Selling merchandise successfully year after year seldom resultsâ€"from â€" the use of ($ ‘and dried methods, but by an appeal to the emotions and =éeel- ings. Tnve{inz salesmen to bring in satisfactory results these days must sell to each individual, making a "sellâ€" ing talk" to ]\him based on the men‘s character, traits, and prejudices. The cld days of learning to sell goods by working in the wholesale house from door boy up to salesman may not be gcne hy they are rapidly disappearâ€" ing. All these reflections wer; made by Prof, A. J; Snow of Northwestern university in a talk on "The Applicaâ€" tion cf Psychology in Business." . po* ‘Old Methods Pass f _ "It. has been discovered th;lt it is ‘impossible to make a great deal of ; headway in the selling field by}he use | of a ¢cut and dried method or formula leverywhere_md for all time," said Dr. Snow. "We must regard each buyer as an individual and appeal to ihi‘ desires, wants, ideals,. emotions iemd feelings. Psychologists, in anâ€" | alysing sales, have disccverfl“that men do not sell merchandise because | of an appeal to the reason of thei | buyer ‘but, mfa:t of the time, because | of an appeal to his emotions and feelâ€" ings. They have discovered that in most transactions the appeal which actually sells the merchandise is not tnecessarily a logical one but it may be an insignificant point which does ithe trick. ‘ It may be an appeal to tradition, custom, prejudice, love for family, self admiration, jealousy, and such as that. The salesman who uses ‘sales talks‘ in his attempt to sell, beâ€" cause they are convincing to him, has profited little by modern psychology. § Individuals Approach "Psychologists interested in the sales situation point out the imporâ€" tance of approaching each Wui as an individual studying him before the l interview and during the interyiew in order that the.appeal which is made lby ‘the salesman should refl the beliefs and convictions of the buyer and of the salesman. | The accidents due to the instability of Yellow Cab drivers have been reâ€" duced apprecinbly month by month since January. â€" * ~*Finally, sales phychology ::l callâ€" ed attention to,the necessity of satisâ€" fying the customer, or actually méetâ€" ing his needs and demands, of perâ€" forming a service with the clo?ing of each sale." > ‘ SALESMANSHIP HAS â€" PSYCHOLOGICAL SIDE OLD METHOD INADEQUATE Seller Must Study Character RUG CLEANING & CURTAIN DRY CLEANING & DYEING â€"â€" ., BSTRETCHING J THE RELIABLE LAUNDRY _‘ PHONES 178â€"179 _)â€" and ‘Peculiarities of.

Athens has no large river or lake within a (distance of 100 miles, so the Americans will create a lake, on the field of Marathon, by means of a dam several hundred feet in height. : This lake, during the brief wintry rainy season, must inpa?d sufficient water to supply Athens for the remainder of the year. 2 Agitation for a new Water supply ‘was brought aboqtb:Frgely through the medical reports of the Near East Relief, which informed the governâ€" ment that this was the only means of preventing‘ serious . epidemics #nd heavy loss of life among the Kalfâ€"Inilâ€" lion refugees doncentrated in the*disâ€" triet. ; 2t ol For ten years the 5cmrrt drawbiack of the Greek caplts(lujlu been lack of water.
