An inspiration seized the woman editor.
She knew that the way into newspaperdom

Jordan road, but she hadn't the heart to dis

throne of the dramatic critic.
"I'l tell you, she said, with side glance
at the unsuspecting young chief of the local
staff you write a nice letter to the city
editor. He is too busy to see you now, for
the first edition is just going to press but
you write a nice letter-the kind Jack likes
and maybe he will find place for you"
Thank you SO much. It's so sweet of
you. Which is the city editor? That one
Oh, isn't he handsome! Good-by."
She fluttered out. The typewriters
stopped their wild chatter for moment
and the first copy reader began counting
letters over again for six head.
1t was six months before she came into
the office again. But then it was with an
air of proprietorship beautiful to behold.
Il wrote the letter just as you said." she
explained to the woman editor, land Harry
