one OF the least understood and
appreciated persons that make up
our citizenship is the provincial
newspaper owner, editor case setter
or devil, whichever you please to
call him.
Unlike the editor in chief of our
large city papers who depends on
his force of specialists to provide
the matter with which to fill the
pages of the paper 30 that it may
retain its popularity, enlarge its
circulation and enhance the value
OF its advertising span, the country
editor in many cases is compelled
to act as his own reporter in gath
ering the local items of news which
are worth mentioning, make his
own selection from exchanges in
the clipping department, write all
the editorial matter (which fre-
quently covers more space than is
used in the large dailies take his
turn at the cases, on the day of
issue handles the lever on the old
Washington hand press, folds, ad.
dresses and mails his weekly edi-
tion and after caring for number
less minor items is glad because
the whole thing is over, even tho
he knows the next week or the
next day will begin the same old
grind, which like the river "goes
on forever" or at least in the case
OF the country newspaper man, un-
til he wears out and his son or
next of kin takes his place to con-
tinue in the round of trying to
amuse or interest an unappreciative
public.
How many there are of US who
pick up our local paper and after
running through the four to eight
pages lay it down with sigh, ex-
pressing supposed grievance, and
the remark to our wife or oldest
daughter nothing in the paper as
usual" and how few there are who
have ever attempted to write even
a quarter column, original item,
that would attract general interest,
and as consequence how few
there are who can appreciate the
grind in the necessity of producing
columns of such matter week in
and week out, and year in and year
out and on, and on, and yet; there
are very few country editors in
cluded in our lists of suicides or
as inmates of our asylums.

Children are much more likely to con
tract the contagious diseases when they
have colds. Whooping cough, diphtherla,
scarlet fever and consumption are dis.
eases that are often contracted when the
child has cold. That is why all medi-

advertising and paying end of the
venture for in most cases an ex-
animation of the subscription list
of the country paper will reveal a
woeful list of delinquents.
No one has ever known a rich
country editor who became wealthy
from the income of provincial
paper and why then do you sup
pose he is, and continues to bep
Is he ambitious? For what? 1t
would imply the innocence of baby
hood, the imbecility of old age, or
the imagination of Munchausen
as characteristic, were we to as
cribe this as one of his virtues.
Does he hope for the appreciation
of his fellows? 1t would take the
blood of hero and the balanced
brain of scientist to bear with
equanimity the sneers of his clint
age. Can it be that he is pure and
simple, philanthropist? This
virtue argues the accompaniment
of bank roll and philanthropy is
not good provider of shoes for
the little ones or of breakfast food.
1t don't seem that any of these can
be the reason. He stands almost
alone, his nearest compatriot the
country preacher, the subject of
donation parties and showers. Then
why is he? What is he? And
the reason for it. Can you explain
who's Who and Why?"
THE MORAL
Don't forget to subscribe and
pay for your local paper. If you
have knowledge of anything worth
while help out the editor by letting
him know of it so that he may pass
a good thing along. Last but not
least, be a good fellow and thus
make the world around you smile.
It's better to smile than to sneer.
Give the Devil his due even tho
he may be the country editor.
