ONSERYATIYE PAPER APPROVES ACTION OF OLIVER GOVERNMENT (Nelson News) Action taken by the British Columbia goverrrrr.er.t, to advertise the province to eastern Canada, by a campaign of newspaper aevc:tlslr.s, extending, for this season, to the middle of July, will be universally approved. The period over which thc advertising will be done, and the association with It of the Vancouver and Victoria pub licity bureaus, who will assist the pro vince's publicity bureau suggests that Its primary design ' will be to attract .ourl&ts and trippers for summer trips, for cither ploosure or serious purpose. Advertisements are being placed in !3 dally and 75 weekly papers that between them cover the east. If only for the money left in the province by the trippers, the advertising will be worth while. But that wilt be the smallest result. The big result will be giving an lm pctus to the cult of British Columbia in the cast, and helping along a sentl-jicnt to think British Columbia-way. Such a sentiment will some day send big men and little to this province to take part in the development and set- Llement of it.
