From ‘U10 work carried on, rnany valuable demons have been learned and much experience has been gain- ed, and from it one fact stands out clearly, that is that our Bureau has become an institution recognized not ~ (‘iur own people, but by the Pubiicitsumen throughout the whole North American Continent, as one readyiantfwllling to disseminate vfl- umbia information relative to all mat- ._ , fitters pertaining to the greater pub- licity.ei,_our Province» No better rec- ognitionpl this could be aiIol-ded us thlii ‘thbt selection oi ‘our President recentlyhtp the Presidency of the nfihbfganired Canadian Conven- tion and "I‘ourist Bureau of the Do- ieminion ‘oi Canada.

Advertising Last‘ year our Publicity Commit- tsa compiled a new folder, our Com- mittee felt that we could have a rc- Pfittt and flius use the same folder ior anotlfr season. Accordingly, wc I had thir lfivc thousand more print- ed, and. hese were given very wide distrib ion in Canada and the Unit- ed a . through the Railway and p Ofilces, the Maritime Pro- Convention Bureaux in Tc- and Montreal. and through the int Tourist Bureaux in Canada e United States. Thirty thous- f these folders have been dis- d.

A list o1 names‘ oi those Iflfistorins at the Canadian National Exhibition was kept in their ofrice and a copy forwarded to our oilioe, tisose inter- ested V in Tourist literature "were marked and in each case we wrote them a personal letter and sent them a copy of our folder and map. Other Advertising ‘rhrough the Toronto Ofiicc joint advertising was done by the Mari- time Provinces, in the! Toronto Globe. Mall 6r Empire, Saturday Night and Toronto New Outlook. A small allotment was made for radio advertising for the first time and through CFCY, the beauties of the Island were made known through the Maritime Provinces. Considering this was our first attempt and our allotment was very small, s great number oi enquiries were received, and we consider this a good medium for advertising. The circular letter schema was carried out again last year. A very attractive personal letter was cone- piled by our Publicity Committee and a copy sent to each memberioi the Maritime Provinces Club of Toronto and also Montreal. Tgn thousand oi the car owners of Nova Bcotia, each received a circular letter. ‘These met with excellent results. Many who vis- lted the Bureau from the neighbor- ing Province said it was duo to this letter that they visited our Province for the first tlme- The Bureau of Natural Resources. through Mr. Lynch at_Ottaws, prepszod a very attractive calendar for the summqr months, with a scene on the beach at Cavendish, dons very artistically. These were distributed to the sum- rner Hotels in Canada and the Unit- ed Btates. and were very favorably commented on and much appreciated by those who received them. Advertising was also done through the Tourist Bureau at saint Stephen. New Brunswick. Mr. E. G. Boer act- ed as our agent there, he has always done very efiectivc work. and given our literature wide distribution at this point. . At Yarmouth, Nova Bcotia, Mr. George Williams also distributed our literature and has given excellent service. A map and folder is placed in each ear coming to Yal-nlouth, and also those leavingl for Boston- During the season the Red Cross line made fortnightly trips to this Province from Montreal and w New- foundland. Literature and maps were placed on her each trip,‘ this is a splendid means oi advertising our Province. Several yachts paid us a visit dur- ing the past season and many of the passengers came to the Bureau seeking information of various kinds. and taking with them folders. maps. etc. All these means of advertising tend to make known the beauties of our Province. Ito-organisation or Motor League At our Annual Meeting last year, it was suggested that the Motor League be re-organized and that they share the office of the Publicity As- sociation. This was accordingly done, with the result that the Motor League has been oi inestimabio value in our work. The .two organizations working together has tended to strengthen our Association. They is- sued an up to date guide book and also sectional map, those wars given I out toftourists and much appreciat- ed by them. The year Just passed was the bus- iest ona we have ever had at the Bureau. Hundreds oi letters have been received and every enquiry from newspaper or otherwise is answered with a personal letter and a small raapand folder is always enclosed- Many letters dealing with at“; my. sites- bavingscan s, siualymakoknowrlthsbasuticsof-gn yet what are we doing with it? ’ lot oi our Province and hearing oi our possibilities. said they would our Province. .

Praises Island ' Courtesy I can cits‘ an instance (only one oi many) where a prominent man and his wife visited the Bureau from the United states, he was anxious to have a day's nailing and sec some of the Island. I was able to arrange with one oi our citizens to take him out fishing. He remained for sever- al days, alter his return he wrote the Bureau and sent the following clip- ping, which appealed in a promin- ent American Newspaper, he having told a friend of his trip here. The clipping read "Mr- and Mrs. Blank who passed three weeks oi the recent vacation season in touring Prince Edward Island and Nova Scotla ex- pressed themselves so charmed by the country and its inhabitants that they are desirous of repeating their tour. They encountered a very hoa- pitable people and iound s country that was literally "fiowing with milk and honey." They report no poverty in Prince Edward" Island and no pub- llo chutes." I-le also added to his letter "I navor received so many cour- tesies from strangers before and it truly makes your Province stand out in my memory. '1 have never seen so well farmed a country beiore and I think the people ought to be very proud oi their beautiful Island." This is only one instance, such letters as those are continually coming in the ofiice. but time and spaee will not permit me to cite any more. One can- not hear such compliments paid our Province without being thrilled and realizing that we must be "boosters" we have a. wonderful heritage and Our Association cc-opersted again with the Fish and Game Association in having fishing licenses issued. I found everyone willing to pay this small fee. Traffic The automobile trafiicto the Isi- and still continues to increase. In n23 when the Association was first formed the automobile traffic to the Island was e00 cars, last year by nor- den the total number of cars ior the tourist months was approximately 4.000 cars. and by the Hoclieisgs 000 cars came over, a total increase ol about 400 cars from the year before. Consider the revenue from these alone, and when we consider that our total expenditure is less than $6.000 we feel Justificd in making the claim that, we are engaged in one oi the most profitable industries in Prince Edward Island. ' Our summar hotels and boarding houses were filled and many new farm homes were opened up last year. this country life appeals to so many o! the-tourists who come here tired in mind and body and the lure of the quiet country life appeals to them as nothing also would. Each year secs the tide oi tourist travel growjlng- It has now become Cans- da’s second greatest industry, exceed- ed only by her wheat crop. this is the statement of the Dominion sta- tistician. Prom figures obtained we learn that in 1020 the expenditure o! tourists in Canada was 883,734,009 and in 1028 it had almost reached the three hundred million mark. The estimated Axpendituro of tourists by automobiles in Canada amounted to 810130400000 an increase of about 28%. 1r we have been successful in creating a desire to travel in Cana- dl. we in Prince Edward Island must work to let cur share. and we arc only scratching the surface.

Conventions In the month of Juno. tho Canad- ian Womenis Press Club hold its an- nual ccnvention. This was a wonder- ful means oi advertising our Island. The citizens of Charlottetown and Summersido cooperated with our As- sociation in making their visit in our Province very pleasant? several let- ters o1 appreciation have been ro- ceived from members of the party since their return to their diflerent homes. and many articles have ap! peared in the Press oi the different Provinces from time lo time". .
