very new readers might not know who Clark Ashton Smith is! We've come a long way since his stories in Wonder. There hasn't been anything quite like it since.

   Le Vombiteur: Some nerve, putting in something brazenly dated half a year old. What do you think of the FAPA officers now? If you still want a revision, what do you think of this set up: editor, Secretary-treasurer, and manuscript bureau manager. These three to act as executive board, with the editor as chairman.

   Mikros: I refuse to be fooled. This is only an advertisement for Sweetness and Light. Fie on you.

    I would like to get in on a party like that.

   Ramblings and Sus Pro: (Hold your hats and keep you arms inside the car. Jack Speer's theme song for the last maling seems to have been "Doing the Reactionary", For which Jack is not to be blamed too much. It takes the utmost effort for a government clerk to keep from being swallowed up in the bureaucracy within which he works.
