EDITORIAL
A
Talk
On
Advertising
The
business
that
does
not
advertise
dies.
It
cannot
continue.
All
business
men
recognize
this.
Where
they
differ
Is
In
their
method
of
advertising.
For
the
average
store
keeper
we
have
always
held
that
the
shop
window
Is
the
best
means
of
advertising.
The
person
who
does
not
keep
hi
windows
trimmed
Is
losing
his
very
best
opportunity
of
reaching
new
customers
and
new
customers
must
be
secured
If
the
business
is
to
continue.
Next
to
the
shop
window
comes
the
newspaper.
This
Is
not
only
our
opinion,
but
the
opinion
of
the
most
astute
business
men
in
the
world.
They
all
use
the
newspapers.
All
hare
heard
of
the
outcry
In
New
York
a
short
time
ago
when
the
newspapers
were
forced
by
striking
printers
to
suspend
publication,
or
Issue
only
min-ature
editions
which
could
not
handle
the
advertising.
Th
business
of
the
whole
city
was
affected.
People
look
to
the
newspapers
to
provide
them
with
the
news
of
the
stores
which
they
do
for
a
consideration.
Oo
Into
nine
out
of
ten
houses
and
you
find
that
the
woman
of
the
house
wishes
to
look
at
the
store
news.
Bhe
wishes
to
see
what
the
merchants
have
to
tell
her
about
their
special
offer
ings,
their
new
gJ6tfs,Jor'p6s,H
slbly
their
sales.
There
Is
a
general
demand
for
Information
and
the
mer
chant
who
docs
not
take
ad
vantage
of
the
opportunity
present
that
information
cannot
expect
to
succeed
unless
he
can
find
some
other
method
of
presenting
It
which
Is
equally
effective
and
cheap.
That
other
method
has
not
yet
been
found.
There
Is
yet
another
reason
why
business
people
should
advertise
and
that
Is
because
In
order
to
secure
the
services
of
a
good
newspaper
they
must
support
that
newspaper.
It
cannot
succeed
without
advertising.
The
city
without
a
good
newspaper
cannot
make
progress.
And
there
cannot
be
a
good
newspaper
without
advertising.
Nearly
every
business
person
comes
to
the
newspapers
at
some
time
In
the
course
of
his
existence
asking
for
help
for
some
cause
or
to
put
over
some
campaign.
And
the
curious
thing
Is
that
the
people
who
support
the
newspaper
least
are
the
ones
who
ask
for
the
most
favors.
Tills
newspaper
has
to
advertise
and
keep
eternally
at
it
Bo
docs
every
other
live
paper.
Unfortunately,
we
have
not
the
means
at
our
command
that
we
offer
to
the
merchant.
We
have
to
use
other
means.
We
are
constantly
displaying
ourselves
before
the
public,
otherwise
we
should
drop
back
into
the
second
class.
This
costs
us
a
lot
of
money,
but
we
do;lt
because
we
know
thai
(infi
advert,
tisers
will
not
be
satisfied
with
anything
less
than
the
best
By
giving
our
advetrlsers
very
close
to
100
coverage
of
the
city
and
district
we
make
ourselves
Indispensable
to
them.
They
give
us
their
support
and
by
doing
so
we
are
able
to
Improve
our
service
to
them
and
to
the
city.
It
Is
a
system
of

helpfulness.

Mayor
Speaks
Mayor
McMordie,
In
Introducing
the
speaker,
mentioned
that
the
Peace
outlet
was
of
vital
Interest
to
Prince
Rupert.
At
one
time
the
Peace
country
was
a
mythical
land,
but
during
the
past
five
years
Interest
in
It
had
become
Intense.
No
agricultural
district
had
been
so
much
discussed
as
it.
Their
problem
was
one
of
transportation.
They
had
shown
that
they
could
raise
the
best
grain
in
the
world
and
here
was
the
finest
harbor
In
the
world
and
he
believed
the
logical
port
for
that
country.
He
spoke
of
the
delegation
that
had
gone
to
the
Peace
and
the
good
work
they
had
done.
In
Mr.
Frederick
they
had
a
real
friend,
who
believed
Prince
Rupert
was
the
logical
port.
A
brief
speech
was
made
by
Mr.
Raymer
of
Vancouver,
who
spoke
of
having
been
Instrumental
in
securing
many
settlers
for

who
had

-At

afternoon
a

was
passed
urging

said
the
question
of

was
an
economic
one,
as
sev-
cral
ministers
in
his
time
had
found
out.
They
were

there
was
an
enormous
demand
for

which
had
attracted
the

and
as

Canada
had
not

position.
