But don’t let it bother you. Any embarrassment will be on our side. And we’re willing to take the chance.
All you stand to lose is three cents and a half hour. To gain, a more interesting and helpful SCOUTING.
What I mean is, you’re No. 1 man on our Board of Experts and your opinion is very important to us.
We know that you have one, that you make up your mind very quickly as you thumb an issue as to whether a page seems to interest you, whether you’ll read it or keep thumbing. Finally, whether it was worth your time, likely to help you in _your_ Scouting work.
We can’t talk with you personally about your ideas, and a long questionnaire would probably send you scooting, so here’s a plan to do it the easy way. It may look sketchy to you, but it will really help us a lot.
Here’s how it works—when you have finished reading this issue—that is, all of it you feel the urge to read—turn back to this page and use the contents column as your survey blank. Put checks opposite each article in the columns that best describe your reaction. Then write any comment you wish to add in that small space at the bottom, note your Scouting position, cut off the Contents strip on the dotted line, slip it into an envelope and mail to us.
I hope we will hear from you. It’ll be a real Good Turn to all your fellow Scouters.
