JUST AMONG OURSELVES

~
A good many magazines and
newspapers maintain column OF
personal chat with their readers
The idea is not without consider.
able merit, though it is not posi-
BILE to indulgesin much of that sort
of thing in a country newspaper.
At times however, it seems to US
helpful to express our point of
view
A country newspaper then, such
as the Pioneer-Review, is establish
ed and maintained to print the
local news and such local comment
as may be interesting. It must
leave to metropolitan dailies very
largely the task of publishing and
commenting upon matters of state
wide or national interest. The To-
cal newspaper is a purveyor of lo-
cal news. Just SO far as it fails in
that, it fails in it's true mission.
And that news and such COM
ment as accompanies it must be
set forth in interesting fashion.
People must read a newspaper, or
it is no sort of success. If the
paper is fairly decent and reason
ably just, it makes no great diff
ference if it hurts the feelings of
some folks or shocks them. Posi-
bly, they should have their feeling
hurt. Possibly they should be
shocked. There may be no other
way to set them thinking
And that is the policy Of the
Pioneer-Review. We want tile pa
per to be read. 1t doesn't htlrt us
when reader writes a letter, some
times for publication, sometimes
so hot that we couldn't publish
it without violating the postal
laws. But it would hurt us if the
paper dropped each week into the,
local pool, and there was not rip
pie or a bubble to show where it
had gone. That would hurt.
And it doesn't bother us when
folks rise UP in the very path be-
fore us to tell us of our defects
and shortcomings The paper has
its faults. We know Of more of
them than our readers have ever
seen. Most Of them grow out of
the fact that the paper is put to-
gether many weeks with haste
that would make the average coun-
try newspaper man dizzy. So the
Pioneer-R Review does not pretend
to be a work of art. Readers who
want that can subscribe for the
Mentor or the Ladies Home Jour
nal.
And we can spell You don't need
to write in to tell us about that.
We know we can spell better than
most Of you, Judging from the let
ters you write us. But we must
say that this linograph machine of
ours coughs up some spelling at
times that makes us profane. The
thing seems to have no sense at
all. Then, although the tall, good
natured gentleman who happens to
be the editor, chases these errors
UP and down the column with a
sharp pencil, stabbing at them
here and there, they sometimes
evade him. But they stick out like
all over the page when the
paper is printed. They make US
fearful, and we tear our hair. And
it doesn't help much to write us
about them.

FEAR EXTINCTION OF HOLLY
6otanists Say That Within Another
Generation It May Be as Rare as
the Mstletoe.

Christmas holly, that merriest and
most beloved of all growing bushes, is
threatened with extinction, according
to warning sounded by lovers of
red Christmas. Once growing pro-
fuSely in southern New Jersey and
Maryland il has been swept from
those states by the ruthless cutters
for the city markets, and must now
be sought in the swamps of Virginia
and North Carolina, where already the
supply is growing less bountiful each
year. The Gulf states have been sim
ilarIy shorn TO provide holly for New
Orleans, st. Louis and Chicago.
Within another generation, botan-
lists say, holly will be as rare as miStle-
toe, which used to grow in abundance
on the Atlantic seabOard as far north
as Raritan bay, but has now practi-
cally ceased to exist as Christian dec
Grafton. When will the American peo-
pie learn that the bounty of their
fields and woodlands is not imitlessf

Child Labor Barred by

speeie! pispatch OF The Tribune

CHICAGO, June 28.-Judge Lands,
arbitrator in the building trades con-
troversy, to-day obtained the pledge of
employers and workers in the building
trades to bar from the city all material
made by children.
i has been charged shat electrical
workers disassembied all non-union-
made supplies on the pretext that they
were prison made. This was denied by
the business agent of the Electrical
Workers Union, who said most of the
material disassembled had been made
by child labor.
I'VE must arrange some way of COM
batting child labor in Chicago" said
Judge Lands. 81 am interested in such
4 movement and am strong for it. I've
been watching conditions for forty
years, and it is disagreeable comment
on civilization to find child labor still
being used in 1921"
1t is predicted that the elimination
of child labor will result in a quick
rise in the price of electrical supplies,
as most of the electrical wiring used
in Chicago has been done by children.
