1t is a notable fact that many
good items are lost to a newspaper
by the modesty of people who hesi-
tate to tell matters concerning
themselves. The right thing to do
is to stop the newspaper man on the
street or any other place you may
see him, and tell him that you have
been on a visit, have friends visit
ing you, that you and your wife
have a new baby at home, or that
your wife entertained friends, or
anything that is in any way mat
ter of news. If you have done any
thing mean keep that to yourself,
for the reporter already knows it;
