In “The Rag Man,” Jackie Coogan
is once more a regular American
boy, a lad from the sidewalks of New
York. In his other recent pictures
he has been wandering all over the
map in variety of roles. Those folk
who have been demanding to see thé
Jackie they first loved in “The Kid,”
will have their opportunity, for he is
said to have a similar role that gives
him just as much chance for pathos
and even more for comedy.
The story was written especially
for the child star by Willard Mack,
and this distinguished playwright has
constructed a humorous and thrilling
tale as only he can, full of activity,
but not crowded with complications.
Golden Rule Pays
Beat in Business
Service and courtesy are the two
greatest assets of business firms.
Having the goods and delivering
them in a pleasing manner are what
win public approval.
Good rules along this line are :
When the customer comes in with
a complaint, don’t send him or her
from piiler to post; that irritates.
Study the cause of complaints;
eradicate them at their source.
Completeness of reply is only one-
half of courtesy; the manner of re
ply is the other half.
Be polite and pleasant, thus mak
ing the party glad ho or she called.
Show individuality to each custo
mer; make him feel he is “Mr.
Simpson” and not just one of the
throng.
