Nobody knows more about the strong qualities of an establishment than the proprietor who oversees it. Other things being equal, nobody should be ab.'e to write more convinc ingly of the articles he of fers for sale. In a store where the employer sella goods side by side with his clerks It is rare that the employer will not b« the best salesman. The reason is simple. He knows the goods from A to Z. He probably has pur chased them." He knows his aims. His arguments carrj weight because they are convincing.
