Social Events t. Canadian Parks Said 'Swarming' Cranbrook, B. C, Canada- For a change of scenery while visiting the Banff and Jasper National parks, the motorist need only to drive east to Edmonton and Calgary. It is interesting to watch the mountains disappear dur ing the 234 mile drive from Jasper to Edmonton. The tem perature climbs too, and upon arriving in Edmonton we learned that a record high for that date had been reached. This trio had spent the past several days seeing the sights in both Banff and Jasper parks. One drives only short distances before a view point is reached or there is an his torical or geological point of interest sign. Then there are mountains and mountains and more mountains to try to lo cate and identify as well as numerous glaciers. Finally any mountain under 9,000 feet elevation isn't worth mentioning and smaller lakes along the highway are passed without comment. Weather Ideal The weather continued Ideal throughout the sight see ing and the only objection would be regarding the crowds - there are people here from throughout the world and the ones from Can ada and United States came by car! The streets of Banff swarm with people and it was here that this tourist first saw a Royal Canadian Mounted Police officer directing traffic in his uniform complete with heavy red jacket.. But the red jacket didn't stay on very long. As soon as the traffic thinned out a bit he was in his patrol car and took off the jacket.' Of interest to the many tourists from USA was Mt. Eisenhower visible from High way 1 between Banff and Lake Louise. The mountain was named "in appreciation of the leadership given to the Allied Forces in World War II . . . This plaque placed as an expression of the good will existing between the peo ple of Canada and USA." The plaque was placed by Kiwanis International in 1958. A short drive west from Jasper on Highway 18 into Robson Provincial park - one crosses close to the headwa ters of the Fraser river. The POTPOURRI We've conceived an absolutely brilliant way for some body to make a lot of money. All it will take is a photogra pher who gets about town quite a bit and someone who has a line of cosmetics. This is the way it works. The photographer goes to a gathering of some sort. He aims his camera at a woman preferably an older woman and it is even better if she is somewhat in the public eye and takes a candid picture. He makes up a print, (a good black and white glossy will show up every wrinkle, sagging jaw line, etc.) and mails it to the victim, excuse me, customer. The same morning the pictures arrives and before the shocked female has time to recover, the representative of the cosmetic company calls up. She reminds the victim customer, that is how im portant it is for an older woman to wear cosmetics, properly applied, and how cosmetics can bring out the best points and conceal the less flattering ones. If this doesn't put the prospect in the mood for a demon stration nothing will. And how did Potpourri come by this brilliant idea? It happened to us. Thursday night we attended a reception given at the Britt gardens in Jacksonville for the festival musici ans. The festival photographer took a picture of the women's editor of The Tribune talking with Director Trudeau. When we arrived at work Friday morning it was on our desk. Before the shock had worn off, a Medford woman called to remind us that we had a tentative appointment to have her demonstrate a line of cosmetics. She said it was important for an older woman, especially one who attends many func tions, to look her very best. Cosmetics, properly applied, can help a lot, she assured us. While she talked, we looked at the picture the festival photographer had made. The editorial shoulders drooped, the dress which we had thought looked comfortable and cool looked nothing but sad and sloppy in the picture, and never did we realize that we stood with one foot twined around the other in such a fashion. The women's editor agreed. We certainly did need some thing or the other probably to lose another 10 pounds, some new, smart and well-fitted dresses, some lessons in pos ture and carriage as well as a new line of cosmetics and how to apply them. We told her we'd call her if ever the time comes when we have a. free afternoon. Of course, what happened to the women's editor was sheer coincidence. We don't know what prompted the guilty photographer, but whatever it was, he really did us a favor. There's nothing like a photograph to prove that the image we have of ourselves isn't always the true one.-O.S. Only 2 Days Left! IRWIN STERN FINE FURS AT SALE PRICES!

The gravelled highway is part of the route which will follow the Fraser river from that point west ward to Prince George. Friendly People As one enters Edmonton the billboard says "300,000 friend ly persons to serve you." How right they are. While driving around the city early one morning sight seeing, we pull ed to the side of the street to check our location on the map. Before the map could be consulted a car with an Alberta license stopped and a young man hopped out to direct us to where we wanted to go. This friendliness vas also encountered during the tour of the province's legislative building, the province's green houses and other points of in terest. In both Edmonton and Cal gary new construction in the downtown areas are quite in evidence. Edmonton has a $100,000,000 civic center plan under way. In Calgary, while no center plan was learned of, new high buildings down town were everywhere. An evening drive around Calgary disclosed many beau tiful buildings - but no names. Several times the car had to stop so someone could get out to see if a name could be fniinri F.von a resident, when asked, only knew the building by its initials but couldn t tell us if it was for the pro vincial or federal government. Calgary is also extending westward alone Highway 1. the Tran. Panaris highway. and in addition to two giant shopping centers mere are res- idences and apartments in abundance.
