...Anon., I take it, is a faithful reader of the "Saturday Review," perhaps even that legendary figure, the Oldest Living Subscriber. From his letter, one would never think that he regularly perused those delightful chatter columns of Christopher Morley and P. Quercus which are distinguished features of the "Review." For he seems to be one of those unfortunate souls that are devoid of the sense of humor that characterizes the work of Messrs. Morley and Quercus...
