why do they come during the past tourist season can ada was the holiday ground for many thousands of american tourists they come from all portions of tho south ern republic and they come in such numbers that the influx resembled the gathering for a great convention why do they come because can ada has yet much of that which ap peals to the real man or woman na tural scenery and natural beauty that have not yet been despoiled by the hand of industry that have not lost their charm by the introduction of an artificiality deprecated by the lover of nature and the outofdoors canada has restful and nerverestoring con ditions of life that enable one to re turn to duty with the vacation objec tive accomplished namely renewed energy and a feeling that one has gain ed something in education for travel is education why do they come again this question has been answered times without number by our visitors they come again because they are made to feel welcome made to feel at home this welcome was very clearly stated recently byz w cannon manager of the glaciers to gulf motorway as sociation whose home is in san an tonio texas so you would like to know how canada has treated me said mr cannon well i have never been treated better by any people of any state or nation within three minutes after crossing the internation al border they had me feeling just as much at home as though i were down in some texas town great numbers of letters have been received by the department of the interior from tour ists who are not only satisfied but de lighted with their visit to canada and have expressed in no uncertain terms their intention to again spend their vacation in this coutry canadians are proverbially courte ous and this haa been fully recog nized by our visitors little wonder then that they will come again while the words of the dear old son there is no place like home are intensely true the- next best is where one is made to feel at home and canadians have that faculty in
