We shall eagerly seek the best modern fiction and poetry, particularly from American sources.In fact, everything that makes a background for simple, wholesome, charming, enlightened living will be eagerly sought for. And whatsoever is young or wise, purposeful or beautiful will find a hearty welcome in The Touchstone magazine." The magazine is in very good condition.
