VOLUME 87 BOWMANVILLE, ONT., THURSDAY, OCTOBER l6th, 1941NUER4 Àu . m m-1 --- -- City Salesmen Will "Gyp' You SIf You Don't Watch Out Local Buyers Get Quality, Mauriée Breslin* Re- veals Why It lasSafest To Buy at Home - Bigger the Town, the Bigger the Trick - And I-e's Seen 'Em Ail! "The larger the town, the big- ger the tricks the high pressure salesman wil pull on bis custom- ens," says Maurice Beslin, mana- gem of Bawmanville's most di- vemsified lathing store. "Mo' ought ta know because he bas worked in (and "wamked") te seUing game in a score af stores ta the biggest cities on the con- tinent. But the happy corolary of that first statement la that "the custamer will get tee strightest deal in his own litthe home town.' That is the best, and only guaran- tee a buyer can have that be won't get "bhooked". Mr. Breslin ex. plataed why, as he gave a voca- tional talk at tee Lions Club Monday night in cbaracteristic peppy, terse manner. At,,the beginnlng of bis tallç with the eye-apening titie cf "The Seat of Youm Pants," Mi. Breslin sketched his amaztagly diversi- fled career. 111 had tee wander lust," he declared. Braught up an a faimn east o! Whitby, tee age af thiineen found "Our H-ero" selling papers on the street corner in Ta- onta.. He has been selling ever stace. After attending high school in Owen Sound where his father was in business he struck out for himseif by tee adventurous me- thod o! running away with a cir- cus. Six weeks later Dad caught up with hlm. But that marked the start of n long journey which has seemingly ended in Bowman- ville. With bis brother he went itt the sboe business in Toronto. T here be had a chance ta study different types of selling. The day-time trade was transient. Customers from tee country came once and went famevem and thee salesmen seived teem according- ly, but theeather type cf city trade was bandled ta give tee customer satisfaction and have him came back againi. On ta New York ... at Lord & Tayhor's swanky cloteing store on Fifth Avenue Mi. Breslin con- fessed be really learned bow ta seli. It was a "ritzy" store and the motto was that every custom- er must be soid. Confidentially Mi. Breslin evealed the high pressure details. After a peiod there be tired of cateritg ta high ciass trade, goiag ta a store wbere the cientele was in the opposite extreme. Engugtaghy he eated bis basis af rernunematian. It was $2.00 per week plus 50% on aven- changes - and the good salesmen eaiiy cleaný.id up! Next came a job in a clathtag store on Broadway. Then a posi- tian on Canai St. where every store la a cloteing store and the dapper gentleman standing out- side the door genthy pushes the prospect inside, fqr a considera- tion. Same In Toronto Returning ta Toronto with a rew idea or twa he continued in jusiness for a time. About this time he mamried and maved ta Chicago. Working.in "theehargest shoe store ta tee world," located there, he served customers in the "IWindy City" for no wages at ahi - BUT commission on a sale was 5% plus, plus, plus, and every- tbing workced out for tee best. Anoteer store be was in, sold only one price sboes-$5.85, but per- ladicaily they put on a great sale at greatly reduced pices-neg- lecting ta tell the customers the merchandise was also greatiy e- duced in quality.

Meeting War Needs - Shows Movies of Barrett Chute Development. Ontamio will- face a power shortage within the next few months, according to M. J. Mc- Henry, director of sales and priai- ity officer for the Ontario Hydro Electric Power Co0m mi s s ion. Speaking at the Rotary Club luncheon at the Balmoral Ilatel on Frlday, Mr. McHenry declared that restricted use of power for domestic consumption may be- came necessary this wintem owing ta expanding war mndustry ne- quirements, but although a cru- cial period is ahead no serious difficulties are anticipated. McHenry outlined some of the H.E.P.C.'s recent developments of waten power and the effect on the Eastern .5ystem of Ontario which supplies eiectric enemgy ta Bow- manville, a large user of power on this system. Though many eastern power developments have been acquhed there stili was a shortage of power and in order ta equalize the load in easterft and central Ontario the Eastern and Niagara Falls systems have been tied together.. Later the Georgian Bay System had been tied ta and added to this was powem from Shaw's Falls. Without ail of teese sources of Power tee war effort would be sadly lacktag. Even yet there is not sufficient power, he stated.
