TWO BOOTBLACKS AND BUSINESS.
A magazine writer tells the story of
two bootbiacks who were soliciting
trade on crowded thoroughfare one
Saturday afternoon.
The two boys had no regular stand.
Each had his box s1ung over a shout.
der. and they stood near the curbstone
crying their business to the passers-
| by.
But there was a difference in the
boys.
Each had his cry, composed of four
words, and never varied it.
The first boy cried out "Shine your
shoes herer'
The second boy solicited his custom
by shouting. Get your Sunday sinner
Note the difference?
The cry Of the first boy announced
the simple fact that he was in the
shoe shining business for any one who
should desire his services.
The second boys cry was more sig
nificant It was Saturday afternoon.
The hour was O'clock. The cry car
ried with it the fact that tomorrow was
Sunday and 1t probably would be a
pleasant day; that he (the bootblackl
knew an extra shine was needed: that
ne who went to church or walked in
the parks on the morrow owed 1t to his
self respect to present a good appear
ance, and, lastly, that he was there to
do the business.
DO you see why the second bow got
the larger share Of the business?
He had Imagination. He linked facts
together. He conveyed suggestions.
His cry told all the other boy said
and more
There Is in the incident an object
lesson in the problem of modern bust
ness.
1magination,in business is money.
The successful merchant uses it. He
projects his Imagination in such a
way as to reach the mind of his ems
toners and by suggestion causes them
to buy his wares.
The inventor can do nothing without
imagination, nor the promoter, nor the
engineer, nor the architect or builder.
The professional man must have i'm
agination. Even the farmer or breed
er needs it.
And yet
Occasionally you hear of a parent
who does not want his child to read
fairy stories or believe in Santa Claus.
He Is practical man himself. and he
wants his children taught practical
things. etc.
He fails to see the large place occu-
pied by the imagination.
The man who is without imagination
misses much Of the pleasure in life.
He dreams no dreams. Unseen things |
Of beauty are not for him. Besides
He misses big asset in business.
