The man who edits the average
country newspaper cannot well avoid
treading on somebody's toes continu-
ally; must expect to be censured often
for unlntentional failures; must expect
hard work and little thanks; must ex-
pect to be called a coward because he
does not "pitch into" everything some
body thinks is wrong, and fool if he
speaks out too plainly on public evils;
he must expect to grind other peoples
axes-and turn the grindstone himself.

to pay $I4 week for the support of
his father. The Judge was of the opin-
ion that son whose father spent thous-
ands of dollars to educate him should
support the father when the latter was
unable to care for himself II was a
just decision and any son who would
refuse to care for his parents without
compulsion has something wrong with
