April 1, 1933. Page 18 Dear Bill: As you know I am done with so ' nool the first of June and while several members of the faculty may be glad to see me go, I leave several Lawrence merchants almost heartbroken. I liked the description you gave lae of your Job when you were here for hone coming and while I have not had experience which would make me a meteer in Chicago, yet if you find the boss in a good humor tell him you know a snappy lad who can do anything and that a reasonable salary would secure his services. Now listen, I have got to get to work. Your dear little school ohum has placed a pin and ring where they will do the most good for everybody conoerned-- and although this Is an asset while I am in school, yet I really feel that after I get out of school the sccount shifts to the other side. As the end of school approaches, my banker is getting touchy about giving me new checkbooks and dad is acting like he was the dean of men. Anyway you look at It I must snatch a prosperous career out of the blue sky. None of this working up step by step as I want to take the elevator. Let me hear the good news as soon as possible.
