Says the Calhoun Advance:
Most anybody can edit news
paper and make it interesting for
awhile. Some people can keep up
interest for a month or two with
born pencil shower and hard work
ell to grind out an interesting batch
OF local and editorial items week
after week for a term of years.
There is no profession that is more
exhausting or less remunerative for
the work than the editorial or jour
nal, site profession, but how few be-
lieve this This is no joke. Run
ming modern newspaper is no
easy task There was n time when a
man failed at everything else he
became an editor. Running a
newspaper in those days was a
SihSh. iheTS was no system
about the office. The paper was
published on Wednesdays and for
the next two or three days the en-
tire office force, from the devil"
down to the editor, took a holiday.
But these days it is a continuous
grind. The moment the last paper
of the weeks edition comes from
the press work begins on the next
weeks edition, and so on through
out the entire year. If something
doesn't happen the editor must
make 1t happen. The readers must
have something new and interest
ing every week. 1t is easy enough
to feed copy to the linotype when
events come in rapid succession, but
every newspaper man experiences
those days, and weeks when there
Is dearth of dews, and that is
when the real task comes. The
methodical housekeeper who super
vises the making of beds every
morning and the preparation of
three good meals a day, week in
and week out, month after month
and year after year, knows how to
sympathize with the editor. She,
too, knows what a task 1t is to
bring things to pass.

New Law Saves Much Money

Dep1ty Auditor General Simpson Is
enthusiastic over the manner in which
the new law is working out. requiring
probate judges to file monthly reports
Of the number Of persons committed 10
insane asylums, the amount OF proper
" they possess and the names Of their
immediate relatives or guardians the
heads Of the various state institutions
tor the insane. and the medical super
intendent of the Home for the Feeble
Minded and Epileptic render monthly
reports and by these statements it is
possible to ascertain whether any in
mates OF these inLitutionss are being
supported by the state when wealthy
relatives could easily afford to pay for
their maintenance.
Only the other day. says the Lansing
journal. II WAS discovered that hoy

Home for the Feeble Minded and Epil.

mother who Is said TO be worth nearly
$50 900 1t costs about 5000 for the
maintenance Of each inmate, and
there are about 5000 persons IN the
various insane asylums each year.
Deputy Simpson estimates that the
law requiring the probate judges and
the heads OF these institutions to file
monthly report will be the means OF
saving the state about Si5o. 600 each
year. Owing to the isanuer in which
property is often be BY guardians or
