Another search of the St. Mary River has yielded no results in the continuing effort to lo-cate 23-year-old Alex Brown, who went miss-ing in the river on Satur-day, July 5.

“Another search was conducted on Saturday but unfortunately there is still nothing — no in-dication of where he might be,” said Kimber-ley RCMP Cpl. Chris Newel. “We will contin-ue to search, but not on as large a scale, as re-sources become avail-able.”

Newel said the river would be monitored and checked as river levels change, as that is most likely when a clue would be found.

“If you recall the Findlay Creek incident last year when the two young men went into the river in their truck, it was once the water re-ceded that we were able to find one of the young lads. If it hadn’t been for the water going down, it is doubtful we would have found him. As it was, if we hadn’t had a dog up there, it’s doubt-ful we would have seen him.”

Newel says he knows the uncertainty is hard on the family.

“I know it’s tough for the family. We would like to bring closure as well. We would like to bring that to the family but unfortunately it hasn’t happened yet.”

The search has been ongoing since July 5, with search and rescue teams from across the region taking part and Kimberley Search and Rescue taking com-mand. Crews stood down late last week to rest and then mounted another effort this past weekend.

Cranbrook school students are supporting a school in Nepal, so far this year raising almost $3,000.

Gordon Terrace Ele-mentary in Cranbrook is fundraising to support a school with the same name in Nepal.

Since Christmas, the Cranbrook staff, stu-dents and parents have raised $2,981.50, mean-ing the school has raised more than $18,000 in the past three years for the Nepalese school.

David Stock of the Canadian Friends of Nepal said the Cran-brook donations have made it possible for the Nepalese school to build and equip a three-room, hot pink school for three to five-year-old children, which became opera-tional last September.

Gordon Terrace stu-dents have been fund-raising for the Nepalese

school since September 2011, when Grade 5 stu-dents saw a video of a school in Nepal where the children have a 45-minute walk to class and their classroom doesn’t even have a floor.

The Cranbrook kids began selling ice cream sandwiches and collect-ing Canadian Tire money for the cause, and the fundraising efforts grew from there. It prompted the Nepalese school to name its new building after the Cran-brook school.

For information about the Canadian Friends of Nepal, call David Stock at 250-426-6120.

CAROLYN GRANTDaily Bulletin

High temperature re-cords were set across B.C. this past weekend and are forecast to soar back to the mid-thirties by Wednesday, after a welcome bit of cloud cover to begin the week.

While most enjoy the hot summer weather, it can negatively affect your health if you are not mindful of it. Interior

Health warns that heat related illnesses can be avoided if you recognize that your body is gaining heat faster than it can cool itself down.

“When your body temperature rises, heat is released through in-creased sweating and blood flow to the skin,” says information provid-ed by Interior Health. “This allows your body to cool and return to its

normal temperature. Heat-related illness oc-curs when your body is unable to properly cool itself in hot outdoor or indoor environments, or during intense physical activity. This occurs in extremely hot environ-ments or in cases of overexposure to heat.”

Too much activity under the hot sun, or in-side a hot building, can lead to heat-related ill-

ness. Risks are com-pounded by not taking on enough water and/or drinking too many alco-holic beverages — something to think

about as JulyFest ap-proaches.

Kimberley Chamber Manager Mike Guarnery said last week that there would be plenty of water

available at the bocce pits this weekend. July-Festers are advised to make sure to keep drink-ing water between other refreshments this week-

end. Symptoms of heat-re-

lated illness, from mild to severe, include pale, cool, moist skin; heavy sweating; muscle cramps; rash; swelling, especially hands and feet; fatigue and weak-ness; dizziness and/or fainting; headache; nau-sea and/or vomiting; fever, particularly a core body temperature of 40°C (104°F) or more; confusion and de-creased mental alert-ness; hallucinations; red, hot, dry skin (in the late stages of heat stroke); seizures; and unconsciousness/coma.

Heat-related illness can effect healthy indi-viduals who are doing a lot of physical work in hot conditions, but par-ticularly susceptible are the very young and the elderly.

At above 30 degrees Celsius, fans alone may not be enough to pre-vent mild heat exhaus-tion. A cool shower or bath can help if your home is not air-condi-tioned. And remember — lots of water. Drink even before you feel thirsty.

Plan outdoor activi-ties before 11 a.m. and after 4 p.m. If you are outside during the heat of the day, take plenty of breaks in the shade.

