POTENCY OF THE PENCIL
Country Press q Factor That Canno
BE Ignored

The attention of the entire country is
repeatedly called to such questions as
conservation of land, water power, ir
rigation, forests, and other natural
resources. The control of our turbulent
rivers is calling for flood protection
The whole country is culver with
new methods and new ideas. We are
al witnessing the accomplishment of
great things. The Panama canal IS
now open; the Keokuk dam has been
harnessed and is creating 225,OOo
horse power for light and power; New
York state is spending $lsO,OOO,OOO TO
improve the Erie canal; and the good
roads movement is booming on every
hand.
Out in the country there is 4 force
that We hear little about, but which is
doing = great work. Every politician
who wants an office realizes it. Every
merchant who is alive knows it Every
school teacher and preacher who wants
to improve school or civic life has to
have its help. No celebration i. at.
tempted without its assistance. N,
funerals or weddings or fires escape il.
No sales of any -sheriff's sales
bargain sales, fire sales, or any other
kind, take place without its knowledge.
Even the great political parties recog-
nige and patronize it. The railways,
until recently-very recently-thought
so much of it that they carried it free.
And this force, so potent in ou.
great republic, is the country editor
and his paper. He is exerc sing a
greater power than he may realize.
and he is very poorly paid as a rule
for the valuable service he renders:
movement can make much progress in
this country if he opposes it and it
will probably need his help to succeed.
At present he is the most misunder-
stood figure in American life. He may
have to act in any capacity, from prin
ter's devil to editor, and he can 20
that. He attends all important public
functions, political, social and religious
He is supposed to know all about the
government. local, state and national;
the tariff and currency bill; income
tax; the best way Of regulating trusts;
and he has to read . few dozen ex-
changes, set type, write copy, read
proof, solicit job work, advertising
and subscriptions.
But there is one big job ahead Of
hin, perhaps the biggest he has ever
tackled. He must lead the merchants
oat into the big field Of better bust
ness and more Of It, by inducing them
to properly advertise. He must teach
them to use the methods in advertising
that sell goods; he must show them
the value of illustrations and above al!
h must make the name and price
plain. When We think how these men
have helped to make the ceustry We
have No doubt that when the opPsFtaai-

BROWN TO EXPLAIN
FLIGHT OYER CITY
Aviator Is Summoned to Ap-
pear Before Aero Club
Tomorrow.

Ralph NJ. Brown. the twenty -one-year-
old aviator who. It 10 asserted. drove q
Thomas flying boat over the Polo Grounds
and across the upper part OF Manhattan
| Saturday afternoon. has been summoned
! to appear before the contest committee OF
the Aero Club Of America tomorrow at
ternoon to show cause why his license
should not be suspended for violating the
Aero Clubs rule against flying over cities.
Brown violated two rules Of the Aero
Club. One forbids flying over cities and
the other torbids Aging over spectators
or contestants in games OF sports.
There was criticism yesterday because
the Aero Club did not have an Official
observer witness the flight. The club
contented Itself with warning Brown and
now the question has been raised as to
whether he actually few over the city
and Polo Grounds.
Fsusto Rodriguez. who was Brown
passenger. told President Alan r. Hawley
at the Aero Club yesterday that they did
not violate tho Aero Cube rule They
| were not directly over the Polo Grounds
at any time. he says. and they only cut
across the corner OF the city formed by
the junction Of the North and the Harlem,
rivers The part of the city they cut
over is narrow and sparsey settled, he
told Mr.. Hawley. So far as is known no
one from the Aero Club saw the flight
from such a position as to be able to state
accurately whether Brown violated the
rules.
The regulations Of the International
Aeronautical Federation will pArmit the
Aero Club TO refuse licenses to graduates
OF the Thomas aviation school at Bath for
the period Brown IL under suspension.
It WAS inttmated yesterday that this &C
ton would be taken In Browns case II
II 10 shown that his flight WAS made with
the sanction of the Thomas company.
