Markets for Postcard, Greeting Card and Calendar Verses and Mottoes The general requirements of these publishers in the way of sentiments for postcards, greeting cards and calendars are so nearly the same that descriptive mention is not ncessary. "Sentiments," writes W. Dayton Wegefarth, editor of the International Art Publishing Company, "either poetical or prose, must be short; they must express fine, big, friendly thoughts-never mushy ones; they must be of simple meter, so that the lilt may be readily sensed; they must sing-this, above all else, is important; fill them with music instead of with frothy sentiment, for the ear loves melody and melody is very often longer-lived than sentiment that lacks the ring of sincerity." Jingles, whether humorous or otherwise, are not in demand, nor are slangy epigrams. AMERICAN ART WORKS, Coshocton, O. Uses no outside contributions. THOMAS J.