As the mercury creeps higher, people are at more risk of heat exhaustion.

Miller has directed 10 plays — his latest, “Halo”, opens CCT’s season this October.

In 2005, CCT lifetime member and past board president Bud Abbott re-ceived the Hamber Award.

Eric Hamber was B.C.’s 15th Lieutenant Governor (1936-1944) and Chancellor of the University of British Co-lumbia.

Since 1932, Theatre BC has served as the parent association for community theatres across the province. Each July, the Mainstage Theatre Festival features winning community theatre productions from the 10 provincial Zone Festivals.

opinion/features

Mahmoud Abbas, the president of the Palestinian Authority, said something cryptic last Friday,

shortly after the Israelis began their latest round of attacks on the Gaza Strip. Con-demning Hamas’s conditions for accepting a ceasefire as “exaggerated and unnecessary,” he of-fered his condolences “to the families of the martyrs in Gaza who are fuel to those who trade in war. I oppose these traders, on both sides.”

What could he mean by that? Surely he was not suggesting that Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu of Israel and the leaders of Hamas, the Isla-mist organisation that has effective control of the Gaza Strip, have a common interest in perpetuating the current bloodbath for at least a little while longer.

Yes, he was suggesting exactly that, and he was quite right. This is the third “Gaza War” since late 2008 — they come around more often than World Cups in football — and each one has followed the same pat-tern. Some Israelis are kidnapped and/or killed, Israel makes mass arrests of Hamas cadres in the West Bank and launches air and missile strikes on the Gaza Strip, Hamas lets the missiles fly, and away we go again.

So why would Prime Minister Netanya-hu be willing to launch Israel’s third war against the Gaza Strip in eight years? Be-cause the nature of his political alliances

with other parties on the Israeli right, and especially with the settler lobby, means that he could not make a peace deal that the Palestinians would accept even if he wanted to (which he probably doesn’t).

That’s why he was instrumental in sab-otaging the Oslo Accords, the theoretical basis for a peaceful “two-state solu-tion” to the Israeli-Palestin-ian conflict, during his first term as prime minister in 1996-99. Back in power in the past five years, his pri-mary excuse for not moving

on negotiations has been that Mahmoud Abbas could not deliver peace because he controlled only the West Bank, while the intransigent Hamas ruled the Gaza Strip.

Netanyahu knows, on the evidence of the previous two wars, that Hamas can be battered into temporary quiescence but not destroyed. He also probably realises that if he did manage to destroy Hamas, its place would be taken by a less corrupt and much more extreme Islamist outfit that might really hurt Israel. He is just doing this, with no expectation of victory, be-cause Israeli public opinion demands it.

Hamas’s motive for wanting a little war are more obvious and urgent: it has lost almost all its sources of funding. Iran stopped funding its budget to the tune of $20 million per month when Hamas sided with the Sunni rebels in the Syrian civil war.

Egypt stopped helping it after last year’s

military coup against Mohamed Morsi’s Muslim Brotherhood government, and closed the tunnels under the border through which the Gaza Strip received most of its imported goods. Those imports were Hamas’s main source of tax revenue. Hamas is broke, and if it stays broke its control over the Strip will weaken.

Whereas a war with Israel will rally the local Palestinians to its support, and if enough of them are killed Egypt and the Gulf states may feel compelled to give Hamas financial aid. So the only real ques-tion is how many dead Palestinians will satisfy both Netanyahu’s need to look tough and Hamas’s need to rebuild popu-lar support at home and get financial help from abroad.

On past performance, the magic num-ber is between a hundred and a thousand dead: around 1,200 Palestinians were killed in the 2008-9 war, and 174 in 2012. After that – assuming that only a handful of Israelis have been killed, which is guaran-teed by the fact that Israeli air and missiles strikes are a hundred times more efficient at killing than Hamas’s pathetic rockets – a ceasefire becomes possible.

We have already crossed the lower threshold of that range of Palestinian deaths in the current mini-war, so a cease-fire is theoretically possible now, but both sides will probably press on for at least another few days. Then the ceasefire will be agreed, and both sides will start think-ing about the next round, only a few years from now. But the dead will stay dead.

An extremely cynical third Gaza War

The reading log is a fun way to keep track of their read-ing over the summer, and get-ting stickers to mark their prog-ress is really exciting. Anyone who completes a whole read-ing log by the end of the sum-mer will get a certificate and a Funny Business medal.

