Virginia, Notice!

By R. D. Hottel

Since advertising rates for the camp-meeting at Stanleyton, Page County, in the papers and on the bills, we are sure that there will not be fifty coming over those roads under the certificate plan, and in this case no reduction on the return trip could be secured. We now advise all who come over the Southern Railroad to buy round-trip summer excursion tickets to Luray. Luray is only seven miles from Stanleyton, the place of the meeting. Bear in mind that the fare will be $1.35 less if you do not want to go into the Caverns at Luray. These rates are from points on the Southern, and may be obtained on the other roads also. Make full inquiry before starting to the meeting. If the station is not a coupon station, you will have to notify the agent ahead in order to get your tickets. Those coming over the Chesapeake and Ohio will use the card orders, and those coming over the Norfolk and Western will get reduced rates, as advertised. We have sent this information to all who are likely to come under the certificate plan, and insert the notice in the REVIEW and the Gleaner in hopes that it will be seen by all in time. If you can not buy the summer excursion tickets, you will have to get the best rates you can. We are sorry that we can not do any better, but the roads mentioned say they can not, under the rules, change the arrangements.

In coming to Luray on the summer excursion ticket, you will of course have to pay your fare to Stanleyton from Luray, and look after your baggage. By seeing the conductor in time, perhaps you can do this without changing trains. R. D. Hottel.
