They are the ones who do not realize the importance of ADVERTISING. ADVERTISING IN THE STATESMAN is a class of news demanded by the public, because it telis them where to find what they want. ADVERTISING IN THE STATESMAN is educational because it brings new necessities and luxuries beforie the public in a way that proves to them that they need the articles or ser- vice offered. Non-Advertisers, as well as occasional advertisers who confine their advertising to bis only, should stop and think about using the advertising columns of THE STATESMAN. It should receive theiji most serious attention. Lack of REAL ADVER- TISJNG causes a slump in business. NEWSPAPER ADVERTISING inakes better business. STATESMAN ADVERTISING 15 THE BEST AND MOST EFFECTIVE WAY 0F REACHING THE MOST PEOPLE 0F THIS COMMUNITY AT THE LEAST COST. It Pays to Advertise in The Statesman because it produces resuits if the goods are priced right and the article advertised is seasonable. ze Winners zations and Examination ed at Commencement liis Week man Margaret, Williams Donald, Wilson Leonai'd. 3 Subjects-Adams Nora, Aider Elleen, Bagneli Winton, Booth Maurice, Brown Hilda, Cahlacott Doris, Coiville Aleck, Courtice Doug- las, Cryderman Mervin, Edger Dora- thy, Flaxman Gordon, Hayman Ruth, Hendersoli Ethel, Hadgsan Nina, Jewell Mary, Jones Madeline, Kellar Bertha, Knox Helen.
