N6v it has comrnenc6d, we Mist be prepared to steel bin'selVes for hard struggle whicn we all hope will" be crowned with a speedy victory but which we may realistically expect may have its reverses and its disappointments before the final happy issue has been reached.

Things so faf, appear to be going more than well for our side. Local History Is Real Value . . . Local history has a real commercial valfre as well as an esthetic one. The romantic fn6ideh'ts of the past add to the interest, that. features offer. In (he modern big business of totfr-ist travel the worth of history is appreciated. Governments and public 'bodies feature in their allure for the travel trade spots where colorful happenings have occurred and where persons of distinction have lived and worked. The Historic Sites and Monuments Board of Canada has marked' scores of points of national interest across the Dominion. The Provincial Government, working in co-oneratioh with the B.C. Historical Association, ha's added immensely to the glamour of a number of British Columbia' Realities py similar plaques and memorials of the past. There are even great fundamental valu6s to be realized from an appreciation 6f history than the more commercialized Exploitation of the tourist -trade. No country can develop a pride of race, a love of country or a co-ordinated and articulate public spirit in the absence of a knowledge of the inspirational and heroic accomplishments of the past.
