OVER 100 EMPLOYEES

ONE OF DUNEDIN'S MOST IMPORTANT INDUSTRIES Some indication of the development that has taken place in our secondary industries here in Dunedin is obtained fiynn the fact that M‘Leod Bros. Ltd. have a pay-roll exceeding one hundred employees. These employees are continuously engaged, receive regular wages, and their earnings add considerably to the spending power of the community. The butcher, the baker, the grocer, the draper—all sections benefit from the money that such a large'number earn and distribute regularly each week. It goes without saying that a firm which has made such substantial progress as M'Lcod Bros. Ltd. must manufacture goods of a high order of merit. This, indeed, is the secret of the firm’s success. In Laundrine, Victory, and Karbol, M'Leod Bros. Ltd. produce soaps which, for quality and value, are outstanding. Large quantities are sold throughout the whole of New Zealand, and housewives have come to regard them as tho standard of excellence. In the manufacture of toilet soaps M'Leod Bros. Ltd. have been no less successful, their Pure Castile, Magnet Bath, Magnet Barilla, Fortuna, and other brands being in great demand by householders from Auckland to Bluff. The exquisite fragrance of these soaps, their purity and quality, together with their real value, have made them very popular with retailers as well as consumers. Undoubtedly M'Leod Bros. Ltd. have established an industry that plays an important part in tho economic welfare of New Zealand, and as such it is one that deserves all the encouragement we

nan extend to it. V
