over coffee, get it down on paper and let's hear from
you. Bob and Frances, I'm waiting for you to pin his

A NOTE OF THANKS IS_ A BEAUTIFUL THING

I wonder if it could be possible to make an accurate
estimate of the number of hours of work that go into
making a success of the Hycroft sale each year.
Planning begins six months before the sale, and
before it is over dozens of people have put in
hundreds of hours of volunteer labor for which they
get no personal reward whatever except the knowledge
of a job well done. And rare it is, indeed, but very
lovely, to get a note such as the following:

B.C.Potters Guild:

I received my cheque in payment of sale of my
pots. I must commend the people who handled
that sale, real professional! They are under the
impression one of my pots was stolen. Not so.
All is correct and accounted for. I experimented
with earthenware with decoration, I learned a lot

there. However, live and leam. Thanks a million.

Yours respectfully,
A. Olson

(Thank you, Mr. Olson, from all of us who worked on
Hycroft) .
