Dear Sir-
We took great pleasure in mailing you some copies of our May number six weeks ago. In it we published your beautiful poem “Slaves of the Drug.” We made it the main feature of the number, printing it right at the beginning, with decorative portrait of yourself. To our disappointment we have not heard a word from you about it. Did the number not meet with your approval? If so, would you tell us why not? We are anxious to please the friends who so kindly contributed to our Magazine,
With all kind wishes
Sincerely
Helen Woejeska
Associate Editor
