As the final month of ourlfirst &entury

We pause and reflect---A

draws to a close----e

WVlE look back over the years and feel a sense of respect for the Holman' Tradition, which is linked so closely to that of our 1 Prince Edward Island. We reflect on the wisdom and -diligence of our founder and his successors, who shepherded the steady growth of the firm through years of depression, as well as, through years of abundance . . . . ' we pause and pay tribute to these men of faith, wisdom and spirit. EV E pause and pay tribute to all of our fellow workers . V. . it is only through them that we have been able to help fulfill the needs, desires and . comforts of our customers for the pa st one hundred years. It has given us a sense of joy and satisfaction to have been able to be of service to you. E are grateful for the friendship, support and confidence vested in us by you, our customers . . . we fully realize that were it not for this wholehearted friendship, supportand

confidence, Holman's could not have grown from a

very small, modest beginning into the Nationally recogniz- ed organization that it is today. look forward to the future with faith and assurance, with cl solemn determination to -continue the Holman tradition. We know that only by giving the people of Prince

Edward Island honest, loyal and sincere service, will the

success of our Second Century be a certainty. '
