The great development of newspaper
advertising has not been due to the eff
forts of of publishers, but to the COM
petition in businesss. AS the cities
have grown the business houses have
multiplied, and the most enterprising
merchants have enlarged their share
of trade by calling the peoples atten-
ticn to their wares. This has forced all
merchants who want more than a
neighborhood business to advertise.
Now the people have the habit of look
ing to the newspapers for shopping in
formation, and the establishment which
is not advertising is out of the race

The vertical style of penmanship,
from which so much was expected in
the way of greater ease in writing and
greater legibility in reading, is not hav-
ing all its own way. In Connecticut one
of the county Boards of Education has
been making extended investigation as
to its merits. These inquiries were par
ticularly directed to those who largely
employed clerical labor, and the results
have been so greatly in favor of the old
slanting principle that a recommends
tion has been made that the vertical be
abolished and the former method be
substituted in the schools under their
control.
