Of Interest Only to Oar Advertisers To-day we draw up a new Full- UMr Page Roll of Honor. Our 1923 Roll was a long one. Dur- ing the year dozens of our most prom- inent and successful merchants pub- lished Full-Page Ads. These adver- tisements have made them more prominent and successful. We are glad to know that we are having our part in the growth of the North Shore communities. The 1924 Roll will be a longer one. Increase in population, enterprise, and civic spirit will make it necessary for more business institutions to tell their messages in more attractive, more commanding form.
