WHAT A NEWSPAPER MEANS
Some Truths That the Average Man
May Not Have Realized, but
Here They Are.

What does the newspaper mean to
you?
There is so much news no one can
carry all Of 1t. Someone must make
selection. Do you appreciate how
much depends upon this selection7
Upon the selection and emphasis Of
the news depends the picture of the
world upon which your judgments are
based.
If business man, your decision in
business Is affected by the newspaper
you read.
In politics your opinions as voter
are swayed by them.
BY what your wife reads you can
see the trend of many of her interests
and needs.
You have your thought turned in
a new channel perhaps by what you
read, and, when you find others con-
cerned as you are and that the idea
has been followed In their brains as
In yours, you possibly discover how
you can do collectively what you alone
never could accomplish.
The newspaper enlarges the view
point OF life for your boy in his college
years. Stories of high purpose Of
achievement strengthen and uplift his
standards. The great world of life
which he has not touched exists to
him np1v os pracautad NV tho NOUS.

ALL WILLING TO PAY FARES
Reason Why Citizens Of Lima, Peru,
Do Not Seek to Evade Their
Street Car Obligations

If fare registers were to be placed
in the street cars of Lima, Peru, there
would be loud protest. This is not
because II is easier to dodge the con-
ductor under the prevailing system.
On the contrary, the travellers of Lima
are willing, even anxious, to pay their
fares. Perhaps that doesn't seem hui
man, but the explanation is that upon
receipt OF the fare a numbered ticket
is presented to the passenger, and 1t
is a valuable lottery ticket.
The car lines are divided into four
sections for the monthly and semi
monthly drawings conducted by the
railway company. In the three impor-
tant sections cash prize Of $3.50 is
offered. The fourth section offers a
prize of $50.
Does the public approve Of the lot

sons rode last year.

The Yankees and Their General.

General Edwards order to the TWEEN
ty.sixth division on the occasion, on July
IL, of its entrance into the Marine Sec
tor for the fighting which was there TO
settle the fate of the world is a proud
item for the archives of the relatives,
friends and home supporters Of the Yam
kee troops. II recounts the brave deeds
Of the division on the two sectors where
it had previously served on the battle
line, and which we now know to have
been the Chemin des Danes and the
Toul sectors. General Edwards order
mentions--though to us the names must
remain blank as yet--four battlefields
upon which, to use his words, the New
England troops had Shown that the
blood Of New England has not attenu
ated, and he adds:
"The same spirit and traditions which
your forefathers made glorious at lex
ington and at Bunker Hill still survive
in the generation w1ich at , ,
---- , have met and defeated the
picked troops Of the enemy. His four
years of experience in active warfare
and the ferocity of his methods have not
daunted you, and on every occasion
where you have been called upon to face
him you have distinguished yourself
with notable yalor and brought credit
upon your division and upon the people
Of New England from which you have
come to engage In this righteous con
fiict."
1t was indeed an honor to select these
unfurloughed New England boys, whose
service in the trenches had been almost
continuous since the first days Of last
February, after preliminary training
of only four months, to enter the great
battle on the Marine on equal terms with
the seasoned French veterans. And
worthily did the division sustain General
Edwards anticipation that "the men
of New England would prove once more
that they are capable of every effort
and every sacrifice which the future may
demand of them"
Let us be proud that the men of our
New England hearts and homes have
borne very ereditably their part in the
larger world struggle for which Lexing-
ton, Bunker Hill and Gettysburg were
but the preparation, and glad also that
they have a commando who is not only
worthy to lead them, but capable of I'M
Outstanding and noting the larger as
poets of their history and their tradi-
tions. Some time those glorious gaps,
those eloquent blanks, in the story Of
their heroism will be filed up; and then,
no doubt, we shall be able to pay our
full tribute to the valor and ability Of
their leader as well 90 to the brave deeds
OF the boys themselves-Boston Tran
