breaking business last year, that

When the Editor Makes an Error
He Hears About it.

In recent address President Til
ton, of the Southwestern Iowa Edi-
torlal ass rotation, said:
"The two essentials to success in
newspaper work are for one toknow
everything he says, but not to say
everything he knows. II the pen is
mightier than the sword,
knowledge is mightier than the pen,
and it needs to be handled more
carefully than either.
There is no other calling or pro-
fession in which one needs to be so
cautious about knowing what he
tells and about telling what he
knows. The preacher can claim that
his hearers ear was dull, the lawyer
can blame the jury and the court
can demand rehearing, the doctor
can say it was heart failure and
have his mistake soon buried and
the grass growing over it, the
teacher can erase the chalk marks
from the board, but when
the newspaper man makes
mistake in answering the
question, What shall / say?"
his bridges are burned behind him
and his papers are not, for the
printed leaves, with their proof in
black and white, have been scattered
hither and you are in the hands of
foes as well as friends.
The bookkeeper can correct his
footing, and possibly not even his
employer may be the wiser; the
merchant may make good the flaw
found In the dress pattern, and only
the one customer may ever share
the knowledge with him; the me
chanic, when he blunders. may saw
another board or put putty in the
crack, but when an error creeps in
TO the paper every reader within a
Sabbath days journey of the Office
hastcns to call the editor S attention
to 1t.
