You will have no difficulty in getting an

with you that a man doesn't know a
womanS kitchen needs, for the bulk of
home labor-saving devices are the inven-
tions of men. A buyer must be not only
judge of utility, but an appraiser of
values Department stores cater to vary

skilful buyers who will not buy, per-
haps, what you or | would like, but
the kind of goods which the ma jority of
store might find use for you in the
ktchenware department as a saleswo-
man, and from that position you may be
able TO work up to position as buyer.
At present, l fear you wouldn't have the
knowledge necessary to keep your as
sortment within prescribed financial
limit and your lack of experience would
very quickly spoil the whole department.
You would have no idea of what quanti-
ties or qualities of goods you should buy
You would probably order too much of
some goods, not enough of others-would
be left at the end of the season with a
lot of unsalabe goods, or would be
caught in the middle of season with a
