In exchange fo r a quarter it will
do laundry work fo r a period o f 35
minutes.
It sells combination sets o f tooth
brushes and tooth paste.
It sells
sandwiches, hot coffee and will ulti­
mately sell soup.
It sells doughnuts inclosed in a
cellophane bag. It sells moving pic­
ture tickets and slip-on aprons. New
York is trying out a robot street car,
eliminating the services o f a con­
ductor.
The robot even now is selling to
motorists after filling station attend­
ants have left their posts.
The importance o f the mechanical
salesmen in the sale o f standard ar­
ticles is indicated in the statement
L- T. Miller o f the Walgreen
Drug Co., Milwaukee.
He says:
There is an appeal about them and
they are a 'com er’. On certain mer­
chandise like cigarettes or standard
articles on which the purchaser has
made up his mind they will have
value.”
