We Like to Sell Stamps! Milk of Magnesia Tooth Paste When I was new to the drug store business some 200 years ago, 'nothing pained me more than to . have to deal out stamps and postal cards to customers who bought nothing tJSt. A little old-fashioned druggist in Sharon, Pa., taught me different and I thank him for the lesson. Here was his philosophy: "A Drug Store MUST have TRAFFIC PAST THE COUNTERS in order to be a real success in its community. To get it, the proprietor many times will give away roHs, lilies, prize packages and occasionally REAL MONEY! To me, that's a very foolish, expensive method-foolish because it fools no one and expensive because "give aways" cost real money. The REAL way to get this "traffic" is to do the LITTLE 'T HINGS, perform the HOMELY COURTESY and DO IT EVERY DAY of the year! "Make change" for customers, sell them stamps, street car checks, give them plenty of telephone service, a free directory, gossip about town, direction to other places-everything an information bureall would do. AND DO IT BECAUSE YOU LIKE IT! That's what makes "TRAFFIC!" And that's US folks here in ·these shops! I hope we lick Uncle Sam on the stamp business. wear out a bearing on the telephone, jam the cash register "making change!' and get hoarse giving out information! -Gene.
