The public meeting of the P. E. I. Tour- ist and Improvement 'Association and citizens was largely attended last night, the City Court Room being well filled.
The President, Hon. George E. Hughes
spoke briefly refering to the prospect of the U. S. North American squadron com- ing to this port and to the fact that in- quiries had been made by the U.S.author» ities oi’ Consul Vail. He thought an in- vitation should be extended and an effort made to have some of the British and American warships present during Old Home Week and a military tournament.
P. S. Brown who had another engage-
ment offered all assistance that he could possibly give.
Lieut. Gov. McKinnon endorsed thc
idea oi’ an Old Home week. The Island had been advertised during the past months as a. country of storms and now tho brighter side should be shown. Tho Old Home Week sholuld be well adver- tised, Isiand people should write their friends and every possible method should be taken to bring the Old Home Week bc- foro Islanders abroad. He thought the extensive migration was imprudent as greater hardships might be met abroad than here.
Mayor Kelly endorsed all that the
previous speaker had§said. An Old Home Week would bo a great benedt as the one ih Summorslde last year had proved to be tothe entire province. He_instanced the great advantage of advertising the pro- vince through the New Efigland states. Allmust unite and give a helping hand. With such united eriort thu Old Home success, both socially and financially. U. B. Consul Vail pointed out that ad-
vertising abroad would not bring all its fruits ln one year but would be effective for many Years. Ile had been asked by the Navy Department to make a report of the harbors of the province and that would appear as if n. visit were contcmpla
ted.
Col._Moore said the militia were always willing to lend every possible aid. If thc~ Old Home week could be arranged during the time the militia were in Camp he couldf promise a display probably never excelled in this province. Capt. T. J. Craig suggested that valu-
able suggestions could be obtained from Ontario towns. ln Kingston, his homo, an Old Boys week had filled the town. He would glvo every assistance in his power to the Old Home project. Advertising literature should be placed in the hands of ticket agents abroad because enquiries are made of them by tourists. Many passengers want to 'comc on alhollday trip by one
