Another thing I'd like to state is this: Some reader made a remark about not publishing any of Verne's works. I say you should. Why should any such great author be disregarded in so good a magazine? And is it not interesting to note that some of his stories have become actual realizations? Even Poe's should be published. All those dead authors whose stories would be considered good were they living. Why should any person ask not to have such good stories in your magazine? Perhaps there are some people who would enjoy them, but do not have the means nor time to buy these great works in book form. Think it over, ye Ed., think it over.
And now, to finish up, I'll say: are there any readers like me—a girl—or do only men and boys read Astounding Stories?—Gertrude Hemken, 5730 So. Ashland Ave., Chicago, Ill.
Short—and Sweet
Dear Editor:
Congratulations! Have followed up every issue of Astounding Stories and have found them the best yet. I have one fault to find and that is you do not publish Astounding Stories often enough. Thirty days is too far between.—Bernard Bauer, 235 Holland St., Syracuse, N. Y.
Yes Sir!
Dear Editor:
I read Astounding Stories all the time, although I'm just a boy. I think they're O. K. They give me a great "kick."
I think "The Moon Master" was the best story I ever read. Please ask Mr. Diffin to write more like it.
But then all the stories are really peppy.—Jack Hudson, St. Mark's School, Southborough, Massachusetts.
