Who better to accept a donation for the Sparks Youth Society than the youth it serves? Above, Cheryl Greenwood of FOCUS (with youth centre board member Bev Middlebrook in the background) presents a $500 cheque to the Society, which is being used for a new computer. FOCUS raises funds — which remain in Kimberley — at weekly meat draws at the Kimberley Elks Club, to which all are welcome.

Dates set for candidates forums C AROLYN GR ANT Bulletin Editor
As always the all-candidates forum for the Kimberley municipal elections will be hosted by the Kimberley Chamber of Commerce. The dates for the two forums — one for Councillors, one for mayoral candidates — have now been set. The forums will take place at McKim Theatre. Candidates for Council will debate on November 3 and candidates for Mayor on November 4. Details for the evenings are still being worked on, says Chamber Manager Mike Guarnery, but here’s what has been decided so far. Candidates will all have opportunities to
speak briefly and then they will answer questions from Kimberley residents. If you have a question you’d like to put to a candidate, please email the Chamber at manager@kimberleychamber.com. On the subject line, please indicate Question for Council or Question for Mayor. Doors will open at 6 p.m. each evening with a one-hour meet and greet with candidates before they take to the stage in the theatre. Then the forum will run from 7 to 9 p.m. Taking part in the Council forum will be Albert Hoglund, Kent Goodwin, Bev Middlebrook, Darryl Oakley, Sandra Roberts, Brent Bush, Darren Close and Nigel Kitto. Mayoral candidates are Ron McRae, Don McCormick and Doug Johnson.

Doug Johnson was a last minute entrant into the Kimberley mayor’s race, filing his papers late last week. But that doesn’t mean he hasn’t been thinking about it for quite some time. Johnson says he has been mulling the idea over for some seven years, and seriously thinking about it for the last year. His ideas for what the City of Kimberley should be doing going forward are simple, he says — slow down and zip up your wallet. “For the last year or so I’ve been getting angry and a little bit scared watching my taxes go up,” he said. “I’m on a perfectly adequate pension but now it isn’t enough. My taxes used to be about $30 a month, now that’s up to $114, and they are going up even more.” Johnson says he has talked to many other Kimberley residents who are just as frustrated and worried. Johnson has a long history of community service in Kimberley with the Bavarian Society, the Kimberley Community Development Society, minor sports and more. He also served one term on Council beginning in 1987. “I’ve done the alderman’s job. I want to be Mayor,” he said. He says he has watched appalled as the surplus fund so thoughtfully built up prior to the closure of the Sullivan Mine has been whittled away.
Mayoral candidate Doug Johnson “The City has taken on too many pie in the sky projects. There has been no choice but to raise taxes, but the city got itself into this mess. The surplus is gone. I don’t know where it went.” Johnson says that after the mine closed people were prepared for tough times, and knew that things wouldn’t be the same without the big industrial tax base. There were, and are, still things that make Kimberley a great place to live, tough times or not. “We need to face facts and quit this hysterical endeavour to try to make this into a boom town again. “We need to expect less. The city is there to provide basic services. “The flume was a problem and it needed to be fixed. It was a simple enough job and it didn’t have to be done overnight. But all of a sudden, we have a six million dollar bill and it’s not even done yet. “I want to be Mayor. I want to try to slow things down a bit. See JOHNSON, Page 3

Third candidate enters Kimberley mayor’s race
Johnson says he’ll slow things down and close the wallet
From page 1 “And we don’t need to be pick-
ing what industry Kimberley needs. Someone floats the idea of a prison — it’s an industry, it provides jobs, but the idea was totally nixed because it’s not the right fit. That’s the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard.” When the idea of a prison came
up, it was put forward by another candidate for Mayor Don McCormick. Johnson was asked if he worried that his candidacy would lead to vote splitting. “I thought about that,” he said. “I thought Don might be a good can-
didate and with me entering, he and I might roll around in the ditch and kill each other, letting Ronnie sneak in the back door. “But I’m doing it anyway. I’m going to beat them both. I’m not Pa Kettle, I’m not Dogpatch. I’ve done
things in this town. I’ve been a Councillor. I can do this job.”

