Members Travel To Revolution Mills Tuesday, November 15, the mem bers of the Distributive Education Club went on a field trip to Revo lution Mills after a dutch supper at the Mayfair Cafeteria at 6 p. m. This trip, which concluded their study on textiles, was only one of many such trips that are made each year by the D.E. organization. The members of the D. E. class es are engaged in selling in their part-time -jobs. Many reminders are posted in the class room to keep the student aware of his re sponsibility. One of the charts is entitled “Time For Everything.” Its con. tents read: “Take time to dream— it is hitching your wagon to a star; take time to love and be loved—it is the privilege of the gods; take time to look around— it is too short a day to be selfish; Silver Stars Received By 42 Honor Students Forty-two members of Senior High have been listed as making the regplar or special honor roll seven consecutive times.

Another illustration says, “Here are five little words that have helped me through life—they are: ‘Pardn me,’ ‘Thank you,’ and ‘Please.’ ” The ten commandments of good business are “A customer is the most important person in any bus iness; A customer is not dependent on us—we are dependent on him; a customer is not an interruption of our work—he is the purpose of it; a customer does us a favor when he calls— we are_ not doing him a favor by serving him; a customer is a part of our business—not an outsider; a customer is not a cold statistic—he is a flesh-and-blood human being with feelings and emotions like our own; and a cus tomer is not someone to argue or match wits with.” ^ The definitions of Courtesy are illustrated in a poster entitled, “Capture Your Customer’s Inter est.” Another chart describing personality is labeled, “Build Your Sales.” Members of the Distributive Ed ucation classes are: Bruce Ammons, Paddy Bailey, Frank Cockman, Ellen Cole, Hallie Collins, Eldridge Greeson, Louise Gurkin, Jan Gwyn, Joe Herdon, Sherlon Hepler, Don Hicks, Alfred Hill, David Hill, Sue Kimei, Margaret King, Verilea Kivett, Barbara Lanning, Marvin Latta, Louela McCullock, Billy Matherly, Mary Ann Matherly, Shelvie Nabors, Dean Patterson, Carol Reece, Nona Routh, John 1 : - - Russell, Betty Simmons, J.

Mrs. Margaret Hadden is the D.E. Co-ordinator. Holiday Sales Classes Resumed By Hadden “How do we figure sales tax?” “Is this suit all right to wear?” “How do we write our sales tickets correctly?” These are just a few of the questions that were answered in the Christmas sales classes which were taught for those students de siring to work On week-ends and during the holidays. Mrs. Mar garet G. Hadden, coordinator of Distributive Education, instructed the classes. The sales classes included in structions On good grooming, store manners, how to serve .the custo mer, merchandise information, how to make change and figure sales tax. To help with the instructions, flash cards, film strips, sales dem onstrations, skits, and films were used. Each year the D. E. coordinator teaches the sales classes to help both the pupils and the stores. “GHS students who work in busi ness establishments are the best advertisement the school has to business,” remarks Mrs. Hadden. Stores have repeatedly urged that students who want to work enroll in these classes because it saves them considerable time in training the young employees.
