Okanagan Lake, until Penticton comes to view,
replete with modern facilities. Summerland, Kelowna,
Oyama, and Vernon, all bordering on the Okanagan
Lake present their own individual beauty of land-
scape. No spot in British Columbia is more beautiful

in the springtime than the lovely orchard district of
the Okanagan Lake where health is a byword and
rest is assured.

Unfortunately, this chapter will always be incom-
plete until the day comes when we shall be able to
extend our pathway to the “Land of the Midnight
Sun"... the Yukon and its northern forests .. Alaska,
with its industries . . . and, ultimately, the ice-flows
of the Arctic.

Today, also, as in the past, men of vision, men
of faith and courage, are visualizing the future...
planning, preparing for the mightiest highway pro-

territory connecting with the road system of Alaska.
For more than a century we neighbours — Canada
and the United States—have lived in peace, harmony
