From the text: "'Men are never so likely to settle a question rightly as when th [sic] they discuss it freely.' - Lord Macaulay in Southey's Colloquies

Logos is a journal of thoughtful opinion published by the Logos Editorial B [sic] Board and sponsored by Scibblers and Scrawlers, a creative writing organization at Central College, Fayette, Mo. Proce [sic] per issue: 25. The positions presented in signed articles are those of the individual authors, and not necessarily those of the editors, of Scribblers and Scrawlers, or of Central College. -- the editors. ...

LOGOS, a prose magazine, was established last year with the explicit purpose of stimulating 'intellectual growth.' Two issues were published last year in this purpose.

As could well be the case with any magazine operating purposely with no deadline, months passed before the first issue of volume 2 could be produced. Whatever the cause, it was some time before sufficient material of the quality demanded was accumulated.

The editors make no rash claims as to the material presented, though we certainly feel that our purpose is upheld. And such a magazine is perhaps unique on the small college campus.

A second issue before the end of this year is likely sufficient productive interest os developed by this one. Prose articles should provide the bulk of the material but letters, fiction, and poetry are certainly welcome."
