Atlanta, Ga, April 26.--''The av-

must train his salespeople to do their

Stores, New York, an Iorga nization
with annual sales of $120, 600 900.
AT the Forthcoming annual con-
vention of the Associated Advertls-
ing clubs, here, Jtne3a r. to Ii, MT.
Freeman will discuss the necessity
for thorough selling service on the
part of salespeople, to produce Big
ger results from advertising. His
subject isl Making, Salespeople Think
in Adver Using Terms 49,
Mr.. Freeman's present work isithe
direction and development of retail
stores-large and small-whose an
nual sales range all the way from a
few hundred Thousand up to several
millions, and his experience bears, out
his contention that most of the So
called educational" work done by
the store proprietor, is along the line
of sales slips and routine operations,
and does not take into account the
fundamentals of selling.

man, in explaining his Atlanta sub
ject further, stake the woman who
reads about your special sale on pom

buy four yards for a dress"
-Four yards, did you say? your
win ask, $40 please. y
And your advertisement has made a
sale of four yards. ~s..+..
''But, with little training on your
part, this saleswoman might have
sold forty yards instead Of four, had
she suggested to this woman, Have
you ever used pongee for overdrapes
and portiers?. It is really very ef-
fective, and is used that way a great
deal now. You know, it can be laun-
dered ever so often, and still look
like new.
+. "Your saleswoman learns more
than to make bigger sale--she finds
how to develop her job into one of
real personal service" Mr.. Free
mans talk will be full of dollars-a nd
cents ideas to the merchant who
wants to know how to increase re-
suits of his advertising, and this ad-
dress is typical of the practical, bust

Travelled Alone.
Mrs. Forbes, wearing the native

venture. She Joined native caravan
and, riding a camel, finally crossed
the Egyptian frontiers and reached the
sacred oasis city where only one Eu-
rOpean-an explorer of 40 years ago
has ever been before. Here she was
well received by the tribesmen and
given safeguard back to civilization,
but throughout the journey she was
surrounded by hostile natives who
would have killed her had they known
that she was white woman.
The start Of the trip was made from
Benghazi, the Mediterranean end Of
the ancient caravan route from the
central Sudan across the Libyan
desert. She had previously arranged
for form Of passport from the Senus-
81, but this was Of little value, as the
tribes through which she passed did
not recognize their sovereignty. Spies
surrounded the caravan and at the
sacred city Of Tai the entlret party
was placed under arrest and thrown
into a native prison. After great diS
ficulty they were released and allowed
to proceed.

At the osases of Kufra the chiefs
welcomed Mrs. Forbes and told her of
their plans for political power. On
the return journey she again had trou-
