A

the

has
almost
no
natural

in
this
eity
or
in
our
eouiflry,
for
that
matter.
Even
those

who
object

the
sometimes
strident

of
the

or
who
think
his

to
be
on

garish
side,
refrain
from
discouraging
his
presence
because
of
the
valuable
greenbacks
that
become
detached
as
the
friendly
fellow
flutters
from
one
attraction
to
another.
These
greenbacks
are
eagerly
sought
by
collectors
and
until
quite
recently
their
detachment
here
was
facilitated
by
the
action
of
a
little-understood
natural
phenomenon
known
as
"a
more-favor-able-rate-of
-exchange"
or
briefly,
a
premium
This
year
fears
are
being
expressed
that
we
may
not
see'as
many
of
the
visitors
as
in
previous
summers.
A
change
in
the
financial
climate
has
caused
the
disappearance
of
the
premium
and
it
is
believed
this
may
discourage
migration.
The
government
is
said
to
be
considering
some
special
measures
to
lure
them
across
the
border
and
one
newspaper
columnist
has
suggested
that
a
good
method
would
be
to
have
the
CBC
stay
on
the
air
a
couple
of
hours
longer
at
night
to
beam
music
and
other
encouraging
sounds
in
the
direction
of
tlx?
tourists'
habitat.
It
is
doubted
in
other
quarters,
however,
that
the
CBC
could
put
on
a
program
tliat
would
be
so
effective.
Meanwhile,
we
are
quite
certain
that
in
Prince
Rupert,
for
example,
no
merchant
or
establishment
ft-hieh
has
lured
onto
its
premises
the
migrants
will
look
disparagingly
upon
the
greenbacks,
as
if
they
were
of
doubtful
origin.
We
will
surely
do
no
such
thing
as
to
look
just
a
little
bewildered
at
the
sight
of
the
greenbacks,
not
knowing
just
whether
the
bearers
are
from
Mars,
Jupiter
or
the
Moon.
Neither

we,
who
are
expecting
to

hold
up
our
quaint
