Show IIOW ONE BOY SELLS NEWSPAPERS Thero Is an article about a newsboy news-boy of Seattle, Washington, In the Doconiber American Magazine. Tho newsboy has built up a good business busi-ness in Belling papers, and ho says: "There's another, thing ' I train them to do, too, and that's to speak distinctly. No 'uxtry pape' ' qtutt goes with me, for I learned a long time ago that plali) spoaktng sells 'a lot more papers tlian loud shouting that nobody understands and so pays no atatentlon to It. I Insist upon my salesmen finding out the names of their regular customers whenever It is possible, and remembering them because I've found It pays to be ablo to say, 'Ilc-llo, Mr. Collins, here's H your r. I.,' (Post Intelligencer), or M How aro you, Mr. Ellis? Waht your H Evening Times?' I also Insist upon H their bolng polite oven under trying M circumstances; nnd I urge them to H practice making change whenever H they get a chance until they learn 1 to do it quickly and correctly. Noth- M lug annoys a customer more than f )p f vH to bo kept waiting for his change." 1 |
