"S. A. R. SPECIAL" TO THE MINNEAPOLIS CONGRESS ! ! ! The Burlington Railroad has been selected as the official route to the 58th Annual Congress convening in Minneapolis, May 23rd to 26th. A special section, known as the "S. A. R. SPECIAL," has been set aside on the "Morning Zephyr" leaving Union Station, Chicago, at 9 a. m. on Sunday morning, May 23rd, arriving at Minneapolis in the early afternoon. The "S. A. R . SPECIAL" will be made up of the new Vista Dome Cars now in regular operation on the Burlington Route which afford an unobstructed view in every direction and give the traveler the opportunity to enjoy the superbly beautiful scenic trip for more than 300 miles along the upper Mississippi River. The Vista Dome Cars are the last word in travel comfort but are at the coach rate rather than Pullman and, therefore, Compatriots need purchase only coach fare tickets from Chicago to Minneapolis. It is suggested that in making their reservations .to Chicago, Compatriots specify that they wish to connect with the "Morning Zephyr" of the Burlington Route so that local railroad agents will arrange proper connecting reservations. Compatriots from the eastern states can make connections with the "S. A. R. SPECIAL" by taking the usual night trains on Saturday evening, May 22nd, from New York, Philadelphia, Harrisburg, Baltimore and Washington. For reservations on the "S. A. R. SPECIAL" write at once to: W. M. Moloney, General Agent, Compatriot A. M. Collins, Burlington Route, ur Burlington Representative 711 Bankers Building, 1238 Fidelity-Philadelphia Trust Bldg., Chicago 3, Ill. Philadelphia 9, Pa.
