EAGER Tons of rock and dirt must be excavated before a dia- mond is found. It is just as un- usual to find among thousands of salesmen that rarity among those who sell—the man who believes in the selling power of understatement. A coffee salesman startled the retail grocers of a city by beginning his sales talk with the statement, “This is the sec- | ond best brand of coffee on market.” Grocers | naturally asked, | best brand of cof- | fee?” to which | the salesman | would reply, “Each of my | many competi- | tors makes the | best brand and | they all will tell | you so.” Admit- | ting having the second best brand | evidently placed him in a position | where he was without competition | and his sales results proved it. | A large baking company has suc- | cessfully marketed a brand of bread | in markets long held by established competitors. The new bread was well advertised in local newspapers. Jut under instructions from a presi- dent who knew the power of under- selling, salesmen sold each grocer one or two loaves less than the store's normal demand. Grocers were soon telling afternoon customers, "I'm sorry we are all sold out of that bread.” It was not very long before storekeepers well as customers unconsciously thought of it as the fastest se brand and therefore the best breac Grocers unconsciously recomm ed it to customers and customers soon began demanding it of grocers and its success was assured. UP-TO-DATE ‘REVOLUTION’ late TT =Re could ‘be no more convincing way for the his- torian of the future to point out the high standards of living pre- vailing in this country than to contrast today's those who want to overthrow our institutions with the demands of the revolutionists of other eras in the world’s history. The French masses cried for bread and failing to get it brought on the French revolution. But when a pres- ent day advocate of revolution in this country recently made a speech he said: “Why should the citizens— at least 90 per cent of them-—be imprisoned behind the cruel bars of 3 demands of their grasp there are plenty of shoes, of clothes, refrigerators to which they are entitled?” From this point of view it is the salesmen who sell modern conven iences who are our most important national asset for the prevention of revolutions.
