Richard Seaver begins his letter by acknowledging Herbert’s complication regarding the usage of Coca Cola’s slogan, “ It’s the Real thing”, in the book Diary of a Harlem Schoolteacher. Seaver noted with a calm and mocking tone that, in order to avoid any confusion, salesmen in bookstores were notified to inform customers, who bought the book, that they wanted the book instead of the beverage (Seaver 2). The representative is using a calm and mocking tone, which shows that the issue was taken lightly and not seriously. Seaver does not state that the slogan would be removed from the advertisement.…

My idea is a compromise, which involves each state, it includes bicameral legislature, with one part proportional representation and the other half involving each state having one representative. I know you are a busy man, but I hope that you will consider voting for the good of…

When Edna continued with her new way of thinking she felt more like a person since her separation with society and Leonce. When she started to like other men as a married woman shows how serious she was about changing her lifestyle. This was another reason why I support her, men who wrongfully treat a woman should not be with them. I think that was a great decision by Edna, to find someone else who actually cared about their relationship rather than a material. Edna just wanted to be alone half of the time or get a dose of emotional attention that she never had living with Leonce.…
