ga prophet is not without honor
in his own country" In the Septem-
published in New York City, IN
der the head of Remarkable Say
ings' by such noted people as Billy
Sunday, J. Odgen Armour, Mary
Piclkford, Robert Goldsmith, Ed
Howe, Laura Jean Libby, Senator
Reed, Elihu Root, Woodrow Wilson,
Emperor William, and other promi-

ing from the pen of P. CaspaI
Harvey, professor of Journalism at
the Fort Hays Normal School: "That
conspicous silence that is heard
comes from the 26,533 college grad
yates of last June"
In every community you will find
people that are very "touchy" es-
pecially does the average country
newspaper man find it true. Not long
ago a lady called and reported that
she had some friends visiting her.
By accident the local failed to ap-
} pear in the next issue. The lady pun
| ished the editor, or thought she did,
by stopping the paper. Another lady
because we failed to mention that z
married daughter had given birth to
son, was very much peeved, and
threatened to stop the paper; but by
: our promising to do better in the fu-
ture, continued to read it. The editor
has to be very careful about stepping
on the pet corns of its readers, as
the first thing a patron thinks OF is
/, to punish the editor by stopping his
, papers. However, we should hate tC
publish a paper that everyone would
be perfectly satisfied with. We would
surmise there was something wrong
In our general makeup If we
! couldn't occasionally get a rise
) from some one. Therefore, We shall
continue to publish the Free Pres:
to please the editor, which will pro
2 baby please some of its patrons some
3 of the time; but not all of its patron,
Z all the time
