****** EDITORIAL EMANATIONS ******

PLEASE NOTE: The last lines at the bottom of the in- side back cover will show you when your particular subscrip- tion ends according to our records. Many of you subscribe for one issue at a time and forget when the next one is ready whether you have subscribed or not. This notation, which will hereafter appear in each issue, will tell you how many you have coming if any. Further, you can help me to help you if you will subscribe to the next issue as soon as you receive the last one on your current subscription. Of course it would help even more to pay 2 or 3 in advance.

Several have commented again on the number of typo- graphical errors in our pages. You will just have to for- give them. It takes a great deal of time just to organize and type the material in the magazine--so much so that my wife being deprived of my company evening after evening says she wishes I had never started the project. Its all a one man (girl?) job and I just havent got time to go back over every page to check and correct. Anyway I am sure you would rather have the time spent on material rather than on typographical perfection.

One of the complications in putting out TRANSVESTIA the way it has to be done (see pg. 66, No. 3) is guessing how many pages a letter or an article will take. Those of you who submit material could help greatly if you would type it within a space of 4 3/4 x 6 1/2 which is the size of the page you are reading. Then I will be able to count and project where the article will end and it will be much easier to organize the issue.

Flease do not forget to fill out, tear out, and mail out the Popularity Poll on pages 79 and 80 immediately fol- lowing this section. I cant please everybody but I want to disappoint as few as possible. I need to have some measure of the type of material likes by the majority of the read- ers, so please take a few minutes to fill out the form.
