mon who dares devour their light-giving planet.

Since sailing eastward from New York on December 3rd the giant liner has previously called at Madeira, Gibraltar, Algiers, Monaco, Naples, Haifa, Port Said, Suez, Bibay, Colombo, Padang, Batavia, Singapore, and Manila. Unusual features of the cruis were Christmas day in the Holy Land New Year's eve in Calro, and arrival-in India carly in January, the best month for visiting, the tropics. Following stopovers in China and Japan, the Empress of Scotland will cross the Pacific to Hawaii and California, returning. to New York through the Paname canal on April 10th.

A third of the cruise personnel are British, and the ship will continue across the Atlantic from New York to Southampton. They will have crossed the Atlantle three times ere they return home. f Unique in the cruising busi- ness, the Canadian Pacific is the only steamship company operat. ing its own cruises... These were initiated in 1924. when the Em- press' of Canada was sent around the world introducing the one- management tour, both afloat and ashore. Last year the Empress of France made the same voyage)

The cruise marks what is pro-1 bably the retiring trip of "Pa" Philp, the veteran ronking chief engineer of the Canadian Pacific Steamships fleet. His real name is A. E. Philp, O.R.E., and, he was i decorated 'for his services during the war in transporting 116,000 troops, whilst covering 174,000 miles of the Seven Seas, including Gallipoli, He has run 'ships by wind, coal and oil and he admits that an oilburner like the Em. press of Scotland looks good, to him. "No dust, no smoke, ao dirt and no trouble" is what he Bays and one' might well take the

word of a veteran like him.
