A flood of letters to Tack in Amarillo reflects reader voices on column value and public commentary. Citizens urge preservation of Tack's column, grills on opera pricing, and advice for local events and garden topics amid small-town life.
A reader criticizes editing practices and defends the newspaper's editorial style. The letter argues the paper reaches many readers and recounts a moral about proofreading. It also challenges Globe accuracy on who started the gas company dispute and references City of Fort Worth rate cases.
Dear Tack letters recount a recent business college graduate seeking employment with stenography and bookkeeping skills but no experience. She offers to work briefly for a living wage until proficient enough for a higher salary, asking readers to aid in finding a job and promising payment from first week’s wages.
In Fort Worth the gas company dispute edges toward closure as Col Thompson readies to finish the case. Credit is urged for the workers who have faced knocks and criticism during the lengthy battle.
