Balclutha Advertisements '"' CRY IS STILL THEY COME! People from South of us, People from North of ns, People from Front of us, Coming and Buying. There's no one will deny There's every reason whyAll ought to come and buy At our Establishment. The wonderful success attending our competition with the Dunedin Houses has been most signal, as we were sure it would be, if carried out in a straightforward manner, in act as well as advertisement.
