On Tuesday night of last week, the Northwestern mitroaddiatritmtasdatmaliprintedaheettoitapa- trons on the evening “rush hour" trains. This little sheet of paper represented an appreciation of one of the finer points of good public relations-an appre- ciation which has been too frequently absent during the past few years in the attitude of various public services toward their customers. It read as follows: TO OUR SUBURBAN PATRONS- 'Passenger Traffic Manager We wonder if Mr. Duval, or perhaps one of his assistants, wasn't applying a lesson learned from reading' Mark Twain's HUCKL1i1BERRY FINN. 0 GOOD PUBLIC RELATIONS In that memorable book, Mark Twain tells about a funeral that was temporarily brought to a stand- still by the frenzied barking of a dog in the basement. The undertaker (that was in B.M.-Before moni- cians) disappeared, and shortly, the dog gave one last yelp and was quiet. When the undertaker re- appeared, he said, in a stage whisper audible to all at the funeiWNre had a rat!" _ ' Mark commented that the undertaker knew that the people were "naturally eurious," wanted to know what the racket was all about, and that "there wasn’t a better-liked man in town than that undertaken" Well, obviously, that undertaker wanted to be well-liked-for business reasons, if for none other, and he knew that one way to make people like you is to let them know what? going on. " Just as obviously, Mi. Duval wants his passeng- ers to like the Northwestern. He realized that all his customers were “naturally eurioua" as to why the trains were crawling along. He satisfied their curio- sity. That's good public relations. It might well be adopted by all organizations that serve the public-- that is, if they think it’s worthwhile to be liked.
