Aboard Convention 



V 



just sent us some very alluring travel 

 folders on Florida. It makes you wish 

 it were cold so you could take the lAA 

 train trip to Florida and forget the 

 weather. 



A complete booklet on each trip has 

 been printed by each railroad. They 

 should answer your questions. For one 

 of the booklets or any questions you may 

 have about either trip address your in- 

 quiries to: Roy Johnson, Illinois Agri- 

 cultural Association, 43 E. Ohio Street, 

 Chicago 11, Illinois. 



We have made plans for 500 Farm 

 Bureau folks to take the trip. Johnson 

 says that of the first 200 requests to 

 come in, a big share were from those 

 who went to San Francisco two years 

 ago. They had a good time. They 

 want to go again. 



For that matter, we wish all our 155,- 

 000 Farm Bureau members in Illinois 

 could go. We know you'd enjoy it! 



Below is the skyline of America's winter 

 playground city of Miami whicii will be 

 visited on tiie Soutliern tour being spon- 

 sored by tlie Illinois Agricultural Associa- 

 tion en route to tiie AFBF convention In 

 Atlantic City.

This is the reconstructed palace whlcli 

 housed the British royal colonial governors 

 at Williamsburg, Vo. It will be visited on 

 the eastern lAA trip. It was built from 

 T706 to 1718 and was the center of fash- 

 Ion and social life in the Virginia colony. 



REQUESTS are rolling in from 

 every corner of the state for berths 

 on one of the lAA convention 

 trains. It looks like a "smash 

 hit" sellout. And even though De- 

 cember may seem like a long way off, we 

 suggest you clip the reservation request 

 on this page and send it along, if you're 

 planning to go. 



As you know, we're planning two 

 trips and have chartered two trains for 

 those who plan to go to the annual meet- 

 ing of the American Farm Bureau Fed- 

 eration. It will be held this year Dec. 

 13-16 in Atlantic City, N. J. One train 

 will go an eastern route with stops in the 

 east at Washington, D. C, Williamsburg, 

 Beltsville, New York City and other 

 cities. A second train will travel a 

 southern route through vacation spots in 

 Florida and up the Atlantic seaboard to 

 Washington and Atlantic City. 



The lAA is arranging a special visit 

 to the United Nations headquarters at 

 Lake Success, N. Y., where those who 

 take the eastern trip will be able to see 

 diplomats from foreign countries at work 

 in the general assembly or in smaller 

 conference groups. 



The beauty spots of Florida will be 

 visited by the Farm Bureau folks who go 

 on the southern route. The railroad has
