Salesmanship is probably the
most important factor in the life
of a nation, of a business, and Of
an individual. 1t may be described
as the ability to present an idea,
a product, or a service, accurately,
attractively and convincingly.
Therefore, the life salesman has
a unique position in modern life.
In business he is the man who
stands between our wealth of re-
sources.
Statesmen Can Be Made"
l have seen so many failures
among men who seemed to have
everything they required for sue
cess, and so many successes among
those who did not appear to have
anything that would help them,
that there is no doubt in my mind
but that the life insurance sales
man can be MADE and that any
man endowed with ordinary COM
mon sense and an earnest desire
to put it to work can make of him
self a successful life insurance
salesman.
In my opinion the greatest asset
a life insurance salesman can have
is enthusiasm. Enthusiasm is con-
tagious. All of us are prospective
buyers. and all Of us have been
persuaded 10 listen to, and even
tually TO buy. Some salesman whose
enthusiasm for his proposition con-
WINGED us that it must be every
thing he said it was and therefore
worth having. The enthusiasm of a
salesman makes his insurance more
attractive 10 US

will do this, he will be agreeably

known to every life insurance sales
man. I have not said anything new.
There is no mystery about success
in selling life insurance. It is simply
a matter Of dealing with oneself
fairly and fearlessly. Critical self
ANALYSIS and periodic check up show
the things that should be done and
the things that should not be done.
They help salesman do a better
lob.

Air Mail and Feeder Lines

Main air route of Alaska along which regular airmail service has been established and expect cd new links in this chain of maj or routes, derive their business not alone from larger or hub cit ies which they serve.
 A vast portion of the airmail and other traffic over the main routes is due to the outlying re gions. To and from these small CT communities flows the busi- ness that is the life blood of the main arteries.
 Officials of the Civil Aeronaut ics Authority, the postal depart ment and other branches of the public service now striving to work out a solution for AlaSka's aviation and mail problems will find much of thoughtful sugges- ton in the following editorial from the New York Times:
 There IS much of interest in the plan for the establishment of a comprehensive airline feeder system throughout the United States, which has been submitt- ed to the Civil Aeronautics Au- thority and the Postoffice Depart ment by Richard C. du Pont. MT duPont, known for his skill as a soaring pilot and his diversified interest in aviation, is president of All American Aviation, Inc, which is conducted with success on interesting daily operation on two air-mail routes lying in Pen nsylvania, West Virginia, Ohio and Delaware.
 These routes are operated by the pickup and drop-sack meth cd, in which sacks of mail are de tached by the plane in flight from line suspended between poles. Already the little planes Of the system fly 1,540 miles daily, make 75 pickups and. serve 59 communities.

 Gentlemen
 The time is approaching for taking the regular Decennial Cen sus in Alaska. It is the purpose of the government to secure a collection of complete and accur ate data on population, agricul- ture, manufactures, and distribu tion, in order to enable the Blu reau of the Census to compile comprehensive and reliable in- formation as to the present social and economic status of the Terri tory.
 Alaska has made much pro- gress during the past decade and everyone is interested in the re suit of the census. Publicity will of great help in securing an ac- curate account The census is to be taken as of October l, 1889 and enumerators are now being appointed. To insure the accur- acy of the staticstics gathered, the Bureau of the Census needs the hearty cooperation of every person in the Territory, and in this respect the newspapers, Chambers of Commerce, trade, fraternal, social, and religious or ganization can be of great help.
 Your cooperation vii be great ly appreciated.
 Yours very truly,

The Nome nugget., 1939-10-02

Schedules have been maintain ed under adverse weather, and an average speed of 100 miles an hour IS made in spite of con- tacts at frquencies of from five to 9 miles. The smallest com munity on the routes, Glenville, w Va, has a daily air-mail dis patch of between two and four pounds, which. on a percapita basis. exceeds that of the largest air center in the United States.
 Based upon this experience, MT du Pont proposes the creation of a Natioanal network of feed CT lines so as to extend the bene- fits of air-mail service, to com munities without airports as well as those with them, and to spread much more widely the ad vantages of the swift transport ation of mail.
 It IS suggested, after satisfac- tory experiment, that small dual engined airplanes could even per form passenger service in connec ton with the airmail pickup, loading and discharging their passengers at the relatively wid ely spaced points at which land ings are made.
 Persons living in off-line points not served by the great airport systems would thus enjoy the time-saving elements of air trav el to an extent only slightly less than those in the present route cities.
 MT du Fonts suggestion is a bold approach to a real problem. Ii certainly is worthy of most careful examination by the agen ies concerned with civil aero nautics.
