TOURIST'S IMPRESSIONS
PUBLICITY SYSTEM FAULTS [by Tf.I.KOHAI'H —OWN COnHKSPONnKNT] CHHISTCHURCH, Wednesday Although she.is full of praise for what she has seen of New Zealand, Miss lOdith A. Kraeft, of Chicago University, maintains that New Zealand tourist publicity material featured the wrong tilings, and also put too much stress on the smallncss of the country. "From it, we Americans get the idea that we can come over here and see it all at once," she said. "When we do come, we find that the time allowed us makes it necessary to leave out many of the most interesting places. "Then you feature the wrong thijigi. At tlie moment the best illustration I cap,think of is the Buller Gorge, because J am particularly sore about, that. 1 had been led to expect so much, and yet everything to tlie south of it is most interesting. 1 want to snv how much I appreciate the hospitality 1 have met everywhere in New Zealand. It has been really remarkably."
