Obviously the public relations programime of a. railway,â€"departâ€" ment store or any industry all have their different goals to. take into consideration,; but though the necesâ€" sities of various companies differ, they are all based on one ideal. A company has to discover in what field it can most naturally enhance its own goodwill, secondly. what ‘ In Canada our public is not quite so temperamental as in some other countries. At the same time this attitude to publicâ€"relations has a value for us in that it deliberately tries to make every contact with ‘ecustomers productive of a positive feeling of liking instead of indifâ€" ference. & i The interesting thing about this definition is I think,.the way it inâ€" sists upon the . importance. of achieving the good opinion of those that you do not do business with.

Carter, Publicity Departâ€" ment and Public Relations of the [Foronto General~ Trusts as. guest speaker at the Westonâ€"Mount Denâ€" nis Rotary last Thursday night deâ€" fined public relations as a rather clumsy phrase to cover all the dipâ€" lomatic and social relations of a business with the public as a whole, The speaker thenâ€"quoted a â€"phrase which he thought more interesting "Public Relations is your standing good ot bad with the crowds. who come to buy. and with the larger crowds who. don‘t. Tt includes your standing with your employees, past, present and prospective,: loyal vetâ€" crans, soreheads, unteachables, and youngsters who may ‘be your future executives.
