The First Fixture | Bought
For My Store
c. s. King. of the King Mercantile Co.. Joplin. Mo.

l check every invoice, and the errors I'm catching on this job
alone will soon make the price of the machine seem insignificant.
In a cash business like ours, accuracy IS even more important
than in a business where you have charge accounts. For, after
a customer is gone, you have no chance to correct your errors.
But in any store, cash or credit, the first fixture to get is the
one that turns profits on paper into profits in the bank.
And that's a Burroughs.
SO Burroughs Models
No business is too small for a Burroughs-and the 90
Burroughs models make one possible for the smallest, as we'll
as for the largest business.
Consult your banker or telephone book for the address of the
Canada.
Burroughs Offices are also maintained IN other principal
cities Of the world.
Danskeren. [volume] (Neenah, Wis.) 1892-1920, 1917-09-12

My theory Is that it's better business to get all the profits on
a $4,000 turnover than half the profits on a $4,000 one.
Mere increase in volume of sales is no guarantee of a ledger
balance on the right side. You've got to get a just and fair
profit on those sales.
A clerk sells dollars worth of groceries and makes an error
of ten cents in adding up the slip. lifts an undercharge your
profits gone. lifts an overcharge, your customers confidence
and perhaps her trade is gone. You lose either way.
ICashed In on Experience
Former experience taught me that getting all the profits de-
ponds largely upon the correct addition of small amounts.
So when I opened my new store l determined to put it on a
basis of mechanical accuracy. That's why my Burroughs Figur-
The first job l used it for was checking up the invoices on
my new goods, and here alone, before I had opened the doors
of my store, it caught errors enough to pay the first instalment
on the machine. If those errors had gone through they would
have bitten a fairIzed chunk out of my profits.
And now it's on the job in the store every day assuring me
that l get every cent of profit that is coming to me.
Cutting Out the Guess Work
There IS no guess work in our figuring. Every sales slip is
added up on the Burroughs. 1t is added quicker than the old
way and we know it's right.
On Saturdays and Mondays-our busiest days-the cashier
adds all the grocery orders on the Burroughs, relieving the
clerks of that responsibility.
