but not often. for lie can take things
back in the next issue, which he gen
orally does. While other folks have
to 90 to bed early, the editor sits uE
! late every night and sees all that is
going on. When am man L mean
to be an editor, so that | may stay
out late at night. That will be
jolly"
| When the daily toll is over and the
sun is going down, you are ready then
to read the news that is going on IN
town. If you miss this family journ'
