Meeting Him Half Way.

A hundred things happen every
day, says an exchange, that the
newspaper man never hears about.
He docs the best he can, keeps his
eyes and ears open, but he is only a
human being, not omnipresent or
endowed with the gift of foreknowl-
edge, and therefore cannot foretell
the occurrence of an event. And yet
you often wonder why this thing or
that thing was not published. An
editor always does his best to give
all the news, is always glad to pub
lish any item of general interest. So
before you criticise an editor be sure
that you have done your part in
furnishing him the particular item
of news that you failed to find in
the paper. Either send the news to
the Editor or Invite him to come
where the news 10.

Dick Dobbs, of Marietta, who
formerly represented the thirty-fifth

Mr.. Dobbs will consent to serve, as
he has legislative experience and IS
