  Members who criticised the present editor for severity during thechairmanship of the critical department are invited to take a vicariousrevenge this month, observing the uncensored remarks of the presentjuvenile chairman concerning our pathetic ignorance. Of us Master Galpinsays: "when the author approaches involved or technical subjects, heshows clearly the unfortunate circumstance that he has never profited byan advanced education." This certainly should purge us of all suspicionof conducting THE UNITED AMATEUR on too Olympian a level, although thecritic qualifies his dictum by conceding that we realise our own crudityand are striving in our old age to acquire at least the rudiments of anelementary education. In the course of a few years we hope to guaranteeour readers an official organ practically free from the grosser errorsof spelling and grammar: meanwhile, _vivat Galpinius parvulus_!
