‘I The First Store

It is interesting to trace the his- tory of this firm, which was found- ed by the late Robert Tlnson Holman.

His first store was on the north aids of Water Street, Summerside, about where James A. MacNeill 8a sons’ present business stand is lo- cated- It was a small building, be- ing about 15 x 20 feet. The stock

.was limited, being purchased on borrowed capital. The proprietor was physically sinall but great in

Kept on Growing

seizing the tide at its flood, and kept expanding and moving into a larger premises, which was stocked with a great variety of goods.

» At this timehe must have grasp- ed the possibilities of the business which he had made his life's work. for his ambition seems to have been stimulated and his desire to be a leader was aroused.

Following out his well laid plans, e few years later he built what was ahthat time considered to be a marvellous store. In fact, it was the largest in the world for a town with the population of Summerside.

Even judged by todays standards it was a. modern store, with large windows, wide aisles, and excellent display space.

Large arched open spaces con- nected the dry goods with the gro- oery, hardware, crockery and furni-

Milestones on the Boat! to Progress

About the year 1909 the firm in- itiated a. mail order business and’ sent out a large number of cats-l logues. Since then they have‘ changed their policy, dlscontinuedl the catalogues, and doubled the ex- penditure on newspaper advertising. They state their sales have greatly increased, thanks to the power of the press.

Another event in the history of Holmans was the opening up of a branchstnre in Charlottetown in 1923.

In the following yeai- the firm bought out Beer d; Weeks and es- tablished their present business on the north side of Grafton Street.

At this branch, which is in charge of Mr. Robert T. Holman, grandson of the founder, furniture, crockery. wall paper, stoves, furnaces and many other lines are sold.

Under capable management this branch has steadily grown, floor af- ter floor being added until now it has 20,000 square feet of floor space. It is one of the most modern fumi- ture stores in all Canada and ls really one of the show places in the mercantile field in the Mari- tlmes. The firm also possesses a four story brick warehouse on Wat- er Street. .

This year the firm opened an- other branch tt Montague.

The policy adopted by the found- er of the firm in fully satisfying customers has been maintained through the years both in the Sum- merside and Charlottetown stores andls being continued at Monta- gue.

The magnificent growth of the business in a province the size of Prince Edward Island fully testifies to, the successful working of this policy.

The firm has retained the loyalty and confidence of its customers, year after year, not only in Sum- merside and» Prince - County, but other parts of the Maritimes, and in fact across Canada. Their goods have even been sold as far uorth as the Yukon.

must Holmanh are strong be- lievers in newspaper advertising they realize too that a. ‘ -‘

- 01.15- lomcr is also a good advertisement l and by their reputation for square dealing, for giving full value for the money. for courteous and efficient service they have been able not only to retain their old customers but, to steadily increase the number of iww ones.

Confidence in the Province

One lesson to be learned from the success of Holmans is that it pays to have confidence in the re- sources and potentialities of our own province. .

Without this faith and confidence the firm would not have grown to theproportlons it has reached to-

. notable achievement.

| the l-lolmans the high standing in

traditions and their army of cus- tomers will tender them the hearty cong-ratulatons due- them on the roundng out of another year of The training which they, and the heads of many of the departments received, from the late Robert T, Holman, has been of inestimable vlaue.

This training plus natural capac- ity, has materially helped to give

the world of commerce which they occupy today.

Prince Edward Island is certainly fortunate in having within its bor- ders such an establishment, even‘ from the standpoint alone of fur- nishing employment, especially at the present time-there being a staff of 150 persons, the majority of these married men with famillm.

Busy men as they are, the Hol- man brothers find time to give gen- erously of their time and talent to many measures tending toadvance the best interests of the people and in various philanthropic and _.clvic

activities they tfle a; prominent part.

Th celebrated actor, George Arliss, is stoning 1n a notable pic- ture entitled, “The House of Roths- child".

Not long ago one or the leading Unltedfltatcs periodicals had a most interesting serial dealing with the "House of Van Horny’. In both these productions the wonderful in- fluencé ‘of tradition in respect to the carrying on of gteatbusinesses is strongly stressed.

‘ ‘In Prince Edward Island we have the House of Holman. v The story of thathouse makes indeed interesting reading. The third generation is now represented in its management, and the best traditions of its founder are cer- tainly being observed. ~

That the firm may continue to grow and prosper 1s the sincere wish of all interested in the wel- fare of this little province by the sea. ~

- Before his brother had been con-

ctcd he had searched for the pelts. His brother had told him that he had not stolen the pelts. After Berrigan had given evidence at the trial, witness went up to Berrigan‘: store to find out what information he could about the case. Berrigan had told him he knew nothing about the ‘matter, that he knew nothingaboui; the Dawson foxes. Berrigan had made three trips to steal foxes, but on each trip the oar broke down. 1-Ie had told arltness that Elmer Sharbell had done him out of $1,000 on a potato deal.

Witness had recovered the stolen pelts. and had told the authorities where they were. His brother had told him where they were.

The witness denied that he had hidden the pelts.

Witness could not say how long the pelts had been ut Rocky Point.

Berrigan had talked to witness about Bharbell, and was sore at Sharbell for getting ahead of him in a business deal.

His brother had mentioned that Gallant and Fred were with him on one trip. His brother had been charged before with breaking and‘ entering, but had not been convict- ed. Wltness stated he had been thinking that there had been others with his brother when he broke into the ranch.

Berrigan admitted to the witness that he had started out with Fred three times to steal foxes from Bharbelrs ranch. Louis Berrigan often made remarks about Shad-bell getting ahead of him on a potato deal." ‘

Willard MacDonald, Bunbury, stated that he ran a gas station and rented out cars. He had left cars at different, places for Berri- gim and Gallant. 'I‘hs former had asked for the car. The first time was Nov. l, when a Ford coach had been rented. the second time on Nov. 15, when the same car had been rented. Barbour rented one in between. On the first occasion the car was back on the morning fol- lowing. On the last occasion the car had been left in a garage up in Bedeque, and witness towed it back to town. A couple of days after- wards 1n Prowsek garage he and Cpl. Cordwell had found two sticks under the seat. The car bore a New Brunswick number.

On cross examination, witness elated that Berrigan did not possess a license. and had got Mr. Gallant to drive. On the first occasion Ber- rlgan had made no complaint about the car. He had heard no complaint as to the coupe which Barbour had rented out- On the third occasion Bcrrigan had phoned him to say that the car was in a garage at Bedeque-

Joseph J. Arsensult, farmer, Ab- tom's Village, testified that. one night lut. November there had been a knock at his door, and a man

requested help in getting his car out of a snowbank. The witness had helped them out. There had been two other men in the ear. Witness had directed them to the western road. Witness thought that the man in the left side of the box (Gallnnti was the msn who came to his house. The men had told him they were going up west. The car was a coupe. ills place was 30 miles from Poi-mgr.
