publish in it only weird and add a few more good ghost stories and stories such as the Lord of the Liama that was a real story such as makes you want to sit up till you finish, Why not get away from Detective, Scientific, Outer-space & interplanterary stuff, the news rooms are full of those kind of magazine now, if the majority wants weird (not Horror or blood curdling mysteriies) and ghost stories something that is not on the same lines of reading that is wore out or so far a head in the future if it ever happens at all that nobody cares a darn about it, why give us stories we do not want give us the kind we do want that is why we buy them not because they are made to sell."

L. A. Chapin, of Aberdeen, South Dakota, writes: "As an art student and poet, may I say that your last three issues have been both a delight and an inspiration to me? . . . Lord of the Lamia is the best serial I have read to date. Not a dull spot throughout. The Hand of the O'Mecca in the April issue was also excellent."

Lucy M. Wilson, of Princeton, Illinois, writes: "Adding my voice to others that are asking for a reprint of The Eighth Green Man by G. G. Pendarves, is there any chance of its being reprinted soon?" [There is.—The Editor.]

Henry Kuttner, of Hollywood, California, writes: "Best story in your latest issue: The Bronze Casket. A damn good yarn. Nominations for reprints: A Mind in Shadow and The Ghosts of Steamboat Coulee."

Lester Anderson, of Hayward, California, writes: "The Man Who Was Two Men is the best thing Arthur Bernal has done."

Mrs. Grace Roberts, of Minneapolis, writes: "The Man Who Was Two Men has originality and humor. Let me add a special word of praise for the verses, An Empty House at Night and Dear Ghosts."

Ed. Camille, of Erie, Pennsylvania, writes: "Please discontinue such stories as The Death Cry. They don't belong in WT. Give us literary fantasy only."

J. Connell, of Lowell, Massachusetts, writes: "I'd like to see more stories of Jules de Grandin, Northwest Smith and Conan. Have Howard bring back Solomon Kane—he was great. Couldn't Quinn write a story with both Tom Carter and Jules de Grandin appearing in it?"
