young clover fields can be burned when
the ground Is frozen hard without in

with their shelter removed it seems
probable that alternate freezing and

on the advertising done by your store?
Probably you never gave the matter
much thought and would be surprised
to know that 1t Is of great Importance
to you. OF course you know that your
success depends In great measure on
the amount Of your sales and, too, that
the success Of the store depends on
the sales Of its clerks
Advertisements are written, printed
and distributed to increase sales, but
they cannot be fully effective without
your cooperation. And as you help
the advertising it will help you to
make more sales. to increase your
value to your employer.
Call the attention of probable Gus
toners to the advertised articles. You
can sell things that are advertised in
less time and with less effort than
other goods and have spare time to
devote to other customers and make
other sales.
Do this for your own sake as meth

by your worth. For tho stores sake
call attention to goods advertised in
other departments.

it directly concerns you or not. You
