Here I am again! This time I'm offering suggestions. Let's
you and I and others get together and do something to these
chronic kickers. It seems I can't start to enjoy our
"Readers' Corner" without someone raising a halloo. Darn
it! Why in heaven's name do they buy A. S. if they don't
like it? They are not compelled to do so.
I also don't understand why people are knocking the size and
quality of the paper used. It suits me O. K. All the mags I
read are the same way, and I pay five cents more for them,
too!
I surely enjoyed Mr. Olog's letter in the March issue. Gee,
it gives one the creeps. I agree with him, too, that we
ought to have a little something about the authors. I'm sure
we'd all like to know a little more about these talented
persons.
"When the Mountain Came to Miramar" was a great deal to my
liking. I think it would be a great adventure to discover
some secret cave and explore it. Of course, I'd like to
wiggle out of danger, too, just like in story books.
I certainly wish to congratulate you on publishing "Beyond
the Vanishing Point." It just suited me to a "T."
Heretofore, all stories dealing with life upon atoms have
been "just another story," but this one beats all. I enjoyed
it to the utmost, and I congratulate Mr. Cummings on writing
my favorite kind of story.
All in all the March issue was indeed grand. If "Brown-Eyed
Nineteen from Coronado, Calif.," will send me her full name
and address, I'll promise to answer her letter immediately
upon receiving it.--Gertrude Hemken, 5730 So. Ashland Ave.,

_And So Do We_
Dear Editor:
It certainly is a swell idea of yours to answer letters to
"The Readers' Corner" personally instead of taking up a lot
of room answering them underneath as do most Editors. Not
only that, but it builds up a feeling of friendship, between
the Reader and the Editor, besides affording more room to
publish letters and avoiding some of the bad feelings
sometimes directed upon Editors when they do not publish
someone's letter.
Now, with your kind permission, I will burst into the little
(?) ring of discussion about size, reprints, covers, artists
and authors.
First, about the size and edges: The size is O. K., but I
wish you would chan
