These films are to be educative, illustrate-specially the natural re. sources, and economic and industrial problems t- British Columbia. Pictures dealing with genera Canadian events will also be prepared. This goes step farther than the Eastern Provinces have gone i1, making use of the movies for advertising. The Hears lGovernment established a bureau which has ha taken many fine films of industrial and scenic chai acter. The Dominion Government created a movir. picture bureau which has had pictures taken I national industries, "for exhibition in Britain an? other sources of immigration. But no province h: compelled the theatre interests to exhibit the film.- As a rulethe attractive nessof the pictures has induce- theatre managers voluntarily to present them, sand wiched in between regular films. Provincial and Do minion and municipal governments could make muc‘ better advertising use of moving pictures than the; do, but what is (lone, to be effective, must be attrac tive.” '1 British Coluinbia’s example might very profit ably be followed in other cities and we have no dout Mr. Gallagher would do a simliar work for this cit; - if the films were provided. Excellent advertising fol the province could be furnished in this way. Visitors in the city invariably visit the theatre and ‘no greatei publicity could be given the scenic attractions of the province than a well staged film. If the merchants and hotels, who Wlltlltl be the chief beneficiaric would co-operate in this they would find it very pro . ﬂtable advertising.
