The Queer Story of Brownlow's Newspaper
"The Queer Story of Brownlow's Newspaper" is a short story by H. G. Wells which was first published in the February 1932 issue of the ''Ladies' Home Journal''.
==Plot summary==
The story takes place on 10 November 2001 and opens with the protagonist, Brownlow, accidentally being delivered a newspaper dated 10 November 2051. The story is mainly a description of the contents of the newspaper, which features color photography throughout, with Wells taking the opportunity to issue some prophecies of what he felt 1971 might hold. Successful prophecies include lower birth rates, an emphasis on psychological motivation in fiction, mentions of geothermal energy, and wider coverage of scientific news, while the unsuccessful ones include simplified spelling of English, a 13-month reformed calendar, the extinction of gorillas, and hints at some form of world government.
