Newspaper Policy

The publisher OF The Record has
found out many things from real ex-
perience Among those things are
these:
That it always pays pretty well to
attend to ones own business and not
worry much about ones competitor.
That 1t pays to be absolutely fair
to all interests especially to ones
competitors.
That absolute honesty is always
the pest policy.
That the people who pay for a
Newspaper do so to get the news and
not 10 read what the publisher may

That as a matter Of fact a newspa-
per that is always boosting-trying to
build up the community and the peo-
pie Of the community has vastly more
Influence than the paper that is al
ways inclined to tear down some
body or some thing
That advertising always pays and
space in The Record is too valuable
to give away frequent mentions, un-
complimentary or otherwise TO those
conducting similar businesses to ours.

Ever notice how nearly every new
man who takes hold OF a newspaper
in Canon City begins by directing
abuse and little spiteful filings at the
publisher of The Record? There
have been several notable examples.
Just why this Is we have never known.
unless it is that these people have
come from communities where it Is
still consIreder necessary for COM
petitors in business to be personal
enemies. And then perhaps the spirit
of envy or jealousy may enter into
II some where.
But you must also have noticed
that no man or woman who ever
long conducted a paper here re-
mained unfriendly with the
Record. Some of the best friends the
publisher of The Record has are
among his former competitors who
have quit the business or have gone
away from Canon City.
This is easy to explain II is be-
cause the publisher of The Record
treats his competitors with courtesy
and absolute fairness
II is the easiest thing in the world
to be unfair, and It shows no mark
OF ability to say mean things about
other people-that is the next easiest
thing.

One of them couldn't come at the

into the state he had to mark in large
letters on the outside "One of. Scotch
whisky, 2 OTIS. gin, 2 qts. cocktails

worker this is a hard matter. A tile
made in the octagon design has a flaf
surface, and thus all you have tc
60 is to make the bottom of the
trench smooth and insure the tile re
naming in line.
The cost of this design over q
round tile is but very little, and as IL
has many advantages, it should ap
peal to the inexperienced worker as
he cannot help but secure correct and
satisfactory results
While the tile may be made In
shorter lengths. it is merely a waste
of labor as the 1S-inch lengths are
much quicker laid. and the tile are
porous SO the joints need not be as
close as with vitrified clay.
Another great advantage of con
crete tile is that each tile is perfect
while clay tile are very apt to draw
out of shape in burning. and thus
make trouble when laying them.
