DUNEDIN’S PROSPERITY. THE FISHING VILLAGE’S BACKBONE. There is no doubt the Exhibition has opened the eyes of more than one* and so successful a one was envisaged by few New Zealanders. Its striking success has completely silenced all scoffers. However, now that the great show is drawing to its close, having well done its work, it shows Dunedin’s backbone and ability to see a thing through. Such has been the record of Dunedin business. Take a line through the successful houses of New Zealand to-day and trace their origin. Dunedin in most cases, both in money and men. Businesses built up on the square deal policy. It pays you to support your local industries, thus providing employment for labour and capital. The furniture trade offers an example in the business of WILLIAM NEES & SONS (LIMITED), where, since this firm offered their product direct to the public from the factory, constant additions have been necessary. The latest three-storey building, as an extension of the warehouse, is now almost completed.—Advt.
