Mainly from curiosity than for anything else I bought a copy from the news- stand and am at a loss to understand why it should have been barred. I agree with you that only @ narrow-minded bigot or super-prude could see any licentious drawings or material therein. T have shown this number to any number of people and everyone commented on fact that it was wholesome fun and failed to see wherein it could offend anyone.

I think JupcE is the best humorous weekly published and I know that you find it unnecessary to stoop to low sex gestion to keep up your sales.

Misplaced Humor To the Editors of Juvce: Dear Sirs: I hate a crank, I despise a knocker. I have never had anything but praise for your editorial policy.
