WE

CONSCIOUS?

SELLING
OUR
(M.
E.
ANDERER)
I
was
along
the
waterfront
recently
just
after
an
American
warship
had
docked
at
the
Governmerit
wharf.
By
that
time
some
of
the
officers
and
ship's
company
had
been
given
shore
leave
and
they
were1
anxious
to
see
the
town.
As
they
came
ashore
they
looked
west
and
then
east
wondering
how
they
might
reach
our
city.
There
was
not
a
-
direction
sign
to
help
them.
In
three
cases
they
started
east
towards
Cow'Bay,
still
wonder-ins
how
they
might
reach
our
1
well-hidden
town
and
then
they
noticed
the
overhead
bridge
so
they
turned
back
and
made
their
way
over
It.
That
brought
them
to
the
naval
buildings
at
the
foot
of
McBride
Street
and
still
there
was
no
sign
to
Indicate
to
them
where
the
main
part
of
the
city
was.
What
a
welcome!
Now
first
impressions
have
a
Brest
effect
on
people,
and

and
that

We
should
be

than
that.
tourists
are
informed
properly
and
sympathetically
before
they
arrive
here,
of
the
points
of
Interest
In
the
city
and
Its
attrac
tions.
I
have
heard
officials
on
the
steamships
say:
Prince
Rupert?
That's
where
it
always
rains."
Now
that
might
be
an
attraction,
for
a
desert
dweller,
but
It
is
not
a
recommendation
to
the
ordinary
tourists
ad,
more-Over,
it
Is
not
true.
This
is
one
aspect
of
the
tourist
business.
In
which
the
public
relations
officials
of
the
companies
concerned
need
to
do
some
educational
work.
Up-to-date
folders
should
be
freely
provided
and
supplied
to
the
tourists.
This
might
well
be
supplemented
by
information
given
by
officials
and
employees
of
the
companies.
On
a
recent
trip
east
by
train,
I
could
not;
help
but
be
very
unfavourably

of
the
operators
of

of
these
ot
telling
my
fellow
travellers
of
facilities
to
make
sure
that
the
the
country
as
we
passed
points
of
Interest.
The
Skeena
River,
the
canneries,
the
towns,
the
Umber,
the
farms,
settlements,
the
Bulkley
River,
the
many
lakes,
the
possibilities
of
development,
the
history
of
past
accomplishments
and
failures-each
provldeed
topics
of
interest.
And
as
I
left
my
fellow
travellers
they
were
loud
in
the
expressions
of
appreciation
for
the
Information
given.
It
had
made
their
trip
so
much,
more-
interesting.
I
had
been
able
to
answer
some
of
the
hundreds
of
questions
that
are
in
the
mind
of
every
traveller
as
he
sees
these
places
for
the
first
time.
That
is
a
service
that
should
be
given
freely
and
generously
to
all
travellers.
The
same
thing
has
happened
as
I
travel
by
boat.
My
companions
want
to
know
the
names
of
the
Islands,
the
lighthouses,
the
narrow
passages,
the
next
port
of
call,
when
we
would
get
there,
how
many
miles
between
places,
what
the
industries
are,
why
people
live
there.
Question
after
question
is
on
their
lips
and
little
attempt
is
made
by
the
companies
to
answer
or
anticipate
situations
or
adequate
steps
taken
to
meet
them.
These
charges
may
be
fairly
levelled
against
the
transportation
com-pales
in
very
many
cases.
WE'RE
GUILTY
OURSELVES
But
we
are
guilty
ourselves.
In
our
city
there
are
three
.groups
to
be
considered
in
connection
with
tourist
travel.
There
are
the
business
men,
there
are
the
taxi
companies,
there
is
the
general
public.
How
does
each
the
group
do
its
part

demands
of
the
tourist
trade??
Do
the
Business
Interests
wait
until
the
tourists
walk
into
their
stores?
?
Or
do
they
advertise
their
wares?
Is
there
any
preview
given
to
their
prospective
visitors?
Are
there
signs
along
the
road
telling
travellers
where
they
may
obtain
the
best
sou
venirs,
or
the
best
meals,
or
the
best
accommodation?
And
do
the
signs
tell
the
travellers
how
to
get
to
these
various
places?
I
have
seen
cars
stop
inside
the
city
limits
as
the
travellers
wondered
how
to
get
into
the
city.
I
have
seen
cars
stop
at
McBride
Street
with
the
travellers
wondering
again
where
they
might
go
for
meals
or
other
require
ments,
is
tnis
indicative
of
a
wide-awake
community
desirous
of
catering
to
a
trade
that
should
ever
be
on
the
increase
Does
it
make
a
traveller
feel
that
he
Is
wanted
here
or
Just
tolerated?
Of
course
our
taxi
companies
show
the
tourists
over
the
city
and
it
would
surprise
some
of
our
citizens
to
know
what
a
good
job
the
drivers
do
in
taking
the
visitors
to
the
many
attractive
gardens
and
homes.
I
Our
city
has
may
interesting
attractions.
We
should
boost
them
far
more
tha
we
do.
Our
museum,
our
totem
poles,
our
parks
including
Roosevelt
Park,
our
Yacht
Club,
courthouse
with
its
very
attractive
grounds
and
sunken
garden
at
the
rear,
and
then
our
waterfront.
I
have
never
had
a
visitor
yet
who
was!
not
tremedously
impressed
with
If
the
unloading
and
sorting
of
the,
halibut
catches.
Some
"have!
watched
the
process
for
an
hour.
There
are
very
few
places
In
the
world
that
can
duplicate
thts
feature
of
the
life
of
our
city.!
There
are
the
storage
plants,
the
Canadian
Fish
and
Cold
Storage,
the
Northern
Fishermen's
Cold
Storage,
the
Prince
Rurert
Fisherme's
Co-operative
Association,
and
the
many
fish
The
Dominion
Government
litself
is
very
lax
in
its
cbnsidera-
tion
of
visitors.
Nowhere
is
there
ay
information
displayed
In
the
post
office
to
assist
the
tourist.
There
should
be
a'
large
and
clearly
worded
notice
board
telling
on
what
days
and
at
what
times
the
mall
leaves;
where
it
leaves
for,
with
the
times
of
the
closing
of
the
mail
for
each
train
or
boat
or
plane.
I
can
well
believe
this
would
bo
a
valuable
service
to
many
of
our
citizens.

has
done
a
good
job
and
will
do
an
even
better
one
with
its
increasing
experience.
But
the
business
men
of
the
city
must
do
their
full
share
to
anticipate
the
needs
and
exDectatlons
of
the
tourist,
and
every
citizen
must
do
his
share
too.
The
citizens
have
a
well-founded
reputation
for
hospitality
but
we
must
make
an
extra
effort
to
make
all-tour
ists
feel
that
they
are
welcomed
here.
We
must
become
more
tourist-conscious.
It

dividends
from

but
it
will
pay
fori
bigger

dividends
from
