The meeting began with a
tour of the museum facilities
and galleries. Then the
director-curator, Robert
Tremain outlined the role of
the museum in the com-
, munity, from both the
historical and promotional
aspects.
Guest speaker for the

Ministry of Industry
Tourism consultant,
audio-visual program
shown to support
ministry’s “we treat
Royally” project, aimed at
improving the attitudes and
hospitality of those who work
, in the tourist industry.
This project is now en
tering its second year, and
Crocker claimed that it has
enjoyed widespread results.
He noted that, although
actual change of attitude is
difficult to measure, some
indication of the project’s
success is evident in the fact
that one in four persons in a
survey sample had at least
heard of the “we treat you
royally” slogan.
The business represen
tatives present were en
couraged to give exchange
on the American dollar
within a percent or two of the
official rate. Businesses not
offering such a rate of ex
change to their customers
will not be allowed to display
or use the free “we treat you
royally” promotional
materials.
