Moral From
World of
Business
Principles Applied
To Saving a Store
Valuable to All
BY BETSY CASWELL.
Woman's Editor.

In the New York Times recently
read the account of the resignation
Of Mrs. Hortense M. Odlum from
the presidency of the store of Bon
wit Teller, Inc, one of New York S
most noted Fifth Avenue shops. Mrs.
Odlum, after studying the operation
Of the store for two years from the
consumers angle, assumed the
presidency in the depression in 1884
when each day brought the prob
lem of whether the store could keep
on or would have to close its doors
forever. During Mrs. Odlum'S six
years of management the store
tripled its sales volume from So 500
600 to more than $10000,0 900. Now
she is resigning because she says
she has never been a business
woman and never wanted to be one"
and that she feels the store can
carry on successfully without her
direct influence.
What has impressed me greatly,
and moved me to mention this mat
ter here, is that Mrs. Odlum brought
the store from the depths to the
heights through the application of
her, own principles-principles that
were not developed by high-pressure
business training. but by common
sense and a keen feeling for the
human integer.
According to her, she had always
believed that kindness. conSidera-
ton for customers and employees
alike, would create a store that
women would enjoy shopping in.
This may sound like a general"
theory that one would naturally ex-
pect Of an organization in business
but, unfortunately, it is too often
lacking in practice. Mrs. Odlum fol-
lowed out her principles to the
smallest detail-no part of the
setup was too insignificant to be
considered and checked. She invited
customers to tea, to hear their COM
plants, and put in motion methods
to remedy them: she established a
consumers advisory committee to
keep her posted on every phase of
the organization. 1t might be said
that she included efficiency plus"
along with her other principles. in
making the business prosper beyond
all hopes.
1t seems to me that herein lies a
lesson for all of us. Both those who
serve and are served should remem-
Der that the good d-fashioned
virtues are not only still of value
but they have even proved their
worth in the hard-boiled business
world, where their rating is set down
In dollars and cents. Surely, then,
they will pay untold dividends in
friendship, good feeling and happi-
ness to those of us in any walk of
life
There's no use trying to run
home, a business a school or col
lege career, or keep job through
slipshod methods. Getting on in life
means getting on with ones fellow
man, and Mrs. Odlum has supplied
a perfect recipe for that. If she
could put it across in the form of
q huge merchandising organization,
surely We individuals should be able
to achieve the same success in our
own little lives and interests.
It's worth thought or two.

REESE THEATRE NOTES

Never has the management Of the
Reese Theatre been compIimerited
50 much since the installation Of the
new super power projection equip
ment. Many patrons have stopped
at the box Office and marveled al

elimination OF eye strain and the
greater definition that is achieved
BY a pure blue white light. Coupled
with the finest sound system on the
Eastern Shore, Reese Theatre pa
irons get that extra enjoyment at no
extra cost.
