In a recent interview, w. T.
Grant, founder of the chain of 48O
stores which bears his name, and,
at present, chairman Of the board
of directors, summed up his phil6-
sophy of selling with How
much can we GIVE the customer
rather. than how much can we
get from her" This basic philO-
sophy set the policy of his first
store in Lynn, Massachusetts, in
1906, and has been a guiding prin-
ciple through the years of the
chains growth. 1t is the reason
why Grants is known for Values
from coast-tO-coast, and it will be
the policy of the new Dover store,
opening on May %.
Mr.. Grant firmly believes that
better customer service stems from
friendly relations of sales people
with customers and that the sales
person can and should give valu-
able advice to those who guide COM
pany policy He is particularly well
known for giving his salespeople
responsibility, thus building team
work and family feeling" within
the organization. Today, he is more
than willing to give credit to the
13 or IA girls, who. he says, made
business possible" il. that first store
in Lynn, Massachusetts. Without
their help and enthusiasm, he de-
clares he never would have beer
able to attain the. customer lOyalt!

which led him to expand that store
into the present chain.
In the beginning, Mr.. Grant him
self worked closely with the sales
girls, managed the store, and did
all the buying. Much of his mer-
chandise was women's clothes
an extremely complicated array in
those days-and he says, I'D real
ly get the dickens from the girls
if / bought the wrong thing"
In those days, the Grant store
could outfit a customer from head
to foot at prices that were amaz-
ing to the wage earners and their
families and that seem almost in
credible today in view of our high
er prices Imagine getting such
things as slippers, slips, silk stock
ings and lace curtains for just 25c!
Mr.. Grants value-giving policy
soon became famous and people
began to ask him to establish
stores in other communities. His
second store was opened in Water
bury, Connecticut in 1908. The
opening was a gala affair, with a
brass band playing, sc for ice
cream sundaes at the shiny new
fountain, wash boilers, sample lace
curtains for Csc, Christmas candy
making machine and candy pulling
machines. The success of this
store led to another at Bridgeport
Connecticut, and, one by one, many
more from coast to coast.
With the growth of the chain
came changes in the items sold in
the stores. The famous Variety anC
Women's Wear Lines were broaden
ed, and Mems and Boys Wear, In
f2nts' and Children's Wear, HOm'
Furnishings and Housewares wer'
added. The larger Grant stores nov
carry practically everything TO
the home and family.
Mr.. Grant still takes an activ
part in forming company policy
He travels a good deal and is wei
1 known to employees as we'll as ex
ecutives and stockholders of tn
company. He looks forward to
bright future for Grants know

Official price lists show that there are eighteen
different models of American motor cars, pro
duced by five separate automOtive manufac-
turers, which actually cost more than the low
est-priced Cadillac-when similarly equipped.
If you find this difficult to believe-then
you're in good company!
For the record also shows that, during the
past few years, literally hundreds of thousands
of motorists have taken title to these costlier
models. And there can be little doubt that
many of them did SO simply because they
failed to realize how relatively modest the cost
of a Cadillac can be.

ANSWER: During the Rosh
Hashonah services there are a
number of prayers and hymns
that beseech the Lord for mercy
and some which glorify him. The
recital of the most important of
these is accompanied by the
opening of the ark. This signifies
a desire to be close with the
Creator as well as the fact that
we declare ourselves at His
mercy.

In A Lighter Vein
By Nathan Ziprin

It has been said that if the
statesmen declared a reasonably
long moratorium on talk, the
world might find sufficient time
to pause and contemplate its fut-
ure and thus perhaps save itself
from impending catastrophe.
Since there is no way of meaSur-
ing the extent to which editorial
writing has contributed to world
confusion, it is questionable
whether the imposition of silence
on the editorial pen would serve
the same purpose.
Nevertheless the idea of a
moratorium has its appeal. If it
served no other purpose, it would
at least offer the average man
the opportunity to find out whe-
Their he still can think independ-
emily or whether he must be
prodded from without into form
ing points of view.
If we were really courageous,
we might be tempted to take
vacation from editorial writing
for several weeks and leave the
space reserved for that medium
for other and lighter material.
We fear, however, that c h a
revolutionary deviation might
create a precedent of great de-
light to the reader and the road
back might prove quite chal-
longing.
Having taken you into conf
dence, we must confess that we
really like our weekly task of
making editorial comment, and
we hope that if there ever is a
movement to temporarily silence
the glib takers, we of the pen
will never be encompassed by it.

prayers were recited, but to no
avail. Finally, the great Rabbi
Akiba came forth and proclaimed
"Our Father, Our King we have
no King beside Thee-Our Fa-
Their, Our King have pity upon
us for Thy sake" Immediately
the rains came. 1t seems, accord
ing to some, that Rabbi Akiba
was the author of this series OF
petitions. Whatever the case may
be, this series has always been
used on the High Holidays, as
well as on fast days, to indicate
that this simple series where the
Lord is looked upon as Father
and King, and asked for mercy;
has been a successful formula for
PRAYER in time of emergency.

Doctors Recommend
 Skull X-Rays For Boxers
AP Newsfeatures


 CINCINNATI - Are the skull bones of one out of 25 boxers too thin for fighting?
 This one-in- twenty five Is the ratio found at the University of Cincinnati in the first X-ray study of boxers skulls. The rays showed the density of bones in the head. All but two were normal.
 One of the pair had bones somewhat thinner than average but was approved for boxing be- cause he was in the featherWeight class. It was thought that blows hitting him would be lighter be- cause of this class.
 The other man was ruled out because the front bone of his head was unusually thin. The other bones were normally thick.
 This study was started by Dr. Laurence B. ChenoWeth, director of the University's student health. He suggests that doctors get K rays of skulls of boys who want to box and in cases where skull bones are not normal, recommend strongly against this sport.
