TO OUR CONTRIBUTORS

Please return corrected set of galley proofs within 48 hours, if possible.

PROOF INSTRUCTIONS

Read the proofs carefully, comparing them with the enclosed
manuscript. Indicate corrections in pencil (not ink or red
crayon) on the margin of the proof, using the signs on the back
of this sheet. Be sure that you answer all queries indicated either
on the manuscript or on the galleys. Check carefully the place-
ment of illustrations or legends. Please do not write on the
manuscript.

AUTHORS' ALTERATIONS

Alterations made in proof are far more costly than most authors
suppose. Please keep all alterations down to the barest mini-
mum. Bear in mind that changing the length of any line means
the resetting of the remainder of the paragraph.

MAILING INSTRUCTIONS

The corrected proof should be returned to the Editorial Office
*together with the typescript*, by first-class mail if sent from the
New York—New England area, otherwise by first-class airmail,
Use the return envelope supplied.

OFFPRINTS

If offprints are desired, the order form on the next page must
be returned to the Editorial Office together with the corrected
galley proof.

The author of every main article will receive on request up to
ten complimentary copies of the issue of *Dædalus* in which his
article appears.

PROOFREADER'S MARKS

All proofreader's marks require double marking: (1) in the body of the text at the point of correction and (2) a corresponding mark in the margin which calls attention to the fact that a correction is involved in that line. Corrections marked only in the text are very easy to miss. The following is a list of proofreader's marks in general use, chiefly to be placed in the margins, and a sample of marked-up proof.

The Marked Proof Sheet

<table><tr><td colspan="2">Typographical Errors</td></tr><tr><td>The common marks used by proofreaders and typesetters are listed and illustrated here. If the writer feels the slight doubt of his ability to make clear his intention with them he can write on the margin a brief note to the typesetter explaining precisely what he wants done.</td><td></td></tr><tr><td>All corrections should be marked in the margins. Any correction not clearly marked outside the type area may not be seen.</td><td></td></tr><tr><td>The writer may refer to a dictionary for a complete list of proofreader's marks as well as a brief section on "Preparation of the Manual script.</td><td></td></tr><tr><td>For example, "Delete comma," "Spell out," etc</td><td></td></tr></table>
