victoria and Vancouver are two of the finest cities in the Dominion. The mountains en route through the Canadian Rockies are magnificent in their sombre winter dress--a fairyland of surpassing beauty. The Canadian National Railway passes through the mountains at the lowest altitude and easiest gradients of any transcontinental railway in America.
