The rate is practically on the basts of one fare for the round trip. Of course, if you wish to visit both California and Oregon or Washington, the cost is slightly more. These reduced rates are in effect on certain dates in months of May to October, inclusive. They apply from all Eastern points via Chicago, St Louis or Memphis gateways. The Rock Island System will take you up in eitherChicago or St. Louts,or at hundred* of other Middle West points and carry you to the Coast in through Standard or Tourist Sleepers with unexcelled Dining Car service. The Rock Island also affords a choice of routes: on the Scenic route you can stop off in Colorado—see Salt Lake City—viai.1 Yellowstone National Park; on the “Southern” route you can go via El Paso, thru New Mexico, then “up coast” to San Francisco and on to Portland or Seattle if desired. In short, these Pacific Coast excursions offer an unusually good chance to see our western country in a comprehensive manner. If you desire to go only as far as Colorado, there are excursion rates in effect to that section and return, all summer long, specially reduced June 30 to July 4, August 12 and LB, and August 30 to September 4. Extension trips to Ogdco or Salt Lake and return at low cost also.
