SALEMANSHIP Salesmanship has to do with selling goods or commodities to intending or prospective customers. In a sense, and practically developed, salesmanship is a fine art. Not everybody, or any body, for that matter, can be a good salesman there is so much to know and to understand. Perhaps the following ten points, published by Standard Rate and Date Service Digest, will be of real value to business men who aim to pleace patrons, and to those who are try ing to be salesmen, but who have not yet made good. The ten points are as follows: 1. To treat each customer with the courtesy that springs from genuine ' friendship and respect 2. To have more thought lor the customer's final satisfaction than for the amount of the immediate sale. 3. To know the stock and to be accurate in statements about mer chandise. 4. To be as attentive to the pur chaser of an inexpensive article as to one whose needs are more elabor ate. 5. To be patient with the customer who is provoked; prompt with the customer who is hurried; sympathetic with the customer who is puzzled; considerate to those who are difficult to satisfy, and hospitable to those who are strangers In the store 6. To seek a fair understanding of the customer's exact requirements that the proper merchandise may be shown. 7. To be friendly, but not familiar; cheerful, but not boisterous; to give information, not advice. 8. To keep the service up to the standard of the merchandise. 9. To increase sales, not by means of persuausion or trickery ;but by making customers feel that this is the store in which they are served pleasantly, capably and promptly; so that they will wish to do as much of their buying here as their needs will permit. 10. Be loyal to your employer, con- Siderate toward associates and there- fore keep true to yourself. There is so very much of good sug gestion in the above ouoted ten Doints lhat estended comment might naTe the effect of diverting attention by those who can profit most by study ing, every inefficient salesman is a eerious liability to his employer 'and to himself; that every effort made to be a really good salesman is In the direction of giving better and better service to the buying public and for the employers of salesmen inefficien cy and incompetency are taxing patrons and employers enormously. :o: MB. LEWIS AND OTHERS Two churches break into the day's They offer two messages to the world. And what different messages they i are In one churcn Sinclair Lewis, the novelist take3 tne pulpit. He "con- Hii nte q t ornoH mor t ' V r foTMncr nnt his watch and defying God to trike him dead in ten minutes. "Here's a lovely chance for God to show what he can do " declared the autnor. wen, we cannot aisagree with him there. It was. But do not imagine Mr. Lewis has done something new or original. George Bernard Shaw did it much better, much more dramatically. "I give God three minutes to strike me dead," Mr. Shaw once said. i "I am a very busy man." While Lewis in one church was showing God what a fine opportunity man 83 years old, sang in a soft plaintive baritone five verses of "The Beautiful Land." Applause is not regular in that church, but when the old man sat the din of handclapping sweept up to the choir box. There are many kinds of people in the world, the cheap and the sin cere and many are the kinds of godSiaction weakens the bowels, leads to tt . t chronlc constipation.

BAKING Same Price far over 35years 2-5 ounces J"or 23 cents WKyPay Wa.xr Prices ? Our Government used millions cf pounds LOVING THE BEAUTIFUL We have been told many times that a bir"d in the hand is worth two in the bush. And yet, if all the birds were gathered in the hand, there would be no singing by the roadsides of life. It has Deen said that three things forever make man different from the beasts of the field the desire to know the truth, the desire to serve and the love of beautiy. As long as man is conscious of these three impulses in his life he does not need worry about evolution or much else. It is better to appreciate the things we cannot have than to have the things which we cannot appreciate. Are j-ou wondering what the rela tionship between these random re marks may be? They are all related. In fact, they are all saying the same thing. They are saying that the possession of things does not mean riches. Real riches come from the inward ability to appreciate the best whether the best is in the field of painting, litera- ture, music, science or religion. Having things and not knowing what they mean is not much. Having thinps and not knowing what they are all about is to remain in dire poverty the poverty of the mind and soul. Your money may enable you to buy books to fill shelves that reach to the roof of your bouse, but if you can not read your books with pleasure and understanding you are poorer than the man who works in your garden and loves the flowers, listens to the birds songs and dreams dreams in the afternoon sunshine. Michael Pupin, great scientist and teacher in Columbia University, tells us what his mother said to him when he was a poor peasant lad in Serbia. "She could neither read nor write," Pupin says, "and always told me she felt she was blind in spite of her eyes. She said, 'My boy, if you wish to get out into the world about which you hear so much, you must provide your self with another pair of eyes the eyes of reading and writing.' " The peasant woman sensed the great store of riches than cannot be bought with money. And within her was the desire to know the truth and love of beauty. :o: Looking back on the prohibition in quiry it may fairly be said that Wayne Wheeler and the Anti-Saloon League have made the United States as dry as the Atlantic ocean ever dar- ed to be. -:o If the issue in 1928 is to be prohi- bition, what a nice little time we might have with a race of Butlers with Nicholas M heading the wets, and Smedley D., leading the drys. :o: Don't use harsh physics. The re- Regulets. They operate easily, at all stores. . 30c Job Printing at Journal Office. Dr. John A. Griffin Dentist Office Houn: 9-12; 1-6. 8&fft&s end evenings by apTfiiifQnent only.

Begley, acclaim the new the modern the acclaim the new tne modern tne young, to grant without question that) all its demands be met, that it be gorged to satisfaction and no ques tion asked is altogether good. Once in a while one wonders if youth should not rather be taught of the beauties of the old, reepect for the dignity and worth of tradition and history welded together by the final and best thought of many men big and strong. In other words, should youth's greedy call of "Gimme! Gimme!" yelled at the citadel of education, be met on its own terms, or should youth be led to see perhaps that what it pcorns has some worth? Should education be given "th lipstick and rouge" 60 much as yowl ing youth itself should be given good trouncing until its unwhole somely puffed head shrinks into some semblance of a human head's shape There must be a happy meaning somewhere.
