We can all give them a real welcome, when they come . . . make them want to return, year after year. WHAT CAN I DO? The answer is plenty! Here are some of the things anyone can do. The suggestions come from a well-known Ontario hotelman: 1. Know the places of interest and beauty spots in your district and tell people about them. 2. When you write your friends in the States tell them about the places they would enjoy visiting. 3. Try to make any visitor glad he came. 4. Take time to give requested informa­ tion fully and graciously. 5. In business dealings, remember Canada’s reputation for courtesy and fairness depends on you. 6. To sum it all up —follow the "Golden Rule. IT'S EVERYBODY? BUSINESS Worth his weight in gold! The province of Ontario profits to almost the same extent from tourist busi­ness as it does from the gold mining industry, It is Up to each of us to see that it goes on growing. This diagram shows how everyone benefits from the Ontario tourist income. Every dollar is shared in this way .* . . 1. Hotels; 2. Stores; 3. Restaurants; 4.Taxes, etc.; 5. Amuse­ ments; 6. Garages. It works both ways! They treat us royally when we visit them ... we can’t do less than return the compliment. Remember that it costs money to take a holiday . * . so let’s see they get a good return for every penny they spend.
