ing Bystern, and issues travellera notes. Being able to grant unique facilities it is scarcely surprising that the company is experiencing greater demands upon Ita steamer routes, and in order to cope with the expanding North Atlantic traffic has transferred the "Empress of Australia" from the Pacific service. This ship is to be the finest to ply between Canada and the Mother Country, and by the courtesy of Sir George McLaren Brown, the Euro- pean general manager of the com- pany, a representative of the "Fin- ancial News" was afforded an op- portunity of travelling by her from Greenock to Southampton.

com.

The Canadian Pacific Railway caters for all classes, and is now making special efforts to cultivate The "Empresa of tourist traffic. Australia" was originally designed as a first-class passenger vessel, but her machinery was found to be in- effective.

The company therefore took the bold course some months ago of scrapping it, and entrusted her to the Fairfield Shipbuilding Co., whose engineers have pletely reconditioned her. At a heavy cost, it is true; but what is the result? The "Empress of Aus- tralia" is now the most modern boat of her class, and the most economically steam-driven on the ocean. Her fuel consumption has Leen reduced from 205 tons to 100 tons of oil a day. Assume a say- ing of £3 a ton, and the cost of re- conditioning wil before long bo fully met. Where the original en- gines developed only 16% knots, the new machinery develops over

nursery,

The decoration of the dining saloon, which occupies the breadth of the vessel, the lounges, and the smoking-room, is the remarkable achievement in colour effect, and nothing appertaining to comfort has been overlooked. In fact, the vessel as a kind of may be regarded "Rolis-Royce" of the Atlantic.

At the dinner. Sir George Mc- Laren Brown, in welcoming the guests, stated that the object of the company was to place in the At- lantic service an exceptionally fine vessel-an indication of the im portance attached by the company to this service. He paid a high tribute to the originators and others of the C. P. R. system, and to those now in command, and said that the company had at the present time nine ocean-going liners under con- struction in the shipyards of Great Britain.

It la Interesting to note that on second voyage to Canada her the "Empress of Australia" will have as passengers the Prince of Wales and the Prime Miniator, and later in the year she will be engaged in a world tourist cruis.. Fortunate those who will be able to secure berths.
