Plenty of Proof Given
v "
That Advertising Pays
Try it Yourself and See
It's easy to believe when you try
it. We refer to the pulling power of
the Enterprise advertising. Listen.
Last Sunday F, F. Theroux, dealer
in musical instruments, oarrled a lit
tle display advertisement, which also
appeared in the weekly edition. From
that advertisement, Mr. Theroux sold
three pianos and a number of small
musical instruments.
How's that for results?
Mr. Theroux used our cut service,
that is offered, without charge, to all
advertisers, and he speaks in glowing
terms of the results he achieved.
Do you see a moral In this story for
yourself?

ANOTHER BULL3EYE
We rang the boll again!
On Sunday,. October 6, we ran
a
render for Smith's Tire Shop
on Seventh streut. The advertise
ment was 24 inches and . cost
$2.40, It told of the new machine
for manufacturing cord re-treads.
That Uttle) advertisement
brought the Smith Tire Shop 16
4
tire orders, and It paid for itself
many times over. Aside from the
Mornlpg Enterprise Sunday edi
tion no publicity was used, so
there Is no question about where
the results came from.
What's the answer?
OF ALL VARIETIES
One of the beauty spots or West
Linn Is the floral garden of Mrs. P,
J. Win kef, where over 85 dahlia
plants are gf-owln g, fhowhlc omhrdllu
plants are growing, of which there are
over 30 varieties, ranijlng from the
snowy white to tbe almost black.
These are not tbe new varieties, but
are of the genuine old kind that you
never tire of, and ones thc.t will last
much lonr than the new. Mrs. Wlnkej
is most generous wjtn her Cowers, and
since they are commencing to bloom,
she has hit upon a plan where the
Oregon City hospital patients are to
have their rooms brightened by these
gorgeous colored flowers.
Wednesday Mrs. Wlnkel sent ber
first donation to the local Institution,
and is planning to continue the good
work until tbe season for the flowers
closes. Many rooms were brightened
by these flowers, and the patlenta
were overjoyed with thel- gifts.
' Also growing in the Wlnkel garden
is an orange tree, as well as a lemon
tree.

It seems that he misunderstood the
cooker to say No. 4 waa to be blown,
when In reality It was No. 5.
He received the full charge of
steam from the 15-inch pipe and was
terribly burned about the face and
arms, his eyes and noBe being swollen
ShUt.'
There is no mistake that he misun
derstood the order, as his helper warn
ed him that he had the wrong digester
ready, but he seemed to be certain that
he was right. Even though the order
was wrongly interpreted he undoubted
ly would have had time to got out of
danger and it is thought that he dis
covered his mistake and tried to elos
the digester.
He was removed to the hospital and
W. P. Hawley Jr., rushed physicians
to the, institution and everything waa
done for the man, but to no avail .
Mr. Balscom died at 7:15 oelock
Tuesday night. He leaves a widow and
two children, a son and a daughter.
