IL to IA years separately. aa

You as an individual have no more

postage stamp. You are q nonentity,
you are only q yellow envelope with
q series Of marks denoting the mum,

But fattery goes a long ways. You
must be lattered, you must be ca
joled. You must be given all and any
kinds of promises, but none Of them
will be kept. Your money Is what we
want. But I must try to make you
believe that you are a great friend,
that; / read your letters personally and
answer them.
: Dear Friend-It's all bunk. For ev.
cry letter sent you, full Of ffattery and
insincere statements and lies, there
are thousands Of others all over the
country who get exactly the same let
tiers. I'll guarantee that many OF you
who read these confessions by me
have read letter after letter written
by me and to which the name of some
big boss was signed with a rubber
stamp. Or perhaps some little gum
chewing girl signed them with pen
and ink, writing the, boss name.
