First joy of Authorship
lAuanla Constitution.l

Dickens has interpreted for all Of US
the feelings of the young writer when
he forwards his first contribution to
the editor. The following little story
of experience in that line is told by a
Georgia writer:
My FIRST sketch and poem I dropped
in a little box, then hung around the
box for two hours, until the pOstman
came and gathered its contents
The articles were sent to a daily
paper in nay native town, and for
whole week the Office where that paper
was printed was the supreme object Of
interest to me.
4 was uD and dressed long before
daylight every morning, watching for
the carrier. Then, when he made ais
! appearance I met him at the door and
received the paper, which I almost
feared to open lest the absence Of my
| work should bring another flashing
! pang of bitter disappointment.
At last my sketch-my poem-ap-
! peared with Written Specially for the
| 7 mes over both of them!
The boy had reached the gate, but I
/ called him back and gave him a dollar
/ Then / locked myself in my room and
/ sat down and felt good, and looked out
upon the world and saw that it was
/ beautiful, and wondered when the
/ messenger would call around with the
| laurel and just how it would look on
my head"

The newspaper man at the front

during the war OF secession dealt with
that newspaper man who after a great
and decisive battle, reaching the wire
before any Of his competitors, sent of
his story and then, in order to hold the
wire until such time as it would be
useless TO his rivals, cOOily dictated to
the operator the first chapter CT Gene
