Year in and year out this eager and aspiring host has favored us with a multitude of comic drawings. ‘These have, in most cases, been unavailable for publication, and JupGe has been under the painful necessity of returning them. correspondence has grown out of these rejections which has not infrequently led to pleasant friendships, and now and then an amateur has developed his talent and ultimately joined Jupce’s regular staff of contributors. Now we propose to do something to make amends for these years of apparent hostility to the amateur.