Bernadette McDonald’s ‘Okanagan Slow Road’ is a bril-liantly illustrated compilation of the best of the region’s food, drink, and recreation.

Kate Riggs explores the be-haviour of a variety of animals for younger readers in her new books ‘Whales,’ ‘Tortoises,’ and ‘Woodpeckers.’

Toddlers are also invited to join the Summer Reading Club. Each toddler receives a special reading log, and when guard-ians, relatives, or babysitters read a book to them, they can fill in a line on their log. They will receive a sticker and stamp for every seven lines that are filled in.

We also have a group story time for toddlers this summer every Friday at 11 a.m.

Those over 18 needn’t feel left out, as we have an Adult Reading Club as well. Stop by the library to sign up and re-ceive a reading log and a bingo

card. Complete any five squares on the Free Form Bingo card and enter into an awesome prize draw. Com-plete the card and get a prize. Get another card and continu-ing earning draw entries and prizes.

Join us August 23 from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. for the Adult Summer Reading Club Ceremonies for more prizes, snacks, and fun! Books must have been read be-tween July 1 and August 22 to win draw entries and prizes.

This is turning out to be one the best Summer Reading Clubs yet — so come join the library for an awesome sum-mer filled with great books, ac-tivities, prizes and fun!

On display this month is a collection of historic yearbook photos from Cranbrook schools of old (i.e. Parkland and Mt. Baker). From 1930s social clubs to the big-hair ‘80s, this is an incredible display—and a reminder that we have all been teenagers.

“Fast is the new slow,” declared one Toronto newspaper’s front page when the B.C. government announced it is in-creasing speed limits around the prov-ince.

The headline picked up on Transpor-tation Minister Todd Stone’s justification for raising limits on 35 stretches of rural B.C. highway. Stone referred to traffic studies that show portions of the highway sys-tem where the vast majority of drivers already travel at the new speeds.

Stone emphasized that ac-cident risk is not so much a function of speed, but of dif-ferences in speed between vehicles. That’s why the signs going up this sum-mer will include a new warning for left lane hogs: “Keep Right – Let Others Pass.”

For the first time, there is a 120 km/h limit on three segments of rural divided highway, parts of the Coquihalla, the Okanagan Connector and a stretch be-tween Parksville and Campbell River on Vancouver Island. 

Having regularly driven up and down the B.C. Interior highway system for the past 30 years, I can confirm that particu-larly once you get “beyond Hope,” driv-ers do set the speed limit. In good condi-tions, it’s generally about 10 km over the posted maximum, particularly in the long spaces between communities where resources to do regular speed enforce-

ment simply don’t exist.Improvements in the road system,

and the modern vehicles that drive it, have been enormous.

My last trip was in June, up the Fraser Canyon and on through the Cariboo to Prince George. The canyon offers some of the harshest road-building conditions

in Canada, but even por-tions of that cliff-hang-ing, rock-and-tunnel road are getting increas-es from 90 to 100 km/h.

There are two com-mon assumptions about this move. One is that increasing the speed

limit means people will automatically drive faster. The other is that higher speeds mean more accidents, or at least more severe accidents.

The government downplayed opposi-tion to this change, which Stone  sig-nalled  last fall when he launched the public consultation.

Police agencies don’t like it. ICBC of-ficials are skeptical to say the least. IC-BC’s latest rate increase was attributed mostly to cost pressure from higher inju-ry payouts, and it will be tracking the sections of higher speed limit to see if the number of severe accidents goes up.

Speed wasn’t singled out when inter-im ICBC boss Mark Blucher made the case for an increase of nearly 5% on basic insurance last fall. One reason why

claims for bodily injury, pain and suffer-ing, future care and loss of earnings are going up is that more people are hiring lawyers.

Another reason is distraction, not just from mobile devices but also more pe-destrians and cyclists in urban areas.

Are drivers getting worse? A recent report out of Saskatchewan suggests they are.

In 2013, only  48%  of new drivers in Saskatchewan passed their road test. The test hasn’t changed much in the past decade, and there are more immigrants who aren’t accustomed to highway driv-ing, North America style. 

But a veteran driving instructor calls today’s new drivers “the weakest genera-tion I’ve ever taught,” after they spent their formative passenger years watching TV or playing with game machines and other screens while on the road.

