STIMULUS or WRITING NEWS
The Newspaper Has Injured Letter

The Newspaper Has Injured Letter
 Writing as an Art.
 The wonderful development of the newspaper may also be looked upon as a very potent fa,ctor in the decline of letter-writing as an art. The letter no longer can be regarded as primarily the carrier of news. The expression of one's opinion about great contenp- orary events is, indeed, still left to the letter, but how much of an incentive to friendly correspondence ds lost by the fact that every part of the world knows of imporbant happenings almost simultaneously is not to be nightly es- timated.
 The stimulus ito writing that comes from having news to imparTt is done away with, and it is not always that even the gifted letter-writer cam afford to lose that dncitant. It is only the correspondent par excellence who knows how to attain the perfection of his art by writing delightfully."- of nothing, if, indeed, that may be called nothing which affords him a means for the employment of his delicate percep- tions. For the saving quality of the genuine letter is in the ability of its author to put himself into 1t. If he writes about trivial things he does it with a grace of interest that disguises the trdyiality. He must not make his little fishes talk like whales, but he should, as Goldsmith himself knew how to do, make his letters of perpet- ual interest because of the aptness of their style to the simplicity of the thought.

SATURDAY, OCTOBER 1T, 1908.

Down Bridgeport way one or two of the newspapers have just discovered that the Park city is bad, bad place. The editors of these papers are calling the attention of the country to their wicked, wide-open city. If these same editors had only discovered this state of affairs some time when there was no political campaign in the works, people might take more stock in their statements.
