Excerpt from The Conning Tower Book: Being a Selection of the Best Verses Published in the Conning Tower
IT IS A source of daily wonder, the columnist's morn ing mail. For it is the mail, more than anything else, that makes the columnist's job a bright, romantic adventure instead of an irksome duty. It is gambling, and gambling on velvet. There may be nothing in the mail that is worth slitting an envelope for; there may be anything from anybody from anywhere.