“The awareness level isn’t where it was when I started 15 years ago,” Margot Podiluk told the Saskatoon Star-Phoenix. “Today’s generation, they’re so connect-ed to electronic devices they don’t look out of car windows.”

If raising speed limits is a mistake, accident statistics will soon tell the tale. My expectation is that on rural highways, speed limits are just catching up to the traffic.

Tom Renney will be named Hockey Canada president and CEO, a source tells The Canadi-an Press.

Renney, who previ-ously was an associate coach on Mike Babcock’s staff with the Detroit Red Wings, will replace Bob Nicholson, who resigned earlier this year.

The announcement is expected to take place Tuesday afternoon in Calgary.

Renney is a well-re-spected hockey person with 17 years of coaching experience in the NHL, WHL and international-ly. He spent the past two seasons with the Red Wings.

Before that, Renney was head coach of the Edmonton Oilers, New York Rangers and Van-couver Canucks. The 59-year-old Cranbook, B.C., native served as head coach of Team Can-ada for two years, includ-ing the 1994 Olympics, after two seasons behind the bench of the WHL’s Kamloops Blazers.

Renney also served as Rangers’ director of play-er personnel and vice president of player devel-opment.

His history with Hockey Canada is a long one. In addition to win-ning a silver medal at the 1994 Olympics, Renney has coached Canada in 10 world championships and also served as vice president of hockey op-erations in 1998 and 1999.

Former Colorado head coach and recent Pittsburgh assistant Tony Granato will replace Renney in Detroit, ac-cording to multiple re-

ports.Hockey Canada’s

board of directors began its confidential search for Nicholson’s replacement in April with the expecta-tion of making a hire by the end of July.

In June, Nicholson was named vice chair-man of Oilers Entertain-ment Group in Edmon-ton. He maintained his position as vice president of the International Ice Hockey Federation.

The day he resigned,

Nicholson said he hoped his successor cared about the game.

“Make sure that you’re in Flin Flon and all the small (towns with) minor hockey across the country,” Nicholson said April 4. “Talk about sledge hockey, talk about women’s hockey. The other stuff’ll come. The NHL, the Canadian Hockey League, we have good partnerships there and it’ll continue to be strong.”

Five Cranbrook players are on the Kootenay Zone U12/11 soccer team that will be competing in the B.C. Summer Games in Nanaimo this weekend.

DAILY TOWNSMAN / DAILY BULLETIN

TRE VOR CR AWLEYSports Editor

Earlier in June, local swimmers brought a medal haul back to Cranbrook in advance of the B.C. Summer Games.

Sydney Kenke, Chloe Mayes, Matthew Meuleman, Ryan Pen-ney and Cam Wilson of the Cranbrook Triton Swim Club attended the 2014 Swim BC Long Course AA Champion-ship in Victoria.

Ryan Penney led the group with gold in 100 breaststroke, silver in 200 individual medley and bronze in both the 100 freestyle and the 200 freestyle. Ryan also placed 6th in 50 free-

style and 7th in 100 backstroke.

Matthew swam in five events and achieved silver in the 200 freestyle. Matthew also placed 7th in the 100 freestyle and 8th in both the 50 freestyle and the 200 individual medley.

Sydney swam in five different events and placed 6th in the 100 and 200 breaststroke.

Chloe swam in six different events and placed 6th in the 200 freestyle and 7th in the 400 freestyle.

Cam Wilson com-peted in the 14 and over age group, swimming in four events, placing 4th in the 200 individual

medley and 8th in the 200 breaststroke.

“All five swimmers swam personal best times and their perfor-mances were impres-sive,” said Triton head coach Dave Chisholm. “Each swimmer should be very happy with their performances at this meet and the tre-mendous improvement they have achieved this season. I am extremely proud of each and every swimmer.”

Mayes, Meuleman, Penney, Kenke and Jayden White are all heading to Nanaimo to represent the Kootenay zone and compete in the upcoming B.C. Summer Games.

Five local players make Kootenay soccer teamTRE VOR CR AWLEY

Five local girls are representing the region on the Kootenay zone soccer team for the up-coming B.C. Summer Games, which begins this week on Vancouver Island.

Dawson Downie, Al-yssa Berkheim, Macken-zie Fulton, Kiara Ker and Lucy Lalach are all com-ing out of Cranbrook to join eight other girls from Nelson and one from Rossland to compete at the Games in Nanaimo.

