This bureau is managed by men who give all of their time to the solution of tourist problems. We are wholesalers in travel service. Our big purchasing power buys the best of everything. Hotels, resorts and transportation companies leave nothing undone to supply our escorted tours with the degree of high-class service demanded by this organization. The two weeks Vacation Tours for 1917, herewith presented, have been produced by the best thought of trained, experienced minds. Moreover, these tours are to be sold at cost. Our department does not work for profit; it sells service, safety and scenery at a "priced- at-cost" rate. This season we offer "Two National Parks in two weeks," featuring the wonderful Yellowstone and the splendid new Rocky Mountain (Estes) National Park. Five days in the former and two and one-half days in the latter, with side excursions into Utah and out from Denver, make up, with the train travel, what I believe to be the best two weeks vacation trip in America. Another important point: We have chosen the fast and direct rail routes in order to avoid the tedium of any unnecessary train travel.

Huatulco, Mexico Nine bays bordered by 36 golden-sand beaches form the beautiful Las Bahias de Huatulco in the state of Oaxaca. Welcome to Mexico's newest resort on the Pacific Riviera. Huatulco is a tropical Eden with crystalline waters, coral reefs, and uncrowded beaches. Inland, the rugged coast range is thickly carpeted with rainforest and coffee plantations. While Huatulco is still in its early stages of development, travelers may note that the resort has a different feel from other destinations on the Mexican Riviera. That's because large areas of Huatulco have been designated as an ecological reserve. Huatulco is located in the state of Oacaca where the foothills of the Sierra Madre del Sur Mountains meet the Pacific Ocean. Bahia de Huatulco Piedra de Moros Located at the southern tip of the Southern Sierra Madre mountains, A community kitchen in La Crucecita where local chefs demonstrate the beautiful Bay of Huatulco is Mexico's largest ecological reserve how to make regional foods, including delicious tortillas and tamales. and home to many unspoiled sandy beaches.( Copalita River Santa Cruz Bay This amazing river, four miles north-east of the Tangolunda bay, is This stunning bay is famed for it's 'sleeping man' rock formation and home to precious trees including cedar, mahogany and almond, and 'blowhole', an ocean-side rock formation that foams like a geyser. also 227 species of birds such as egrets and falcons. y La Crucecita La Entrega Bay A traditional artisanal Oaxacan town that features a charming plaza, The rustic and relaxing Las Brisas beach resort in Huatulco, sits and peaceful white-washed church that houses the largest painting of perched above the beautiful Tangolunda coastline and is almost the virgin de Guadalupe, in Mexico.

They may reflect inadequate previous training or merely a bad start. In such cases in- dividual help of the kind that seeks to find and remove causes as well as to teach subject matter is often most desirable. It is this kind of tutoring that we aim to give. To this end we have tutors who add personal interest to the requisite scholarship and teaching experience. Needed tutoring taken early in the term not only assists with current work but gives a better basis for future work.
