VACATION ISSUE • JUL Y 1947 VACATION ISSUE • JULy 1947 ou MAY HAVE the impression that the fabulous Captain Kidd buried all the treasure of the colonies ... but it is our opinion that he Ynever saw the most valuable of young America's treasures at all. For history seems to indicate that Captain Kidd never sailed the shores of Southern New England How the Captain's eyes would have gleamed if they had rested on New England's silver sands or upon her crystal-clear lakes, majestic mountains and historic shrines. Perhaps he. would even have forsaken the sparkling waters of the Indian Ocean. Although the celebrated Captain long ago lost his chance at New England's treasures, you who are reading this can still see, feel and enjoy them . and a lot more . for much has since been added in recreational facilities, in hospitable inns and in modern travel com- forts. This vacation treasure chest is yours . yours to unlock with any one of the following Keys to Southern New England. :,_,-~- I!:.· NANJU T . With your first glimpse of this low wind-swept island,. unctuated by trim Brants Point Light, you'll feel the presence oi unspoiled antiquity, dating back to the earliest sea-f~ring days of the Colonies. Here, on picturesque Nantucket, are the treasured t'~lics of a swashbuckling whaling post. Slow-moving, horse-drawn sur­ reys still jog down Nantucket's cobblestoned Maln Street. Bees hum busily in wistaria vines and rose bushes cluster over silver-shingled homes, with "walks" on the roofs where the families of old whaling crews scanned the horizon for the return of their menfolk. Yet, with all its color of old-world romance, Nantucket offers the modem sports­ man an infinite choice of activity. RHODI ND . Rich as it is in colonial charm and historic legend, blessed with 400 miles of scenic shoreline, it's not surpris- i~ that Rhode Island has blossomed into its present glamour status in odem society. What it lacks in size, Rhode Island more than makes in gaiety, and summer vacation. pleasures. If it's sports you want, Rhode Island offers you everything there is from deep-sea fishing to splendid saddle horses. If you would rather be a spectator, there are yacht races, polo matches, golf and tennis tournaments with the nation's stars participating ... not to mention the horse races at the Lincoln, Pascoag and Narragansett Park tracks. MART1fA'I VINEYARD . Take rolling farmlands, green ponds and salty .&es, dignified old gray stone houses, spic-and-span white ljgj!Jfh'ouses, a dramatic parade of magnificent dunes, color-splashed ~1iing villages, flawless beaches. Add the tang of sea breezes and the ress of golden sunshine, surround it all by the surf-charged, blue Atlantic and you have a mild idea of Martha's Vineyard. 3 • The fishing docks alive with the activities of lobstermen, the shaded streets lined with the homes of old-time sea captains, tell the story f how America began. / ' CON NJCTICUT ." . Nowhere will you find more opportunity for relaxation and summer happiness than in the invigorating atmosphere of inland Connecticut, or along the breeze-swept shores of Long Island ound with its miles of silvery beaches studded with colorful yacht and country clubs. Connecticut offers a limitless variety of things to enjoy ... the well-preserved colonial charm of early New England dwellings ... an abundance of outdoor sports facilities ... and a wide choice of excellent accommoda- tions ranging from the finest of resort hotels to the friendly hospitality of comfortable colonial inns or the seclusion of your 'own seaside cot­ tage. All through Connec­ ticut you'll find a wealth of romance and history to fire your im­ agination . famous old landmarks ... and shrines that date back ·to Revolutionary days. CAPE ... The 70-·lW!lll'l~ surf, gleam­ i~ lighthouses, antique 1diops . the artist's colonies, smart shops and nightclubs by the sea ... all spell the variety that makes up sunny Cape Cod. You may drive along the Cape Cod Canal or wander about picturesque Provincetown. You can visit the Hyannis branches of New York's most fashionable shops or enjoy the historic landmarks and appealing Colonial architecture of villages bear­ ing such time-honored names as Truro, Wellfleet, Orleans, Sandwich, Falmouth and Onset. From all of which you can gather why the Cape's visitors come back for more year after year. • • Few cities afford the fascinating contrasts of Boston. Her , h " ry comes to life in cherished landmarks of America's early tfuggle for liberty at Bunker Hill, Lexington and Concord. As you a nder through narrow cobblestoned streets you feel instinctively that 4 -<\ We'll Have Them in August ~ W e have just received word from the shops that the first of our new post-war coaches will begin arriving next month.

E ach coach will feature a new type glareless lighting, wide win­ dows, individual reclining seats, finger-tip control on the ves­ tibule doors and a separate smoking compartment. To come later are parlor cars, dining cars, grill cars and observation cars. somehow the spirit and romance of Colonial days have remained un­ touched and unspoiled by the march of years. Yet, just around the corner are towering skyscrapers, spacious de­ partment stores and all the new-world comforts and entertainment of a great, thriving city. THE B RK HIRES AND LITCHFIELD HILLS ... Whether you come for th re tful peace of charming New England towns and quiet valleys, or er the thrill of fast sports and outdoor fun in crystal-clear air, you're sure to obtain a new lease on happiness in the Berkshires. Here is one of New England's most sophisticated playlands in an exquisite setting of natural beauty. The Berkshire Hills afford ideal facilities for just about every outdoor activity in the sportsman's cata­ log. Add to this the Berkshires' excellent hotels, dude ranches, summer colonies, Stockbridge's Playhouse, Berkshire Symphonic Festival, and hospitable old inns that date back to stagecoach days and you have the ingredients for an ideal New England vacation. tains, New Hampshire Lakes, Cranmore Mountain, Franconia Notch and Portland comes to only.$136.65, plus tax. -<\;fe invite you to obtain more complete information by writing to the Travel Bureau, New Haven Railroad, Main Waiting Room, Grand Central Terminal, New York City.

The union was ble ssed with four sons: Titan , Euros, Zephyrus and Notos. Boreas , King of the Winds , aSSigned to each brother a permanent grant of great force and power. • To Titan was assigned the blustery North Wind. • To Euros was granted control of the irresponsible East Wind. • To Zephyru'i was given custody of the bountiful West Wind . • To Notos was presented the balmy South Wind . The brothers cavorted gaily over land and sea. Borea s, while on his extensive travels, came upon a winter paradise known as Minnesota. He paused to beh old the enchanting beauty of a magnificent group of seven gen tly sloping hills in whose embrace nestled a beautiful city . Boreas whistled in sheer ecstasy , " Historic Saint Paul and her seven hillsl An ideal place . I will make Saint Paul the ca pital of all my domain s.
