NEWSPAPERS ARE DAILY EDt-
GATORS. They have as much to do
in the training of the mind as the
teacher or the text books used in tn"
Schoolroom.
II the EDUCATION is to be of the
RIGHT SORT-if the information that
is printed is TO be of value-it must be
Truthful INFORMATION.
If parents want to have their chill
dren well informed about vital happen
ings in the world. they will sec that
they read the newspapers carefully.
If the children read newspapers
thornUghly-and TO be well informed
they must read advertisements as well
as neWs-then comes up the question
in the minds of the parents: is there
ANYTHING printed in the newspaper that
| would not want my children to read
in the shape OF news or advertisinG?''
Nobody will deny that this is true
therefore. while ii Is tempting some
times TO print advertisements that
bring in large chunks of revenue. til"
right publisher will consider his RE-
SPONSIBILITY TO his readers.
