Need for Hurry.

The two great chess players had sat
facing each other for long, long time.
Neither had spoken or shown any in
clination to move. At last one raised
his head and half-opened his dreamy
eyes.
"What time Is itT" he asked.
The others hand went to his pocket.
He withdrew his cigarette case.
Thursday" he answered.
His opponent yawned.
II hope we shall be able to finish
this game" he drawled, 'but we shall
have to hurry up. I've promised q
70 away next Tuesday week"

BUILDING A NEWSPAPER
LIKE BUILDING CHARACTER

Character is not formed in q few
days. but it requires years to build a
character that will stand the test
and win the confidence of all.
And SO it is with newspaper. 1t
is not matter OF a few days, a few
months or few years, but of many
years. AS Hon. Guy u. Hardy, past
president Of the National Editorial
Association, says:
IA newspaper cannot be built up
in year. Like mans life it is q
matter nf slow growth and develop
ment. Look over your exchanges
and you. will find all the successful
ones-the leading papers in every
town-have long been run under one
management. 1t is so the world
over. Money alone can no more Gre
ate Il newspaper than it can sudden
ly get for man a new character"
What Mr.. Hardy says is true, and
furthermore neither will politics
maintain paper. 1t is all right for
a paper to take an interest in politi-
cal matters, but when the sole pur-
pose Of u paper is to further the po-
litical aspirations OF some meindividual,
then it is that people are dubious of
1t. Politics is a tickle thing. and no
paper can always be on the right,
the winning side or the popular side.
The popular side or the winning side
Is not always the right side by any
means, anyway, and paper that
will support a political side, regard.
ess OF right, cannot command the
the confidence of the people as a
whole.
1t takes time to build character,
but 1T does not take long to lose it.
One mlsstep will tear down what 1t
has taken years to establish. And
80 1T is with the newspaper A news
paper that has worked for years to
establish character and reputation
can lose it's reputation in little
while by doing some questionable
thing, OF course people sometimes
form a wrong opinion about a pa.
paper, just as they do about man,
because OF obtaining wrong infor.
nation as regards 1t, but when the
editor does something that HE
knows is questionable. then 1T is that
his character is injured and the repu.
tation OF his paper Is impaired.
A newspaper which deserves the
confidence and respect OF the people,
must be as particular In guarding
Its course as an individual Is In
maintaining his character.

position. The county board is de-

becomes null and void after June 80.

quired by the County Board Of
NEducation to be raised by county
taxation
The powers and remedies for the
collection OF such taxes are vested in

II was learned yesterday that sew

in their respective districts, over
$4,000 school taxes being still out

two other districts, according to
figures obtained from the County
Comptrollers' office. there are
amounts approximately over $4,000
fand $4,000 outstanding.
