Groceries, to be choice must be
fresh. In order to sell fresh gro
ceries we must keep them contin-

That's just what we are doing.
Therefore our groceries are fresh
and choice in the true sense of the
word. If you are not getting the
best in the grocery line tell us and
we will tell you the reason and how
to overcome it.

The war against consumption

The war against consumption
should have the sympathetic CO.
operation of everyone. That CO.
operation may be effectively give by
close attention to sanitation. Foul
air is one of the most prolific causes
of the disease, yet how many people
there are who seem to dread pure
air. They sleep with the windows
and doors of their. rooms hermet-
ically closed. Then, too, ianitors,
for some reason we have never
fathomed, seem to have a chronic
objection to ventilation and so
audiences have to breathe the
bottled up dead air of a week. A
greater exercise of common sense
would decrease tuberculosis to a
most gratifying extent.

Los Angeles herald., 1910-12-04

Probably not one reader in a hundred
has paused to take notice that a news
paper article is written on a plan Just
the reverse of that of a sermon or ora
| tion. Comparatively few ministers
have analysed the subject sufficiently
| to notice this fact and their ignorance
of IL will often account for the reluC-
tance of newspapers to accept matter
contributed by them. 1t is worth the
while of every man and woman to
know the general plan on which news
paper articles are written, for almost
everybody desires at times to announce
something through the press. The
mere knowledge of the theory will not
make a successful writer in this or any
other department, but it is the first
step.
The skillful preacher or orator usual
ly reserves his most important points
until toward the end of his discourse,
closing with the climax. The skillful
newspaper reporter puts his climax
into his first sentence and ends with
the most nonessential detail, While the
novelist secures his dramatic effect by
keeping the secret of his story hidden
as long as possible, the reporter attains
success by revealing the secret as
quickly as words will let him. Both are
working on principles as clearly de-
fined as that on which q sonnet is con-
struCted, but the modern newspaper
writer works daily upon the foregoing
principle without knowing it. No man
can work many days under metro
politan city editor without learning 1t.
If he does not pick up the knack
promptly he is given a chance to learn
some other business.
Tho reasons for this method OF con
struction are plain. The object Of
newspaper STORY" is to tell the news
for it's own sake. The majority of read
crs do not have time to read the whole