Investigation into bear attack continues Son-in-law lauded for ‘heroic actions Barry Coulter
The investigation is continuing into an inci-
dent Sunday, where a Cranbrook man was attacked by a grizzly while hunting near Fernie, according to Ministry of Environment Officials. Wilf Lloyd is reported to be in stable condition in Calgary, where he was
airlifted after the Sunday morning attack. Lloyd also sustained a gunshot wound to the leg. His hunting partner — Lloyd’s son-in-law , “Skeet” Podrasky — shot the bear several times in an attempt to rescue
Lloyd. One of the shots hit Lloyd in the leg. He underwent surgery on Sunday, and again on Tuesday. Darrell Orth, a friend of Lloyd’s, told Mike Turner of Global News that both men were ex-
perienced hunters, who knew the area very well. They were hunting elk on Podrasky’s family land near Fernie when the bear attacked. Orth spoke highly of Lloyd, who he described as one who loved the outdoors, wildlife and hunting. Orth also praised the actions of Podrasky.
“For him to have the presence of mind was heroic. It appears to have saved (Lloyd’s) life. It could have ended up much worse than it did. He did something very brave in killing the bear that was attacking his father-in-law.” Mary Giuliano, Mayor of Fernie, told Mike Turner that there
has been an increase in bear sightings in Fernie over the past three to four years. “Last year we actually had them wandering around town.” Giuliano said current education programs, like Bear Aware, help residents know how to react if they see a bear.

Spotlight on youth engagement Seeking a Youthful Perspective at Centre 64 Submit ted by Mike Redfern, President, Kimberley Arts Council
Most community arts councils are highly dependent on volunteers to run programs and events and to provide guidance to staff in the day to day running of the organization. And where do they find most of their volunteers? Among people with spare time and the energy and desire to serve their community. For the most part, those are retirees, a.k.a senior citizens. Kimberley Arts Council is no exception to this general rule; six of its 10 current directors are retired. It is also true that the community served
by the arts council is mainly adult and well populated with seniors. Is it any surprise, therefore, that many arts council programs and events have traditionally appealed to this generation? In an effort to be more intergenerational in its appeal and to engage children and youth in the arts community, Kimberley Arts Council (KAC) has for the past several summers offered a 6-week Creative Kids summer art program with art and craft classes for younger children taught by local artists. It has also offered a very popular fashion camp for children. Following the demise of the Kimberley Summer Theatre school, KAC ran a successful 4-day theatre camp for children this summer. These programs will be reviewed this winter with a view to increasing both the skill-building components and to enhancing their appeal to older children and youth. For several years annual student art exhibi-
tions have been hosted by KAC, evolving in 2014 into a young artists’ exhibition offering professional adjudication and prizes. In preparation for the second such exhibition in May 2015, KAC is collaborating with Selkirk Secondary School students in planning a series of skill-building workshops for young artists. Digital design, photography, video & film-making, public art (graffiti) and large puppet-making workshops are all in the planning stage. Local artists are being recruited to conduct these workshops and grants are being applied for to make them affordable for youth. Plans are also afoot to train some young artists to act as jurors in helping to adjudicate the next KAC youth exhibition in May 2015. KAC’s board of directors and program committee members are intent on engaging youth in these and other activities and events and in providing more youth-centred activities and events in the future.
Chamber relaunching website Jim Cunnington of Sundock Interactive, will be guiding the presentation of the website. It is designed to be comprehensive for a variety of computer platforms and mobile devices. Those attending are encouraged to bring their smart phones and tablets to
learn first-hand about the functions. There will also be short presentations from Junior Achievement representatives regarding the JA program with Selkirk Secondary School students interested in business mentorships, and Tara Penner from the Koote-
nay Rockies Innovation Council about services they provide for the business community. The Chamber encourages the membership and their guests to attend, as well as those interested in learning more about the Chamber and their role in local business

