Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Smith Monthly, Vol. 32: October, 1923
Of the material that is offered us, or that we request, we try, finally, to choose What to a majority of the editors seems the most worthy of attention, and the most readable. For the result, may we observe in passing that genius is a rare plant, and that maturity is an ideal, rather than a characteristic, of the young? But we believe in the Monthly, and in the public to whom we offer it. And we believe that the more widely the Monthly is read, the broader will its intrinsic interest be enabled to grow, and the more worth reading will it become.
