his end about successfully the

advertising expense and he lot of labor
self and his clerks thru decreased business volume
he doesn't decrease his rent taxes insurance and clerk
hire and the goods he does sell in quantity
to heavier proportionate load which the ultim
ate consumer has to pay The fellow who to tell
that he sell you goods cheap because does
not advertise is handing you fairy taIe-hes either
not telling you the truth he what his
business ought to be what his profit ought be.
Either kind of merchant is a dangerous one to
deal with because in nine of ten he'll "stick"
you.
Look any standard advertised article on the mar
ket today which the price has made familiar to
the public and you'll find it selling the price
now that it three ago the advance price
is small compared with unadvertsed products
of it's class.
Look also the non-advertised lines and find out
what three years of war advances has to them.
Is advertising tax the consumer or is it a
pledge of good faith the part of the business man to
treat his customers the square.

with the railways and governments
which will be involved in the project
will be opened in the near future.
Increased transportation to the west
ward without running the risk of SUBJ
marines sinking ships, and assistance
in the war for Russian with munitions
and food will result if the proposed
connection is established.
The plan provides for a standard
railway line connecting United States
roads through British Columbia and

Large ferries would carry freight
and passenger cars across the 5G-mile-
