Woman In Tough Joli, Sells Big Machinery

.-....

OAIBAEY. Feb. 11-(OP)-Bellins heovymschinery and earth-moving

equipment to tough-talking engin-

eers and foremen on construction jobs is something that had always

been left to the men. but 48-year-

old Mrs. E. M. Vye proved'lt could be done by women-and just as

well.

The pleasant. soft-spoken Calgary mother is the only known woman in North America who makes her living as a salesman of the big machines.

It all started 11 years ago when the manager of Wilkinson and Mc- Olesn Ltd. realized he would need women in his firm to replace the men going into the armed services. He didn't think he could get any- body to sell equipment. so he ad- vertised for a woman who could at least keep in Contact with the ni-m's customers.

Mrs. Vve successfully applied for the job and set about keeping rela- tions good between company and client. Perhaps even to her own surprise. she found herself study- ing therbusiness and graduating to the sales class.

Since that time she has sold hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of equipment and is one of the firms most valued representa- tives.

Mrs. Vye. a widow. took the job in the first place to support herself and her daughter. Now her daugh- ter has married Mrs. Vve herself is married again. but the machin- ery business is in her blood.

Making good in a man's world didn't come easy for Mrs. Vye.

"The fact that I was a female was one of the tollgllest hurdles to overcome." she says. "Engineers and others I had dealings with made no particular attempt to be chivalrous and it was hard to coll- vince them I had as mllch to offer as any other salesman.”

A; for selling technique. she gives this pointer: .

"What I don't know I admit I don't know. Then i try to fluid out.”

Marriage Bureau Highly Successful

LONDON. run. ll-(Cl?)-A mar- riage society in North London that charges a yearly fee of 10 guineas for introducing would-be suitors is going so well it has started a news sheet on marriage problems.

Founded in 1946. the society has had more than 7.000 enquiries re- sulting in almost 200 msrriagesand several engagements.

During this time it has gained comprehensive knowledge of the problems uppermost in the minds of most would-be husbands and wives.

To help those too shy-or too busy-to discuss all the aspects of marriage in which they are inter- ested. Rev. R. W. Griffiths.a mem- ber of the management committee, has written two issues of a news bulletin on foremost marriage prob-

lems.

The paper. given free to mem- bers. has listed the strict rliles on mixed marriages laid down by the Roman Catholic Church. It also gives advice on reading matter about marital problems.

Griffiths advises that wives should know their husbands' in- comes and be informed of all ex- penses. '”I'hen she will realize that it is impossible to get more than a pint out of a pint not." After earn- ing a salary. many women today find it hard to adjust their out- look to financial dependence.

The Glamor Angle

In general. the society finds that men are more capricious than wo- men ln their choice of a marriage partner. "Many men want film- star types and will not take any- thing else." said Mayo Wyngate. psychologist and co-founder of the

society.

"Men dont seem to realize that film-star types don't come to mar- riage societies. they get too many chances without that."

About one in five applications to join the society are accepted. Clients must answer a question- naire and then be interviewed by the psychologist. who assesses their temperament.

"It would be difficult to find is
