Salesmanship Is Bang Taught Here In Course By Hawk Describe* Salesmanship As Science Of Inducing One To Want What He Needs. "From the standpoint of our every day welfare, which is the greatest, or most Important profes sion?” was asked of Edward Hawk, human analyst and vocational ad viser, who has been in Shelby for some time lecturing under the aus pices of the Cleveland Star and the chamber of commerce. “All of the standard professions are very im portant so far as man’s welfare Is concerned, but perhaps the one that affect* man the most and that does the most for him is salesmanship," he answered. In its commercial sense it means “Inducing the other person to want what he needs and get what he wants.” That definition will apply In a broader sense as well for evrj child needs some culture, an dedu catlon. The parents and teachers must therefore Induce it to want culture and education and to get them. Older persons (grown-ups) often need additional education, but unless they are in some way induced to went it they go on throughout life more ignorant and inefficient than they should, or need to be. The preacher's big Job is to induce people to want religion and get it—to want to live right and do so. Salesmanship all the way down the Une means “Inducing people to change their minds, and do what they should do." A class is being organised here to take Mr. Hawk’s special course, “Human Analysis in Selling" and will begin Wednesday night of this week at the eourt house at eight o'clock. This course is open to all who are Interested in It, There will be a small tuition.

Most of this Pruett denied. Then Siller questioned, or rath er argued with, the Lane girl tell* tng her that she had no right to step in and try to take Pruett. Lintsy replied “You're not mar ried to him are you? He’s a free man. and I’ll go with him tf I please.” The love-story of Pruett, unroll ed by the testimony of the two girls, furnished the court with the most amusement it has enjoyed since the trial of the wife of a Holi ness preacher th* other day. Siller was bound over to Super ior court under a bond of $500, probable cause having been shown. Immediately after the trial, Sill er started up to Pruett with the words "You got me into this.
