Editor Bicycling World: While it can be of but small consequenceto any one, whether I regard with favor or otherwise, any particularkind of machine, please let me assure London I have not experienced a change of heart in the least as to the merit of thetype of machine, to which I am indebted for my happiest cycling ex-periences. The sociable is still, in my opinion, the preferable ma-chine when one has a lady for a companion, and I have faith thateventually it will again be popular, though perhaps in a perfe6tedform, much as the old velocipede is reproduced in the safety bicycleof to-day. If London W. cares to know my present views on theSociable v. Tandem question he can find them set forth in the JackEasy letters in your last volume, much as though I had writtenthem myself. But it is vain to stem the tide of fashion, and in the Vidloria Iam only seeking to encourage a worthy new one. Not for ladies,though. Faithfully yours