A colourful history in black and white “Life’s just a soap-opera without commercials.” Anonymous
D
o they call them ‘snaps’ anymore? Folk were always taking snaps years ago. I had a folding Kodak camera that I hauled about all over the place; I took snaps. Anyway, the photographs around me here in my living-room are not snaps; they are portraits, some taken by professionals, some by gifted amateurs, and some just neatly mounted and framed. They are extremely personal to me. That’s why they’re not merely stored on my computer; I want to look at them every day; they are my life. Well, not all of it. Most of them date from my wedding to Jean (Jimmy) Alexander and that was 63 years ago. That is why most of them are monochrome, good old black and white prints. The wedding picture: Jimmy and I look ridiculously young. I am wearing the only suit that I think I’ve ever owned. What happened to that gorgeous wedding dress on my lovely wife? I have no idea. Another B/W picture is of Jimmy and me in Scotland. I like to tease new friends and say that that ‘snap’ was taken on our honeymoon. It was the same year but nine months later and we’re standing outside a
tumbledown ‘bothy’ in the Scottish highlands. We spent Christmas there with friends and, I seem to recall, there was more snow inside that hut than on the hills around it. We must have worn those same smelly clothes for a full week; there were no facilities whatsoever, but we had a marvellous time. There’s a professional black and white portrait of Jimmy on the top of the TV. She looks great, but not the way I remember her. The one that I took of her flying down the Kimberley ski hill is more like it, and the one Peter of her standing on a high Warland ridge in the Rockies, looking out over Dibble Glacier, is the way I’ll always remember her. Hanging on the fireplace there is a picture of the whole family, except for our daughter’s husband, who took the snap on the occasion of our 50th wedding celebration. We were all at Silver Star ski hill in the Okanagan and there only eight of us, the sum total of the Warlands here in Canada. I can still remember our son coming home from school one day complaining that he had no cousins around; all of his friends had dozens of relatives, even in town. Quite frankly, I’ve never missed them. Friends you can choose; rellies you are stuck with. In the hallway there are two frames
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
containing pictures of our two families. Years ago I caught our son’s daughter staring at the one that contains the Warland side. Jessica said something like, “Wow! Isn’t he cute?” I think my chest swelled just a tad because there are two pictures of me in that frame: one in my RAF uniform and the other on a mountain side where I am coiling a climbing rope. I asked which one Jess liked and she flattened me by pointing to my Dad in his Royal Flying Corps ensemble. He does look dashing. Another favourite of mine is of our son as a teenager. He has blond hair down to his shoulders and he is nursing his guitar, the one he learned to play so well. I keep reminding myself that his parents, Jimmy and I, had no musical talent; I wonder where that came from. The pictures that make me smile were taken 20 years apart. In the first monochrome print I am standing, holding our baby daughter in one arm and I have that dazed look of ‘Now! What have we done?’ on my face. The other coloured print is of the same daughter with her arms around me as we stand laughing with glee on the top of a local mountain. Something must have turned out all right. There are the graduation pictures of the grand-children all around the place but they are so posed. They look so very little like the actual kids we know. That’s disappointing.

