Show she caught an editor napping A very bright little woman who writes well and often for the magazines has caught an editor napping and a more jubilant woman I 1 have never seen she just seems to revel in her conquest not long asp the editor sent her a commission to write an article on a given topic she accepted and in a fortnight fora warded the manuscript back came a letter from the editor saying that eha had not treated the subject as he wished j and with some suggestions asked her to rewrite the article she was disappointed but with her disappointment came an idea now I 1 will test my theory that are editors who are not BO charp as people imagine said my lady and forthwith she prepared to put her scheme to trap her editorial friend ii motion she allowed her manuscript to lie in her desk for one month then untouched and without a eagle revision had the manuscript transferred by the typewriter with a sweet and gracious little note the manuscript in its new form went back to the editor with lt query Is this more to your idea of what the article should be in two days camo back the response the article as revved is exactly in accordance with my ideas which I 1 am glad I 1 was successful in making known 1 to yon oh that woman her life baa been sunshine after that day she has caught a prominent editor napping and the height of her ambition seems to be reached edward W boks letter |
