CORRESPONDENCE VIRTUES
Sir,-If there is one person more than another that we expect to set us an example in the virtues of correspondence it is our worthy Editor. Yet we find that a correspondent "Audio" writes reasoning that less than a quarter of The Listener's reading matter is being devoted to the feature of its professed object, and saying he regards this as an undue degree of divergence from our objective. You reply that "to argue that Wwe must," etc., and continue with eight lines of that which "Audio" did not argue or suggest; which I think is unbecoming. I agree with "Audio" and I think that it is to its disadvantage that our paper is
thus straying from the established practice of other such productions.
G.H.

[Would our correspondent supply the name of "another such production" whose ‘‘established practice" differs from our own?-Ed.]
