unlOnlSm. AS editor OF newspaper
Post, refused to publish any of his {
opinions, or anything at all except
straight advertising for the stuff he
was trying to sell.
Post Cancelled his contract and l
was glad to get him and his adver-
tisements out of the paper.
/ once told a big advertiser big
stoBekeeper this: IF you don'tmake
money by advertising in my paper
you are a fool business man for adj
vertising in it. If you do make
money, then / am under no obliga-
ton to you, and the policy of my
paper is none Of your business. /
don't care for your advice on policy,
and don't feel under any more obliga-
ton to you than do to the poorest
man in town who has penny to buy
my paper"
That was how felt about Post and
his advertising, and it is the attitude
all publishers should take toward
their advertisers. If Post made mill
lions out of newspaper advertising,
why should newspaper publishers feel
under any obligation to him?
If he made money by advertising
he got value received and was en-
titled to nothing else.
I say that the real obligation of a
newspaper should be. to its readers.
There is an implied contract be-
tween a publisher of a newspaper and
a reader that if the reader pays for
his paper he is to get the truth. The
publisher who colors the news or
suppresses the truth, or distorts it so
as to deceive his readers, deliberately
cheats his readers-just as much as
a grocer cheats his customer if he
puts sand in sugar or palms off oleo-
margarine as fresh country butter
straight from the chUrn.
If I were asked now what is the
matter with Chicago, would say

there is not nearly so much in

torials in moulding public opinion as
in the earlier days Of journalism in
this country. Many newspapers now
are moulding public opinion by
manipulating the news columns.
The editors take mental attitude
of superiority, treating their readers
as so many children. They sit back
and decide how much of the truth
THEY, in their assumed, superior wis
dom, think their readers should have.

Freaky World Is Coming
From the Buffalo News.

 freaky place this world will be in some 5000 years or so if the pre- aictions of scientists come near being fulfilled.
 Statistics show lately that girls are putting on weight right along and arc growing taller with rapdity which has never been observed before. And according to all indications 1t seems that in the somewhat distant future the females of the species" will be much taller than the male" One of the main reasons ascribed to this develop nent is the growing love of sports and outdoor exercise on the part of wom- en. They have more time to devote to sports while the men arc busy pur- suing their business intereas
 Careful investigation by the British association spread over a lengthy pc riod shows that girls of 13 nowadays are taller than the boys of the same age Tue most striking development of the girls takes place between the eleventh and thirteenth years. Before that the boys and girls are generally about equal

man. turning tap. sends jet of water spouting into the chamber to extingussh any still-burning fragments.
 Everything seems chaos. but everyone knows what to do-they have done it time after time. and in less than 9 seconds ve hear a sharp order; 'Rignt gun-1oad,'
 A man moves an upright lever, and an arrangement looking like an miniature lift climbs into view through the floor. II has come mp from the shellroom below laden with the new charge and projeetiie, and stops dead in the rear of the gun.
 Reposing in a tray Is the shot itself. Another lever is worked. and a flexible chain hydraulic rammer, looking like a snake, darts out of it's resting place and pushes the shot before it into the breeoh of the gun.
 It is driven home with dull thud. The rammsr is withdrawn. another handle is pulled and two enormous brown cylinders of cordite fall into the tray just va eated by the projectlle. They. too. are rammed home. and before we quite realize what has happened. the rammer and lift have disappeared. the breech of the gun has been swung home, and the great weapon Is ready for firing.
 In the fire control position the gJlnnery lieutenant has seen the first shot tear a. Jagged hole in the target. and promptly whispers an order to a man al his side. Ihs lstttef moves n small ltfnuie. ana jo seconds later there is another discharge.
 In about 10 minutes it ia all over and the ship is approaching the target to see the result of her shooting. The structure Is badly battered, but most of the lattice work Is stil standing. and is riddled with holes.
 The captain and gunnery lieutenant are both on the bridge, with telescopes to their eyes.
 Very good shooting!e murmurs the former.
 Not so bad, sir" agreed his junior.

Carrying an Umbrella

From the New York Sun.
 "There are a great many persons in N5ured on windy. rainy nights because qthey hold their umbrellas down in or der to protect their faces from the driving rain,' explained an ambulance surgeon. '1n their desire to protect themselves from the rain they place themselves in grave danger of being struck and run over by surface cars, automobiles and other vehicles.
 'If you wish proof of my assertion just stand in a doorway some night where you are protected from the rain md where you are in position to sec an expanse of thoroughfare which all kinds of vehicles use. You will be sur prised at the large number of per sons you will notice crossing the thoroughfare with their umbrellas held down so far that it is impossible for them to see anything approaching. They seem oblivious of danger, and a spectator would suppose from their &C., tions that there was not the remotest chance of an accident occurring.
 Tt i a fact that many pedestrians are injdred on windy, rainy nights. With their umbrellas pulled down so that it Is impossible to see ahead or to the sides, the pedestrians walk in front of vehicles and are knocked down and injured before they realize what has happened" g5

JAP BEAN DOES WE'LL
 IN THIS COUNTRY
Agricultural Department Thinks It Will Prove Valuable Addition To
 American Crop Plants

X plant immigrant from Japan that seems likely to prove a most desirable addition to American agriculture is the adsuid bean, which has been successfully grown on the governments farm at Ar. lington, Na.. and at many other places It's most valuable features lies in It's large yield of seed, says the New York Herald Owing tos its texture the bean is easily ground into meal or flour, and has proved far superior to any other bean for that purpose. It's flavor is delicate and H lacks any objectionable 'beany' taste The adsuld bean is most popular food in Japan
 The first adsuki bean brought to this country most probably was the 'red-seed- ed bean which Commodore Perry brought back in 1851 after his famous trip to tho far east when he first established com muncation between this country and Ja- pan. 1t has not been. however. until comparatively recently that the bean was expsrimentcd with in a scientific man ner in America In lS9t the Kansas ex- pertinent station had the beans submit ted to several housekaepers for trial and their recommendations of it were in gen- clal most favorable. The United States department of agriculture Is now giving detailed description of its experiments With the bean in a new bulletin. Five oflcntal species Of Beans.
 The average yield per acre of the best varieties of the aduski bean at the gov eritment's farm has been about % bush els. The bean is Q summer annual re- ouiring about the same climatic conditions as the common bean. The plants are bushy in habit, growing from one and l cne-half to two feet high, according to variety and soil The beans are not only prolific, but ripen evenly and do not shat ter readily. It has been evident, however | that these beans cannot compete with
 either cowpeas or soy beans as hay pro- ! ducers. Their initial growth is slow and
 their total yield of herbage inferior. | In Japan the adsuki commands a higher
 price than any other bean, the varieties l with maroon colored seeds being most 1 largely used. In every Japanese city are ! shops where adsukl beans and adsuki
 bean meal are sold, and among the-most common cakes and confections are those made wholly or in part from adsuld bean meal.
