You must show the world that even _Cosy Moments_ cannot keep a good man down." He resumed his seat. "How do you mean?" said Billy Windsor. Psmith turned to Mike. "Comrade Jackson, if you were editing this paper, is there a single feature you would willingly retain?" "I don't think there is," said Mike. "It's all pretty bad rot." |
