AT BOWMANVILLE "Selling as The Customer Likes It," was defined for a group of approximately 100 businessmen and women, and their employees at a selling course in the town hall Wednesday. C. W. (Bill) Wright, of Toronto, sales instruction expert, address- ed the meeting, which was joint- ly sponsored by the Rotarv Club. Busi and Professional Wom- en's Club and the merchants' division of the Bowmanville Chamber of Commerce. Sales should be made in four {basic steps, the approach, pres- |entation, customer reaction and Expert Gives Sales Advice . BOWMANVILLE (Staff) -- told in simple terms, easily un- derstandable to the prospective buyer," he said. "One very important step in retail merchandising, and one that is almost entirely neglected is the customer's reaction," he declared. Mr. Wright referred to nine out of 10 prospective car buyers, kicking the right front tire of the auto they seem inter- ested in. He continued, if the cus- tomer is 'nuts' about something, play up that something to make the sale." The fourth point, the close, is very important. The merchant should always give the customer the close, said "Mr. Wright. He stated no one ever sells "things." {The merchant "sells" people. He said when a customer walks into a store and says, 'Give me a package of cigarets," thé store- keeper has not made a sale, but merely carried out an order. a choice, but the choice should always be between 'something and something. Never between | something and nothing." UNDERSTAND PEOPLE "One of the greatest ways to become successful in the retail Mayor Outlines Council Stand to' "All Residents" from town council, which clarifies council's position in the forthcoming li- quor vote Saturday has brought forth objections from some rate- payers. One of them declared {that "He could think for him- self and didn't need the council to tell him how to vote." Nicholas Hornung, security officer at an Ajax defense plant said councillors have a right as individuals, but not as a coun- cil to say these things. "I intend to take up the mat- ter with the Ontario Municipal Board' ands the Liquor Control Board." Mayor William Parish said, Mr. Hornung phoned him about the letter. When the mayor had explained council's position, Mr. Hornung apologized and said "he was sorry he had phoned a To- ronto newspaper." Mayor Parish stressed that the letter did not advise anyone how to vote, but merely set forth council's position. It left the de- cision up to the voter entirely. ---- MUNICIPAL ELECTIONS Nomination Meeting NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that a meeting of the Electors of the Township of East Whitlye will be held ot the, TOWNSHIP HALL Columbus, Ontario THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 26th, 1959 From 7:30 in the afternoon to 8:30 in the afternoon for the purpose of receiving nominations for the Offices of Reeve, Deputy-Reeve and Three 13) Councillors for the year 1960, and Three (3) mem- bers of the East Whitby Public School Area Board for the years 1960 and 1961.

As one town official put it, "It's a refreshing experience to hear of youngsters doing any thing of this natore, it seems the only time we hear much about them is when they are in trouble, then the lamentations about juvenile(j delinguency go up." A quick perusal of the special edition indicates considerable re-| search to obtain facts om the Hquor traffic, and the increasing incidence of alcoholism over 'the years. One article makes a special ap- peal to parents. The paper poses this question to mothers, "Are you going to let a few selfish men (who want to live in luxury at your expense) deprive you and your family of the things you need? Those advocating more liquor outlets, - cannot give one good reason why you and your family need a licenced dining Jounge, A poem is addressed to fathers, "Vote "No' for my sake, Dad, I'm asking the question here, Which do you value the highest, Your boy, or your liquor or beer?" Several articles give pointed references to the fact that Arbor Lodge is next door to the Com- munity Centre. One writer says, "If the adults would put as much enthusiasm into a youth centre) as they are now putting into this| liquor question we would soon) bave a fine youth centre."
