Newspaper Writing.

The Monessen (Pa.) News says:
"There is a general complaint among
older heads in the work that present
newspaper writing lacks style. and
this, in fact, cannot be denied. But
what Is the cause? Simply that our
colleges. universities and high schools
are turning out thousands of grad
yates who are crammed with knowl-
edge without being able to express 1t
worthily."
The News might have added there
are thousands who will never be able
TO write we'll and some of them break
into journalism. Gift OF expression
and practice are necessary to good
writing. Having the first, the news
paper Office, as the News implies in
its editorial, is the best training
school. No young man who follows
the blue pencil from day to day as his
stun is corrected or cut down TO meet
the requirements OF space can fail
TO improve his style. But first and
most important is the gift OF express
sion. Without this a young man
should not enter Journalism with the
expectation OF achieving distinction.
College training cannot impart the
gift.
