\ PROFESSION OF SERVICE.

(kanSaS Indlstrialist, Manhattan) +.
Wasn't it I'r. Samuel Johnson
who remarked of a noted criminal
that he had at one time in his life
descended so low as to edit a news
paper" Time was when people
agreed with DIR. JoLnson's attitude
toward journalism. That was the
time when newspapers either were
subservient TO a rotten government
or else. unwilling 70 bow 10 the rul-
ers whom they justly despised. were
denied access to adequate sources
of information and had 10 depend
on gossip and rumor 20 ill their
columns.
Once in a while, nowadays. some
good soul. reborn out Of the 18th
or the 18th century. deplores jour
nalism in much the mood Of DR..
Johnson. Most people realize. how
ever. that while newspapers and
magazines are far from perfect, they
have done and are doing an meal
culable amount of good that no
other agency could do.
Journalists themselves, moreover,
are growing prouder and prouder Of
their profession. In the last 20 years
history after history has been pub
lished by the older newspapers of the
country, detailing the particular ac-
complishments of these papers in
serving the public interest. This
year the Hartford Conn. Times
celebrating its centenary has this
TO say:
Length is not the true measure
of public service. Celebrating the one
hundredth anniversary of the estab-
lishment of the Times, we should
not emphasize the number Of its
years but for the conviction. shared
we hope by its readers. that the
years have been fruitful Of achieve
ment in the interests of the COM
munity it serves. Cynics allege that
newspapers are published solely to
make money No newspaper man
agement minimizes the Importance
of the commercial aspect of its en-
terprise; but all intelligent news
paper publishers know that a news
paper TO survive and prosper. as the

this organization and saw such tri-
umphanr and lucrative career in
front Of him in the United States

England when the Century company
disbanded. Ever since he came to
