Because couldn't you stand to Here's our plan. We publish a quarterly magazine, Utopian Eyes, which is a journal of our own communal experiment in San Francisco (Kerista Village). it also has listings and articles on other groups and individuals elsewhere doing other alternative centers and experiments. Right now we've subtitled our magazine “A Journal of the World's Best-Kept Secret” because so few people have ever heard of what we, or our friends and associates, are doing. But -- we've discovered two very important facts. 1) A very high percentage of those relatively few people who have read Utopian Eyes [U.E.] have been profoundly and positively influenced by it. Quite a few members of Kerista Village found their way here through reading U.E.; many people in other groups have made initial contact with their current communal family partners via U. E. ; still others have been excited. stimulated, and charged with renewed optimism by it. 2) Owners and managers of many “outlets" (stores, libraries. co-ops, coffee houses. etc.) are very happy to give away complimentary (free) copies of U.E. to customers. They know it contains good ideas and information; that it helps people find each other; and it's a nice premium. (We’ve discovered this locally, in the San Francisco Bay Area, and all over the country where our caravans have visited.) Now. put this all together and you can begin to see what we’re getting at. We'd like to get complimentary copies of U.E. distributed from every single outlet that is willing to carry them, because there's no telling when or where a person will pick one up, take it home. open it . . . and sud- denly have that EUREKA! experience. We can't do it all ourselves, from here in San Francisco. And so, we're hoping you’ll help us in this plan . . . by be- coming a Utopian Eyes distribution agent. This means talking to your local storekeepers, librarians, or co-op committee, telling them what this idea and publication are about, and asking them if you can supply them with some amount of U.E.s each issue to distribute to their customers. (The amount would be as many as they can comfortably handle.) We can supply you, free of charge, with as many copies of the magazine as you request for the outlets you’ll be servicing. What's in this for you? What’s in it for us is obvious . . . we're looking for more commune members, and exposure to our magazine is one of the best ways we have to find them. We’re also dedicated to the ideal of bringing people together as friends and partners «- “Utopian matchmaking” -- in other places, whether as Keristans starting their own centers or as non-Keristans doing anything else communal or cooperative, Helping people meet and make new friends makes us feel good. make a few more real, deep friends? Or even a lot of them? As a U.E. distribution agent, you’ll have something around which to make new friends like you've never had before. There's nothing like ideal-based friendships, and we'll vouch for that. U. E. is the perfect “text” or reference material from which to start a Utopian study group or informal rap group of any kind. And, what's more, any group, center or activity you become involved with connected to Utopian ideals will be described in the magazine . . . so you’ll actually be distrib- uting your own flyer. Of course, you might want to do this out of the sheer goodness of your heart, or as a hobby, or to keep busy (although it won't actually take too much time) . . . but there's no harm having a personal investment in the energy output, either. All you’ll have to do is open up your local outlets by talking to the right people (you can even give them this notice to read), tell us how many copies of each issue you’ll need, stamp the magazines we send you “complimentary”, take them to the outlets and see that they're placed where people will see them. and let us know how it’s going. We'd suggest you start with one box (250 copies) and then let us know if you need more. (Remember, they’re good for three months.) Some of our friends who have been doing this out of a small town in Oregon are able to distribute thousands! So -- Whaddya think? is it a deal? We hope you'll take us up on this opportunity to put a little of your time and energy into something that can improve the quality of all our lives. ‘It's easy to get an ink pad and a rubber stamp saying “COMPLIMENTARY” at an omce supply store. If you can’! find such a stamp, you can have one made; if you can't do either for some reason, let us know and we'll help out. Send in this coupon . . . and, we'd enjoy hearing from you personally as well. YES! l'd like to be a distribution agent for Utopian Eyes in my area. Please send me boxes of the current issue.
