great reat burden of or cost upon the organizations having that work vork In hand There Thoro will be hundreds of or thousands of ot tourists pass through h this city next next year rear and because of or the great fame ame o of or Salt Sail Lake as an entertainment elt city a great number of or these will be bo guests in inthe inthe the ho dt city for or different nt perIo periods s of or time How How long will thc they stay That t is up to S Stilt Salt lt Lako Lake City If It you Ou receive them ln In n. n a way that will convince them tho they are arc welcome to the best you ha have havo vo the they will stay several se days just days Just as long as the they can ron On the other hand If It their re reception reception reception re- re is cold and the they aro are compelled to shift shirt for tor themselves ics they will hurry away to o a warmer welcome elsewhere Makes Suggestions Several methods have been found eminently emi ml- ml successful and not too expensive For Tor example when a special train of or tourIsts tour- tour comes loaded with members of some organization or with Ith some great greal tourist party meet them at the passenger station station sta sta- tion Uon with a brass band There s should be bea a welcoming committee In distinctive white while uniforms to give them the tho glad hand land The Tho members of or this committee should be fortified with folders and booklets showing what hotels are recommended by bythe bythe the he committee on entertainment of or your our Commercial club stating th the rates and accommodations and the location and easiest way to reach each Individual hotel hotel hotel ho ho- tel on that list There should be a similar similar simi simi- lar list of or restaurants with an nn Index to Indicate Indica to their scales of ot prices and their accommodations Then there thero should be schedules and Itineraries for tor the tourist with two hours three hours live five hours one day two da days s 's and three days' days time at his disposal al with complete lists of or prices that he ma may know enow Just how much his entertainment will cost him All these things go 10 to prove to tho the tourist that ho he is welcome in your city city city- that you OU want him to sta stay Just as long longas as he can can and and he Is going to sta stay tay when these thele attentions are shown him Now what will it cost What hat is tho the cost of or n. n brass band of ot M say sixteen or eighteen pieces for tor an hour bour or two as compared with tho the money tourists will leave eave In your elt city if tr b by the service of that band and that little courtesy will Induce them to remain In the city one full ull day of ot twenty four hours or perhaps two days It Is easy to figure how ho Salt Lake can make mone money that wa way Reception Committee And your pour reception committee and guides ulde L Let t the Commercial club the Manufacturers Manufacturers' association and similar organizations detail certain of or their members members mem mem- bers to this duty at certain depots for certain hours They Thoy will furnish their own white uniforms and donate their time It f If they they- love their city Your Commercial Commer Commer- cial club has a membership of ot nearly 2000 It would not be necessary to call callon callon callon on the the same members all the time There Thero should bo be a moving picture show depleting depicting the wonderful beauties of your our city and of or tho the points of or interest to o which the tourist would go if he had ho tho time This should hould show your capitol capitol capi- capi tol your city and county building your our principal thoroughfares your our finest buildIngs build build- logs Ings and your our pleasure resorts in full swing Such Such a n show shw should be maintained tree free ree of of or charge at each of or your through railroad stations admissions to be b by showing the railroad ticket That would keep out the lo loafers fers though I have seen few rew of or that class here The Worlds World's Fair Fait company compan will t take from the tho Eastern cities dozens of or special special epe- epe cial cial- trains loaded
