Witt's Music Emporium, Clinton, Mo.
A WIDE-AWAKE STORE
OUT in Clinton, Mo., J. C. Witt runs a "Music Emporium" where Edison's of all kinds can be heard to advantage, and every facility afforded to enjoy the latest records.
EDISON DEALERS' ROUND TABLE
AMONG the many helpful suggestions received from Edison dealers in response to our request are the following: Free Advertising Space
Peterson Bros. & Johnson, of Jamestown, N.Y., who run "The Boston Store" there, distribute each month a twelve page circular, 10 x 9^2 inches which is published by the New Idea Pattern Co., 636 Broadway, New York. In consideration of the trouble they go to in this disseminating information about the latest dress patterns, they are given a space on the first page, 1% x 4 inches in which to make any announcement they desire over their own name. They very generously devote this space in June issue to the Edison Phonograph for which we supply copy. We shall be glad to co-operate with other dealers having option on space in similar circulars for which they act as distributors. The Edison Wins
To Leslie E. Carl, Deposit, N. Y., we are indebted for a very attractive small folder with the title "The Edison Wins." It fits in an ordinary business envelope {6}4) and has 12 pages, folder shape (not bound). It contains just one incident — that of Mr.
Moran the proprietor of the Moran House, Deposit, who after hearing all the talking machines, decided on the Edison Amberola. It's an effective circular, neatly printed on coated paper in two colors. These are the kind that are read. The Edison in College Athletics
Mr. W. T. Bowles, our dealer at Bloomington, Ind., has rented a model 80 Edison to the University for training purposes. The Coach, Mr. Childs, uses it as an aid in drilling track and football men. The Indianapolis Star comments as follows:
Besides using moving pictures to illustrate points in his method of coaching Indiana athletic teams, Clarence C. Childs has also adopted the phonograph, which he has installed in the new track oval, and which is being used to drill the track and football men. While the track men sprint about the cinder path they mark their steps by the music from the phonograph, from which the muffler has been removed, and which can be plainly heard for a long distance. A Simple Fetching Edison Invitation
How many Edison dealers ever thought of inviting patrons or possible patrons to their own home? L. Yauslin, of Baldwin, Kansas, sent out recently the following invitation neatly printed in Wedding Text:
Yourself and family are cordially invited to attend a musical recital by the Edison Talent, at our home, Sunday afternoon, from 3:00 to 4:00 o'clock. If you have friends at your home bring them with you. Mr. & Mrs. L. Yauslin.
