So as to look closely collect ons and
other demands upon us of conducting
the Herald through the dizziness of
this summer. the editor has conclu-
ded to give up his annual vacation
outing with the National Editorial
party that was TO tour to New York
CITY this month. Possibly we may
take short-time run off somewhere
before the hot DAYS are over. but our
purpose in the main is to stay home
and try to be on hand constantly and
endeavor to realize cash on what we
have earned in order to tickle those
whom we come to owe by passing on
the ready coin. Reader if you are
owing US anything and can help out
in anyway to putting this purpose
through we shall appreciate it most
highly. We really need the rest and
recreation, but those to whom we
stand sponsor for dues that have a
demand upon US that must be met,
and we wish to see to it though 1t
means a sacrifice.

splendid hospitality extended by the
good men and charming ladies of the
Queen City of the Delta. The Missis-

en- tertaln because OF this fact: 1t
gives the city in which it meets more
publicity than all other conventions
com bined could, should all of them
meet in one city. If newspaper
man attends press meet and is
royalty entertained, he returns home,
takes his pen in hand and proceeds
to tell the world about the good
folks and the great city that enter
tanned him.
