The New York Herald oil last Sunday
wasa "tepluple sheet"-tweuty.eiGht pages
otsix columns each. Thepaper contained
l,55i,OJO ems, agate measurement, requir.
ing the seperate handling Of 4,6i2,C0O
pieces Of type, weighing 2,0lG pounds.
Ten tons OF metal were required for the
stereotyping. The paper WAS printed On
seven double per!ecting presses, using
over twenty Ions Of white paper which,
says the Iieraiqd, "ii extended from the
door OF the Herald building, would have
reached beyond Washington and nearly to
Richmond"
OF the lGS columns 1914 were devoted to
advertisements, leaving for reading matter
little over fourth Of the whole, or some
thing more than tho entire Herald
proper, which is paper Of eight pages six
columns to the page. So that the Herald
rea lers had their paper filed with reading
matter, and six other IierGids filled with
advertising. And the advertising columns
OF such newspaper are not its least in
tsreSting features. They present u picture
OF life in the greatest American city such
q, the combined sIatIs Of the press OF New
York would not be equal 10. 1t is the
mirror OF u grta. social organism, reflect.
ing its countless exchanges Of values, its
hopes, It's ambition, its desires, It's needs,
It's gayety and SORROW, its lollies and lis
crimee.
For the multiplied pages OF the Herald
arc not forced. There is no solicitation.
There arc comparatively few large adyer-
tisements. There are whole pages on which
the advertisements run from two to ten,
with perhaps an average Of four, lines. 1t
is all natural expression, seeking the me.
dunn that will give it the widest publicity.
One who had never heard Of New York,
had seen NO statistics concerning 1t, would
know ut once from these tWenty'eght pages
OF the Herald that II has its home in Il
populous, pushing, struggling, driving,
neyer.resling city Of vast business.
Mere bigness for boast is not merit in
any newspaper, and twenty.eight page
journal ut its best can not be called a
to nj ting morGel; to be a. all tolerable it
IN lst vindica!e its reason Of being, and this
the Herald does. Most OF the newspapers
which boast OF their avoirdupois don't, and
this is why the compact newspaper OF few
pages commends itself most to public
favor. The Eeptuple newspaper will not
spread like wild ire; it is out OF size for
newspaper aud out OF shape for a maya
vine
