Mr.. GRANT NOT SENSATIONAL
Sermon on Newspapers and

The Rev. Percy Stickney Grant rector of

Newspapers and Crime last evening. eX-
planning at the beginning that he did not
wish to he sensational and that his facts
were derived from magazine articles. His
definition of news was inferential, and was
delivered in a "reminiscences Of his world
tour With the late Bishop Potter.
Mr.. Grant said the further away from
America they went the less news of Amer
lea the oapers printed. Finally there was
none. when they reached India When At
last they returned home they had heard nc
news of New York for six months. Mr..
Grant ended:
And do YOU know in 81 that time We

There were no mumurs of polite surprise

The power Of the press, like the sword
Of Damocles. holds the fear of Iidicuie or

otherwise would do Things for IL general

tho papers use this enormous power.
In answering his own question he said an
educator had for three months classified
items in one of the leading newspapers Of
New York with the following result: De

Grant said. and went on 10 tell what was

real news was looked for, the work of
Congress and other matters of the kind, in
the places where this naturally would he
sought stories of crime were found and
that il was impossible to find the other
without fret soaking these into the mind.
The newspapers, in reality an educa-

He declared the only way this could be
done as by suggestion. by people refusing
