November 17, 1928 WINNETKA TALK 43 Public Forum Winnetka, Illinois, November 2, 1928. Editor, WINNETKA TALK: You got a pretty good group of class publications, that is to say, good read- ing matter and such, but as to getting help, in distress, it's the boloney. The ad placed by my wife (formerly Helen White of Wilmette) brought about sixty-five calls to the home of my par- ents-in-law, thereby incurring their wrath. I should have told you later that we moved back to our palatial manse in Winnetka (mortgages Ist and 2nd) and besides we had to get a maid before your papers came out so we called an employment agency and by the grace of all that's good, got a maid ahead of time. I suppose I shouldn't have mentioned this as I do not wish to reflect on your class publications. However, I am en- closing draft on my wife's (formerly Helen White of Wilmette) bank for the amount of the want ad in all three publications, which, in itself, shows what a big shot I am. The publicity you brought out in your class publications regarding the birth of a child to my wife (formerly Helen White of Wilmette) was indeed inter- esting, and when you say it was a scoop on WMAQ you spoke true words, evidenced by the call to arms issued by one Bill Hedges (resident of Wilmette) who demanded in harsh manner why in (insert dash) I kept it a secret. My lame excuse did not ap- pease him, and in retaliation he is pre- paring a gala announcement to come out, shortly, in the Daily News Circle (a publication of, by, and for, the em- ployes of the Chicago Daily News) who today issued an eighty page news- paper apropos nothing at all, so I guess that mahes a chump out of you. Kindly make correction in your class publications regarding statement, "bouncing father of a proud boy." This is haywire, to say the least, and demands correction for your own face. Have your staff pay particular atten- tion to this in the future. Later I will write a more explicit letter to you and the staff regarding improvements which could be made in your class publications. Also, I think I shall come home early some afternoon and write a few good articles on timely topics for your class publications. These should increase your circulation mate- rially. I shall do it for the sheer love of it. Say no more about it. Regarding the improved tone of the flute, this 1s in error, as some rank Democrat stepped on it in the Al Smith parade the other day which is simply one more reason why Hoover will sweep the country. Pardon the allusion to politics, but it simply shows my close contact wth current events. Best regards from the wife (former- ly Helen White of Wilmette) and the writer, well known radio announcer and flutist. Your very truly, Rans Sherman. P. S. Remember me to the wife (formerly of insert locality.) November 12, 1928 Editor, WINNETKA TALK: May I thank you for your kind co- operation in publicity during our re- cent Hoover campaign.
