NEWFOUNDLAND 
A Country of Fish and Game 
A Paradise for the Camper and Angler 
Ideal Canoe Trips 
The country traversed by the Reid Newfoundland Company’s system is exceedingly rich in all 
kinds of Fish and Game. All along the route of the Railway are streams famous for their Salmon 
and Trout fishing, also Caribou barrens. Americans who have been fishing and hunting in New¬ 
foundland say there is no other country in the world in which so good fishing and hunting can 
be secured and with such ease as in Newfoundland. Information, together with illustrated 
Booklet and Folder, cheerfully forwarded upon application to 
J. W. N. Johnstone, General Passenger Agent, Reid Newfoundland Co., St. John’s, Newfoundland 
lights and soft with streaming banners. 
Canoes are drawn high on the beach and 
outlined again in the mirror of the water’s 
surface. Bungalows and tents melt alike 
into the contour of the trees forming their 
background, and to the picture is lent the 
mystic witchery of an enchanted hour. 
Nature’s orchestra of crickets and katy¬ 
dids are heard in a quaint roundelay that 
never ceases. 
Strung along the beach are groups of 
campers, each jovial crowd with wit and 
jest bandying their neighbors, or silent or 
melodious to the trumming of banjo and 
mandolin. A huge campfire blazing on the 
beach is sending high into the air a mass 
of sparks, which tumble back in pyrotech- 
nic showers to whiten and die upon the 
sandy beach. 
Some of these campfires are genuine 
works of caloric art. Hours may have 
been spent dragging dried chestnut logs 
from the woods to the beach, and arrang¬ 
ing them in a huge pyramid for the even¬ 
ing campfire. And where the ruddiest fire 
glows, there the largest crowd congregates. 
Independence Day is one of the biggest 
and most enjoyable at Croton Beach, but 
the season lasts well beyond it and Labor 
Day is usually a repetition of it for jollifi¬ 
cations. Aquatic stunts mark the two holi¬ 
days, and the largest crowds of the sum¬ 
mer are up the river to witness them. The 
Hudson River Racing Association holds its 
annual Labor Day Regatta off the beach. 
And Haverstraw Bay, whose wide expanse 
stretches opposite Croton Beach, presents 
a gala sight, with motor boats of every de¬ 
scription from water line to masthead pass¬ 
ing in and out all day long. 
The wonder of it all is that so few com¬ 
paratively of the millions who live within 
teach of these delights, have learned to 
enjoy them. For there are numerous other 
beaches, further up and down the Hudson 
from New York—and of course similar 
possibilities within reach of every other 
city that is located on a watercourse—that 
afford just as ideal opportunities for a 
summer outing with minimum expense and 
maximum enjoyment. It is up to America 
to search out these lurking places of in¬ 
nocent fun and make good use of them 
this summer and those that are to come. 
The nation’s nerves are about to be tried 
sorely, and relief that modest and econom¬ 
ical relaxation for those who must carry 
through, can afford them, should be con¬ 
sidered no less a patriotic duty than any 
other measure for keeping the nation fit.
