alter, books, automobiles and baseball
are among the great industries which
are just as commercial as the manu-
facture of soap or soup which have
received great deal Of free space In
newspapers because Of real or fan
ced belief that the public vas inter
ested in them
This real or fancied belief has beer
stretched to the limit. Like The man
tie Of charity, 1t covers an immense
number of press agent sins.
There Is only one position pos
sible for the newspaper which
proposes to play fair with its
| readers treat all advertisers right
and retain its self-respect, and
that Is to publish as advertising
all paid advertising, and to pub
+ lish as news everything that Is
news
There Is only one test for the news
Woula it be published as news any
way, irrespective Of whether 1t helps
or hurts an advertiser? If so, then IL
should be published. If not. no ad-
vertising pressure should put it in. or
keep it out, as the case may be.
The story upon which successful
newspaper is built is to publish the
news in which its readers are inter-
ested--impersonally. impartially and
tD tl,ot a q
space to sell to advertisers under GER
tain restrictions. In that space the
advertiser is supreme. The state
ments are made over his own name.
The Public Ledger indorses the adver-
tiser and his statements to the extent
that they are honest and truthful, and
that the business is legitimate and fit
to use the columns of the Public
Ledger.
The Public Ledger will not publish
free any advertising matter, whether
set as news matter or set as display,
because:
First--It believes in treating all adj
vertsers alike. If free matter Is pub
llshed for one, why not for another?
Second--Its readers have a right to
recognize advertising and distinguish
it from the regular reading matter Of
the paper.
Third-Juggling with the boundary
line between the real news and the
paid advertising destroys the conf
dence of the reader in the newspaper.
The strength of the Public Ledger
rs an advertising medium is its integ-
rty on this subject. The more free
matter a paper prints, the less the
reader thinks of it; the less the value
of the free stuff to the advertiser and
finally the less the value of the actual
paid space to the advertiser.

pie and clean-cut 1t has space for

ECLIPSE OF THE SUN;
SOME FACTS ABOUT It
ABOUT 81 MILES WIDE
VISIBLE EAST.

| The eclipse of the sun on August Fl
next--total in part of Europe and Asia
and partial in northeastern America
is attracting the widespread atten-
ton Of astronomers and scientists,
various expeditions being arranged to
witness this phenomenon. In view of
the public interest in the event, Prof.
c. G. Abbott, head of the astronomical
branch of the Smithsonian Institution.
and recognized authority on solar
phenomena, gives the following pop
ular account of the eclipse, and the
scientific results sought from such
events.
On August 81. 1914, the moon will
pass exactly between the earth and
lar eclipse at sunrise in the northern
states and Canada. but in Persia,
Russia and Scandinavia the full eff
feet will be seen.
Moon and Sun Compared.
Although the moon looks about the
same size as the sun, 1t Is very much
smaller and nearer. The sun is $685.
900 miles in diameter and 100000
miles away, while the moon Is 1853
miles in diameter and $4,000 miles
away. On account of the moon small
size compared with the sun the shad-
ow cast by the moon is a cone, and
the point of this cone just barely
reaches the earth.
In the August eclipse the diameter
of the cone at the earth's surface is
only about 81 miles, so that the eclipse
is visible as total only in a belt about
IS miles wide stretching over the
countries named above The import
ant cities of Bitls Trebizond, kief
Minsk and Riga lie near the center of
this belt. 1t passes about 100 miles
north Of Stockholm and Trondhem.
The eclipse will be seen as partial over
a very wide area, including north
eastern America, Greenland, Europe,
half of Asia and half Of Africa. With
in this region only portion of the
suns disk will be hidden by the moon.
Eclipse Of Short Duration.
Wherever the solar eclipse is seen
as total, the sky will become nearly
as dark as full moonlight, and a few
of the brighter stars and planets may
be seen. The duration Of the totality
is longest near Kief in Russia, where
1t is minutes 10 seconds. Sometimes
the moon and sun occupy such posi-
tions that although the moon passes
between the earth and the
sun the shadow cone does not quite
reach the earth. Such solar eclipses
are called 'annular" and are nowhere
total eclipses. In the most favorable
case total eclipse may last over 7
minutes at a station, but such occa-
sions are very rare.
There will be total ecipses visible
In the United States on June s, 1918.

sale to advertisers who manufacture
honest goods and sell them at fair
prices. 1t has no space to sell to dis
honest, fraudulent or misleading ad-
vertisers at any price Its news col
umns are not for sale. 1t will give a
full and just measure to every adver-
tisef who buys advertising space. and
1t will give no more than that. All
additional space must be paid for, and
all additional space must he used as
advertising space, fully identified and
marked as advertising.
The value of free publicity is great
ly overestimated Many stories are
told Of the cleverness with which the
newspapers are worked to give space
to gigantic steamship, cloud piercing
Office buildings, brands Of champa gne
served at important dinners, inter-
views with men whose names are
identified with industries and manu-
featured articles, but the value of this
advertising is tremendously overes-
selling goods 1t is nearly worthless.
The tip in every form was never
held in such bad repute. Whether
the tip takes the form of the quarter
used to stop the brush Of the assidu-
GUS Pullman porter or the form of an
ambassadorship as reward for cleo
ton to the presidency. it is all form
Of graft, and 1t is form of graft that
the Public Ledger proposes to discour-
age. The Public Ledger will publish
any item Of news that Is intrinsically
interesting to enough of its readers to
be worth while, irrespective of whe-
Their that item Is an indirect adver-
easement of any business or article,
and irrespective Of whether that BUSH
ness or article is using the advertising
columns of the Public Ledger but no
amount of advertising space will buy
a line Of reading matter in the Pub
lie Ledger
