LETTER WRITING
What has been said about deeds and mortgages applies not only to the farmer, but also to every owner of a building lot. The same may be said of wills. They have a business interest for the town as well as for the country dweller. BUSINESS LETTERS The purpose of this book being "strictly business," no attempt will be made to instruct the reader in anything not connected with the subject under consideration. Social, friendly, and such letters are matters for individual time and taste, and no rule can be laid down for their writing, but the business letter is a different matter, and one which deserves special consideration from every man or woman who receives an order by mail, or who sends one. To write a good business letter is no mean accomplishment, and although a gift with some, it can be acquired by all. A letter is, in a way, a testimonial of the character and ability of the writer. The purpose of a business letter is to express just what you want and no more. |
