HOW WE EMPLOY YOU
To start any of the plans which we have outlined it is necessary for you to have twenty sets of books. Naturally, we must get acquainted with you before we can send you books on credit. On the first order of twenty sets we require you to pay in advance. When you get started and prove to us you are going to hustle we will send you the books and you can pay us when you sell them and collect for them.
Perhaps many girls who read this will not have the necessary money on hand to pay for the first twenty sets of books. If this happens to be the case with you, there is one thing you must remember. Everyone who starts in business for herself faces the same trouble you are facing. But instead of throwing up their hands and saying “it can’t be done” they go to some one who has the money, and borrow it. If you would go to some one and explain what you are going to do they would be only too glad to lend you enough to get started on.
Read the coupon on the next page; then sign it and return to-day together with the money to pay for your first twenty sets of books.
