Patterson, president and genera! manager of the National Cash Reg- ister Company, is the “star” in a very clever sizact business play now being produced before audi- ences of salesmen. This play, “The Evolution of a Store,” is the latest pian of the National Cash Register Company for the instruction of tts large sales force in new selling methods, But the most striking feature of it ts, of course, the appearance of Pres’ dent Patterson as the “star.” The president ts noted for his or- iginality of method fn all things, more especially tn developing sell- ing talent. He founded the first ‘hool” for mlesmen, and he has made “teaching by the eye” an axiom of business training. In every C. R. conference, his “chalk talks” are a feature. consist of rough sketches, hastily drawn by the president tn black and colored crayon, to drive home out the cash register plant, you will find large paper tablets on easel and an abundance of crayons, and a “chalk talk” is just as Mkely in the The president cate of moving pictures.

The play is based on the ot terson takes the part of the cash register agent, and when the play had its ‘erest tryout here re- cently, at the National Cash Regis- ter plant, he occupied the stage for a total of three hours. More remarkable—his “lines” were entirely impromptu, and he gave a masterly demonstration of modern salesmanship. In the first act, he made the “ap- proach” to a retail grocer, inviting |the latter's interest and confidence | by suggesting fn a friendly way {m- provements possible in store meth- ods, In the second act, the agent had Interested the grocer in the 1916 model of the National cash register, and had also succeeded in converting the grocers wife in |favor of the proposition Next, the agent visited the gro- jcer’s banker and the wholesaler, and “sold” them. Then, after the jeash register had been installed, [two acta were given to explaining “N. C. R.

Of course, “The Evolution of a Store” ha ite “happy ending”. improved financial condition and Increased home happiness | The play affords the opportunity to Mr. Patterson to display those marvelous business traits which have made him a master of bust ness, Both in his acting and in his “lines,” he shows the supreme telligence, kindness, courtesy and other factors of up-todate sales mangship. The play is intended for the benefit of the company's salesmen, and it will only be produced before audiences composed of salesmen brought to the plant for instruc. tion, IN BUSINESS DRAMA METHODS OF SELLING These) various points brought out.
