Business knows that customers are often lost by lack of tact, imagination & a little consideration. Common sense has dictated the eliminâ€" ation of those things which afâ€" fect good relations in busiâ€" ness. The revival of courtesy & old fashioned friendliness has increased sales« & profits wherever it has been tried, in addition to eliminating emeâ€" tional friction among employâ€" ees.

They think beyond themâ€" selves, taking the responsibiâ€" lity of putting others at ease & saying the encouraging & cheerful word that is so oftenmn néeded. We can all be like this too, if we practice courtesy every day in every human reâ€" lationship..
