IF ever you are walking down George Street, Dunedin, and are passed by what appears to be a cross between a whirlwind and a flash of lightning, you will know that you have seen Arthur Barnett, a man who believes m a brighter Dunedin. For many years, Arthur Barnett, Ltd., has been regarded as an extremely modern drapery business. Arthur has set aside aJI those dour, Scotch traditions of business upon which Dunedin's biggest concerns are built. Yet he makes no alterations until he is sure they are more profitable or efficient. Dapper and prosperous-looking, Barnett stands up very well to the strain of making money. Unlike 1 American business men, he does not regard business as a great, wonderful game. On the contrary, he works seriously and plays joyfully.
