IRISH CLERKS
They Have knack OF Advancing
AGAINST All Odds,

I asked one New York merchant
why his Irish clerks We're so superior
to many of the American clerks, and
he said: They are the most alert
salespeople in the world. 1t Is part of
their training. You never see an
Irish-trained salesman lounging at his
counter. If he has no customers he
will put in his time arranging his
stock or studying some new article
that has come in. When he waits on
a customer he makes her feel that his
principal task in life is to please her
and that she has conferred great
honor upon the establishment by call
ing"
Many OF the buyers and heads of
departments in the big department
stores are 1rishmen who have risen
from the counter. Here is typical
story which shows their method and
likewise their cleverness. A young
Irishman served his time in Belfast.
He came to this country when he was
is and got job as clerk in store
owned by his cousin In Newark, N. J..
Not long after this the cousin went
away on a trip and left the young
man in charge. He snooped around
the store, found a lot Of old stock
under the counter, dug 1t up and sold
1t out as bargains" When his cousin
came back he took vacation, but in
stead of going to a pleasure resort,
/. he crossed over to New York and
looked for position. The head of
the gentlemen's furnishing depart
ment of Broadway store said he
looked too young. "Give me chance"
said the Irishman. eff I don't sue
coed don't want any salary" After
one days service he was put on the
payroll.
One day he noticed an old man wan
dering around the store. He seemed
4 to be looking for someone. The young

change of venue as provided by law.
The president judge of said court
shall be selected as provided by law.
The number of judges in said court
may be by law increased from time
