What Have We to Onerl


The best climate in the world
and we underestimate the Importance
of that too often Delightful sur
roundings in our scenery and drives.
Schools as good as any city. Churches
above the average in towns of this
bring up children-far better than
the city or little village. And our
fruit farms for those who want u
get back to the soil and still have
the advantages and conveniences of
town.
How to Go After Them.
You can get anything, within reas-
on. If you go after it,
We can get more travelling men
to move to Canon City if we try.
In the first place we should give
our loyal support to these travelling
men who live here. Other things be-
ing equal, the man who lives here
should get the support of the local
merchant. Where two firms are sell
ing in Canon City the one having
local representative should get the
business.
Four travelling men for wholesale
paper houses call on The Record. 1:
one OF them should move to Canon
City we would give him practically
all OF our business.
\ special committee of the business
Mems Association might be formed
with this one idea in mind. This
committee could list all the men max
ing this field and then could go after
those who could just as we'll resioe
here as elsewhere in a systematic
manner
This committee. in conjunction
with Mr. Maddox, could study the big
field and pick out a suitable list to
work on This could be done by let
tiers and circulars very effectively,
and by special attention whenever the
prospect showed up.
When man moves here we should
bind him by hooks OF steel-at least
by some social attention. We have
lost some families of this kind by
lack of cordiality on the part of our
people-but that's good subject for
another story.
Cañon City record., 1911-04-06

town needs is more people. That's
easy.
But the question always comes up,
why should :; man move to Gamer,
City? What would he do If he came
here? How will he make a living?
What class of people do our oppor-
tunities and advantages best appeal
to?
Many answers will be given 10
these questions and only few will
be plausible.
But there are many people wio
could live in Canon City just as well
as where they are now living and
still go on with the business they
are engaged in now. 1t should BIZ
apparent on the face of it that is a
mighty good class to go after-for
they would spend their money here
and would not detract in any way
from the earning power Of those who
are here now. They would not be-
come competitors of existing business
houses.
We have some of these now. We
ought to have many more.
Take the travelling men, for in
stance - the knight-of-the-road
the drummer. They are a mighty
good class of people. They make
good money. They have nice fam,l-
les. They live well and buy or rent
good houses
II You have never thought of it.
you Will be surprised TO know how
many travelling men now make Canon
City their home. They are here BY
circumstances or accident Little or
no effort has ever been made 70
bring them or help them
Waterloo. Iowa. appreciates the
value of the travelling man as a resi-
dent and has made systematic e.
fort to attract them and hold them
and Waterloo. Iowa is today the
home OF about 500 travelling men
The travelling men of Waterloo alone
with their families would make a
little suburban city larger than South
Canon.
There are two classes OF travelling
men who might be interested in Can
on City as a home town.
First-Those who cover Colorado.
Those who work for Colorado whole
sale houses and make this territory
regularly. There is a host OF these
and many OF them have families.
They would be at home nearly as
much with their home in Canon CITY
as in Denver or Pueblo. Some OF
them live here now, and the number
could be doubled by little effort
and attention.
secend-Those who make big ter
ritories. perhaps the whole United
States and are at home very little.
and at special seasons. know a
man who sells shirt waists. He COW
ers the western half OF the United
States He works three months in
the spring and three months in the
fall and has the rest of the time of.
He lives out by the lake at Battle
Creek because he has made friends
there whom he likes. There are
thousands like him.. who could Just
as well live at Canon City as at any
other point in the United States.
We have had a few families of this
kind There is the Caterlain family
on Lincoln Park, for instance. Mr..
Caterlain travels good deal of the
time He can see about as much Of
his family here as at their old home
down in Iowa. and they like the eli-
mate better here, so they live here.
