The Euening Newspaper


The other days, when, reading was
more of an aristocratic privilege than
now, it was the fashion to deride any
writing that appealed to the mass of
the people And when, in the field of
news reporting, an attempt was made
to bring the great chronicles of the
world to the home of the humblest
workingman, it was quite the fashion
for the aristocratic purveyors of news
to deride the evening newspaper. But
time runs on and manners change
and it was only the other day that Viii
liam Lyon Phelps of Harvard univers-
ity, when asked to name the two best
newspapers in America, named two
evening newspapers.
The vogue of the evening newspaper
is easily accounted for. Journalistically
considered, it has the advantage in the
gathering Of news. Most of the events
of the world happen in the daytime,
and are completed in the afternoon, and
come freshly to the evening news
paper for fresh distribution to its
clientele.
Morning newspaper interests fre-
quently declare that they have the
best Of it in arrangement--that is,
the long, night hours give them a
chance to sort the news and serve it
in orderly fashion. This is tantamount
to confession that the leisure of the
morning paper in arranging the news
is not broken in upon by the occur
renee of fresh news nor by the need
of handling new facts. II is eonfes-
sion and nothing more, for the claim
that better editing and arrangement
are possible is not proved, since these
are matters Of newspaper organization
solely. The right sort of editors in
the right sort Of organization can
handle between the flash of the wire
and the roar of the presses any item
which the more leisured staff Of the

THE ISLES OF YOUTH

Far out on memory's throbbing sea
Of cherished hope and lost emprize,
OF strangled faith, chained liberty,
The golden isles of youth arise. ..-...
They wear glory on their crest,
Tneir valleys are all wales of peace,
Their flowered fields, that WOO to rest,
The fragrance Of spring release.
Oh! happy dream! OH radiant landl
OF love and faith and innocence
The sad years pass in their hand
Bring naught your loss can recon-
pense;
Yet times, when memory's kindly art
Strips customs bandage from my
eyes,
l see with wildly beating heart,
The golden isles of youth arise.

morning paper can handle, and in as
satisfactory a manner. Superiority is
not matter of day or night, but Of
ability and efficiency-and these are
qualities which are eminent n the
organization Of great evening news.
paper.
Another reason for the wider vogue
of the evening newspaper is 10 be
found on the domestic side Of the
workers. Morning finds us with scant
leisure for reading. The average man
must eat his breakfast, board a
crowded ear, and get down to the
job with no delay. He has no oppor-
tunity to read morning paper at
home and little in the car. II he does
subscribe for one, he either takes it
with him for noon reading, thereby
depriving the folks at home of their
paper, and at the same time reading
for himself news that has already
been rendered incomplete or stale by
the MONDAY editions Of the evening
papers; or he leaves il until night,
only to find himself whole day be-
hind the world.
That has been the great difficulty
in morning newspapers becoming the
home newspaper-either the head Of
the family is depdived of il, or the
rest of the family is deprived Of II.
Whereas, the evening paper arrives
just in time to be of use TO all the
family-and IL stays in the home
where il is delivered, because there is
no occasion to take il out. The head
of the house comes home, washes up,
takes his supper, and sits down with
the paper. Mothers and daughters
take the sections that interest them,
the son takes the sporting page-and
thus all Of them are engaged; father
with the war news and editorials,
mother with the advertisements-in-
tent or tomorrow g shopping expedition

perchance, daughters with the fash.
ions and beauty hints, son with the
baseball hopes of the big teams.
That is the hold of the evening
paper-it is home paper, delivered
at the home, kept in the home, and
this at time of day when the home
has time to read; at the only time, in
fact, when the average household can
settle itself TO read
This is reflected in the tone of the
evening paper. A paper that goes
only TO offices and business places,
or can be used only by that class
which goes to business several hours
after the whistles have blown, in.
evitably reflects the temper of that
class; whereas the paper which goes
to the homes, the homes of every
class, inevitably reflects the point Of
view from which citizens as home
makers consider public questions. All
our questions, political, moral and
and in the home, and for the home
anyway. The home is the real forum
and study, the sanctum sanctorum Of
American life; and the editor who
does not allow himself to be guided
by it in every column of his paper,
soon finds that while he may vanish,
the American home remains.
The evening paper is the home paper
SO by the natural circumstances
Of our common life. 1t is read by
more people in the average family, its
offerings from weighty discussion to
advertisements arrive at time more
propitious for careful consideration on
the part Of the home, than do those of

GrierSOn'S
Triumph
By Hollis Otpay

Grierson limped slowly along the
track. Some 1900 miles ahead lay
Chicago. At various intervals along
the track were telegraph Offices. Grier-
son had only to send a wire and trans
portation would be rushed through to
him, but this was not Grierson's way.
When he had left home with the
touring company there had been a
scene in his fathers office that would
have resulted in an open rupture had
not both men held their tempers un-
der perfect control.
Then he went down to the station
to join the Harding Metropolitan
Stars, and Gamewell Grierson turned
back to his rosewood desk. trying to
derive some satisfaction from the
thought that the experience would
cure the boy of his stage fever.
The crash came in Nevada The
manager had suggested to Jimmie
that he could have half interest If
he would move the company, pointing
out that with railroad president for
a father the procurement of passes
should be matter of great ease.
Jimmie's reply had not been marked
by temperatures.
Then he had set his face east and
more than 500 miles of ties and tracks
had already been covered when he
came into sight of Elcho.
Adjoining the station platform were
some of the boys from the Blazing II
outfit and they were pleased to be
facetious at his expense. Jimmie was
too tired to be angry, and ohaffed
back as well as he could At last
Dusty Miller, the foreman, suggested
that they needed man

Jimmie. Want to take me on?"
Can you ride?" demanded Dusty
II guess can" was the modest
answer. 1T won't be any worse than
walking yhow."
Dusty led the way to where the
ponies were tethered and the scanty
population gathered to watch the fun
With malice aforethought, Jimmie
climbed into the saddle from the right
hand side. He knew that he was be

fng mounted upon the star bucker of
the outfit and he wanted to give the
boys all the fun there was due them
They shouted as he sought to con-
vince the broncho that mounting from
the right was proper proceeding,
but the laugh died down as Jimmie
suddenly shot into the saddle.
1t was hard to say whether the
men or the pony were the more sur
prised. The pony stood stock still to
think the matter over and that ten
seconds grace enabled Jimmie to find
the other stirrup. Then, with a
squeal, the pony began It's perform
ance.
Twenty minutes later Jimmie refined
up in front of the Golden Dream sa-
loon and slipped from the saddle.
How about it," he demanded.
You're on assented Dusty Come

But great was Jimmies surprise
when a couple of days later he was
riding across the range, to be accost-
ed by Grace Beavers, the niece of the
owner of the ranch.
Are you the Shakespearean cow
boy?" she demanded as she refined In
her pony. You are the man they
call Hamfat are you not?"
