— Sýningin í Winnipeg er ákveðið
að byrji 25. júlí og endi 29. s. m. Þessi
járnbrautarfélög ætla að flytja alla
sýningarmuni til sýningarinnar og
frá henni aftr endrgjalds laust, svo
framarlega sem eigendaskifti ekki
verða á mununum, og ef þeir verða
sendir til baka aftr strax sem sýningin
er afstaðin til þeirra staða, sem þeir
vóru fluttir frá: Can. Pacific, Man.
& North Western, Northern Pacific
og Great North West Central
járnbrautarfélögin, og Alberta Rail-
way & Coalfélagið. Fyrir sýningarmuni
frá stöðum austr af Manitoba verðr
tekið vanalegt flutningsgjald, en flutt
frítt til baka aftr, ef eigendaskifti
hafa ekki orðið á mununum.
Járnbrautarfélögin hafa einnig
ákveðið að færa fargjald sýningargesta
mjög mikið niðr; sumstaðar svo
mikið að ferðin til og frá verðr
ódýrari en vanalegt fargjald aðra leið.
Vér setjum hér fargjalds-upphæðina
fram og aftr frá nokkrum helztu

— It has been decided that the exhi-
bition in Winnipeg will begin on July
25, and end on the 29th of the same
month. These railroad companies are
going to transport all exhibition items
to the exhibition and from it again with
out any charge, as long as the items
have not exchanged owners, and if
they will be sent back, immediately
following the exhibition, to the places
they were sentfrom: Can. Pacific, Man.
& North Western, Northern Pacific
and Great North West Central railroad
companies, and Alberta Railway & Coal
company. For exhibition items from
locations east of Manitoba the usual
transportation fees will be charged, but
they will be transported free upon re-
tum, if the ownership of these items
has not changed. The railroad compa-
nies have also decided to lower the fare
considerably for the exhibition’s guests;
in some places so much that the return
trip will be cheaper than the usual one-
way fare. We present here the list of
stöðum, sem íslendingar eiga heima á: retum fares from some of the main places where Icelanders live:
East Selkirk $0,65 Glenboro ..4,00
Reaburn 1,05 Gretna ..2,65

Why I read L-H
Johanna Wilson
I enjoy the articles written about pioneer life.
You have a new column that I think will be very
interesting, Icelandic articles from early Lögberg
issues and the English translation alongside.
Coming events help us keep in touch with what
is going on in the Icelandic community.

Your European holiday, centered
around breathtakingly beautiful
lceland, not only puts you in the
very heart of things but saves you
