SNOW NOT AN ASSET.

In The Outlook, copies of which We're

advertisement on Hawaii which was
inserted by order of the Promotion

ton to Snowy Slopes" stating that
the word should have been Sunny"

made by the lew York engravers.
Snowy Slopes" is copy and is per-
f-ctly correct. The tourist needs but to
take a journey to Hawaii to see all
manner of Snowy Slopes. Bulletin.
Snowy Slopes" is not copy according
to Allan Dunn, who drew the picture
and text. In the smaller blocks one
of which appears in the Saturday Eve
ming Post, copy was followed. There
the phrase appears as quoted in the
Sunday Advertiser, Sunny Shores and
Sunny Slopes"
on mountain peaks 200 miles from Ho-
nolulu but it is not accessible to tour
lists and the winter visitors we are
seeking would not go to it if it was.
They are people who are flying from
the frost and snow, not seeking them,
and who come here to find summer in
the winter season. Snow repels them
and as snow is not amongst our trop
ical attractions, it is absurd to lay
claim to it. BY doing so we merely
scare people away.
June in January" is our best hold
in magazine advertising, not January

be so worded as 10 leave a loopholc in the

ranged to begin Immediately the setting
