The government is falling into the
same error that many corporations
have by getting press agents who
know absolutely nothing about the
newspaper business. There are firms
that are wasting thousands of dollars
in postage and paper sending columns
of stuff to the papers that is never run
For instance, a press agent for the
whiskey trust sends to every paper in
the country from six to forty columns
a week of stuff prepared for publ
cation and we have never seen a COL
umn of it run. An auto tire company
sends us from five to seven columns e
week but of cours it goes to the waste
basket along with bushels of similar
get forty columns day from the var
ious government activities, with re-
quests to publish. One paper claims
to have received a bushel measure
packed full in a week from the vari-
Gus Councils of Defense, with a re-
quest that it be published. Many an
editor, getting along with the mini
mum Of help, that his paper may not
get into the suspended list" in these
times of vanishing profits, can scarce
ly sort that vast array of matter to see
what is really valuable and so is COM
PEELED to leave it out, though he might
like to publish some
If one-tenth of the present amount
was sent great deal more would be
printed and enough might be saved
thereby to pay the publishers for
some that is distinctly advertising

Today marks the birth anniversary
of George Washington, the Father OF
his Country. He was born in 1892 and
besides being the head of the Ameri-
can army in the war for independence
was also the first president of the
United States, and declined a third
term, setting an example which has
been followed since that time. In the
direst days in winter quarters at Val
ley Forge when things looked the
blacklist, owing to hunger and want
his spirit never faltered but was an
incentive to the almost disheartened
soldiery. An example to be followed
by Americans today in their fight fol

"Ah, me-" sighed the successful
man who was revisiting the old village
school, "how time does fly! Thirty
years ago sat iD this very front seat,
and it seems to me as if it were but
yesterday. If l am not very much
mistaken, you'll find my initials carved
on the desk" They're there, right
enough" said the present occupant of
the seat. Il got whipped for doing 1t
just because my initials happened to
be the same as yours"

Morris tribune. [volume] (Morris, Minn.) 1880-2000, 1918-06-07

As a result Of the food department.
urging women to refrain from using
wheat -four. several of the ladies Of
Morris held meeting last week to
discuss ways and means of making
bread without white flour. 1t seems
that the ladies decided this could not
be done and the conclusion was that
some wheat flour must be used. The
matter was taken up with the auth
critics in Minneapolis and Mr.. Will
son informed County Food Admins
traitor Adams that already 1000 fam
lilies in the city had not used wheat
flour for over a month and that they
were making bread which served the
needs very well, altho it is not to be
expected that the same grade of
bread will be obtained as heretofore.
Recipes for wheatless bread will be
received in a few days and will be
published in The Tribune.
