SAVINGS?

No...EARNINGS!

Ir, for example, you make your. next shipment VIA SEATTLE and thereby save the several days in transit, you will natur- ally think that you have saved money. But rather, you have earned money...earned it by strategy, by figuring on which port in America is nearest to the Orient.

Scattle bas always enjoyed a geo- graphic position favorable to Orient- al shippers. This city invites you to. learn the facts—to obtain complete information of how other shippers are using Seattle to their advantage. The best facilities are yours in the

seven great public terminals... your accommodations from Scattle include six transcontin- ental railroads, serving seven- teen transpacific steamship . lines.