Bozon’s road to the pros brings him back to Cranbrook Taylor Rocc a Sports Editor
It’s no secret Tim Bozon wants to play professional hockey. After being drafted by the Montreal Canadiens in the third round of the 2012 NHL Entry Draft, the 6-foot-1 winger tore up the Western Hockey League, finishing ninth in league scoring with 36 goals and 91 points as he suited up with the Kamloops Blazers during the 2012-13 season. That left no question the Habs made good in taking the French national with the 64th pick. Tim Bozon was going to be a sure-fire pro hockey player in short order after the type of season he had in 2012-13. Fast-forward two years and rather than suiting up for his first season of professional hockey, Bozon finds himself back in Cranbrook preparing to pull Kootenay Ice colours over his head as a 20-year-old over-ager. “I’m happy to see the boys again, I shared some good moments with them [last season],” Bozon said prior to
practice Tuesday afternoon. “Obviously, it’s not the place I want to be right now. I want to play pro hockey but unfortunately something happened to me in March last year so [the] Montreal [Canadiens] think it’s better for me to play in the WHL with Kootenay for now.” The “something” that happened to Bozon was a well-documented, life-and-death battle with neisseria meningitis that left the promising prospect in a medically-induced coma at Royal University Hospital in Saskatoon. Bozon made immense steps in his recovery this past summer, culminating with his attendance at training camps with the Canadiens and the team’s AHL affiliate in Hamilton this fall. “There weren’t many people that thought I would be at training camp, and I was,” Bozon said. “I said, ‘I’m ready to play.’ I didn’t want to just show up [to camp to] say I was there.” Bozon didn’t just show up to training camp. He suited up in
NHL pre-season action Sept. 26 in Quebec City when the Habs edged the Colorado Avalanche 3-2. After being assigned to the AHL Hamilton Bulldogs, Bozon dressed for a handful of pre-season games with the Canadiens affiliate before getting the news he would spend the 201415 campaign in the WHL. “Everyone told me I played pretty good and I had a really good camp [in Hamilton],” Bozon added. “I’m here back in junior not because I was not good enough…You can tell in puck battles with bigger guys, professional guys, it’s tougher. I need to regain my strength.” Back in Cranbrook, Bozon’s focus is on regaining his goal-scoring confidence and rebuilding the strength that not only made him one of the WHL’s most dangerous offensive threats, but also projected him as one of the Montreal Canadiens’ most prized young prospects. “Our job is to get him to pro hockey,” said Kootenay Ice head

For the first time since being assigned to the Kootenay Ice by the Montreal Canadiens Friday, Oct. 10, forward Tim Bozon (pictured last season) was back with the Ice at Western Financial Place Tuesday. coach Ryan McGill Tuesday afternoon. “He’s had a setback, clearly, because of what he has been through. “He’s worked his butt off to get to where he is right now. The Montreal Canadiens feel he needs more and it’s our job to get him where he needs to go.” Bozon will get every opportunity to regain that goal-scoring confidence with a Kootenay

