on the electron during fifteen seconds Earth time. That is
wrong, because electrons revolve several thousand times per
second around their nucleus or sun, so by the time Karl
Danzig fished out Aaron and Nanette they would be as old as
the hills. I would like to know if the story, "Marooned
Under the Sea," was found near New Zealand or is it just
fiction? Another thing I want to say is that you have too
many serials.--Geo. Brandes, 141 South Church St.,

_This Is Treason!_
Dear Editor:
This is the first time I have written to the "Corner," but I
wished to call your attention to a story I have just
finished reading in another magazine--"Skylark Three," by
Edward E. Smith. I think it is by far better than anything I
have read in your magazine. I thought you might be able to
get something on this line.
Of course, some of the theories are rather far fetched. I
think this is the best story I have read for years, and hope
that if Smith writes any more, I will be able to read
them.--D. R. Guthrie, P. O. Box 23, Copeland, Idaho.

premier magazine in the Science Fiction field.

wonderful time in helping the club to be bigger and better.
He will be as wel
