So, the new "Rap Lin Rie KOS" will be going out in January. It is 32 pages, counting the cover. First issue has a picture of Dutton on it. The first picture I have ever seen of him. It was first printed in 1916-1919. There will be articles on Dutton, obviously, & on his International Symbolic Language, the precursor to Speedwords; lessons in RLR, editorials, translations into RLR of old but valuable IAL books, ads, articles on health, success, finances, history, science, religion, etc. all, or mostly in RLR. Plus, some current world news events. Some jokes, poems, and a whole lot more is planned. Obviously, not all of the above will be in one issue, but will be covered over the months and years. To begin, the magazine will be out quarterly, and maybe bi-monthly if it grows to the point the effort to do so is not overwhelming. Size of the magazine is about the size of a pocketbook, about 41/2 by 5 inches. After looking at the dummy copy I can't wait to get it done and on its way. First issue may become a collector's item, who knows. Tentative first run is for 1,000 copies. Al l sue, & stu mote, Bob
