The Midnight Sun Season 1928

We’ve seen booklets with this title before dated 1937 and 1950, both of which had covers decorated with identical images of a totem pole, mountain, and an abstract sun, though in different colors. This one has a very different cover, but much of the interior content is the same. Unlike the later editions, the back cover of this one is an advertisement for Jasper Park Lodge.

“When your voyage is ended, may you take this booklet with you, that it may serve as a fitting moment of a happy summer’s cruise, spent as a guest of Canadian National Steamships.” Is that a grammatical error or did the writer really intend to say “may you take” rather than “you may take”? Unfortunately, the same invitation isn’t found in the 1937 edition, so we may never know.
