E. I. ATTRACTIONS. Prince Edward Island is the heat spot on earth in which to spend a vacation. It is more, it is the ideal land we’ve all heard and sung about in the halcyon days of childhood and youth, “The Land of Pure Delight." Home of its outstanding features are: A LAND OF BEAUTY. , Three hundred and seventy-eight years ago Jacques Cartier wrotez- "All this land is low and the most beautiful. . . . This is e. land oi the best temperature which it is possible to see." Thousands oi tour- ist VlBit0l`B BU’-Bat that it is more beautiful today, and the most at- tractive summer resort in the entire Domiuionof Canada. A nsnlonrrun summon CLIMATE. ' Gentle breezes laden with the breath of the sea blow from the south and the west all through the long summer days, dying with the rcd and gold amber and green oi a gorgeous sunset. The nights are al- ways cool and bright, refreshing rest and sleep. There are no logs. , 4 A LAND OF HEALTH. In no country docs so large a proportion of the people live to a green old age. Only about one per cent of the population dies each year. The report of the Registrar of Vital Statistics for the year 1911, in which yenr the mortality was larger than usual, shows that of a total of 1.114 dcnths there were _ 566 over 00 years of age; 411 over 70 years of age; ' 21! over 80 years of age; 42 over 90 years of nge; Tho infant mortality of other countries is almost unknown here. There is no other land under the sun where 40 per cent of the p0lJ\lluY.I0n live to pose the seventy year span of life! A LAND OFABUNDANCE. In no other country is there greater abundance oi the best food and of clear, sparkling water in town and rural districts alike. Lamb of the finest flavor; Eggs, milk, butter and cheese; 'Lbs mostluscious oysters inthe world; Lobsters in great abundance; Sea and brook trout, mackerel, cod. etc.; \ Wild geese, brunt, plover, duck and partridge in their season; Strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, cranbcrries; Apples and plums of rare excellence; cherries and small fruit are plcntliully produced. AGREEABLE SOCIAL CONDITIONS. The Island is socially a land of the golden mean. Few are very rich and almost none are Door. The great majority enjoy comfort and prosperity. Sobrlety and order everywhere prevail. In no part of the American Continent is there proportionately so little serious crime. There are no tramps and beggars are unknown. Churches and schools are abundant. _ ‘ POSTAL 'AND OTHER FACILITIES. There are 468 post offices-one to every 45 square miles- Throughout a large part of thc Province there is free delivery oi the mails daily at the farmers' road gates. The Prince, Edward Island Railway intersects the Island in every di- rection, bringing four-fifths of its area within five miles of the rails. Telephone lines all over the Island connect 175 towns, villages and settlements. . e SOME SPECIAL ATTRACTIONS FOR TOURISTS v " ON THE NORTH; SIIOTIE.
