AWord to the Wise
Bv Mrs. Fronk Colby

An unruly group of terrible
twisters" got lashing from an
11-year- -old youngster, who sub
mitted his method of mastering
several Word-teaSers.
The scholarly essay was penned
by R. B. of Los Angeles and he
gave us full right, as he put it,
Ito instruct the million other
people who never write them
right"
IT call them terrible twist
ers,'" the young man wrote.
Take angle and angel, for in
stance. They used to mess me
up every time I wrote them. and
I know a lot of grownups who
still can't spell them right. But
they're easy now, because I have
found system"
So Let's take angle and angel
and put them in their proper
places under the R. B. system.
"A heavenly angel will never
be miSpelled." the young man
explained, "if you remember
that angel means love Since
an angel means love the last
letter has to be an l.' Once
you know how to spell angel with
l-for-love on the end of the
word, then you don't have any
trouble spelling angle"
To you, r. B., goes a copy of
the Colby Practical Handbook
of Better English.
Another terrible twister"
listed by R. B. concerned write"
and right"
when you write, you use
words; so all you have to do
is make w the first letter when
you write write It's so simple
that I don't know why my Eng
liSh teacher has not thought of
it,"
Thanks, R. B. And shame on
you, R. BIS English teacher, Who
ever you may be!

IN AGREEMENT - One
morning, when Author The

zine editor, he received a
short story from a new con-
tributor. Accompanying the
manuscript was a note which
read:
Dear Sir: Although I am
not one to be boastful, I be-
lieve the inclosed story to
be an important literary
work, and my best effort to
date. I feel you would be
performing a service to
American letters by print
ing it,"
Dresser read the manu-
script and returned it with
a note:
Dear Sir" it stated, "1
have read your story and 1t
is superb. I do not consider
your appraisal boastful. If
anything. you are modest in
your estimate. This story
will rank as one of the mas
terpieces of the goth CEN
tury. In fact, I think so
highly of it, that I wrote it
myself three years ago!"
