There is not a newspaper in
this country whose gross receipts
from patriotic advertising will
amount to one-fourth of its in

in the war.
The newspapers ask no credit,
want none. They have done only
their duty They expect no lau-
rel wreaths, they want none.
They expect no special consider
alton from the government; they
have had none, they want none.
The newspapers will go along,
pursuing the same general course,
hoping, fighting, praying, work
ing for victory, giving a liberal
share of the only commodity they
have to sell-space giving their
all, their very existence, if need
be, to win this war.
But the newspapers do have the
right spirit. Read this para
