Last week Editor Blossom pronounced the experiment a success. In the first month the black seal of an accepted story was broken to admit Borden Chase, a hydraulic engineer. Soon others were unmasked: a Chicago newshawk using the name Kimball Herrick; a Montana professor named Brassil Fitzgerald; Allen Vaughan Elston, previously unknown outside of the pulp magazines.

Dictator Kemal did not feel that assault and robbery of the Bordens was justified. They were under no suspicion as possible naval spies. Bright and early next morning, Turkish officers courteously conducted Professor and Mrs. Borden to the scenes of their molestation. When they identified the sentry and the six other soldiers these were promptly clapped under military arrest with promise of a rigorous court martial. To Professor Borden was returned his money, and Mrs. Borden was indemnified for her torn clothes...
