At the banquet of Mound City Coun icll No. 207, United Commerclhl Trav elers of St. Louis, held at the Plant r's Hotel, September 28th, some vry inter estmg - ana neiprui addresses were heard, Among others who spoke on topics -of Interest, waa Bryon W. Orr, ecretary of the Associated Advertising "uiuds or America. As Mr. Orr 're. marked, advertising and salesmanship are so blended that' one Is essential to th,e other; hence his words carried ; considerable weight with his hearers. ' The leading thoughts of his address appear herewith: - . A salesman to he a decided success must have faith in his house. In his goods and in himself. . ?ot a few salesmen fall short of the work for the reason that they do not get the right focus on the business they . represent business conditions are not given the careful attention they .should be the quality and merit of the mefchJndlse, the class of users of your .goods, the price-of them as a trade getter and trade holder, the profits to the getter and trade holder, the profits to the retailer, all these are essential elements that go to make the salesman a success, . and without he can place an abundance of faith in what he has to sell and in himself, he Would better " succeed possibly In some other vocation . than that of the commercial salesman! ' ' - When a salesman has no faith in himself he will hot have In his goods and If he thinks he can't land an order i rjini uiiii oiiiiiu, tne grucer,1 uu; in Elyville. you can bet your last dollar that John Smith will not want any of his goods. . When a salesman has no faJth In himself he will never sell a dollar's worth of goods to the man who is lukewarm and obstinate about bujftng. To know his trade Is more than mere ly being acquainted a salesman must be vitally Interested in the trade he calls on and show life-like en affection In each customer as Is possible for him to assume. - He must to-day, the day day after and all of the days to follow X-'ftlt elleve he can ell, anymm he V..J'-Pon some day he must abso- lute.y have faith in his goods, in his house and in himself. , . ! The salesman w ho is "dead sure" hev Is right, knows that he Is on the right track, knows that his house in right,! that nis prices are rignt, win soon prove he's made of the sight stuff and need have.no fear of being called down by the house or the "oia'-man" who sees nothing in ev salesman but orders. Some nalesmen are apt to mark a few towns on their lit as "tourh places." and maybe he thinks the houie has forced him out In this cold cruel world Just to se how hard they can put him bp agilnst the toughest towns on the map but like the true hero, ' he has faith galore In himself and his house, and by perltent f. fort these places soon chanee Into paying propositions, an J -this weil- of four . or more ceonle.
