Between
Ourselves

Yellow journalism as applied
to advertising.
This is a subject we have had
in mind for some time, but some
how or other we haven't got
around to it.
Everyone knows what yellow
journalism is and everyone
knows of the WAYS OF THE
YELLOW JOURNALIST.
The yellow ADVERTISER is of
the same breed as the yellow
JOURNALIST. He follows the
same tactics, in fact he works
hand -in-hand with his BROTHER
EXAGGERATOR. His pen over
flows with bombast and his
claims are only limited by his
limited vocabulary.
The yellow advertiser is not
merely PEST-he is a MENACE.
He UNDOES what honest ad-
vertisers spend millions TO DO.
He hurts himself and he hurts
others. He is an ABOMlNATlON.
We don't believe the yellow
journalist flourishes to the ex-
tent he used to, and we KNOW
the saffron ADVERTISER is not
as strong as of yore. People are
too wise and too DISCRIMINATE
ING nowadays to be taken in
by either and the time is not far
distant when yellow publicity
will be a thing of the past.
There aren't as many yellow
advertisers in Newark, In
proportion, as there are in
New York because it has
an changing population
that DOES NOT KNOW or
does NOT CARE whether 1t
reads the TRUTH or whether
it reads DRIVEL.
We don't believe in yellow
journalism or yellow journal
publicity methods. What you
read in our advertisements
you may depend upon, FOR
IT is THE TRUTH.

loss of more than one weeks time In
sixty-fve cases bodily members were
lost and in twenty-one cases injured
workmen died.
1t was denied by clergymen that pay
envelopes had been opened and money
taken out for church expenses. The
committee censures the clergy for pub
fishing pamphlets condemning the men
Tor striking and for failing to censure
the company for enforcing the twelve
hour day. The committee recommends
laws requiring three shifts in all plants
running twen.y-four hours a day, and
a law requiring at least one full days
rest week. 1t also suggests that In
all government contracts there should
be a provision for three shifts of eight
hours.

A HUNT AND A A
An Irishman's Definition of One Good
Turn Deserves Another"

Rev. B. NJ. Charlton. pastor of the
NJ. E. Church of Ely, had an unusual
experience on Saturday night. that
is unusual for a preacher, for be spent
the night hunting, not for deer or
bear, but for a broncho. The horse
was not his. The minister and his
friend, Ed. Morrison. together with
Fred Bragg and Charles Bower went
riding in a four-seated rig. and the
broncho was hitched on behind. The
lightning and thunder had a bad eff
feet on the half wild broncho and
when the men went to unhitch the
animal they found that he had taken
French leave. Then they returned to
town and arranged to hunt for the
absentee. Then 1t was that the min
lister and his friends went out on the
night hunt for the horse, which they
found in the day time, quietly resting
at Campbells ranch.
To pay the kindly preacher for his
great help in catching the broncho,
the Epworth League of the NJ. f.
church, after a business meeting on
Monday night, permitted their friend
ly pastor to treat to an oyster supper
at the Vienna cafe. Those present on
the joyous occasion were: Miss Sophie
Goodman. Arilla Hill, Myrtle Decker,
and Messrs. j. w. Meyers. Charles
Bowers. and w. S. Bailey. Oysters be-
ing in season and having been served
in the ways suited to the various
tastes of the gourmands. the young
people reported having had a glad
some time and they promise to amply
repay their beloved pastor at some
time in the near future.
