Occasionally someone somewhere
critlcises the public press, or In
lecture cautions people about read
ing the papers, or ventures 10 state
what q paper should say and hoN
II should say II. There appear inter
Vals Of solicitude on the part Of these
critics. and especially among re-
formers. about the character and con-
duct Of newspapers. Frequently
these observations are not really
legitimate criticism, but ill-informed
conclusions or fault-finding. Legiti-
mate criticism is helpful and takes
into account all the conditions u
newspaper making, what constitutes
news and the pertinency and I'M
portance Of subjects for editorial
comment.
II is not always borne in mind
that newspapers reflect the weak
ness. the errors and conditions good
and bad Of human society Make a
better human society and newspap pers

what other people want omitted,
It is likely there would be no news
papers, for the angles Of view Of
people vary greatly, and what some
want printed is precisely what others
want to have omitted or for when
they have no relish. II is the human
interest element as it appears from

TO the religious work OF the churches,

was represented in few formal no
