CHAIN LETTER FAD
• HITS WINGHAM
The chain letter• craze which has
reached such large proportions in the
United States and: recently most Can-
adian cities has at last taken in Wing -
ham.
It is reported that many here have
received such letters and we believe
that in some cases it was carried on,
This chain letter business is suppos-
ed. to bring wealth to senders of alt
letters.
The idea at tfre outset was for each
nersoss, receiving a list of five narnes
to write his own at the bottom, cross
out the name' at the top, send that
person a dime and mail tiro letter to
five others. Then all he had to do
was sit back while the chain grew and
grew instil, theoretically speaking, lie
'got back more than $1000 in dimes
for this trouble.
The Post Office authorities are
sending all such letters when possible
to the dead tetter office. We under-
stand that is is not illegal, but that the
chances of success of *your dime to
arrow to over $1000 is about 2,000,000
to 1, providing all carried on the sys-
tem, which, of course, is not done.
