This page has been proofread, but needs to be validated.

THE customary procedure is to limit the Editor to one page in a magazine of this kind, but ordinary rules are never applicable to an editor who is also a salesman.

It would be impossible to write individually to the thousands who replied to our letter of October tenth, but we assure you that we are gratified both by the number and quality of those replies. In fact, the biggest difficulty is in the sorting out of the material and using that which we feel will be the most interesting and instructive.

ANOTHER big job was that of bringing our mailing list up to date. So many changes occur—girls move, or get married, or change their positions—and it's very difficult to keep our files here in Chicago correct. In some instances we do not have any record at all. So after reading this issue you might show it to your operator friends and have them write in for their copy.

IF you have a good group picture of Comptometer operators that would be interesting to our friends on the other side of the world, send it along. We will gladly return original manuscripts or photos sent in if you desire.

If we have omitted anything you want, let us know. We are particularly interested in suggestions for offering a prize for best letters on your experience as a Comptometer operator, best poetry or prose submitted, or other interesting features.

We want you to feel that this is your magazine and it's the editor's job to please you.
