all the world when the outflow of such through
the regular channels has stopped But the of this
gathering and the labor connected with of lit
tie consequence little consideration as compared with the
working out of a sound idea.
And Sunday afternoon issue instead of a morning
issue of afternoon paper is both sound and logical
The expense of this special news gathering service
and Geographic service however will be shared by our
other two evening papers if the Sunday evening of
The Washington Times proves to be the success that
pretty careful analysis of the problem suggests should
be- And success of this kind cannot remain bottled up
Cannot remain alone with my newspapers. 1t will
be caught up all by other evening papers which,
in the very of the case will seek our special news
service The cost therefore, the initial stages of this
enterprise is thing deter from putting in force
an idea that looks good to
The local news will be handled with the same yigor
and the thoroughness that have made The Washing
ton Times the most alert newspaper in the field
small village needs no newspaper to spread the
local news big city must have one There is other
way to ouch elbows with your feLow-townsmen The
daily newspaper is the medium through which the three
hundred thousand human entities of Washington become
neghbors 1t brings before each the thoughts and
and achievements of the Others 1t eliminates the vast
ness of the CITY, and makes neighborhood where hui
man interest in one another makes life worth while.
The Washington Times is the ralying-pont for
news-the news center With its staff of reporters
eng every inch of the ground and every phase of public
and popular interest and with thousand telephones
convergng in The Times Office over which all news is
flashed while it yet news, it mirrors to you all that is
worth while in the town Without some such service you
can know nothing Of what is happening at your very
doors.
In the Sunday issue of The Times you will get this
service, will keep in touch with what taking place
Sunday other days of the week
am dwelling on this matter of news service for the
special purpose of emphasizing the fact that this Sunday
afternoon paper will have news service, and will be
NEWSPAPER brsting wde-awake newspaper in
every sense of the word 1t will be rehash of the
morning issues and will devote no more space to topics
upon which they have already touched than any weekday
afternoon paper devOes subjects treated in the
irg papers.
AS a matter of fact the morning newspaper dove
tails into the evening paper of the night BEFORE and the
afternoon paper likewise dovetas into the morning paper
is impossible to draw line midway between the morn
ing and the after newspaper and keep each paper
to its own field Each covers to some extent the field of
the other but brings stories and happenings of the earlier
issue up to date printing the additional happenings that
occur within the strict period of the later issue, the period
after the other paper be morning evening has gone
TO press.
And to this extent only will the Sunday afternoon
issue of The Washington Times carry the news of the
morning papers, The line of differentiation will be as
sharply drawn is the with the weekday issues
On weekdays the stock exchange and the markets
and the courts furnish considerable percentage of news
They are active features which lend themselves with I'M

On Sunday shall get no news of this kind but another
kind of activity may well take its place. the activity of the
religious workers. the religious teachers. Church news
and church happenings from the pulpit and the
Tel 9Ci
ways should in the nature of the case furnish to Sum
