This is an easier task, as the artists need work far more than the authors, but still there are exceedingly few good Stf artists. We'll take it for granted that the ed. has got all his material, at a nominal cost, and is ready to compile his magazine. He has to do this, have it printed and out on the news stands all in set schedule, and then the letters from irate readers begin to pour in. Thus you have it. New magazines represent many weeks of patient hard work on the part of the editor and his staff. And so it is with despair that he reads the inevitable brick-bats that come pouring in asking why in h-- the ed. didn't jump into lake michigan.
