Excerpt from The Business Letter IN the modern evolution of business, the business letter plays an important part. It facilitates the handling of the daily routine and makes it possible to do business wherever there is a postal system.

The phrases must be well chosen, clear, convim cing, and adapted to the person to whom the letter is written.
