ing him the facts as you know them. |

write him your appreciation of his aid
in advancing useful reform. Editors do
much for every reform but they would
do more if the people would support
them and encourage with words of sp
probation. Usually the editor hears
from his readers only when they disap-
prove. That is all wrong. Expressed
approval in a case like this adds to the
speed of reform. 1t is your battle as
much as his Owl.
