A FAC SIMILE LETTER FROM A TELEGRAPH OPERATOR.
E. S. Hewitt & Company, . Cliitina, Alaska, Nov. 1J, 1916.
Juneau, Alaska.
Dear Sirs:
Enclosed find check for $44.50 for balance due on my new “Silent Smith.’*
I am well pleased with the machine. Find it to be just what you represented and better
than that, I have learned to like it and find it faster than the Underwood. I gave it a very good
test during the election. Took seventy-seven bulletins and all commercial work besides. I
will always have a good word for the L. C. Smith hereafter. Very respectfully,
F. W. S.
Call at our office and inspect this high-grade typewriter and satisfy yourself that it is the best.

Have You Had This Letter?
• f a business* man wrote to you on a scrap of paper and
never used a letter head, you would conclude he wasn’t
much of a success—wouldn’t you? A man who does not
use modem business methods cannot possibly compete with
the man who does. A man who pays all his bills by cash
and never by check does not impress people with being a
successful man.
If you pay your bills by checks on your Bank Account here
you are writing upon the Letter Head of Success.
