Advertisers also tell us and will tell you that results obtained from publicity carried in the columns of this paper have exceeded by far those obtained through any other newspaper published in Prince Rupert The successful business man today is the one who advertises judiciously, who chcoses the medium most generally read by citizens of a community; a business man who does not look upon an expenditure for advertising as an expense, but, on the con- trary, as an investment. This type of business man you will generally find in the front ranks of his profession, turning his dollars daily and moving his goods rapidly—and all through the liberal use of newspaper publicity. Try advertising as an investment, if only for a short time, and watch your business grow.