Canadian Olympian Szabados ready for full season in men’s minor pro league Donna Spencer Canadian Press
Shannon Szabados knows from her taste of the Southern Professional Hockey League to expect the unexpected. The goalie went down to Georgia at the end of September to get ready for a full season with the Columbus Cottonmouths. Training camp opens today. The 10-team SPHL is a minor pro men’s league based in the southeastern United States. Szabados started in a pair of one-goal losses to conclude 2013-14 and played the third period of a Cottonmouths playoff loss in April. “Getting a taste of what it would be like for the next seven or eight months that I’ll be here was definitely an advan-
tage,” Szabados said from Columbus. “It will be nice to start here fresh at the beginning of the season and get in a few games and be on the ice every day.” The Cottonmouths open at home Oct. 24 against the Knoxville Ice Bears. Head coach and general manager Jerome Bechard told The Canadian Press he was leaning towards starting Szabados in the season-opener, even though returning veteran Andrew Loewen of Winnipeg has more pro experience. “I want to get that first win for her really bad,” Bechard said. “We play 56 games. In my mind, right off the bat, the plan is for her to get 20 games, if not more. I guess time will tell and we’ll see.” Szabados said she
hadn’t been told of Bechard’s plans, but she wouldn’t expect him to ease her into the season based on previous experience. She accepted his invitation last March to join the Cottonmouths. Szabados had just backstopped the Canadian women’s hockey team to Olympic gold Feb. 20 in Sochi, Russia. Szabados also filled in March 5 at an Edmonton Oilers practice when the NHL team was temporarily short a goalie. After assuring Szabados he would give her time to adjust to her new team, Bechard threw her into the final home game after just two practices. Szabados stopped 27 shots March 15 in a 4-3 loss to Knoxville. Szabados also had 32 saves in a 3-2 loss in Huntsville less than a week later for a com-
bined 3.55 goals-against average (GAA) and .894 save percentage (SP). The 28-year-old played the last 23 minutes of Game 1 of the SPHL championship against Pensacola in relief of Loewen. Szabados allowed three goals in a 9-1 blowout. The Ice Flyers swept Columbus in the two-game series. Bechard re-signed Szabados in July with the expectation she and Loewen will be the Cottonmouths goalies this season. “I wouldn’t bring her in if she wasn’t legit and didn’t give us an opportunity to win,” Bechard said. “She is probably one of the most technical goalies I’ve seen. “If she’s susceptible, it would be on a rebound, back-door goal because she is a little smaller than Andrew
Ice club starving for offense. The Ice have scored 19 goals through eight games to start the 2014-15 WHL season. In the WHL’s Central Division, only the Lethbridge Hurricanes, with 16 goals, have scored less than the Ice. With 43 tallies, the division-leading Medicine Hat Tigers have more than doubled Kootenay’s offensive output so far this season.
“His tenacity and his will to score is unbelievable,” McGill added. “The kid wants to score every shift. Hopefully that leadership rubs off on other guys.” Bozon is expected to be in the lineup Friday night when the Ice host the Regina Pats at Western Financial Place. Though nothing is set in stone, he could skate alongside centre Luke Philp and right-winger
Jaedon Descheneau. The two veteran forwards represent the team’s top scorers thus far -- Descheneau with five goals and eight points, Philp with four goals and seven points. “Personally, I just play my game and enjoy [it],” Bozon said. “I’m an offensive player...but I just want to be a good player overall, a twoway player.”
and some of the other goalies. But she’s pretty acrobatic and goes side to side with the best of them. She’s really key on making that first save look simple and not giving up the rebounds.” Szabados, five-footeight and 148 pounds, made 27 saves in Canada’s 3-2 thrilling overtime win over the U.S. to defend women’s hockey gold in Sochi. She posted a 28-save shutout over the Americans in the women’s Olympic hockey final in 2010. But Szabados has spent the majority of her career in men’s leagues and it’s where she feels comfortable. Szabados played four years in the Alberta Junior Hockey League with Sherwood Park, Bonneyville and Fort Saskatchewan. Szabados was named the AJHL’s top goaltender in 2006-07. She spent five years in Alberta men’s college hockey with Grant MacEwen and then NAIT. She set an ACAC re-
cord for the lowest GAA (1.58) in 2012-13 when the Ooks won their first championship in 16 years. The SPHL will be her toughest challenge yet in the men’s game. “It’s definitely the highest level I’ve played,” Szabados said. “Going from junior to the ACAC and then to here, it’s similar style except the guys are older, bigger, stronger and faster.” “For me, reaction time and working that into my game has helped me over the years. I started playing hockey with guys when I was five and have stuck with it. Now there’s a lot more female teams, but I really didn’t have that option.” Szabados says her teammates on the Canadian women’s team haven’t given her grief about playing men’s hockey when she could be playing in, and promoting, the Canadian Women’s Hockey League. “On the players’ side of it, they understand,” she said. “As a goalie, it’s
a little easier to play against guys twice your size. A lot of them have said if they could do it, they would. Especially within Hockey Canada, they’ve been pretty supportive.” Bechard’s connection to women’s hockey is cousin Kelly Bechard, a forward from Sedley, Sask., who won Olympic gold with the Canadian women in 2002. He’s a Regina native who compiled 280 penalty minutes with the Moose Jaw Warriors in 1987-88. Manon Rheaume appeared in the first of two NHL pre-season games 22 years ago with the Tampa Bay Lightning. Bechard admits the novelty of a female goalie in the male game still fill seats. “I’d be lying to you if I didn’t say ‘hey, it’s a great story with her being here and competing against the guys,”’ he said. “I’m trying to grow hockey in a non-traditional sport in the south.”

ARIES (March 21-April 19) Others seek you out, but they might not appreciate the reception you give them. You might feel as if you don’t want to be distracted. Be clear with a key person in your life; he or she has much to share and would like to pitch in. Tonight: Sort through your messages. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Don’t push away a partner with your need to rein in a situation. If you do, you will evoke a negative response.

Understanding will evolve as a result. Tonight: Enjoy the moment, and worry less about the future.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) You’ll be able to mobilize your energy, express compassion and avoid a difficult situation. Nevertheless, an argument suddenly could ensue from a misunderstanding. See what happens if you choose to go with the flow. Tonight: Let a hassle wash right over you. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Listen to others, yet also tap into your own knowledge.

