Read a Newspaper or You're a
Stacker

The man or woman who in
these critical times fails to read
a good newspaper regularly is a
slacker," declared Prof. Willard
G.. Bleyer, head of the Depart
ment of Journalism at the Uni
versity of Wisconsin, in address
ing the students of the Library
School last week.
1t is the patriotic duty of
every person in this country to
keep informed in regard to the
epoch-making events and utter
ances that are reported in the
press from day to day." he con-
tinued.
THE food Of opinion is the
news of the day. as President
Wilson has well said, and it
behooves every citizen not only
to read the news, but to form
intelligent opinions in regard
to it.
Intelligent public opinion,
without which we cannot have
true democracy, is the sum total
of the opinions of individual
and the opinions of
these citizens, must be formed
largely from the news which is
printed in newspapers.
by failing to read the news
and to consider its significance,
a man 10 shirking his duty to his
country just as truly as he is
when he fails to express his
opinions by casting his vote at
an election. Press Bulletin.
