pay more regard to editorials than do those of the
newer States and are more interested in following

sports" Society" is supposed to be consecrated
to the women but what women today really most
want under the new dispensation, is vexng and
as yet unsettled problem. Next to sports, the
financial department is most widely and closely
read, and so on.
But no review of American newspapers more
than scratches the field, which does not take into
account that distinctly American product, the coun-
try weekly. After all is said, they combined have
more influence on American opinion, do more to
shape and FIX it, than any other one agency. They
have peculiarly intimate relation to their chenille;
they all go to the home; they are closely and in
telligently read. and as the most stable influence
politically is the farm the most important factor
in this stability is the country weekly newspaper.
