VISITOR SURPRISED
NEW ZEALAND’S MARVELLOUS SCENERY.
“Wc were perfectly amazed to find such countries at this side of the world,” said Mr R. L. Brackett, of Oregan, a through-passenger by the Makura to San Francisco, after a tour of New Zealand and Australia. “New Zealand scenery, on the road down by Wairakei and Rotorua, is the most marvellous we have seen,” states The Dominion.
In America a great deal was being heard about New Zealand at present. The Dominion had been featured by the National Geographic Society in their magazines, which had a circulation of over a million copies. The very fine illustrated article on New Zealand dealing in particular with the wool production, had attracted universal interest. This was fine publicity, said Mr Brackett, and it was certain that a lot more folk would be coming over to see New Zealand. “We hear so much about it now, where we heard very little before,” said Mr Brackett.
