ously awaiting the next issue of "our mag." It certainly does seem a long time between issues. When are you going to start putting it on the stands twice a month? I know that thousands of Readers would bless the day you did it. Please keep up the good work; and I know you will, for the longer I read A. S. the more I enjoy it. The serial, "The Exile of Time," is a story par excellence. But I know the forthcoming sequel to "Dark Moon" will be a super-story. My idea of reading is that if a story is worth reading once it is worth reading twice, and I have never seen any story in your book that was not worth reading once. Nuff said. I will answer any letters written me. I hope to hear from plenty of Readers--C. G. Davis, 531 S. Millard, Chicago, Ill. _And Sequel It Has_ Dear Editor: I have just finished the May number of Astounding Stories, and want to send my contribution to "The Readers' Corner." The novelette, "Dark Moon," by Diffin, is rather an outstanding story, in my opinion. It is plausible and convincing, and the literary quality is high.

Harris, 1525 Bushnell Ave., South Pasadena, Cal. _I'm Afraid Not_ Dear Editor: I have read every one of your Astounding Stories and think there is no other magazine on the market like it. Only one kick: it doesn't appear often enough. I should like to see it every week; every two weeks, anyway. I like every story you print, and I think the size of your magazine is perfect. I have saved every issue I read, and now have seventeen of them. "Phalanxes of Atlans" and "Marooned Under the Sea" were especially good. "The Readers' Corner" is fine, but I don't like so many brickbats thrown. I should like to see more bouquets given to you. There is one thing I'd like to see you print. You probably have heard of the Fox Movietone picture, "Just Imagine," an interplanetary story of 1930. I
