TO CORRESPONDENTS.
Suggestions Which,if Followed,
Will Help the Printer.

Nearly every person has occasion
at times when he feels called upon
to write some article for publication
in the newspaper. He or she is dis
appointed at not seeing the article
in print. To insure your article ap-
pearing in the newspaper you wish
it to, observe these rules and most
of the time your piece will be printed
First, and most important of all,
send the news when it is fresh. No
paper can afford to publish news af-
ter it is known to everybody in the
community. Don't wait week or
so before writing what you have,
but send it right off.
Second, write on one side of your
paper only, and do not abbreviats
or leave for the editor to fill in. In
writing names Of persons be careful
always to give initials and not leave
the editor to guess at them.
Third, do not write editorials, or
in any other way give your opinion
about the matter you are writing of.
The editor of the paper is paid to do
that.
Fourth, always be sure that the
article you send in comes under the
head news" For example, after a
death has been published long ar
ticle upon the good character, and
other good attributes of the dead,
is not news. it is an obituary, and
has to be paid for. The newspapers
always sympathize with the bereav-
ed, but they can't publish personal
articles free. Never send obituary
poetry unless it is to be paid for at
the rate of one cent word. Do
not try to tack an excerpt from the
hymn book on to the end of
news (?) item.
