My Favorite Stories 5/ CARL GOFRCII If it's all the same, we wish the >erson who has been the means of ncreaslng our mail to a conslder ible extent during the last few nonths, would cease his efforts in hat direction. A grea't number of letters have *ome addressed to the "Carl Goerch Heating and Plumbing Sup ply Company, Raleigh. N. C." For the most part, these letters have been trying to sell us all kinds af plumbing tools, bathroom fix tures and things of that nature. We're not interested in the plumb ing business and never have been engaged in it. And then, recently, someone down in South Carolina?it may be the same person, for all we know i ?has been instrumental in increas ing our mail from- that state. Last Thursday we received the follow ing letter: "Dear Mr. Goerch: Someone has told me that you have some marsh ponies for sale. I would like to khow the price on ten or fifteen head; a good truck load. Please let me know where they are and how I can get there Please let me know at once. Yours very truly, J. E. McDaniel Florence, S. C." But the prize letter of all was one we received about three weeks ago from a concern up in New York City. It reads like this; "Dear Sir; We have been Informed that along with many thousands of oth er Individuals you are suffering from flat feet. The purpose of this letter is to tell you about a patent ed system which we have recently perfected that will afford you the greatest relief. tSee enclosed cir cular.) If you-will return the enclosed i postcard, properly filled out. we will be only too glad to send you one of these. If you are not entire ly satisfied with -amo, you will be under no obligation to pay for it. We would also lift? to obtain a | representative in your state. Your name has been mentioned to us in this connection. If you have an automobile and can travel over North Carolina we are confident that you will be able to secure high financial returns for the time you give to this business. Please let us know whether you are Interested in this." We want to make it clear right now that we haven't got flat feet and never have had flat feet. And despite our Interest in our fellow man, we're not going to travel over North Carolina, hunting out peo ple with flat feet, and trying to get them to buy this patented system, referred to in the letter. However, there's no use in our getting irritated about all these letters because, after all is said and done, perhaps we've got it coming to us. We'll never forget the time, down in Washington, North Caro lina, when two or three of us com piled a list of names of some ol the most prominent citizens of thai town and sent them up to a corset Three Clyde F J Still In Hospiy Following V/y Three Cl.> de ? o ng pj malned in the Memorial!
