tion. If this letter is a 'knocker,' don't mind it. My opinion isn't worth much. But I do want to see WEIRD TALES, in especial, go big. Wishing you all sorts of good luck—Joseph Faus, 408 First National Bank Building, Miami, Fla."

"My dear Mr. Baird: Have read all the issues to date of your unique magazine. Some of them were good, some excellent, and some were—well, just tales. However, you have gained a reader just the same, who is fed up on the wishy-washy tales in the average magazine. You deserve the acme of success for your courage in taking the radical step that you have, and all best wishes for that success.—Ralph S. Happel, 93 State St., Albany, N. Y."

"Dear sirs: I want to congratulate you on the wonderful book your company is putting out. In this month's issue 'The Cup of Blood' was a corker. It was one of the most interesting stories in the book.—Thomas J. Harris, 83 Kingston Ave., Brooklyn, N. Y."

"Dear Mr. Baird: Allow me to express, again, my appreciation for the kind of story WEIRD TALES stands for. As soon as I get definitely located, I intend to show my appreciation in a more substantial way by subscribing for this magazine. I have all the numbers except the first, and am thus proving my right to be a WEIRD TALES fan.—Walter F. McCanless, Wadesboro. N. C."

"My dear Editor: The readers in The Eyrie are all enthusiasts, no doubt, but they can't beat me in voicing my praise of your new book. . . . Poe is the best of this kind I have yet read, but weird stories are hard to get, and, being especially interested in ancient Egypt, I enjoyed 'The Hall of the Dead' the most. What do you suppose E. E. L. of Chicago considers Poe's 'supreme tale'? . . The present-day conventions in movies, stories and drama are downright hokum. Why? They never consider the occult at all. They must have a happy ending. The editor says so. Don't you think people are about fed up on the same old stories day by day? Why did O. Henry make such a hit? Not from a weird standpoint, of course, but his stories travel along life's path as only life itself would and can!—Godfrey Lampert, Jasper, Ind."

"Mr. Edwin Baird: I started reading your youthful magazine at its first appearance, and, like everybody else, I enjoy the stories, but I have a bit of criticism to make. . . . I am very fond of weird stories, tales of terror and mystery, but it would never do for anyone to read this type of story only and continuously. What we read has a vital part in moulding our thoughts and life, and too much of this morbid stuff would drive a person insane. . . The most terrifying of stories are those which suggest the horrors of insanity, of the premature pronouncing of death and premature burial and the dead-seeming form of catalepsy. With the thought of these brought out in a story, the afterthought would be, 'What if it should happen to me!' So I suggest that in closing the magazine each month you have some story practical and wholesome in nature, so that we readers can read it last and sleep without dreams that are frightful. If not a story of that kind, then print a page of jokes (but I fear they would be read first, not last). For proof that WEIRD TALES is strong stuff, my mother (who is usually bored by the usual kind of stories and goes to sleep reading them) is able to stay awake long enough to read W. T.—Lee Andrews, 220 Minerva St., Indianapolis, Ind."

"Dear Sir: As I have been a constant reader of your magazine for some
