HEARD ABOUT TOWN

It's queer business, this print
ing a newspaper. And it's about the
toughest proposition a fellow ever
tackled to get out paper that
doesn't cause anybody to kick.
There's the man or the society wo-
man who like to See their names in
the paper, but if the editor fails to
be wise" to the fact that they've
been out of town or have been CIV
ing a red, white and blue tea or
something or other of that sort, then
there's blood on the moon right
away. Why, bless your dear heart,
an editor doesn't know everything
and cannot be expected to unless the
public helps him. Then there are
some people so modest and retiring
they make a fuss if their names ap-
pear in print. They bristle up and
call the editor names that wouldn't
look well in print. Isn't it funny?
But let me tell you right here the
easiest way to get next" to the
average man or woman is to put
his or her name in the paper in a
nice, pleasant way. They like to see
it.

Then there's the individual who's
always complaining because there
isn't anything in the paper" There's
one male citizen right here in Sauk
Centre who has been raising loud
howl recently because The Herald
isn't any good, and telling around
town that he could get out a better
paper any day. But bless your soul,
this same apology for genius homo
hasn't taken The Herald since last
fall when it was with the utmost
difficulty that he could be persuaded
to dig up some three dollars in ar
rearages on subscription. This so
exhausted him that he stopped his
paper" in a huff and hasn't taken
it since Query: how does he know
there's nothing in it?''

Then there's another individual here
who doesn't like the editor because
the latter failed to record certain
matter not long since. Said matter,
if published, would not have helped
the individual in question in the
least, neither in his business nor in
politics. But he failed to see it that
way and since then he has endeavor-
ed to repay the editors endeavor to
save him some unpleasantness, by
knocking on the quiet and having
few of his immediate intimates do
the same. Funny, isn't it. how some
folks are so dense they cannot apprec-
late favor? But then you'll find
that kind of people in this sinful
world. In fact, "the woods are full
OF 'em" in some places; or as the
late lamented Josh Billings was wont
to remark: There's about as much
nature in some folks as there is in
anybody else.

few facts that group themselves about
three things: The broad and wise pol
icy of the local Chinese government

tween the Chinese city and the foreign
settlements and the strategic position
occupied by the Y. NJ. c. A.
To say that China is awakening or

ened is a platitude. IL is self evident

Just as we judge the possibilities and
the quality of a mans mind by his

China not only is capable of doing,

accomplishing and have accomplished.

very soon. for | believe Mr.. Robert

when he SAYS that the conviction that
China must have progress and the

proven in their work in Tientsin that
they can apprehend the seriousness of

by the government, some by private
individuals The board of education
Is under fearful pressure; a great cam
paign of education must be carried
through all over China within ten
years if the nation is to be saved. As
a result, teachers must be trained in
a hurry. Instead of turning out sec
ond grade teachers with superficial
training. the following method is
adopted TO get results quick" A
normal school. for example, for women

tory system. the entire expenses of

ment and ten dollars a month is paid
to each student besides her expenses.

that the Y. VI. c. A. is a power for edu-
