The way this writer has in mind to get wealthy would take nothing from anyone else, in fact would at the same time save millions for the persons who would furnish the money to make this writer wealthy. The amount of postage stamps the government would sell might be reduced, but the postal department is losing money on every stamp it sells, so by reducing the postal business, the plan would save money for the government. Briefly, here Is the way someone may become a multi-millionaire. Every newspaper receives every year at least a thousand letters which are never so much as open ed. They contain free publicity stuff of one kind and another. Those who open letters for the newspapers can spot these free publicity letters from a distance. N o editor has time to read them, even were he Interested. So into the waste basket they go It costs a lot of money to prepare the material that goes into these letters that go into waste baskets without being opened, without get ting any attention whatever. It costs money to put the ma terial into the envelopes. It costs money for the envelopes. It costs newspapers money to sort envelopes of this kind from those that contain something worth while. It costs the editor something to have his waste basket emptied and the refuse burned. Under the present administration about half the free publicity ma terial reaching the editorial desk comes from some alphabetical de partment of the government. Some day some bright person is going to go around emptying edi torial waste baskets, m aking col lections of these discarded free publicity letters. Then he is going to charge a small percentage for showing those who prepare the material how much they can save by not sending out the material, and In an In- creditably short time he is going to be wealthy. Uncle Sam might be able to bal ance his budget merely by elimin ating the expense connected with sending out material that is never seen by the editorial eye for which it is intended. This writer will claim a commis sion from the person who takes hold of this Idea and gets wealthy from its operation. y.-ars 1» holding in her h e .? a partially unwrapped loaf of bread and Is indignantly exclaiming to her mother, who Is standing by Ma, oh M a' Look here this bread Isn't sliced Ma is saying Well. uh. take It back N o have them come and rat I V • • • It is rather odd that during the depression tea have developed to the utmost the little services that make It almost unnecessary for us to exercise our muscles in going through life, as well as some other services that would have made our forefathers howl derisively. And don't think that these little services don't cost us money. We have all heard about the woman who had a flve-cenl spool of thread delivered when she could just as well have put It In her handbag at the time of purchase O f course, it cost the merchant more than the price of the thread to make the delivery, but he didn't go out of business because of mak ing sales the cost of which were more than he received from the sales. He didn't go out of business be cause the total cost of delivery was added to total sales. This woman paid on a larger sale for the cost of delivering the spool of thread. Years ago there was not a piece of machinery in a bakery. Today the machinery in a bakery coats hundreds or thousands of dollars. Years ago a grocer or a baker grabbed a loaf of bread from a show case with a hand and wrap ped it up the same as any other item was wrapped. Today a person wouldn't carry away a loaf of bread that could be touched by the hand of the person selling IL These little additions to service haven't been made without adding to the cost of things we buy. but we are willing to pay the added cost. And the larger part of these little things that add slightly to cost of our foodstuffs have been added during the period that we have been complaining about not having enough to pay our bills.