Tonight: Get some extra R and R. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Friends will make a point of sharing what is on their mind. You might have difficulty accepting what you are hearing.

A discussion might be necessary, but it also will be freeing. Tonight: Take a midweek break. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Seek out more information. Honor a change in your life, but expect to bypass the issue at hand. Other parties might not know how to handle your choices, so make it a point to be more open and fun-loving. Tonight: Opt for some kind of mental distraction. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You might come off as being feistier than you realize.

Tonight: Go with someone else’s suggestion. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Allow more give-and-take with a very strong associate. This person might need to feel rec-
ognized. Your immediate circle of friends will support your choices. Find someone who will play devil’s advocate for you, as you will need some feedback. Tonight: Where the gang is. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You could be questioning what would be the best way to handle a volatile situation. If you don’t want to engage in a long disagreement, you might consider letting it go. Emphasize your friendships. Tonight: Get as much done on your to-do list as possible. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) You could be at your wits’ end and feel unsure about what needs to happen or what you should do. Understand what is going on with different parties, and tap into your resourcefulness. Stay on top of a situation involving an authority figure. Tonight: Make the most of the moment.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar Dear Annie: I’m 63 and fat, have been divorced for 20 years and live at the poverty level on social security. I am depressed and do not see the point of anything. My three adult children are grown and are truly great people. I see all of them about once a week. I also have two wonderful grandchildren. They are my only success, but they have their own lives. I would like a part-time job, but cannot stand for more than five minutes at a time because of my weight. I just started a medical weight loss program, but it will be at least a year before the results will make a difference. I sleep 10 to 12 hours a day because I don’t want to think about my life. My doctor suggested taking more of my antidepressant, but it has not helped. Do you know of anything that will? -- Lonely and Depressed in Indy Dear Lonely: First talk to your doctor about changing your antidepressant. You may have built up a tolerance, making it less effective. Then check your state, city and county government offices for jobs for women, seniors and the disabled, or for vocational training services to learn to do computer work from home. You might also find help through the U.S. Dept. of Labor (doleta.gov) or through servicelocator.org at 1-877-US2-JOBS. Please don’t give up. Dear Annie: This is the first letter I’ve ever written to an advice column, but I’d like to present the other side of the story. I read the letter from “No Lights,” who complained about her husband, to whom she’s been married for 40 years. She said he neglects her and their home, has had numerous affairs, and “forces” her to have sex. You said it seemed abusive. Having lived a similar life, here’s my take: I have been married for 35 years to a woman who is depressed, overweight and neglectful. I still love her, but she makes it difficult. We haven’t had sex in more than 14 years because she doesn’t care for it. And she won’t talk about it with me or see a counselor. She hasn’t kissed or hugged me in just as long of a time. When I try to hug her, she says, “Leave me alone.” We don’t go anywhere together. We don’t sleep together. She says it’s my fault, but our grown children know that’s not true. There are reasons people do what they do, but it’s not always the fault of one person. I admit my part in this, but at least I’m willing to discuss it and clear the air. It’s not always the husband’s fault. -- P. Dear P.: We appreciate your input and don’t deny that some wives can be difficult and problems with intimacy run both ways. We know that some unhappy couples claim to love each other and choose to stay together, but it doesn’t justify neglect, forced sex and multiple affairs. This is why we recommend counseling for those who are miserable, whether your spouse goes or not. When partners treat each other disrespectfully and abusively, they are better off apart. Dear Annie: I appreciate your printing the letter about the rare congenital disorder schizencephaly. As a pathologist with special training in childhood diseases, I would also like to bring attention to the nonprofit organization known as NORD (National Organization for Rare Disorders). They are headquartered in Danbury, Conn. Their website, www. rarediseases.org, has a wealth of information about rare diseases, most of which become symptomatic in infancy or childhood. Their user-friendly website has separate sections for patients and their families, patient support organizations, and medical professionals. -- J.W.

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.

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.

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%.
