GETTING TOGETHER.

"And what part will the news
papers play in the upbuilding of Pa
ducah? We have heard from every
other department of endeavor to
night" whispered a seat mate at the
Get Together banquet at the
Palmer House.
Neither did anyone address the as
sembly on the part the law of gravi-
tation plays in the upbuilding Of Pa
ducah. yet every conscious and un-
conscious, voluntary and involuntary
act is committed with reference TO
that force. which holds planets to-
gether and enables US TO maintain
our footing on this revolving globe.
That worlds without such a force
would exist is beyond question, be-
cause the constituent elements are
there: but not such a world as this.
And society would exist without
newspapers. because the elements of
society are here; but not such a
society as this. II would be absurd
to declare that the newspaper is the
foundation Of social order, just as II
would be absurd to say that gravity
is the foundation of the worlds; but
every social and political institution
in existence today is erected with ref
erence to the part the daily news
paper plays in the scheme of things,
just as worlds revolve with reference
to molecular attraction; and should
the newspaper be suddenly abolished,
the social structure would necessarily
change to conform to new conditions.
SO the newspaper. like the law of
gravitation, is taken for granted. No
one understands its exact relations to
q community, but all classes and all
interests know It is there, performing
its function faithful, always to be
counted on to bring them right side
up and hold them to the safe and
cure ground.
We would that we could invite the
larger gathering. which we are adj
dressing today, to a "Get-Together''
banquet with features OF our own
proposing, where each guest might
bring his civic sins and lay them IN
a heap and be absolved.

w. C. Belman, the Hammond repre-

of the Y. NJ. c. A.. stated today that
nothing is being done to secure Y M.

This matter has been thoroughly
thrashed out by the business men of
Hammond on several occasions and
they came to the conclusion that the
movement would not get the support
1t should have at this time.
The situation has not changed, and
1t is not likely that Hammond will be
in the midst of a campaign to raise z.
NJ c. A. funds for some time.
