Editing With the Scissors.
Philadelphia Call.

II
| The above remark is frequently
made in connection with newspapers
and is too frequently meant as a slur
On the contrary, under proper circum
stances, it should be regarded as q
compliment OF a high character. The
same paper may be ably edited with
the pen and miserably edited with the
scissors. A mistaken idea prevails
that the work of the latter is mere
child's play, a sort of hit or miss VEN
ture, requiring hardly any brains and
still less judgment; that the pro-
miscuous and voluminous clippings
are sent in batch to the foreman,
and with that the editors duty ends
and that of the foreman begins.
Instead of this, the work requires
much care and attention, with a keen
comprehension OF the fact that each
days paper has its own needs. The
exchange editor is painstaking con-
scientious, methodical man, always
on the alert, quick in appreciation, re-
tentlve in memory, shrewd in discern
ment. He reads closely, culls care
fully, omits and amends, discards and
digests, never ignoring the fact that
variety is great essential. There
are sentences to recast, words to
soften, redundancies to prune, errors
to correct, headings to be made, credits
to be given, seasons to be considered
atlinites to be preserved, consistencies
to be respected. He knows whether
the matter is fresh or stale, whether it
is appropriate, and whether he has
used it before; he remembers that he
is catering for many tastes; he makes
raids in every direction; he lays the
whole newspaper field under con-
tribution; he persistently "boils
down." which with him, is not a pro-
cess of rewriting, but happy faculty
of expunging, without destroying
sense or continuity.
His genius is exhibited in the de-
partments, the items of which are
similar and cohesive, in the sugges-
tive heads and sub-heads, in the
sparkle that is visible, in the sense of
qualification which the reader derives.
No paper can be exclusively original
it would die of pcnderosity. Life is
too short, and hence an embargo must
be laid upon the genius of its rivals.
A bright clipped article is infinitely
better than stupid contributed
article. The most successful paper is
the paper that is intelligently and
consistently edited in all its depart
ments, whether by pen or scissors.

worm. A physician advises the thorough
cooking of eggs before they are eaten, and
thinks they should always be carefully
