president Harding has been
the most photographed man in the
world today and this Is undoubtedly
true. II there were no other rea-
sons, this fact alone would prove
the bigness of the man."
President Harding Is. first Of all.
q newspaper man and for this rea-
son has more patience and a deeper
understanding of the necessity Of
frequent photographs of our Chief
Executive. He realizes that every

ity, willingness and promptness to

perhaps it would make my point
clear to ask the average man who
seemingly breads to have one pic

how he would enjoy facing twenty
five to thirty cameras at one time
to grant the requess of almost every

eras and at the same time to chat

to register a natural. normal att-

REGISTERS WELL.
Prom q technical standpoint,
President Harding registers well

TEACHING HISTORY

We have learned more about the
world in the last few years than we
ever learned in fifty years before. And
simply because there was world war
on, and to keep posted on it we had to
read the newspapers.
The war served to prove that for
teaching history newspapers have no
equal. So, since we have learned this,
why wouldn't it be good idea for our
teachers to cash in on the information
and encourage the boys and girls to
read the papers more than they do?
In many communities school chill
dren are being asked each morning to
give current event"-to tell of
something new that is going on in the
world. To get this they must read
the papers, or at least read enough to
enable them to give at least one cur
rent event. Possibly some of the
teachers here are doing that now; we
don't know. If not, it's good time
to start

YOUR TOWN

Nowadays before salesman is
placed on the road by any of our lar
ger concerns they are given course
in craftsmanship. They are first made
acquainted with the article they are
to sell; they are given its talking
points, or made to see its worth and
value to the consumer, and then they
are allotted their territory.
Selling town is pretty much like
selling goods. You must know first
of all the advantages of your town;
you must be able to tell the outside
world what it has in the way of ad-
vantages, and then you must dwell on
those talking points. Your territory
is large, for any place in the world
you go you can spend few minutes
selling your town"-when means
nothing else but boosting it.
The citizens of Julcsburg should
learn the great advantage to be de-
rived from being able to point out the
here, of telling others exactly why
home elsewhere. The man who can
talk up his town, and who does talk
up his town is always admired. no
matter in what part of the country he
may be or in what company he is
thrown. Home town pride is the first
indication of good citizenship, and the
people who hear you reciting the mer-
its of the place in which you live ma
turally take it that all the other citi-
zens are doing the same thing, and
that it is a good place in which to live
or in which to do business.
Start out now to "sell your town"
wherever you go. Boost for Jules
burg, learn it's advantages; learn to
tell about your town in an interesting
way, and edge right in at every op-
portunity and tell about the advan-
tages offered here.

his antics as they once did. For al
ways they must look beyond the pic.
ture to jail cell and the awful charge
of murder.
1t has cost Fatty" Arbuckle his
fame. but it has been worth millions
Of dollars to our boys and girls il
they can be made to see the moral. If
they can be made to understand that
to win fame, and especially to hold
it, you must be clean in both mind and
body, and able to face those who are
with record that is unstained. 1t
should teach them that you can't live
one life privately and another pub
licly and hope forever to deceive the
public.

him the news, even though you ma,
not be especially interested in it. Soml
folks never think to give US news ex
cept when they are concerned in it one
| way or another.
Second, don't give him . piece Of
news and tell him you want it print
ed just rs it is written. There's 4
right and q wrong way to do ever
such q simple thing as writing an ar.
ticle for country paper. We know
of one editor who had to leave towr
because he printed every piece OF
news just as 1t WAS handed in-spell.
ing, punctuation and all-and print.
ed it with the name of the person
who gave it to him.
Third, don't try to play Joke
through the paper unless you explain
it to the editor. A thing in cold type
looks lot different and sounds diff
ferent from thing repeated by word
or mouth, when the voice, facial ex.
PRECISION and gesture, perhaps, helps
to show its meaning.
Fourth, don't worry for fear the ed
itor is making too much money; you
should want him to be prosperous. He
can and will give you better paper,
He will be less likely to have to com
promise with his conscience over GER
tain kinds of advertising. And, any,
how, he can't make big fortune out
of his paper-he will be lucky if he
keeps going.
Fifth, be ready to tell the editor
when something in the paper pleases
you. Once in while you tell YOUR
preacher he has good sermon, so
tell the editor something about his
paper.
Sixth, get your copy" to him ear
ly. Take it to him for the next week
the day after the previous publica-
ton, if you can. 1t take time to set
type and make a paper. Did you ever
wonder what the editor did all the
time between publication days? You
would know if you were publishing
newspaper yourself.
Lastly, come in some day when the
paper is being printed. Come in sew
eral times during the day, and YOU
will have more of realization of
what job it is to make weekly
per.

A VALUABLE LESSON

We feel sorry for the Julesburg
boys and girls who are forced to lose
a popular idol through the recent es-
capade in San Francisco in which
Fatty" Arbuckle figured. For he
was the idol Of every youth who has
had an opportunity to visit the picture
shows. But from all appearances he
can never regain the throne from
which he toppled and, guilty or not
guilty of the awful crime with which
he was charged, the American people
will never again be able to smile at

SEVEN GOOD WAYS

For the benefit of the people of
Julesburg and Sedgwick county who
want to help the editor of the Grit
Advocate and don't know how, we are
herewith submitting the following
seven good ways:
First of all, give him the news; he
wants it. Give it to him, even though
something's it does not get into the pa.
per. He hasn't time always to tell
you why some pieces of news are no,
used; but ten to one he has perfect
ly good and impersonal reason. Civ,
