Mer- U 0 chandise, yes, that's the biggest factor. But X T service too, expert sales service—that's a big " U item, especially in buying apparel. " A • ' v A I am not content with meeting New York • . standards. I want to surpass them. So at con- Q ft siderable expense I secured the services of Mr. • • Frank E. Fehlman, President of Churchill-Hall, y Q Inc., of New York, to coach my sales force. For I • many years Mr. Fehlman was vice-president of U 0 The Cossard Corset Company of Chicago, and X • in that capacity trained hundreds of women to " 0 sell. His lectures oil salesmanship delivered re- a • cently to the Advertising Club of New York of j 0 which he is vice-president created a decided sen- g 1 sation. " . Mr. Fehlman gathered my force together in a ™ A v class and thoroughly grounded them in the prin- X • ciples of service to the customer as applied to J 0 women's wearing apparel. A X Color values and color harmonies; that was I one subject scientifically covered. The funda- 0 A mental laws were carefully explained. What is X V your complexion? When you enter my store " Q garments will be shown you which will harmon- A • ize with your individual coloring. i U Types of figures and how to drape them. 0 X There are 9 possible types, you are one of them. X " Rest assured that the line and contour of gar- 0 A ments you purchase here will be suited to your X ; figure. If you're inclined to be heavy we can J /) drape you to look more slender or vice versa. A X Space forbids further explanation. Mr. Fehl- • " man covered more than twenty phases of serv- Q X ice. My customers will profit by this training " from now on. .
