Literary

I sing of simple people and the hardier virtues, by Associated Stuffed Shirts & Company, Incorporated, 358 West 42d Street, New York, brochure enclosed
   of Christ on the Cross, by a visitor to Calvary, first class
   art deals with eternal, not current verities, revised from last week's Sunday supplement
   guess what we mean, in The Literary System, and a thousand noble answers to a thousand empty questions, by a patriot who needs the dough.

And so it goes.
   Books are the key to magic portals. Knowledge is power. Give the people light.
   Writing must be such a nice profession.
   Fill in the coupon. How do you know? Maybe you can be a writer, too.
