WHY NEWSPAPER MEN WORRY

WHY NEWSPAPER MEN WORRY
The truth is that these are not the
merriest days that ever were within
the experience of this country's edi-
tors and publishers. The serious ques-
tion of the supply and the price of
print paper confront them, one and
all. As everybody knows, the ad-
vance during the past year in the cost
Of all grades Of paper has been heavy
and constant. That is trouble enough
for any newspaper Office, but on top
Of that is the problem of getting sup

have been sounding the warning ever
since last summers early weeks. 1t

THE POWER OF ADVERTISING

to sway masses Of people is being
daily demonstrated, and almost daily
we see some person or corporation
appealing to it for justice, or for con-
sideration. The Bethlehem Steel
company employed it to persuade the
people to influence the government
against establishing steel-making
plant. The Rockefeller mining inter-
ests used it to justify it's policy with
it's employees. The street-railway
companies of New York appealed to
the suffrance of the people through
sustained advertising. Last week the
largest coal-distributing company in
the East took pages in New York
newspapers to allege that it did not
practise extortion. The big Jersey
Public Service corporation used large
newspaper space to refute the charges
of it's critics made during the late po-
litical campaign. Appeal through ad-
vertising for good purposes is always
being made, and it is always success

how soon this state Of mind began to
give way before O'NeiI's matter of fact
cheerfulness. He refused TO listen TO
their thanks and made them believe
that they were comforting a real favor
upon him by accepting the response

completion Of that structure he was
hard pressed to find a lodging place
for them until Eliza and her brother
insisted that they share the bungalow
with them, a thing ONeil had not felt
at liberty to ask under the circum-
stances. Nor was the tact of the
brother and sister less than his. They
received the two unfortunates as hon
Ored guests.
Gradually the visitors began to feel
that they were welcome, that they
were needed, that they had an impor-
tant task to fulfill, and the sense that
they were really of service drove
away depression. Night after night
they lay awake discussing the wonder
full change in their fortunes and plan
ming their future. Natalie at least had
not the slightest doubt that all their
troubles were at an end.
One morning they awoke to learn
that O'Neil had gone to the States,

through the town that the slightest
