They have purchased heavily in

their utmost in order to meet the re-

We feel that our people are emf

they do at other seasons Of the year

stocks of the local merchants before
making their Christmas purchases
and, all things being equal, that they
will give the local man the benefit Of

MARSE HENRY GIVES VIEWS
= ON JOURNALISM
philadelphia Public Ledger)

philadelphia Public Ledger
No matter if Atlas stumble and
fall, permitting the world to come
crashing down, there is one virtue
amid all the vices of today, accord
ing to Colonel "Marse." 1t is the
modern newspaper. True to his old
love, he maintains, with Talcott Will
liams, "taken as a whole, the news
paper was never better written and
never did it's work better in any of
its fields than it is doing today"
Some one complained recently that
reporters appeared today to be a
lost art. To this Colonel Watterson
emphatica1ly takes exception, de-
claring the newspapers of the mo-
ment cannot be excelled in the mat
ter of collecting and presenting their
news.
"Where is there anything to COM
pare with it7" he demanded. every
morning at breakfast I read not only
everything of Importance that has
happened in my own state, in my
own country, but throughout all the
world. In what business field do
they work faster and produce more
substantial results than in the mod
ern newspaper Officer"
1t set the colonel reminiscing. He
recalled the time when he first came
to New York as a reporter in 1859.
mo taxicabs, no Us or subways,
no airplanes, fast express trains or
fleet greyhounds of the ocean deep
to get us around then, che solilo-
quized. "Had to hoof it or trust to
the cabby to get out for beat in
those days. I cannot see how there
can be any improvement in the pres
ent-day method of collecting news"
Take it from "Marse" Henry, the
best way into the editorial chair is
by way Of the 4ocap room. The
best editors are those who have come
up from the ranks Of "cub" report
ers sparring for scoops"
"Give me the Cub every time"
he said, "rather than the long-haired
intellectual when it comes to making
editors. I'd much rather have the
district reporter than the highbrow
from college hill if / were molding an
embryo editor"
Watterson came up from the local
room. As a lad he was educated at
the Episcopal Academy in Phila-
he gained his first editorial
as editor Of his school
paper. They badly bent their by
laws to continue him in office.
After school. as lad Of seventeen

years he went TO MacMinnville,
Tenn, and there started in journal
ism as founder, publisher and editor
Of. weekly newspaper. But he was
not for small-town stuff, and at
eighteen years Of age sold his coun-
try newspaper and set forth for New
York to embark upon the remarkable
career that carried him to the edi-
torship of the Louisville (Ky.) Cour-
ier-Journal and the title Of "The
Greatest Editor the South Ever Pro-
duced."
'T was born next door to a print
shop and grew up in a newspaper Of
fice," is the Colonel's proud boast.
First and last, I have filled every
newspaper function, from galley boy
TO leader writer. I am proud Of my
calling and jealous Of its own good
name."
In memories now the Colonel lives
again "the good old days." declar-
ing he was never so happy as when
IN the early morning hours, with. boys
scurrying to and fro, wires flashing
in their news, he was hurrying up
the edition.
mo game like it in all the world"
ne says. "a high calling-no man
can attain higher sphere Of use
fulness-but withal good sport, life,
adventure, color, travel tempera-
ment and all that.
"Some people think of it as
strenuous game in which a man
wears out before his time. Well, I'm
still here and eighty years old. Just
got out Of the saddle recently. On
the point of longevity the newspa-
perman may live as long as any
other, provided he takes care Of
himself"
Colonel Watterson complains they
are not making great editors nova
days, like they used to. He says
there are no Greeleys, no Danes, no
Bowies, Medills and Halsteads, like
there were in the old days when an
editor could speak for whole Sec
ton of the country, and whose opin-
ions could help shape party plat
forms. He deplores the passing of
"individualism" in this respect.
While airing his own personal
views in the matter the Colonel took
occasion to say that eff I had my
way I would abolish the average ed
itorial page, for it is nothing but
flapdoodle." He says the people are
thinking for themselves today.
But when it comes to the straight
news the modern journal is mar
vel of twentieth century perfection.
He thinks "you have to hand it to the
boys, for they are getting out the
news" which, from his point Of view,
is the prime function Of a newspa-
