Book Review by: Anonymous     

Original Author:
       

         A lady once
wrote a long story.She sent it ot a famous editor.After a few weeks the story was returned to her.The lady was angry.She wrote back to the editor:
       "Dear Sir:Yesterday you sent back a story of mine. How do you know that that the story is not good? You did not read it. Before Isent you the story,I pasted together pages 18,19and 20.This was a test to see whether you would read the story.When the story came back yesterday,the pages were still pastedtogether. Is this the way you read all the stories that sent to you?"
       The editor wrote back"Dear Madam: At breakfast when I have an egg,I don''t have to eat the whole egg in order to discover that it is bad."
