The chief difference between An

"FUh in abundance, big game, long
days and glorius twilights await the
motor tourist in Canada this sum
mer." says Ir, P. K. !nolitt!e. presi
dent of the Canidian Automobile as
sociation, commenting on conditions
in Canada during the summer season.
"H'ghwny conditions in Canada for
the must part are attractive. No spe
cial equipment is necessary to insure
safe travel although it is desirable
to carry non.skid chains. They will be
neeile in wet wet weather on the
gravel roads of Nova Scotia. New
Brunswick and i'rince Kdward Island
and on the hard-surfaced roads of
(Juehec and )nfario. In Manitoba
and Saskatchewan road? are chiefly
of dirt, which in wet weathpr becomes
gumbo. Here chains are a real nec
essity after rains. Hut in .July, Aug
ust and September, these roads dry
quickly, after rain and are excellent
for motoring.
"Light woolens will be ncded for
tho cool seaside climate of the Mari
time provinces in thp east. Lighter
clothing will suffice along the St.
Lawrence river resorts although the
nights are cool. In the Ottawa vai
ley and in Ontario., the days are
quite warm although outer wr tps for
night wear will be useful. Warmer
clothing will be needed by the motor
ist in Manitoba. Saskatchewan and
Alherta even in July and August
where the days are warm but the
climate quite changeable.
"In the Rocky mountain districts
of Alberta, temperatures vary with
the altitude and fairly warm clothing
should be carried, although in the
valley the summer temperature is
most -attractive. On the 'Pacific
coast tho temperature is uniform and
seldom too hot or too cold.
