Specifications, orders, instructions, everything that is needed to complete business transactions can be at its destination, in writing, within 24 hours by AIR MAIL./ Flying with the speed of the wind, at more than 3 miles a minute, night and day on regular schedules, AIR MAIL covers Canada from Coast to Coast, and from North to South, and connects with other lines providing service on this Continent and overseas./ Use this great time-saving service to speed your business. If you are engaged in war production, it will eliminate delays in correspondence, secure prompt attention for your letters. Even if you are not engaged in war production, AIR MAIL always commands attention. Use it for every possible advantage in your business. Time is more precious today than ever before./ Use your regular envelopes, mark them "AIR MAIL", affix 6[cents] postage for the first ounce, 5 [cents] for each additional ounce, and drop them in any mail box./ Ask your local Postmaster for information on AIR MAIL rates to the United states, and other parts of the world./ AIR MAIL letters command attention, get prompt reply. Start using AIR MAIL today./ Canadians proved in the first Great War that they are good flyers. Their magnificent record of achievement did much to make Canada "air-minded"./ The returned flyers pioneered air transportation in Canada. Their vision, courage and flying skill carried the first planes over the trackless lakes and forests of the North./ Flying often by the "feel o' the ship", they brought passengers, supplies, and news of the outside world to other pioneers who were developing the rich resources of new parts of the Dominion.
