Introductory

The publishers feel pleased in presenting the sixth edition of the
Prince Rupert and Stewart Directories, and by comparing the directory
with the edition of 1914, one can readily see that the city has made steady
strides in its growth, as well as in the number and variety of its in-
dustries.

The information for Prince Rupert and Stewart has been secured
by men carefully trained in this work. Every effort has been made to
avoid errors and omissions. Names, initials, occupations and other data
have been thoroughly verified.

Particular attention is directed to the advertisements containing the
business cards of the progressive business men of the city. The Classi-
fied Directory, or “Buyer’s Guide,” is a section that should prove
valuable to those using the directory as it gives an index of those en-
gaged in each profession and line of business in the territory served by

the directory.

The publishers believe that to the citizens of Prince Rupert and
Stewart, as well as to ourselves, this edition of the Prince Rupert and
Stewart Directory represents a source of pride.

We extend our thanks to the business men and residents for their
uniform courtesy to our solicitors in quest for information, and to the
merchants for their generous advertising patronage, which we trust is
well deserved and will prove a good investment.
