e the readers of Astounding Stories to join us. After reading
this pick up your pen or take the cover from your typewriter and
send in an application for membership to our Secretary, Raymond A.
Palmer, 1431-38th St., Milwaukee, Wisconsin, or to our President,
Aubrey Clements, 6 South Hillard St., Montgomery, Alabama. They
will forward application blanks to you and you will belong to the
only organization in the world that is like it.

The Club was formed by twenty young men from all over the U. S. We
have a roll of almost 100, all over the world. Its expressed
purpose has been to help the cause of Science Fiction, and to
increase the knowledge of Science. It also affords the advantage of
being able to express your ideas in all fields.

The Preamble of the Constitution which we have worked out reads:
"We, the members of this organization, in order to promote the
advancement of Science in general among laymen of the world through
the use of discussion and the creation and exchange of new ideas,
do ordain and establish this organization for the Science
Correspondence Club."

Article Two reads: "The institution will remain an organization to
establish better co-ordination between the scientifically inclined
laymen of the world, regardless of sex, creed, color, or race.
There will be no restrictions as to age, providing the member can
pass an examination which shall be prepared by the membership
committee."

The Club will also publish a monthly bulletin, to which members may
contribute. It will also publish clippings, articles, etc., dealing
with science.

The membership will have no definite limit and the correspondence
will be governed by the wishes of each member.

Need more be said?

I almost forgot to say that we have two of the best Science Fiction
authors as active members, and three more who are doing their best,
but because of such work they cannot be active.

I hope my appeal bears fruit and that we shall hear from you
soon.--Conrad H. Ruppert.

Dear Editor:

Last night I was passing a newsstand and saw your magazine. I
bought it then and there. I do not read any other stories except
the fantastic stories. Astounding Stories looks all right, but may
I make a suggestions? Why not increase the size of the magazine to
that of Miss 1900 or Forest and Stream? It w
