CALGARY GATEWAY 10 THE ROCKIES - It Is Here Britsh Prince Spends Vacation Washington, D. C., Aug. 11—"Cal- - gary, Canadian destination of the Prince of Wales, whose annual ro- de> has again upheld her claim-to the title of ‘Queen of the Wild and Woolly West," is in reality a thriv- ing business center comparable to the magic citied of longer settled parts of the continent,” says a bul- tetin from the Washington, D. C., headquarters of the National Geo- graphic society. “Born with the advent of the Canadian Pacific railroad in the middle eighties, Calgary has reached an estimated population of seventy- five thousand and s growing ra- pidly. Oldest City in Alberta “Although a mere jumping-oft place at the coming of the railroad, and credited with but four thousand * inhabitants by the census of 1901, the city’s roots strlke far deeper into the past. Nearby {is the site of Yort La Jonquiore, founded by FFrench explorers in 1752,” continues the bulletin. “Old Bow Fort, which took its name from Bow river on whose banks the modern town lles four square, was a trading post for many years. The settlement figured in Riel's rebellion of half-breeds and Indlans in 1885. “Now the metropolis of a broad grazing country and eastern gate- way to the Canadian Rockies, Cal- . gary annually links up her plctur- esque past with a robust present by means of a ‘stampede’ carnival of frontier sports and cowboy daring. Wales' Ranch Nearby “Not far away, on the Highwood river, stretches the E-P ranch where the heir to the British throne raises blooded cattle by proxy. A contingent from the royal ranch always forms a noteworthy exhibit at the Calgary cattle show, com- peting for the coveted blue ribbon with many miles of surrounding -OUR BOARDING EGAD MEA, ~« OKE OF -THE LADS HAS DISCOVERED THAT MATTS DISGUISE AS A WOMAN IS A HOAX! «e Now “THEM, BEFORE IT BECOMES isea cow country. “The prairies of southern Alberta, lying more than 3,000 feet above level, are a world-famous ranching range, tempered in the winter by the warming chinook winds, which find their way through the mountain passes from the Pa- cific coast. Outdoor grazing is pos- sible the year round, thanks to the kindly chinooks, whose dry warm breezes lap up the winter snows. Formerly given over entirely to ranching, this elevated plateau fast becoming a famous dairy.ana wheat country as well. “Calgary, hub of this bustling activity, combines the rough hearti- ness of her hinterland with a new urban dignity of her own. Like many cities of western United States, she is laid out in neat geo- metrical squares, looking from the alr like a Titanlc cross-word puz- zle, only part of whose spaces have been filled in. Far-seeing city fathers surveyed broad avenues on magnificent lines, along which lie pleasant houses of gray-brown sandstone from nearby quarries, lighted and heated by natural gas, another useful local product. “Near the railway rises a ten- story modern Thotel, dominating with its height the nearby plains. From its roof one obtains a mag- nificent panorama of Rocky Moun- tains saw-toothing the western sky- line. Gateway to Canadian Rockies “Calgary is the most important commercial point on the trunk line of the Canadian-Pacific between Winnipeg and Vancouver. Here the traveler from the eastern seaboard gets his first whiff of mountain’ air and here he smacks his lips in an- ticipation of the approaching—joys of Banff and Lake Louise, Mecca and DMedina of pilgrims to the northern Rockies. Both are joined to Calgary by first class automobile roads. Banff, with its world-famous springs and resort, hotel, is 90 miles away, while Lake Louise, reflecting in its crystal clear waters the cold blue magnificence of Victoria gla- cier, is the next point'of interest bevond. “From Calgary a branch line of the rallway runs northward to Ed- monton, capital of Alberta and seat of the head of the province's edu- cational system, said to be the most HOUSE SAID NoTHIN' NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, THURSDAY, AUGUST 11, 1927. northern university on the conti- nemt, a sort of American Edin- burgh.
