Pettijohns Were on Train Halted by Mud And Rocks.

Mud and loose rocks piled high over the railroad tracks near Field, Canada, changed the itinerary of Dr. and Mrs. B. B. Pettijohn when they were on a recent rail trip to Lake Louise and Banff, A glacier had broken loose, they discovered when their train sud denly stopped within 18 miles of Lake Louise, “Such a thing is not an unusual sight for the inhabitants of that part of the country,” Mrs, Pettijohn explained. “But it was a tre mendous shock to us to see the train tracks and the surrounding territory being swallowed up by such a rushing avalanche.” After a delay of 18 hours, the Pettijohns and the group of Indi anapolis persons with whom they were traveling abandoned the train and boarded a bus which was forced to carry them by a round-about road to their destination.

Traveled 7600 Miles

“We traveled 7600 miles days,” Mrs. Pettijohn said in deescribing their cross-country tour, which was conducted by Vernon Hinkle,
