Excerpt from The Department Store a Novel of Today Mieze Meier took the little thing from the cradle and carried it out into the studio. It went on crying. She rocked it in her arms, pressed it close to her bosom, and hushed it with gentle words: Be still, my dar ling. Don't cry so, sweet. Baby has her Aunt Mieze still. Aunt Mieze loves Baby very, very much. And as if her soft low voice had hypnotised the infant, its crying became quieter and gradually ceased. In a little while it was asleep. Then Thor Nickelsen came into the room. He looked pale and stricken, yet composed, as one who has long been prepared for a destined blow, and, now that it has fallen, can view the ending of the crisis with a certain relief.

Excerpt from For Gold or Soul?: The Story of a Great Department Store The monster department store of Messrs. Denton, Day & Co. was thronged with shoppers, although the morning was still young. Scores of pale-faced women and narrow-chested men stood behind the counters, while "cash girls," with waxen cheeks and scrawny figures, darted here and there on their ceaseless errands. On the fifth floor of the building, where the firm's offices were quartered, a score or more of anxious girls and women waited eagerly for an opportunity to enter their applications for service. At last a private door was opened by an elfish-looking boy, and the earliest applicant was allowed to enter, the boy warning her, as she did so, to "be quick about it." "So you are looking for work? Well, what can you do? Got any references? Talk fast, for I have no time to waste on applicants." The speaker was Mr. Duncan Forbes, junior partner, as well as business superintendent of the establishment, and the person spoken to was a beautiful girl, about seventeen years of age, who had called to apply for a position as saleswoman. "I have never worked before, sir," said the young girl, trying to obey and talk as rapidly as possible, "but I am sure I could learn in a very short time, if only you will give me a trial as saleswoman. Do please give me a trial " About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Romance of a Great Store For nearly four thousand years, perhaps longer, caveat emptor ruled the hard world of barter.

Excerpt from The Saleslady The S aleslady is, at any rate, a contribution to our knowl edge Of changes that are taking place in the life and charac ter of women as a result of their entrance into the broader fields of economic life. It is in manner impressionistic and descriptive rather than systematic and formal; Frances Donovan, the author, is rather more interested in the his tory than in the sociology Of contemporary life. The book she has written, because Of its exploratory character, has more the character of a personal narrative and a report of observations than of a systematic treatise. It is written, one may perhaps say, from the point of View Of what Lindeman aptly calls the participant Observer. The author has been able to enter sympathetically and understandingly into the experiences Of the persons whose lives she depicts, but at the same time she is keenly alive to the larger implications Of her own experiences and those of the women with whom she is associated.

"This is the first beautifully illustrated book on department stores, with photographs and ephemera from all over the world. Born in the Gilded Age in France, the department store grew up thanks to the industrial revolution, the rise of the middle class, and the invention of steel-frame architecture and the elevator. Spectacular entrances led to marble staircases and floor after floor of merchandise and amenities. These emporiums also inspired a whole new way of merchandising: shopping became an entertainment rather than a laborious grind; posters and advertisements were made by the great artists of the time; and elaborate shop windows attracted thousands of people during the holidays. The department store quickly spread through Europe and Asia and then the New World, and great architects were employed to build these temples of consumerism, where dreams were created and then fulfilled"--

Excerpt from Retail Store Management Problems Since, in preparing men for executive positions in business, it is necessary to train them to think as an executive must think, the problems are presented as they came to the executives of stores. They are actual executive problems as we have been able to find them, with a few facts changed to cover up the identity of the particular store. Incidentally they are problems which the retailers are most interested in solving. From the experience of the members of the staff of the Harvard Graduate School of Business Administration, the advantages of the case method of teaching are unquestionable. The course in Retail Store Management has been developed from a lecture system to a discussion basis and from there to a straight case system. The necessary detailed background and the general principles of retailing are more thoroughly covered by present ing them in the body of the cases than by the lecture or text-book method. Class interest is more easily maintained when the members of the class visualize the problem as their problem and have the opportunity of discussing what should be done under particular circumstances, rather than when the instructor alone expresses his views. There is usually more than one way to solve a business problem and a proper discussion should determine a satisfactory conclusion.