The Kootenay zone held a pair of tryouts in Castlegar and Cranbrook earlier this year, with roughly 25 U12/11 play-ers vying for 14 spots.

The roster was even-tually solidified and the

team has met a couple times for practices and games to tune up for the Games.

Downie, a forward who plays in the KEYSA Rovers system, is antici-pating her Summer Games experience.

“I’m looking forward to competing and play-ing other teams and just being there,” Downie said.

After an email circu-lated through the KEYSA team that there were open tryouts, she jumped at the opportunity for a chance to participate in the Summer Games.

“[Tryouts] was really fun because we got to meet girls from other cit-ies that we play soccer with,” Downie said. “We had to do a fitness test

and that was hard be-cause we had to push ourselves.”

Her teammate, Lucy Lalach, is just as eager to get down to business, with her sights set on being at the top of the standings.

“I’m looking forward to going to Nanaimo and wanting to win the gold medal,” said Lalach.

Lalach, a goalkeeper, has been playing soccer since she was three years old and says the team has bonded pretty well.

“At first it felt kind of weird, because we played against them, but you also wanted to be friends with them,” Lalach said.

“But since the last camp, we’re all pretty good friends now.”

ARIES (March 21-April 19) You have a lot going on, and you’ll want to use your ingenui-ty to resolve an issue. Reach out to an older relative you typically look up to, as he or she could be changing his or her views. This might explain why this person seems unstable. Tonight: Get as much sleep as you can. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Zero in on what you want, and don’t allow a changeable situ-ation to throw you off. A con-versation you’ll have could be quite informative, especially if you can stay open-minded. You are likely to get a lot of feedback in a discussion. Tonight: Where your friends are. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You could be more wound-up about a money matter than you realize. Someone more knowledgeable than you could offer various ideas. Know what is happening with the people you deal with; it can help you understand where they are

coming from. Tonight: Till the wee hours. CANCER (June 21-July 22) You might be coming from a place of doubt. If you detach, you will gain a lot of informa-tion. Your imagination could take you in a new direction as well. Brainstorm with friends who know a lot more about the topic in question than you do. Tonight: Surf the Web. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) You will gain a lot more in-formation if you pull back and say little. Others also will open up more as a result. You could be shocked by what someone reveals. This person might not even be aware of what he or she has said. Tonight: Have a long-overdue conversation. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Others will give you powerful feedback; they also want your opinion. Hopefully, you are in the mood for a brainstorm-ing session. A friend seems to speak freely without thinking carefully through his or her statements. Tonight: The only answer is “yes.”

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) You might be put off by an ap-pointment or meeting that you wish you could cancel. A fam-ily member or domestic issue could throw you off your game. Be careful with a money matter, particularly if you feel as though your finances are tight. Tonight: Your treat. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Speak your mind, but be as diplomatic as possible. Read between the lines in a conver-sation that could really affect you. You need to confirm certain concepts that you might have, as well as your vision of the whole matter. Tonight: Let your hair down. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Remain sensitive not only to your financial situation, but to others’ as well. Be direct in how you deal with others. You could have a sense of a new beginning regarding an emotional issue. Be aware of your limitations. Tonight: Happiest at home. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You draw others in, but they might not be as easy to deal

with as you would like. You could be changing your think-ing and how you handle your life. Try to express the new you more in conversations, as others seem not to acknowledge the change. Tonight: All smiles. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You might not want to share everything that you are observ-ing, as it seems to be easier that way. You’ll make an impression on someone, but he or she might be reluctant to respond. Give yourself and others some space. Deal with a money mat-ter. Tonight: Play it low-key. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Your intuitive sense works well with a child or new love interest. You don’t need to overthink; instead, you need to act when you feel the timing is right. Make a point to follow your intuition as well as your perceptions. Tonight: Let your imagination call the shots. BORN TODAY Painter Rembrandt (1606), au-thor Iris Murdoch (1919), Saint Frances Xavier Cabrini (1850) ***

