The city editor of the Review
and "some of the correspondents"
are guilty of worrying the intelli-
gent "we," from Willow Fork by
.elling of Aunt Sarah Jane visit
Ing her sister Sal on Sunday. How
much does the Review pay this
I'VE" for telling US unintelligent
folks what not to write about; and
when did you receive the commits
sion of managing editor or edi-
tors? These are pert questions
but I have right to ask you to
SHOW me" your papers In order
that I may learn of your authority
to tell Us not to write this or that.
According to your article In last
issue of the Review regarding the
Bible discussion at institute, you
say:-"To trample on others rights
Is a crime and we would not have
christians commit It," No applica-
ton needed. Those who can see
let them read and those who
can read let them understand
Really, I am sorry for the intelll
gent reader of Willow Fork who
does not want to read of their
Aunt Sarah Jane visiting their
sister SAL" and In conclusion I will
suggest that you do not read such
Simple flImsey" articles, they will
worry you and cause you to fret
about the OH Review being con-
demned. Hence, do as I do-read
what suits you and quit; for some
like their aunt and some do not,
some are intelligent and some are
not; some read local items, some
the continued stories while some
walt for their neighbor to come
over on Sunday morning to spend
the day In telling the news In his
own style. Why not all this? Is 1t
not his or her privilege.
