Missouri, PIPES (Continued from page 118) the matter (in ‘“‘Pipes’’) quite a few years ago. Let's see, he writes Anno Domino 1913: “Backward, turn backward, 0 Time in thy flight; make me a young budding pitchman again just for tonight."’ “As I wrote in 1913: ° “A vendor was driving a trap, “And a horse. To the vehicle strapped ‘Was a sign which did say: MEMBER OF P., P. A.’— “Did be gather much kale? “Sure! = ““Giddap!” “Or even: “Said the lady demonstrator to “The freshie who'd just called her ‘Lon’, “If you don’t go away “Some ‘big, strong P. I. A. “Man will spank you! “That's all! “‘Skiddo!"’ “And various others (P. P. A.—Pitchmen’s Protective Association). George M. Reed pipes: yeas ago I made my first pitch a: 0... off of John McCloskey’s box. I was then selling the L. & K. suspender and belt—had been working doorways and was anxious to get started working high. John coached me. I will here relate a little instance: John was selling the ball scope and was selling a lot of “This month, geven Wellston, them. In some way a purchaser broke one and on seeing it filled with water he came up to McCloskey and said: ‘I want to ask you a question.’ ‘Well,’ John said, ‘what is it?’ The man said: ‘What kind of water do you use to fill that magnifying glass with?’ ‘Well, now,’ John said, ‘that is a secret, but I will tell YOU.’ He leaned down and whispered to him: ‘Boiled ice water. Don't you know how clear ice is? The man said, ‘Well, I'll be darned, I never thought of that,’ and he purchased an other scope and walked off. Wayne Garrison, light-weight ehampion gummie worker, has bought himself a new coupe. Wayne says since some street preachers objected to him parking his car in front of their ‘bunk’ he decided he'd better get a car without a ‘red devil’ on it. I wonder where Shorty Hays, the gummie worker, is? (Do you remember Sidney (0.) Fair four years ago, Shorty?) Hurrah for the association being started by the DeVores. New members are coming fine. All together, boys; together we boost, divided we bust.’ Here’s the way, in part, that Dewitt Shanks sizes up the association idea: “Bill, as I surmise (by the mentions you have made in *Pipes’) the position vou are placed in relative to an organization, with so many of the fellows sending different views, or trying to start one, I will offer a little suggestion regarding principles and some things I think it should utidertake to do. Each member should be issued a card, with name, etc., on one side and on the back of it about ten of the principles for which the organization stands, somewhat as follows: Clean, legitimate merchandise. To sell im a cleffii and gentlemanly manner. To keep locations clean at all times and net to obstruct traffic. Te co-operate with officials in trying to meet local ordinances governing traffic problems To try and have each customer satisfied. Not to knock local merchants or thelr merchandls se or prices. Not to work in loud voice or tn a boisterous manner. To observe the adage, ‘business econducted honestly is the best policy.’ To boost the good points of communities—not cnock them. To following a ‘Golden Rule’ motto of ‘Do unto other pitchmen as you would have them do unto you.’ The organization could send out form letters to ‘city fathers’ and chiefs and acquaint them with the organization and its purposes, Get an attorney of reputation as counsel and use his name on all stationery. Issue cards to mé@inbers for three-month periods only. Solicit reports of misconduct of members—if too many* complaints are received take up the cards of the offending parties or don't issue them new ones. I suggest making Cincinnati headquarters and that a lot be rented there and opened to the boys coming thru that section at any time—without allowing anyone to ‘homestead’ on it. Compile data on cities, towns, etc., by States, separately and keep (Continued on page 122) any.
