Sir, — I have learned to close the door in the faces of earnest
souls offering eternal salvation. I have spent 50 cents on a “NO CIRCULARS PLEASE” sign, and promptly ring the owners of any “litter” in my mailbox and ask them to retrieve it. But what can I do about those voices feigning friendship, who telephone at the most inconvenient times. Can the Post Office put a “NO HAWKERS” SIGN next to my name in the directory? Perhaps I should get their number and telephone them, inconveniently, at 3 a.m. — Yours, etc.,
L. A. HUNTER. September 17, 1983.
