If You Want To
Know—Then Ask!
The question is one of the most
valuable of conversational tools. It
pays to know how to use the little
barbed hook, says Farnsworth
Crowder in the current Rotarian
Magazine, for when you do, you
have the key to delightful conver
sation, friendly contacts, and de
sired information.
“It is often remarked that the
two most absorbing subjects for
talk in the world are shop and
love,” he says. “It were probably
as well not to go about asking
people about their love life. But
it is safe to sak them to talk
shop.” You’ll be surprised at the
interesting things you 11 learn from
asking about the work of folks
who “know their stuff” in trades
or professions different from your
own. A question along this line
is sincere flattery; it is bound
to get results for it shows an
interest in the thing most inter
esting to the person himself—his
own life.
Even a simple question asking
information compliments the
would-be informer by giving him
the pleasurable opportunity of tell
ing something he knows which
you do not. So don’t be afraid to
ask questions, concludes Mr. Crow
der. Have an inquiring mind.
You’ll find it pays.
