The Associated Press.

IAN especially Instructive article Ivy
Frank b. Notes. president of tie
Associated Press, appears in the May
issue of. the North American Review,
wildly Explaining the great service
the Associated press is doing tre
world as a news gathering and
spreading agency, the greatest in ex.
istenee. Mr.. Noyes states the 90
jects of the associations shows that
1t is comprised of newspapers as its
members and is their servant and
not their owner. The career OF the
association is reviewed, extraordl-
nary feats accomplished by it are
cited and the personal sacrifice,
hardships and the Ike encountered
by lis writer's. the meaning OF its on
Grafton to the world as a dissem-
inator of wholesome and helpful in
formation and other features of use
fulness to all nations are set forth
in considerable detail. The article is
a precious contribution and the Tel
egram regrets that it is unable.to re-
produce 1t in full. 1t urges everyone
to purchase OF copy of the May num-
Der of the North American Review
and read the article.
Mr.. Noyes's contribution ends as
follows:
The news service OF the Associated
Press does not consist Of its leased
wire or it Office. Its soul is in the
personal service of human men, Of
men with eyes to see, with ears 10
hear, with hands to write, and with
brains to understand, of men who
are proud when they succeed, hui
inflated when they fail and resentful
when maligned. The telegraph wires
are but the blind instruments of this
service, though the wire has brought
the uttermost parts of the world
marvelousIy close. These human
entities are ranging the world p
send word of its dolngs, of its re-
joicings, and its Borrowings to satisfy
the thirst OF the people for inelii-
gence OF the march events.
