...much that 30 minutes after receiving the March 2 copy I am letting you know how much I like the color-reproductions of modern art which you inserted between pages 42 & 43.

The President started this Atlantic-to-Gulf waterway with five million relief dollars, allotted $200,000 more when that ran out.

She ran slowly through a warm afternoon, pointing four out of eight times where birds we're not. Equipoise, the second setter of the meeting, did no better...
...Sexual Inversion, from which was to grow his mighty Studies in the Psychology of Sex, London police promptly arrested the bookseller and confiscated all available copies of this volume. Year later Frank A. Davis of Philadelphia, as a personal favor to Dr. Ellis, began printing his Studies, which eventually ran to seven volumes and retailed for $30 per set. Mr. Davis was very strict about selling only to the professions. Since the War, however, there has been such a great change in the U. S. attitude toward sex that Bennett A. Cerf, head of Manhattan's Random House, felt...
