NORTHWESTERN HIGH
cooRDINAToR ATTENDS
SALES CLINIC

James L. Cherry, coordinator
of Evening High School, Trade
and Business Schools, was pres
ent in one of the most educa-
tional meetings last March 90
the first series of Sales Clinics
sponsored by the Sales Advisory
Committee of the Greater Mi
ami Urban League, 395 NV lst st.
The league realizes that there
are unlimited sales opportunities
that offer year-round employ
ment for part-time and full-time
workers for qualified statesmen.
It became interested in selling
when many companies requested
qualified Negro statesmen and
found that only a few were
available. The Sales Clinic, in
all probability, encouraged Ne
gro adults to explore the desir-
ability of selling as career and
assisted in the development of
others who are actively selling.
The following community lead
erS aided greatly in the effective
ness of the Clinic, along with
many CONSTANTS from well
known business firms: H. Daniel
Lang, executive director Greater
Miami Urgan League; Frank ".
Wilkerson, industrial secretary
Miami Urban League; Melvin r,
JACKSON, general chairman Sales
Advisory Committee; and Rev.
Edward T. Graham, chairman In
dustrial Relations Committee.

PERSONAL TO PARENTS

Dear Parents:
This reporter saw on Easter
Sunday children who looked like
beautiful flowers. Of course, this
incurred many hours of hard
work and sacrifice to accomplish.
An observation was made which
inspired this thought - Are you
training the children to take care
of the nice things you buy them?
One little girl, a perfect vision
of loneliness in white organZa
with all of the accessories, was
racing down the street on a bike
and the sleeve of her new dress
almost ripped out.
Every day our office is swamp
ed with sweaters, coats, note
books and ribbons. The children
never inquire for them and we
have to send them around to
find the owners. Don't you miss
these things and inquire for
them?
One of the most valuable
habits a person need possess is
thrift. II is sinful to be deliber-
ately wasteful. Please help us to
develop this important character
trait.
