The Goderich Signal-Star, 1964-03-19, Page 11No Japanese bottoms forme, , By Crackey • .Remember nember tfie last newcomer who came to town and. aslce4, "WhY does, Grand' Bend have all the Waists and Goderich none?" One quick reply I sometimes use Is, Liquor. Bit that's not really the whole of it. Goderich does have tourists in the punnaier.

Without much hollering or pub- licity he gets 22,000 a ° season, It seems, only natural you can depend. on all 22,900 leaving some money In Goderich--even if it's, just the 35 oen.ts entrance fee they. pay Mr. Neill'.

After stewing about it for a couple of weeks and doing a small amount of digging I. decided to 'write a column and see whatwould result. I know' right well there are lots of history buffs in ',this town. But I'm suggesting that we put "our ancestors to work, either as the foundation for a distinctive design that could be 2mbroidered ••.or patterned, or a simple object, or a complex One,. that . could be manufactur- ed here, or handcrafted.

Tourists•Will Pay "Many tourists are willing. to Pay much higher prices 11 the article they receive is really worth' the money." And, he goes on for three pages .&' scussirig optimistically the local souvenir business. That's the end of my research. I'll' suggest the Benmilier blankets, but then Goderich isn't Benmiljer. Goderich does sell" great quantities of therm every year, as many as we can get. The Eskimos have Ookpik, the funny, -looking owl•^"-ttf: stole the Philadelphia trade show for Canada late last year.
