SALES METHODS

Likening the part which modern
newspaper advertising plays in SELL
ing to the artillery preparation the
fore modern infantry charge, w. O.
Rutherford, general sales manager Of
the Goodrich Rubber company, makes
very forceful illustration. lie says,
in recent issue of Printers Ink:
II sometimes liken the part which
advertising plays in selling to the
purpose of the long-range artillery
fire in the present war. The artli-
lery makes ready the wary for and
increases the chances or success for
the infantry charge, which is relied
upon to actually capture the enemy's
position.
without the artillery and its
curtain of fire, an infantry charge
would many times be simply waste
Of life; so in selling goods-to send
an army of statesmen into the field
which has never had the big shells
and shrapnel of an advertising cam
paign launcred at it's a waste of
time, effort and money.
"The big, broad idea that every
salesman must get, to qualify as a
real business builder, is the idea of
selling the house which he repre-
sents.
This idea of selling the house has
always seemed to me to be the real
ly big side of craftsmanship. One of
the most important and at the same
time difficult duties of the sales
manager is to sell this idea to his
organization. In other words, con-
cince them that the amount of to-
days sales is not the most important
feature of their work. The sales or
ganization of any firm controls very
largely the growth and advancement
of a business, and these items de-
pend indefinitely more upon the way
sale is made than upon the mere
fact of the sale being made, or on
its amount.
'The trend of modern business is
away from narrow-minded antagon-
ism and distrust and towards con-
structive effort on our own Denaif,
conscious Of the fact that the great
majority of people are honest and
based on an intelligent appreciation
of competition, but with a knowledge
that our business depends upon how

1t looks to the other fellow and not
on the looks of our competitors bust
ness.
THE craftsmanship that counts Is
the craftsmanship that sells the house
as an institution.
Take for instance the Goodrich
company, which I have the honor to
represent. Do we spend a million
dollars and more each year in adver-
Using merely to boost the sale of our
products? We do not. That may be
the motive behind our efforts, but the
big idea in our advertising campaign
is to sell to the world our name as
signifying an institution which makes
all kinds of rubber goods. besides
Goodrich black tread tires, and sells
them everywhere.

THAT is the idea we strive to de-
velop in our salesmen's minds-that
they may become something more

Two bridges of the d. G. r. G.

the Price canyon and one bridge OF
the Salt Lake Route was hard hit
near Caliente, New, dispatches said
last night.
Because a large force of men had

Castle Gate were begun almost i'm

One structure was placed in working
order within five hours, while the
other will probably be ready for use
today.
The bridge at Caliente gave way
shortly after train No. 2, which had
arrived in Salt Lake yesterday, had
crossed. Later trains were warned

1t is not our purpose to cast any
reflection upon the integrity Of any
member OF the local draft exemption
board, which has been authorized to
pass upon the exemption claims OF
young men in the country who come
under the draft, but our attention
has been called on numerous occas-
ions to the fact that all three mem
bers OF the board are Of one politi-
cal party. There is no one small
enough to think that this is a politi-
cal war. We are engaged in a non
partisan war, a war that all liberty
loving citizens believes is just, a war
that all expect to join both brain and
Drawn and ultimately come out vic
torious against our national enemies.
This being the case. it would seem,
perhaps, TO a good many that all ear
marks of partisanship should be for
removed. Non-partisan exemption
boards would undoubtedly bring more
universal satisfaction.

70 N. Third Street
SchIeisner Building

Wash yourself on the inside before
breakfast like you do on the outside.
This Is vastly more important because
the skin pores do not absorb impuri-
ties into the blood, causing illness,
while the bowel pores do.
For every ounce of food and drink
taken into the stomach, nearly an
ounce of waste material must be
carried out of the body. If this waste
material is not eliminated day by day
1t quickly ferments and generates
poisons, gases and toxins which are
absorbed or sucked into the blood
stream, through the lymph ducts
which should suck only nourishment
to sustain the body.
A splendid health measure is to
drink, before breakfast each day, a
glass of real hot water with a tea
spoonful of limestone phosphate in 1t,
which is a harmless way to wash
these poisons, gases and toxins from
the stomach, liver, kidneys and
bowels; thus cleansing, sweetening
and freshening the entire ailmentary
canal before putting more food into
the stomach.
A quarter pound of limestone phos-
phate costs but very little at the drug
store but is sufficient to make anyone
an enthusiast on inside bathing. Men
and women who are accustomed to
wake up with a duh, aching head or
have furred tongue, bad taste, nasty
breath, sallow complexion, others who
have bilious attacks. acid stomach or
constipation are assured of pro-
nounced improvement in both health
and appearance shortly.
