Why is an Enitor?

An editor is man that sells
soft soap by the year insteed of by
the cake.
He runs a newspaper, in which
ne lies about the looks of the
bride, the fitness of the candi-
dates, and the virtue of corpses.
The things he tells the truth
about are the things he leaves
out.
Newspapers are supposed to
run, but many are barely able to
walk, due to too much riding by
free space grsfters, and too much

encouraged.

The Commission on Conserva-
ton of Canada has demanded
drastic Legislation requiring the
guaranteeing of subjects of vene-

in operation. Why should we wait

omous with civilization before we
adopt the only possible efficient
measure Of defense?
A campaign must be waged

The world needs new gospel,
a new religion. Not substitute

The popular belief is an editor
cannot live unless his subscribers
pay up.
That's probably why they do
not pay up,
The most successful editors
are not the ones who get the
most out of the business but the
ones that get out of business.
Many an editor has made good
money out of the newspaper bus
iress if entirely out.
What the. public seems to want
an editor to make is haste, not
money.
The newspaper business is not
80 much profession as q habit.
If the habit is not broken the
editor will be.
After the editors, the paper man
ufactures make the most money out
of the newspaper business.
And it would be much better
for the newspaper business if the
paper manufacturers we're not
after the editors.
One of the saddest things in an
editors life is that be had to keep
the manufacturers from starving
to death.
Editors are said to mould pub.
lie opinion.
We have often wondered why
public opinion was so mouldy.
Most public men are made by
newspapers, which is one of the
greatest objections to newspapers.
The freedom of the press is one
of the grandest heIitages left to
US by the fathers who founded
our republic, but the freedom of
many presses ere ologged with
mortgages, advertising contracts,
and other attachments.
Real editors have to be born.
For that matter, however, so
do other people.
An editor never knows before
he goes into the business what
be knows after he gets in. If he
did he would not go in.
That's why an editor is -Ex.

Camp Meade Soldiers

From a Staf Correspondent.
CAMP MEADE. Admiral, Md. Novem-

men from other parts of the country in
cluded in the division. will have an op-
portunity to avail themselves Of the hos
pitality Of District residents Thanksgiv-

Several days ago when Maj Gen. Kuhn.
commanding officer here, was told OF the
plans being organized by The Star to
have District people invite soldiers from
ton to eat turkey with them on the last
Thursday In November, the general
thought Thanksgiving was too far in the
future to discuss.
Since then, however, the idea of Wash
ington residents extending hospitality to
the men in cantonments has been more
fully explained to the general
Every officer in camp has expressed
unqualified approval of the plan. And to-
day it was learned at division headquar-
ters that Thanksgiving, being national
holiday, it will be observed as such in
Camp Meade, no duty being required of
the men, except necessary police and
fatigue. Thirty per cent of the personnel
Of each unit may also leave camp for the
day-that is, passes will be granted to
not more than one-third of the men in
each company or other organization.
Men winning passes will have to show
clean records. as Is the case now in re-
gard to the half-holiday and Sunday
