...confine your letters published to criticisms of your paper, corrections of news items, etc. and leave out letters such as those of Mary Elizabeth Robinn in TIME, Feb. 7?

But since then the latitude permitted "educational" matter has increased and Mr. Macfadden has doubtless forgotten the $2,000 fine he paid in the dismal dawn of this porno-glorious century...
