It le an accompllahment and a virtue.
Why I* It »o llttla taught, teamed or practlaed?
Not long elnce I entered a itatlonery ealabllBhment where all klnda of
printing are done. , . ...
Like the majority of American*. I waa In aomethtng of a liuriy—-with
many dutlea and engagements to till
the day.
I wanted to aek the price of a cer
tain piece of work I desired done, which
might have reaulted In my permanent
patronage.
There were three men and a young
woman within apeaklng distance; all
were busy with customers: two of them
glanced nt me. but otherwise Ignored
my presence.
I waited live ininutea and no one
had approached me or spoken tn me.
Then I went elsewhere. How easily
one of these attendants rould have
said In a gracious and polite manner.
"Madam. 1 will be at liberty In a few
moments. Will you wait?"
It would have satisfied my sense of
the decencies nf business association
and secured my patronage.
Uver and over I have had thla expe
rience In New Tnrk and other Ameri
can cities.
1 prefer Amertra !• any other coun
try I have ever aeen. hut I do not be
lieve this lack of courtesy rould be
found In one shop In a hundred abroad.
It not only coals nothing In be po
lite and affable, hut It pays How cu
rious that the dividend-loving, shrewd,
progressive American eo frequently for
gets this tact.
I am confident, the more I see of life,
that all employees In whatever situa
tion reflcet the color of the mind which
directs them.
Without question, the tnan who Is at the head of that printing estab
lishment which Is herein referred to lacks courtesy, and his Influence per-
meates the whole Institution.
I remember an apartment house where the crankiness and brutality of a
landlord who had never learned self-control was reflected by all the elevator
boys and attendant* In a lesser form.
. I know another where the good nature and kind heart of the proprietor
Is to be found In some measure In the deportment of all hie employee*.
If a haughty, dleagreeable or Impertinent man or maid maeta me at a
door where 1 call I know the ruling aplrlt of that household promises simi
lar qualities, unless Ii rhance* lo be n transient attendant who ha* not
been long enough In the new position to shake off the meqtal habits of the
* To* Hie manager of any department In any of our large ehope can lie
traced lu prevailing spirit of either courtesy or brusqueness which pa-
irons encounter.
There nre shops—a few only—which It I* a pleaeure to enter: there nr*
..(hers-many others—where Inattention, sullen'neas or a lofty air of conde
scension prevail from manager to elevator boy.
It It well to remember one thing: The really great people of thy world
- those horn with great hral»i sod hearts—have altvaje been courteous,
simple and kind In manner to their fellow men In all stations of Ilf*, and
If you wont to Imitate real greatness, as well ae to make life sweeter for
everybody*, you will cultivate tbeee accomplishment*.
