Direct selling popularity and its appealing oppor tunities have led many Io invest time and money in direct selling ventures w ilh- oul firs t checking the firm 's reputation or credentials Amway Corporation, one o f the nation's leading in- home sales companies with more than 150,000 d istrib utors in the U S and Can ada reports that ’ although d ire c t sales is a time h o n o re d , e c o n o m ic a lly 32.056 1965 6.136 1970 85.9% A spokesman for the Office fo r C iv il Rights, Bob Smith, noted that most of the news papers were "saying that seg regation increased" in the Northern cities. ” l'm sur prised they are holding their own," he said. "1 think the figures show that it (a seg regation increase) ls not true. They remain about the same for ’68 and ’ 70,” Smith com mented.

DIRECT SELLING. T he recent economic recession has led many people, especially home makers, to seek part-time employment to help supple ment the family income According to the U S . Bu reau o f Labor Slatislns, a p p ro xim a te ly 1,285,000 women work on a part-time basis w ith many working in direct sales Direct sales is an ideal part-time business which allows a woman to work from her home, choose her own hours, work at her own pace, and determine her 1968 2J56 Cburri) of Dour Cfjoice sound, productive way o f ’ riling, it can be sometimes misrepresented If you are being asked to jo in a direct selling plan, Amway urges that you look into it carefully before you invest Check the company's credentials with your local Better Business Bureau. For your protection, Amway recommends using the fo l lowing guidelines as a check list: I. Be sure that products w ill be sold to actual cus tomers at retail. Retail sales to the consumer are the only sure long-term basis for the success o f any direct selling enter prise. 2 Be sure your money investment Is reasonable Carefully consider how much money you are re quired to invest and what y o u 'll get for it Then you w on't end up invest ing your savings in a garage full o f unsalable merchandise I he Amway sales and marketing plan, fo r example, requires only a modest initial in vestment. $25 00 or less is all it takes to start a business and the invest inent is refundable 3. Be sure everyone is offered the same sales plan. Be cautious of a ptelerred direct selling position you can buv. Remember that earned success is the only real success 4 Be sure Ihe company knows its product and can supply it in quantity Nothing can be more dis couraging to a new sales person than to lose an order because he can’t give the customer any product inform ation or to get an order he can't fill. 5 Be sure the company's sales plan and principles are reputable Watch out for ihe “ gel rich quick s c h e m e s ." "re cru itin g rackets," “ wholesale buy ing clubs" or “ inventory loading schemes.” In each o f these cases the "p ro fits " are fictitio u s because no substantial amounts o f goods are ever actually sold at re- tail, to consumers There is no real p ro fit . but the tragic losses to many who invest in such plans arc very real. 6 Be sure the company provides education and guidance for new sales- people Without proper orientation to your new business, yo u 'll most like ly lose confidence, potential sales and investment. A sales and marketing plan, such as Am way’s is designed to p ro v id e this essential guidance and education through the help o f expe nenced people in the same distribution net- work 7. Be sure o f guaranteed c u s to m e r satisfaction. Check if the company offers a money back guar antee to dissatisfied cus tomers. A money back guarantee policy w ill help assure customer satisfac tion and generate repeat business. Ask yourself if the plan you're considering in cludes each of these fea tures The answer should be “ yes" every time . . . or you should proceed with great caution Here’ s a defensive driving tip from the PORTLAND TRAFFIC SAFETY COMMIS SION: When you see a road hazard requiting you to stop— —pump your brakes lightly H O R IZO N TA L V E R TIC A L 1 Fragrant 1 Roster flower 2 Angers 6 Hybrid flower 3 Solitary 11 Pressed 4 Collection of 13 East Indian sayings flower buds 5 Chemical 14 Legislative hydrocai bon txxly 6 Entreaties 15 Title anew 7 Eternity 16 African fly 8 Ellipsoidal (var ) 9 Thread 17 Abstract (comb form) beings 10 River in 19 Gibbon Belgium 20 Some flowers 12 Small h a ve------ depression colors 13 Fawns 22 Carpenter's 18 Habitation implement 25 No good (a b ) 26 Stranger 21 Stretch (comb, form) 30 Eternities 31 Scottish sheepfold 32 For best results, you must • flower plants 33 Popular flower 34 German river 35 Domestic slave 36 An aster is like a ------ 37 Goddess of Ihe earth 38 Flout 39 Stained 42 Root flnial 45 Chinese flower 46 Tear 49 Keep 51 Scold 53 Golf courses 54 Puffs up 55 Fixed look J/twzZ ¿V/rrZ baptist Church Rev.John H Jack son M inislor F irst andSchuyler Phone 284-1954 Sunday School Morning Worship 9 a.m. 1 1 a.m. 5 p.m. ■ P o rtland, Oro. 22 Personal (ab.) 23 Booty 24 Handle 27 Gaelic 28 Number 29 Sheaf 31 Areas 38 Genus of herbs 40 Straighten 41 Hollow cylinder 42 Units of energy 43 Clever 44 Genus of shrubs 46 Proportion 47 Passage in the brain 48 Nuisance 50 Air (comb form ) 52 Sped Lei us cnOrr to ivo ntup a n d depart to icrve.
