Winning Customers Over
Verne F. Ryland lives at Inde
pendence, Mo. He is what is
called a second man in one of
the branch stores of a paint and
varnish company.
One day a woman charged j
into the store like the famous
bull at the famous red flag. She !
said that, in her absence, the
paperhanger had hung some pa- |
per that she had purchased at
the store, and one of the pat
terns was not what she order
ed. She wanted to know what'
the store was going to do
about it.
Some, some papers do look
different from sample book to
wall, but while she was talking
furiously, Mr. Ryland checked
her original order and invoice ;
. . . and found that she had or-;
dered exactly what she received.
She was wrong, but Mr. Ryland
couldn’t tell her so. Especially
as wrought up as the good lady
was. He let her “talk herself
out’’ . . . which took quite a
while . . . then said:
“The fault is ours. Here is the
sample book. Select any paper
you wish and we ll give it to you ;
free of charge.”
The woman looked at him in
amazement. And her tone <
changed completely. She said:
“I’ll pay any difference glad- 1
ly.” 1
She selected the paper, a more
expensive one, and although Mr. ;
Ryland told her that it would '
cost her nothing, she insisted on
paying the difference.
A few days later she came 1
back and said, "The paper is
lovely. All my friends have been
in to admire it, and I have told
them how nice you were.”
A week later she returned and 1
selected some linoleum which
came to S2O. I
Two or three weeks later, she i
came into the store and asked <
for Mr. Ryland, and told him , :
that she wished to look at paint 1 1

some S3O worth before she left.
Mr. Ryland said, "I could hard
ly believe she was the red-faced
woman I had once been con

How had Mr. Ryland brought
this changed condition? Well, he
had done three things:
1. He had let her talk herself
out.
2. He had agreed with her
and had made her feel impor
tant.
3. He had offered to do what
she wished and to give her oth

She changed immediately
from a violent critic into a fine
good friend of the store.

Meet Our Police Force!
A lot of towns boast about the
size of their police force. We’re
proud of the size of ours too —six
feet three, and weight two hun

Ryan.
Pat doesn’t have a great deal to
do—helping old ladies cross the
street, seeing that kids get home
at decent hours. And with Self-
Regulation instead of Prohibition
there’s mighty little trouble on our
street at night.
Ask Pat where he stands on Pro
hibition—and the lawlessness and
gangsterism that he used to battle

compare it with the brewers’ cur
rent program of Self-Regulation—
by which tavern keepers either too
the line or lose their licenses!
From where I sit, our town can
be proud of having a one-man po
lice force! It mightn’t be enough
in towns where Prohibition has
encouraged lawlessness. But it’s
sizable enough in our town—where
we’ve substituted moderation and
self-discipline.
