THE ELEMENT THAT WINS
Good Preachers Are Not Necessarily
Good Newspaper Men.
"Yours truly,
rs. NJ. Parker"

Good Preachers Are Not Necessarily
Good Newspape Men.
Out in Denver a. novel journalistic
experiment was tried last week when
the Reverend w. Fl. Wray Boyle, a
Presbyterian minister, who had as
pircd to n one-day editorship to show
how n newspaper should be run, was
invited to take charge of an issue of
the Denver Post, says the Columbia
Record.
In the editorial charge, the church
man used his blue pencil unsparin5ly
TO the waste basket rather than to
the composing room went all stories
of a sensational nature. Current news
Of two divorce suits very much be-
fore the public was entirely e!imin-
ated. All news relating to boxing was
banned flom the sporting page. on
which, however, was republished
Casey at the Bat" The front page
was given over to a two-column cdi-
torial on "The Ideals Of an Editor" an
appreciation by DR.. Boyle, who from
his pulrit had severely criticised news
papers for their manner OF display
ing news; and in addition, interviews
with attorneys urging Improvement in
the jury system now prevailing in the
courts, an item relating TO education,
and five short telegraph items sent
out by news associations.
The experiment is not entirely
new one. 1t has beep tried before,
and always with substantially the
same result as in Denver. Through it
the fact has again been demonstrated
that. while the chiIrChman may know
q great deal about running church,
he knows very little about how u
newspaper should be run. Perhaps
this is large1y-due to"thc fact that in
the ruipit there is not that appreclt-
lion of human nature which must en-
ter into the making Of every success
ful newspaper.
The newspaper is the most human
Of agencies. 1t is too intensely hui
man to profess to be anything ap-
preaching perfection. 1t is not to be
ccnSured for truly reflection condi-
tions as they are and as they may
be shown TO exist through record
ing the news OF the day. AS some
critics Of the press fail to realize. the
newspaper dnes not make the news:
il merely records it after IL is made
by human beings. Perhaps it may
not always he pleasant news to re-
late. News values, however, arc not
determined in this manner. but ac-
cording tu human interest. Therefore
the newspaper finds millions OF read
ers, while in pulpitS, where this ele-
mont is lacking, sermons arc often
preached to half empty churches.

Funds raised by the American Le-
gion to decorate the graves Of all
American soldiers buried in Europe
have reached $4,000, and are expect
ed to exceed $4,000 before May 80,
according to Legion national head
quarters. The legion has pledged that
not one of the American graves will
he neglected.
In response to an appeal for ten
cents from every legion member, II
departments have exceeded the
amount asked for the decoration fund.
Florida was the first state to fill its
quota. New Hampshire has tripled
it's allotted sum, while Connecticut and
Louisiana have almost doubled their
stipulated -amounts. Other depart
ments which are leading in subscrip-
tions are Arizona, the Canal Zone,
Cuba. Kansas, Kentucky. South Dako-
tn and Wyoming Ohio has contrihut-
ell it's full quota OF Sa,564.00 the larg-
est amount received from any one

ter received at national headquarters

Reid Reelected.


Announcement was made this morn
ing that w. S. Reid, for the past year
superintendent Of the Glover High
school had been reelected. There has
been no formal election Of other mem
bers of the faculty. These will be
selected by the trustees later on upon
the advice of Prof. Reid.
Despite the fact that both teachers
and pupils have labored under con-
gested housing conditions during the
year just closed, it is considered gen.
orally that the year just past has been
a most successful one from a scholastic
standpoint. Enrolment was largerathan
ever before perhaps. A live school i'm
provement association was organized
and operated during the year and a
spirit of cooperation and earnestness
greater than ever before prevailing
characterized the school. The new
high school building, funds for the
building of which were provided in a
$4,000 bond issue some time ago will
be ready for occupancy before the
work of the 1922 term entered
upon in September.
Dollar Day Tomorrow.

Farrar's Clothes.
York county people and there wnrc
quite Il few, who attended the recent
musical festival in SpartanhurE, were
no doubt more or less attracted by the
gown worn by Geraldine Farrar, well
known artist. Miss Farrar who never
did believe in dolling herself up with
Il whole lot Of clothes was barer than
usual at Spartanburg. and it is said
| that she actually shocked some Of the
hundreds Of people from over the state
who heard her sing. Anyway Rev. DIR.
\. d. F. GilmQur who is pastor of the
First Presbyterian church over there
thought it was up to him to say some
thing in his sermon last Sunday about
Gera .dinc's layout and according TO Il

what he said:

Chaplain Frazier read the scripture

great audience lifted it's voice in

That completed the ceremonies for
that part and the coffin was next
borne from the apse and taken to the

president and Mrs. Harding, and the
other distinguished guests and Off

President Harding had stood and
joined in the singing with every show
Of strong emotion and beside him Mrs.
Harding wept as she sang. Often she

AS the slow, wonderfully solemn

COUNTY AGENTS GIVE VIEWS
ON FARMING CONDITIONS

Helena, Nov. 1O.-The morale of
Montana farmers is about as low as
it has ever been in the states history,
according to questionnaires received
from county agents in II Montana
counties by the department of agri-
culture, labor and industry. The fl
nancial condition Of Montana farmers
is bad and in most instances is worse
than it was a year ago. Their cour-
age, however, is better than the state
of their finances. Where the financial
condition Of farmers in one county is
reported good, and fair in two others,
in IA counties it is reported as "broke,"
"bad," or "critical." In twelve coun-
ties farmers are reported to be in
worse financial shape than a year
ago, in two their condition the same,
and in two other counties their con-
dition is better than a year ago. Coun-
ty agents were asked to state the
prevailing frame Of mind of farm
ers. This was reported as pessimistic
in nine counties and hopeful in seven
others.
Grounds Of dissatisfaction held by
the farmers are against the district
in II counties. In nine replies dissat-
isfaction with farming generally was
expressed, chiefly because of economic
reasons. Listed among these nine
are some counties where dissatisfac-
ton was also harbored against the

headed by Major General Hartford and
Admiral Rodman, who lowered it ten

The last wreaths were placed by war
mothers. Mrs. Emmit Digney laid in
place the token of American mothers
whose n died in the war; for Brit
ish mothers, Mrs. Julia McCudden
placed the treasured English flowers
she brought all the way to lay at the
bier.
The Indian chief Plenty Coos, in the
splendor of his tribal custome, laid
down his coup stick and the war bonnet
from his head, on the tomb.
A crashing salute of artillery rang
out. Three rolling, thunderous blasts
sounded while the long lines of troops
stood at present arms"
Then taps the soldiers requiem,
sounded to be followed by a quick roar
of 81 guns, the national salute.
Americas hero was at rest forever
in his majestic shrine among the quiet
hills.
He lies unknown, but not unhonored
nor unsung.
