The only editorial policy of THE GLEBE isthat embodied in its declaration of absolutefreedom of expression, which makes for a rangebroad enough to include every temperament fromthe most radical to the most conservative, the onlyrequisite being that the work should have unmistakablemerit. Each issue will be devoted exclusivelyto one individual, thereby giving him an opportunityto present his work in sufficient bulk tomake it possible for the reader to obtain a muchmore comprehensive grasp of his personality than isafforded him in the restricted space allotted by theother magazines. Published monthly, or more frequentlyif possible, THE GLEBE will issue twelveto twenty books per year, chosen on their meritsalone, since the subscription list does away with theneed of catering to the popular demand that confrontsevery publisher. Thus, THE GLEBE canpromise the best work of American and foreignauthors, known and unknown.
The price of each issue of THE GLEBE will varywith the cost of publication, but the yearly subscription,including special numbers, is three dollars.

How he got there it is not easy tosay, but he cannot be reached either from above orbelow. Short ladders, ropes and sticks show thatattempts have been made to save the unknown person,but without success.
It seems that the unhappy man has been in thatdesperate position a long time. A considerable crowdhas already collected, extremely varied in composition.There are venders of cold drinks; there is awhole little bar behind which the bartender skipsabout out of breath and perspiring—he has moreon his hands than he can attend to; there are peddlersselling picture postal cards, coral beads, souvenirs,and all sorts of trash. One fellow is stubbornly tryingto dispose of a tortoise-shell comb, which isreally not tortoise-shell. Tourists keep pouring infrom all sides, attracted by the report that a catastropheis impending—Englishmen, Americans, Germans,Russians BU KİTABI OKUMAK İÇİN ÜYE OLUN VEYA GİRİŞ YAPIN!
