When the diagram is filled in it will spell out a quotation from some published work (reading normally from left to right, black boxes indicating the ends of words); also, when the words have all been filled in above, their initial letters will spell out the author and title of the quoted work. The acrostic feature, and the relative word-lengths in the diagram, will assist in the solution. Spelling and definitions on the authority of Webster's New International Dictionary, Second Edition. Solution to Last Issue's Trans-O-Gram. MICHAEL MEDVED -- The Left Coast: ''Our fellow citizens cherish the institution of marriage and consider religion an important priority in life, but the entertainment industry promotes every form of sexual adventurism and regularly ridicules religious believers as crooks or crazies.''
