sons An observation tower on th roof accords a bird"s-eye view of the city and environs Architecturally the building embodies the latest ideas in department stor construction and architecturally is an imposingornament to the city. Th" earliest beginnings of British Columbia's capital city were m the palisades and bastions of Fort Victoria, erected by Sir James Douglas, a chief factor of the Hudson's Bay Company on Camusun Harbor in 1842. The pioneer store tha Ccaipacy built by th fort
was a famous trading center during the Caribou. Klondyke and other Rold stampedes. Merchandise tor the store was lone brought from Engiard by the Company's paddle-wheel steamer Beaver, and later by the Otter, first screw propelled ship on the Pacific coast. The little pioneer store still stands. The contrast between the Company's first tradine establishment and the $rreat store of today emphasizes the marvelous industrial development that haa takes place in British. Columbia.
