PLUTO                                                             21
                      WHO SAID THAT?

                  From New York City...
Dear Mr. Manning:-
   Thanks for the copy of PLUTO for July. I enjoyed it very much and was delighted with the several references to F.F.M. & F.N., acknowledging their importance in the fantastic firmament. "PLUTO" is quality stuff, too.
   The winged letters is an awfully attractive idea. I might swipe it. (P.5) "The Uncivilized" and "Gloobermory" kept me away from my work for twenty minutes.
   Argosy's editor, G.W. Post, was gratified by remarks on P. 25.
                         Sincerely,
                 Mary Gnaedinger, editor
      Famous Fantastic Mysteries & Fantastic Novels.

Mary, Mary, quite complimentary,
   How do your magazines grow?
"FANTASTIC MYSTERIES' & 'FANTASTIC NOVELS"
   May they soon become as popular as PLUTO.

Dear Mr Mannings--
   25¢ for PLUTO # 4,5,6. The #3 was still an improvement over #2. Keep it up!
                R.D. Swisher.

                 Short and snappy,
                 Makes us happy.

Dear Maurice & PLUTO,
   Enclosed find 50¢ for a year subscription to PLUTO. I don't know what to think of the mag. It's nutty, it's crazy, and foolish; also a bunch of crack-pots must be on the staff; also screwballs. But for some reason I love it. It's pretty well-what shall I say--SWELL! Keep up the good work. 
                 as ever,
             Virgil Balcom

Virgil, old boy:

We're a bunch of LOONY-BIRDS.
   If you wish to join our society,
   Go where it is nice & quiety,
And repeat these words:
   Whoopie Doopie,
   I'm a Kewpie!!
********************************************************
                 From Hastings, Minn.
Dear Eds:
   Received #3 PLUTO, positively SUPER!
                 Scienti-Comically, yours
                     Phil Bronson.

Phil's terse little letter,
Makes us feel better & better.
