Gullible Students Swallow Bait of Energetic Agents and Start Upon Summer Business Caree
"There's a certain look about your face that tells you can sell," or "A friend of yours recommended you as a person who could make good with my company" or "One of your professionals pointed you out as a potential product this summer." Saps big jolty bait are dreaded before the eyes of gullible students by the advance agents for carvacing concerns who specialize in student encasers.

No matter how demure or timid the student may be, a few minutes of golden talk by the agent and the student begins to feel himself capable of selling a full page ad in the Sage Owl to the local postoffice.
It usually happen like this: Some evening you are sitting peacefully in your room with your eyes glued to a textbook while your mind takes diphthalptic trips to a fine musical on the door down stairs. The landlady opens it. Your name is called. You go down. Refers you stand in neatly dressed young man who chokes your hand vigorously and tells you that he超nw wanted to see if you are the man he wants to see.
You begin to have visions of an unknown and inefficient uncle who has just passed to his reward, leaving you his fortune. But the visitor finishes his历险 and says, "I will go home and find a new engineer!" but that if you will call in his room in the Eldridge House, he can tell you how to make 55 or 60 or even 110 a day during the winter; he leaves and leaves, and returns every month until you marry to yourself, "if I only could."
The next day finds you at the place designated, with high hopes or perhaps with a few misgivings, dependent on whether or not you have taken the proposition over with a great deal of patience. At the moment whiles away all your doubts. After getting you content comfortably, he looks down into your
noweful young face and relates how Bill Smith made $1140 last summer, Charles Brown made $1680 and Paul Gage made more than a thousand dollars each summer. "I'm not sure if you know the word," he says "musicologically, 'there is an affidavit with a mourning's soul to prove my statement.'"
You voice an objection. He overlures it. You think of another. He dispels it with a gesture. You timidly suggest that maybe others could make a success but that you do not believe that you can make it go. Then he plays his face, "There's something about your face," or "A friend recommended" etc. You are flattered. You are daydreaming. "To think that this should come over to you." With the trained salesman's eye, he can see that you are sold on the proposition.
"Now just sign on this dotted line and fill out all this blank check for $5 to pay for the training course. The money will be refunded after your first sale." You wander in you see the $5 about to be deducted from your manager bank account, but your agent habitly thinks that he is leaving on the next train and that a sales officer will take the proposition. You talk. The agent shakes your hand. You have agreed to sell the best thing on the market during the country summer.
With a deft sweep of his hand he clears off the table and brings out his prospectus or sample case. In a few well chosen words he shows how a nub is made, how the money is collected, how the purchaser, is benefited, how you make a bune profit, and how to get it. You even admit that the company makes a small profit on the transaction.
The rest of the story depends on what you put into the job, but this is the way in which you are units apt to get signed up while hardly knowing what is happening in your young life.

A Jantzen Puts the Joy in Swimming
Decoration Day is coming! Heat's here. Get into a Jantzen! Feel its perfect, comfortable fit. Claim the coolness you hanker for.
Jantzen has literally taken the country by storm! In 1918, Carl Jantzen, expert Pacific Coast swimmer, saw a nation paddling around the edges. Baggy skirts impeded swimming. Fabrics stretched and sagged.
Today the newer freedom of Jantzen is the choice of millions.
Jantzen-stitch is elastic—no other fabric like it. Modest, warm, long wearing. Woven of 100 per cent long-fire pure worsted wool. Fits the body perfectly wet or dry.
See our Jantzens for men and women. Compare a Jantzen with any other suit. Buy one—and you'll know why it is called "The Suit that Changed Bathing to Swimming."
Men's Jantzens—$6
Women's Jantzens—$7
Cadet Jantzens—$6
