Pressure

Sirs:

Re: FORTUNE

Answering your letter of Oct. 7, I am inclosing conditional subscription to the new publication, FORTUNE, with this qualification, however, that owing to extreme pressure of business on the Court, I may not be able to make up my mind within a month after the first issue, whether I will continue to be a subscriber or not. Two months will be sufficient. Please advise.

J. M. GRIMM

Supreme Court Des Moines, Iowa

Justices of Supreme Courts will be given two months in which to decide. All others must hazard a snap judgment.—ED. Dividends Sirs:

Enclosed herewith find check for $10 in payment for subscription to FORTUNE. If I enjoy this magazine to the same degree as I do TIME my investment will bring large dividends. . . .

With best wishes. . . .

Sincerely yours,

O. MAX GARDNER

State of North Carolina Governor's Office Raleigh, N. C.

For a Governor's prompt subscription and good wishes, all thanks.—ED. Chisolm Sirs: It is with great pleasure that I enclose herewith the card sent to me for my signature in connection with your new monthly volume. . . . You may enter me as an Original Subscriber and send me a bill for ten dollars. Whatever TIME gets out is bound to be worth while. My name is spelled CHISOLM—not CHISHOLM. B. OGDEN CHISOLM

Ridgefield, Conn.

Passing

Sirs:

I have your favor of Oct. 7 containing the announcement of the new magazine FORTUNE and I do not feel like returning the postcard as I can easily purchase a copy at the newsstands when passing. . . .

HENRY A. B. PEEKHAM

Boston, Mass.

FORTUNE will be found on few newsstands, if any.—ED. 76 Sirs:

Your favor of the 7th announcing FORTUNE just received suggests a forthcoming publication which should prove to be most acceptable to the intelligent reading public. However, I am nearing my seventy-sixth birthday and while I hope to continue TIME, I am cutting off magazines. ... I wish you every success and regret that

I am not starting out life instead of ending it. O. A. COLEMAN The Georgia Loan and Trust Co. Macon, Ga.

Price

Sirs:

Enclosed find my check for $10 for one years subscription to FORTUNE. If it's one half as good as TIME it will be worth the price.

W. B. BENNETT

Frederick, Md.

But the price of TIME will not be raised to $20.—ED.

Do Not

Sirs:

I received your letter concerning the new publication named FORTUNE.

I do not care to subscribe for it.

MRS. C. H. DURGIN

Manchester, N. H.

Type

Sirs:

. . . Moreover, I do not think we need another journal of the type you describe.

WARREN K. MOOREHEAD

Phillips Academy Andover, Mass.

FORTUNE aims to be a type unto itself.—ED.
