HOUSE PASSES BILL :
TO ADVERTISE. LAKE ..
RESORTS OF STATE
Expected That Appropriation
for Carrying on Campaign
Will Be Provided.

Senator P. II. McGarry's bill, for
the advertising Of Minnesotas lake
resorts has been approved by the
legislature and it Is expected that an
appropriation for carrying on the
publicity campaign which will bring
thousands Of tourists to the state Will
be included in the omnibus bill.
The bill brought on warm de-
bate among the legislators, opponents
Of tho measure accused those advo-
eating it of fishing for suckers, and
the friends of the bill rctorted that
the opponents were "tightWads. v
These were the mildest epithets
used.
THE dominion OF Canada has ap-
propriated s5,0O0.000 for advirtising
purposes since the war" said Rep
resentative Daniel de Lury Of Walk
er. "The railroads up there are now
handling their increased passenger
traffic in double sections as result
Of that campaign. If we don't wake
up. it will be Canada that will annex
the United States instead OF the re-
verse;"
Representative J. F. McPartlin de-
clared that mail order concerns had
taken hundreds Of thousands Of dol.
lars from Minnesota by advertising,
while the local merchants who did
not advertise suffered 1t would be
the same with the state. 1--WE have
the finest summer resorts in the coun-
try, but they will do us little good
financially unless we advertise
hap - hn cold ''Thn tourist has
been going to the west. passing
through this state on his way. while
right here are attractions superior to
any that the states either east or
west have to offer. But how can the
world know Of these attractions un-
less we advertise them? 1t is about
time to forget our tightwad. ideas
and become boosters"
