TOO MANY SEE TRYING to write for and/or edit
ONLY SERIOUS an HONEST metaphysical or
SIDE OF LIFE quasi - religious- type magazine
can be pretty discouraging.

After more than 10 years of telling readers
that Life is your friend and won't bite you --
if you treat it as if it were your partner instead of the Garden of Eden serpent -- we've
still got readers who get huffy enough at our
facetiousness to cancel their subscriptions --
and go back to borrowing their neighbors'.

But at the risk of losing any hypochondriacs still on our mailing list, we're going to
insist on repeating: Life is NOT an avenging
angel, waiting to decapitate all who transgress from a straight and narrow path of tears
and sorrow. Life is closer to you than your
skin, as responsive to your desires as your
vocal cords, and you will NOT be punished if
you spend your years having fun and being coinfortab le.

There are those who say our Auditorials are
mere rhetoric -- nothing more. One even compared
them to a Drill Sergeant who marched his squad
backward and forward on the drill field, with
no knowledge of where they were going. We disagree that this was wasted motion; if the men
went into battle as well-trained soldiers and
came home safely, home was the destination the
Sergeant had set for every marching order he'd
given, which had seemed so worthless to a bunch
of raw recruits who knew all about winning
wars 15 minutes after their first K-P duty.

THE ABERREE does not set itself up as an oracle on how to live or how to die, nor does
it sell any expensive systems to suckers seeking a way out before they've found a way in. If
we fail to pound a drum or noisy dishpan over
some pet theory, it's because we can't get
emotionally excited over what is only theory.

Every year, there are thousands of books
printed which seek to "sell" the public someone's idea of what Life is all about. Most of
these are very serious, tedious tomes. Authors
of these books seem to think it necessary to
write with a chaw of dictionary in their mouth
and a thesaurus at their elbow. If they can 't
find words grave enough, or sufficiently confusing, they create new ones. By their neology do they seek immortality as "Wise ".

Some years back, we had a contributor who
wrote readable, pleasant letters, but his articles were couched in such cryptographic
phraseology that we found it puzzling. After
trying to wade thru his material, we suggested
he adopt his "letter style" for his articles,
but he refused, contending he couldn't "write
down" to his readers, without destroying the
"image" they had of him. We felt fortunate --
albeit down-graded -- that he condescended to
"write down" to us so we could concoct our own
image by what he said and not by what we didn't understand.

APPARENTLY, the main prerequisite of any ology
or religion is a long face. If you smile,
you're not taking it seriously enoughï if you
laugh, some group will suspect ridicule. With
the transition from vaudeville to highly-commercialized radio and television, such characters as Will Rogers, Mark Twain, Eddie Cantor,
and other comedians who didn't face their audiences in trembling lest they prick the skin
of a supersensitive member of a minority group,
have become passe: Today, we have Beatles,
swoon-happy sensationalists, but no laughter.

Everyone is taking everything so darn' seriously that it's funny. Seriously funny. Even
we think it's time to get seriously concerned
over a society afraid to laugh at itself.

DEAR EDITOR 17
POLICY: Don't take it so damn' seriously. The infiniteness of Man is not reduced to a "split infinity"
by wars, taxes, or "experts" who seek to sell
him what he already has in an infinite amount.

SUB-POLICY: We reserve the right to change our minds
from issue to issue, or even from page to page,
if we desire.

SUB-SUB-POLICY: Each Man has the inherent right to be
his own and only "Authority "
SUB-SUB-SUB-POLICY -- We have no objection to "educated
guesses" about Man's destiny -- if there's no
price tag to it, and if the guesser has no objection to our guessing he's only guessing.
