     49 years ago on May 1st, 1881 
     
     a small shop was opening its 
     
     doors to the public of Charlotte- 
     
     town by the late Mr. L. E. 
     
     Prowse. 
     
    

    
     This small shop has grown 
     
     into one of the largest and is. 
     
     now beyond a doubt the Econ- 
     
     omy Centre of this Province. ' 
     
    

    
     Not many firms have to their 
     
     credit such a record of success, 
     
    
   
   
    
      and this success is due to an un- 
     
     ' failing faith, a desire to serve 
     
    
   
   
    
     and a clever foresight into the 
     
     future -- qualities which were 
     
     manifest in the late founder of 
     
     the Business and still to be 
     
     found enhanced and stronger i!
