Instructions for Authors

In non-fiction articles, the responsibility for the accuracy of the statements rests primarily with the author. The general scope of any inve stigation should be defined: for example, a statement that words have been taken from Webster I s Collegiate Dictionary or Webster IS Unabridged Dictionary, or place names taken from the Rand McNally Commercial Atlas or the Times Index-Gazetteer of the World. If a word or a name comes from an unusual source, this should be identi­ fied. Footnotes 'in general should be avoided; references can be given either in the text or at the end of the article.
