Editor and Publisher 1 Thursday, October 24, 1929 ■■—ll ■■■■ ■■■ _ _ _ _ < (live Them Their Own Medicine ■ Several Syracuse residents have received unordered Christ- . mas cards through the mail this past week. The yearly scheme according to complaints we’ve heard, is that the cards are followed the next day by bills for same. According to the office of the Postmaster General, it is neither necessary to return unordered cards, nor to pay for them unless used. Anyone being bothered by this unordered material —and bills for same, may take a tip from 1 a certain party. He is a doctor in a certain town who received a box of these Christmas cards 1 through the mail which he hadn’t ordered. The next day he received a bill requesting one dollar in payment for the cards. Being wise to the unordered merchandise scheme, the doctor made up a box of pills and them to the company which had sent him the Christmas cards. He also sent the company a letter stating that the pills were worth two dollars, and would the company kindly send him one dollar, the balance due him after subtracting the dollar he owed the company for the Christmas cards. He soon received a second letter from the company again requesting him to send a dollar in payment for the cards. This time he replied that he charged two dollars for yaking a call and since it had been necessary for him to leave his office to post this letter, his bill now amounted to three dollars, two dollars for the call, and one dollar still due him for his pills. Would the company kindly remit? A few days later he received a very short letter from the company to the effect that his name had been stricken from the its mailing list. The corn-on-the-cob season is the time of year when the practiced flute player has it on the rest of us in the matter of gracefulness. - o — I. U.

Syracuse Party Telephoning Europe Would “Talk Money”

If a Syracuse party were to lift his telephone receiver and say, “Hello, Central, give me Europe’,’ it would cost him from $48.00 to $55.50, for a three-minutes talk, depending on from which country his party, answered. “No, we’ve never put in 'any calls for Europe from this office,” smiled Miss Helen Schroeedr. when questioned. “But the new rates have just come in, telling us what the cost would be if such a call should>ome to dur office. It is now possible to phone from here to Itxpy —for $54. and connections in Ire land have just been completed so that Dublin and Belfast can be reached for $49.50. Miss Schroeder went on to say that the longest call taken care of from Syracuse, was to Los Angeles, last summer. This summer there have been about six'calls a month to New York City. There has been one to Miami, Fla., one to New Canaan, Conn., one’ to New Orleans, one to Kansas City and several to lowa.' In July alone there were 419 calls to Chicago, 242 to Indianapolis, 22 to Louisville, Ky., three to Pittsburgh, and one to each of the following: Davenport, Iowa; Elkhart Lake, Wis.; Huntington, W. Va.; Buffalo, N. Y.; Camden, N. J.; Niagara Falls; Short Hills, N. J.; St. Louis, Mo.; St. Paul, Minn.; and Wilmot, Wise. The operators in the Syracuse
