NUMBER 2
Thanking a Newspaper.

An exchange doesn't go far astray
from the truth by saying
That newspaper editors should give
freely of their time and work and space
in promoting every movement for the
general welfare, every charitable plan
and philanthrophic purpose to thou
sand and one things that are under way
all the time is something that most
people expect as a matter Of course.
Their taking it for granted that in all
such cases editers will lend helping
hand is really a very high compliment
to the newspapers. Ii proves that they
have been doing these things so long,
so willingly and so insistingly that it is
a habit, and thai for tnvIa g DO any
thing else would mean a radical change
in their policy.
For our part, we believe that a
newspaper would fail in it's mission if
it did not support cordially measures
to advance the general welfare ia any
way, We doubt, however, IL the aver
age man or woman has the least idea of
the sum total that paper devotes to
this kind of work in labor, or in dollars
and cents. There are few other
points that come to mind in this con-
nection. One is. that in the pressure
of making and printing a newspaper,
If any particular matter of this kind is
neglected, or even partly overlooked.
criticism is quickly heard. The other is
that no matter how much aid news
paper may give TO any particular pro-
ject or enterprise Of a public nature,
commentator is seldom accorded in
any way. Once in a while, however,
somebody does something which shows
that in his opinion, a little recognition
of help cheerfully given by the press
does the editor and the newspaper no
harm.

If one wants an easy place he might
just as well sit down by the road to
begin with; there are no easy places
among the workers. The wheels Of
the world are turning with great en-
terprises, it's countries are alight with
the dawining of new discoveries and
possibilities, it is filled with the hum
of eager voices and the marvellous
machinery of countless industries; but
these things belong to toilers-to
those so intent upon achievement that
they are sparing neither hand or

for his work than for his own ease
will never do much that is worth
