Frederick c. Boyer. well-known
Cleveland editor, told at a recent
banquet newspaper story:
A Medina editor died" he said,
and was, of course, directed to
ascend to the Abode of the Just.
But during the ascent the editors
journalistic curiosity asserted Itself
and he said:
Is it permitted for one to have a
loox at-er-the other placer"
Certainly was the gracious
reply, and accordingly decent to
the other place was made. Here the
editor found much to interest him.
He scurried about and was soon lost
to view.
His angelic escort got worried
at last, and began a systematic
search for his charge. He found
him at last seated before q furnace.
