Editors Are Human.

We often wonder if it has ever
occurred to some people that edi-
tors are human, and not super
beings gifted with second sight.
An editor is constantly on the
hunt for news of interest to the
people who read and pay for his
paper, and he never Intentionally
omits an article of any Importance.
The success of his paper depends
upon his impartiality in this re-
spect.
And yet often some person con
ceives the erroneous idea that the
editor has purposely left out some
item concerning them or their
families.
Has it ever occurred to them
that the editor may not have heard
of that particular item, although
he searched diligently in his eff
forts to secure all of the news?
There is vely effective remedy
for these isolated but inadvertent
omissions. The next time YOU
have piece of news concerning
yourself, or yourself, or your
1eighbors, or of your community,
give it to the editor yourself, or
phone or write it in to him, and do
not depend upon others to do it.
They may be more interested in
affairs on their own side of the
fence.
The editor will thank you for
your thoughtfulness in enabling
him to secure news that will add
to the value of his paper and make
it of interest to all of the people.
for that is his mission in life.
He is human, as we'll as you.

THEY REFUSE TO EAT

! At periods in most childrens' lives
theyfail to relish their meals and refuse
to eat even the delicacies prepared to
tempt their appetites. They lack am
bition, and growth seems mpeded,
which causes anxiety and worry.
To compel them to eat is grave
mistake, because nutrition is impaired.
Healthful exercise in fresh air and sun
shine is important, but equally import
ant is a spoonful of SCOTS Emulsion
three times day to feed the tissues
and furnish food-energy to improve
their blood, aid nutrition and sharpen
their appetites.
The highly concentrated medicinal
food in Scott's Emulsion supplies the
very elements children need to build mp
their strength. They relish Scott's-it is
free from alcohol.
