Macksburg People
Return from Tour
of European Lands
CANBY. Aug. 9.2 Mr. and Mrs.
- Charles Kraxberger, who left their
home at Macksburg five months ago
on a European trip, returned to their
home on August 26, after a delightful
trip. They made the trip to Europe
on the steamship Rotterdam and re
turned on. the same boat. "
Among the countries they visited
were Switzerland, where they were
guests of Mrs. Kraxberger's mother,
sister and brothers, and many friends.
They also visited relatives of Mr.
Kraxberger in Austria. Other coun
tries which were visited were Ger
many, Holland and England, return
ing by way of Canada-
While in Switzerland they made
many side trips, and scaled several
high mountain peaks.
The -conditions in Austria were
found frightful, and aged people were
standing on street corners piteously
begging for bread. The Kraxbergers
were told that unless outside help
soon arrived thousands of inhabitants
would starve to death. In Switzer
land conditions were somewhat dif
ferent, and none were found suffering
as in the former country. Conditions,
in Germany were not as good as
Switzerlad, but still a big improvement
over that in Austria.

Tried Out, Thoroughly
Tested Plan for Increasing
Your Business Twelve
Months in the Year.
v is the cover title of an intensely interesting and highly educational booklet sent out by
one of the world's largest makers of Foot appliances and remedies, to dealers encourag
ing them to use newspaper display advertising space consistently and continuously.
Here's a Plan Which You Should Adopt
m Thirteen of these electros should be ordered and run once for a
week for thirteen weeks and then rotated four times, giving you a full year's campaign.
Give these electros to your newspaper man and make a definite contract with him
to run for one full year. Don't even try to check up on the first month or two, but wait
until the year is up and then take inventory of the results, and if the past experience of
many other dealers who have made such a success is any criterion, we know that you
will never desire to change your policy.
During the past several years we have repeatedly been requested to outline t definite
advertising campaign for many of our dealers. Their results have proven the wisdom
of our recommendations- What is good for one merchant is good for all other merchants
working under similar conditions.
Why This Plan Succeeds
Advertising to be effective and productive must have an accumula
tive effect. Suppose you run one ad a week for fity-two weeks and each ad brings only
one customer to your store. As an investment, checking immediate results, you have
good grounds to argue that the advertising was unproofitable. However, at the end of
the year you have added fifty-two new customers to your list.
If your services and merchandise have been satisfactory, at the beginning of the
second year you will have all or a large proportion of these fifty-two new customers to
add to youv revenue. Continue this process of multiplication, and you will see the con
structive and accumulative value of this class of advertising.
Among the thousands of our customers who have carried through a well-planned ad
vertising policy such as herein outlined, not a one, to our knowledge, but what has
profited handsomely from their advertising investment.
Mr. Merchant, Business or Professional Man. Why don't you add
one or more new customers or patients to your list, each week? Con
sistent advertising in the Morning Enterprise will make you many
times more than 52 new friends in a year. Try it.
