GETTING WHAT YOU PAY FOR<br />
If you were to go into a store and<br />
buy several articles of merchandise<br />
and the clerk should fail to give you,<br />
or deliver, ALL of the articles, you<br />
would raise a terrible howl, wouldn't<br />
you?<br />
Why not apply that same principle<br />
when it comes to taking your business<br />
course ? <strong>The</strong> subjects in the<br />
different courses are VERY essential<br />
to your success; otherwise, we would<br />
not include them and take up our<br />
time, or yours, trying to give them.<br />
Take the course in Salesmanship<br />
and Personality Development: Your<br />
teacher does not take time to give<br />
that course just because he LIKES<br />
to do it; he could easily use his time<br />
to ADVANTAGE doing something<br />
else. But he feels that he OWES it<br />
to the students to try to HELP them<br />
develop their personalities, acquire<br />
the right attitude, and be able to sell<br />
their sei'vices when they have finished<br />
their training.<br />
Some students make it a point, apparently,<br />
to have outside engagements<br />
or private business to see after<br />
when this class convenes; others<br />
claim they need that time to study<br />
their Shorthand, practice their Typewriting,<br />
or the like.<br />
<strong>The</strong> student has 24 hours each day<br />
at his disposal. Suppose he uses 11<br />
hours of that time for sleeping, eating,<br />
dressing, etc. He still has 13<br />
hours left. School is in session 6^i<br />
hours each day. That leaves 6^/2<br />
hours for exercise, diversion, and the<br />
preparation of his lessons, practice,<br />
etc., outside of school hours. <strong>The</strong>n,<br />
surely, he should be able to meet ALL<br />
of his recitations in school.<br />

Business people are looking for<br />
employees who are DEPENDABLE.<br />
No student who is always having to<br />
leave or absent himself from school<br />
to see after personal business, or because<br />
of "engagements" or "appointments<br />
with friends," the doctor, the<br />
dentist, or the beauty parlor, can be<br />
regarded as a DEPENDABLE sort<br />
of person.<br />
<strong>The</strong> student should so arrange his<br />
affairs that he will be just as prompt<br />
and faithful in his attendance at<br />
school as he would if he had a job<br />
with a large bank or other corporation.<br />
Remember, you will have to<br />
put in longer hours when you go to<br />
work and there'll be no "excuse,"<br />
"tardy," or "absent" blanks to be<br />
signed then.<br />
So, see that you get your MONEY'S<br />
WORTH while taking your business<br />
course; that is, take ALL of the<br />
things you are supposed to take,<br />
stay on the job continuously, and<br />
build a reputation for being DE-<br />
PENDABLE. It will mean a lot<br />
more to YOU than it does to US for<br />
you to do that.<br />
<strong>The</strong> fellow who DOESN'T know<br />
doesn't KNOW that he DOESN'T<br />
KNOW; that's the reason HE<br />
DOESN'T KNOW. To put it another<br />
way, the fellow who is continually<br />
leaving or absenting himself<br />
from school—who is constantly missing<br />
recitations, or failing to take the<br />
things that he should take—doesn't<br />
KNOW what he is missing—doesn't<br />
REALIZE how much he is losing<br />
—<br />
doesn't STOP to THINK what it's<br />
going to COST him in the long run.<br />
If he realized the importance of ALL<br />
these things, he most assuredly<br />
would "turn over a new leaf" and<br />
try to get his money's worth.<br />
