HOW AND WHAT TO WRITE.

The West Virginia News has ISSUED
folder entitled How and What tC
Write for a Newspaper which con
tains practical suggestions for report
ing neighborhood news. To The Eagles
esteemed correspondents the follow
ing extracts are presented:
The aim and purpose: Get all the
news that's fit to print and interest as
many as possible, not one or two.
First of all, a newspaper is design
ed to give the news of the neighbor-
hood. county. state and nation, and
no effort should be made to make it
the purveyor of mere gossip or the in
strument of personal revenge. In dis
seminating the news it must be reli-
able and impartial to the utmost de
gree. Once in a great while some one
who has a grudge against neighbor
writes a letter in which a sly thrust
is made at the person he or she
doesn't like. Sometimes it Is clever.
ly disguised and the editors are I'M
able to detect it. This should never
be done, and it is earnestly hoped
that no correspondent or occasional
contributor will so abuse our trust.
Personal feeling should never dictate
in giving news. Never overlook the
comings and goings of neighbors
whom you may not like, Give all the
news of all the people, whether you
like them or not
Avoid as much as possible chron
telling the calls made by one neighbor
upon another who live on adjoining
farms. There is little news value in
such items.

THE GREAT LIVE STOCK PARADE.

No single event of the Kentucky
State Fair, Sept. 1917. will attract
more attention than the great live

made up of first-prize winners in the
various classes during the week of the
fair. The judging is then over and

Rev. Malcolm James McIeod,a Pres
byterian clergyman edited one issue
OF the Pasadena Star. He entered
the editorial office with the young
vigor of an undaunted conviction that
nothing in the nature of the news
paper business presented an obstacle
to a man of intelligent theories even
though the details of execution were
unnokwn to him.
Mr.. Mcleod did his days work and
the profession observing the fruit of
the labor of the amateur can say that
he did it well, but here is the express
sion OF his revised convictions:
My time is now almost up as
pen this last line; my hand is
almost paralyzed; my brain is be-
fuddled and / am free to confess
that am right glad to vacate the
holy spot. Such rush and riot and
disarray. Such a tumble and
potpourri. 1t strikes me as the
daily effort to bring order out of
chaos,and do it lightningly quick.
/ am reminded of the memorable
words: The earth was without
form and void, and darkness was
upon the face of the deep. And
the spirit moved upon the face of
the waters" Never shall | criti-
else newspaper men more sahll
pray for them. They will have
my hearts forbearance hence
forth and forever, the hardest
worked, shortest lived, poorest
paid brain workers on this weary
old world of ours.
Such is the opinion of one man who
tried the work and found that it was
something more than idle play and
listless effort.-Evening North Dakota

Some curious specimens of folklore

WIND AND NERVES.
Effects of Breezes From the East,
West and Northwest.

Effects of Breezes From the East,
West and Northwest.
The east winds hug the earth close
ly and gather moisture, dust and bac-
terra. They are cold and humid, al
together forming an enervating infiu-
ence on human and animal life and
rendering it susceptible to the disease
germs which the winds carry and dis
seminate. q
The cool. pure northwest winds
come from a region of dry. highly
electrified air where ozone exists in
comparatively large quantities. They
are invigorating. The framework Of
nerves in the human being is like
delicate electrical apparatus. the
nerves being the wires and the brain
and ganglia receiving and distributing
centers.
Every one knows that telephone
works better on a clear, dry day than
on a wet. muggy one. The moist at
mosphere lessons vitality. The nerve
wires grow flaccid and heavy. The
messages become confused. Hence
low spirits. melancholia. distorted
mental outlook. faulty assimilation,
and disease.
The opposite effects flow from the
northwest winds. The west and
northwest winds keep the mucous
membranes of the body in good work
ing order. The coating Of moisture
which Is ALWAYS present with the east
wind disappears. Absence Of any
wind II long continued has a bad eff
feet on the human body and mind.
A prolonged calm means lack Of ven
tilation on a great scale. The winds
serve TO mix in normal proportions
the gases which compose the atmo-
sphere. and in this way they are con-
ducive to health up to a certain point

Dropped In on the Bears.

The removing of the polar bears at
the ZOO recalls that some years back
a visitor dropped in on these bears.
A hat fell into the pit. and its owner
at once jumped in after it. He alight-
ed on bear who was enjoying a doze
in the sun. The bear made him well
come. 1t seized him by the shoulder
and waltzed him round and round
Luckily the visitor kept his feet until
keeper opened a side door and pulled
him into safety. But the hat was left
behind. On the following day the man
sent to the society letter in which he
claimed the cost of a new hat.-Lon-
