The jewelry department

This series of department store manuals has been prepared for the purpose of imparting definite and authentic information to that growing army of salespeople who are not satisfied to be mere counter servers — to those who realize that their vocation is one of dignity and opportunity, and that to give satisfactory service to the customer they must possess a thorough knowledge of the goods they sell, as well as a knowledge of how best to sell them.
