The following questions will
be asked: When your wife takes
a phone message, does she get
all the facts? How do you say
“no” to a businessman? Do you
diead writing a formal business
letter’ Do you put your large
purchases up for bids?
These questions and others
will be answered as Mrs. Euker
presents a demonstration using
a special telephone on how to
use the telephone correctly and
politely; when Mrs McLaughlin
illustrates some common mis
takes made in ordinary business
writing and gives some simple,
general rules to follow; and
when Mr Immel discusses how
the farmer can do a better job
of dealing with businessmen
With today’s farmer becoming
more and more of a business
man, he must be aware of the
importance of good business re
lations.
Local farmers, wives, and
farm businessmen are invited.
Refreshments will be served.
