SELECTIONS FOR A NEWSPAPER.
Most people think the selection of mat.
ter for newspaper the easier part of the
business. How great an error! Ii is by NIL
means the most difficult To look over and
over hundreds Of exchange papers every
week, from which to select enough for one.
when the question is not what shall, bu;
what shall not be selected, is no easy task
If every person who reads paper could
have edited it we should hear less com
plant. Not unfrcquently is it the case that
an editor looks all over his exchange papers
for something interesting, and can find alb
solutely nothing. Every paper is drer than
contribution box, and yet something must
be had !; his paper must come out with some
thing in it, and he does the best he cam
To an editor who has the least care about
what he selects, the writing he has to do is
the easiest part Of the work. Every suhscri-
Der thinks the paper printed for his own
benefit; and if there is nothing in it that
suits him 1t must DO stopped it is good for
nothing. just as many subscribers as an
editor may have, sc many lasts has he to
consult One wants something sound
One likes anecdotes, fun and frolic: and the
next door neighbor wonders that a man Of
good sense will put such stuff in paper. -
Something spicy comes out and the editor
is black guard. Next comes something
argu,nentative, and the editor is dull fool
And so between them all you see the poor
fellow gets roughly handled They never
think that what does not please them, may
please the next man but they insist, if the
paper does not please them it is good for
nothing - Washington Globe.