Dear Annie: Every year, my grandmother and I go to my cousins’ house for Christ-mas. This year is different for me. I have had the miracle of God helping me overcome some major addictions in my life. I’ve expressed to my uncle that I do not feel like I know who my cousins are now that we are adults and have lost touch to some extent. There are also economic dif-ferences. My income is near the poverty level, and I receive government assistance. My cousins, however, are financially suc-cessful. I have made attempts to meet with them, but it never happens. They are not into religion, and I believe they are controlled by materialism. (My aunt and uncle give me cash for Christmas.) I also notice that they do not open presents in front of us. I feel like a stranger who just shows up for a free meal and to get “paid.” I think that going there cheapens the impor-tance that this day has for me. I would rath-er go where they feed the homeless and be an example unto them. -- Trying To Keep my Dignity Dear Trying: While we agree that the holiday season includes rampant materi-alism, you are being awfully harsh in your judgment of the relatives. The meal and ex-changing of gifts is traditional in most fam-ilies. Not opening presents is sometimes a way to avoid embarrassing someone whose gift may not be as fancy as someone else’s. Giving cash is a way of providing a gift when you aren’t sure what the other person likes and you want to please them. These are all kind and thoughtful gestures, and we aren’t sure why you don’t harbor more charitable thoughts toward your family. However, if going to your cousins’ makes you miserable and you would rath-er spend the holiday feeding the homeless, we certainly wouldn’t try to dissuade you. We wish more people would lend a hand to those in need. Dear Annie: My grandson and his family live in another state. His daughter, “Mary,” is having her first birthday soon, and since it is not possible for me to be there in per-son, I went online to the websites of two major stores and ordered gifts from each store and had them delivered. I let them know the packages were on the way. When the packages were received, they called and said the gifts arrived and added, “Thank you for the presents.” I realize that I am lucky to have gotten that much acknowledgement. But since I went to the trouble of picking out things I thought Mary would like, it is too much to ask that they at least tell me what they think? Could they not have said, “She loved playing with the toys,” or “The dress was so cute”? Am I expecting too much? I could have gotten the same response with less effort if I had just sent a gift card. -- Picky Grandma Dear Picky: A proper thank-you includes specific comments about the gift, even if just to say how thoughtful it was. And if you are comfortable asking, you can inquire whether Mary liked the toys and dress. But, sorry to say, we suspect a gift card would please her parents just as much. Dear Annie: I have a suggestion for “Thought I Was Part of a Large Family,” who feels distant from her siblings: Go to the reunion with a different focus. Take along family group sheets, which you can get at your local library or through Ancestry.com. Distribute one to each family to fill out, and have them return the sheets to you during the reunion. That way, if you never go to another reunion, you still will have a lot of family information. Be sure they add their email addresses. This could bring the family closer togeth-er. It is a beginning, not an ending. -- Re-tired Genealogist Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitch-ell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

Top Ten Reasons to Advertise in a Newspaper

1. Advertise to Reach New Customers.Your market changes constantly. Advertising is tremendously helpful in directing customers to the product and services they need, and helps put you ahead of your competition.

2. Your Competition Isn’t Quitting.You’ve got to advertise to get your share of business or lose it to the stores that do. If you cut back on your advertising, you may forfeit new prospective customers to your competition.

3. Advantage Over Competitors Who Cut Back.A five year survey of more than 3,000 companies found that advertisers who maintained or expanded advertising during a troubled economy saw sales increase an average of 100%.

4. Continuous Advertising Strengthens Your Image.When people who postpone buying come back to the marketplace, you’ve got a better chance of getting their business if you’ve continued to maintain a solid, reliable image.

5. Direct Advertising is Cost Efficient.Direct has the advantages – demographic and geographic numbers to afford advertisers the best value and exposure for their advertising dollar.

6. Advertise to Generate Traffic.Continuous traffic is the first step toward sales increases and expanding your base of buyers. The more people who contact you, the more possibilities you have to make sales.

7. Advertise to Make More Sales.Advertising works! Businesses that succeed are usually strong, steady advertisers. Look around. You’ll find the most aggressive and consistent advertisers are almost invariably the most successful.

8. Advertise Because There is Always Business to Generate.Salespeople are on the payroll. As long as you’re in business, you have overhead and you’ve got to advertise to generate a steady cash flow.

9. Advertise to Keep a Healthy Positive Image.In a troubled economy, rumors and bad news travel fast. Advertising corrects gossip, shoots down false reports and projects positively.

10. Advertise to Maintain Employee Morale.When advertising and promotion are cut, salespeople become less motivated. They may believe the store is cutting back, even going out of business.

Want to reach new customers? We read the newspaper every day, Monday to Friday.
