The first of these and perhaps the most important is the necessity for “putting yourself in step with your prospect.*' A great sales manager used to illustrate it in this way: “When you want to get aboard a street car which is al ready in motion, you don't run at it from right angles and iry to make the platform in one wild leap/' he would say. “If you do, you are likely to find yourself on the floor. No. You run along beside the car, increasing your pace until you are moving just as rapidly as it is moving and in ihe same direction. Then you step aboard easily, without danger or jolt. “The minds of busy men are in motion," he would continue. “They are engaged with something very differ ent from the thought you have to .present. You can't jump directly at them and expect to make an effective landing. You must put yourself in the other man's place; try to imagine what he is thinking; let your first remark he in line with his thoughts; follow it by another with which you know he will easily agree. “Thus, gradually, your two minds reach a point where they can join without conflict. You encourage him to say *yes' and ‘yes* and ‘that’s right* and ‘I've noticed that my self/ until he says the final ‘yes' which is your favorable decision.” Jesus taught all this without ever teaching it. Every one of his conversations, every contact between his mind and others, is worthy of the attentive study of any sales manager. Passing along the shores of a lake one day, he saw two of the men whom he wanted as disciples. Their minds were in motion; their hands were busy with their nets; their conversation was about conditions in the fishing trade, and the prospects of a good market for the day’s catch. To have broken in on such thinking with the of fer of employment as preachers of a new religion would have been to confuse them and invite a certain rebuff. What was Jesus’ approach? “Come with me,” he said, “and I will make you fish ers of men.” Fishers . . . that was a word they could understand . . . fishers of men . . . that was a new idea . . . what was he driving at . . . fishers of men ... it sounded interesting . . . well, what is it, anyway? They listened. They were convinced. They said yes and they went with Him. vrsonai Miss Lorraine Leard left Sunday to spend several weeks v/ith rela tives in Rock Hill and Charlotte. Mr. W. N.

Long, which will be at the Carolina Theatre, Greenwood, S. C., Monday and Tuesday, March 20th-21st. The film, based on the life of a Japanese Geisha girl, deals with her love for an American Naval officer. Despite the difference in race and custom, they are married and live happily for several months. Their marriage is inter rupted, however, when the Ameri can is forced to return home. Mad ame Butterfly waits and prays for his return to Japan. He eventual ly comes back, but under entirely changed circumstances, to find her still waiting. Then ensues a tend er scene with an unusual twist which brings the film to a highly dramatic conclusion. Sylvia Sidney, star of “American Tragedy” and “Ladies of the Big House,” has the title role. Cary Grant, best known for his recent performance in “Blonde Venus” is the naval officer. The W. M. S. of the local Baptist church observed the special week of prayer for home missions with a service each day during the past week through Friday afternoon. The subject of the program used | was “For Our Countrymen’s Sal vation,” and splendid attendance was noted at each of the five serv ices. Monday afternoon the meet ing was held at the home of Mrs Jamie Sanders, Tuesday afternoon at Mrs. J. W. Furqueron’s and Thursday afternoon at the home of Mrs. F. C. McCain. The thirty- five members and a few visitors present enjoyed a rare treat when Mrs. D. C. Talbert and Miss Cath erine Harris of the Troy Society addressed the audience on the work of the Home Mission Board. Miss Harris has served with the Home Mission Board in Richmond, Va for the past eight years and wa able to give a most inspiring as well as instructive talk out of her own personal experiences. Mrs. J P. Rush also took part in the pro gram and Mrs. C. H. Huguley was leader of the service. A play “At Home,” was at the church Wednesday night and Fri day afternoon was given over to the junior organizations. A splen did offering for home missions was taken at the service Wednes day night which took the place of the regular mid-week prayer serv ice.
