NEWSPAPER A "BIG BROTHER"
 TO THE PUBLIC

Commenting on "The Newspaper and It's Re- lation To the Public,' the Florida Metropolis says, "There is class that thinks it is the duty of the newspaper to print everything that is submitted, because it would please me and my son, John This class forgets the news papers chief source of revenue is it's space, and that printed matter that does not carry general interest with it is deadweight expense to the paper. Aside from the actaul value of space, there is the cost of composition, which is by no means negligible one, for the mere me- chanical expense of publishing a newspaper draws heavily upon revenues
 Few people realize the varied services news papers are called upon to perform for indvid- uals and the general public. In large news paper offices there is steady stream of callers, day in and day out, every one of them with an "ax to grind'' Every "cause" that has any claims whatever to merit must be given free publicity. Even the mere notorety hunter frequently gets more than his share of space.
 To all of these claims newspaper workers give respectful hearing, and no legitimate re- quest is refused. But this generosity costs money and time and effort. The misguided per son who thinks newspaper is glad to get anything ''just to fill up" is sadly mistaken. Many columns of news matter are frequently thrown away, which must be paid for, simply because there is no room for it.
 In spite of the unremitting labor news papers do for the public---in philanthropic and civic movements and in countless other ways they are target for endless abuse and unjust criticism. With what snug unction the radical rolls the phrase "capitaistc press" under his tongue! Let newspaper venture to express it's convictions and immediately the cry IS raised that it has been bought"
 No editor expects to please all the people all the time. It cant be done. But if every indi- vidual who has been helped, directly or indirect ly, by newspapers realized the extent of his obligation, they would receive more bouquets and fewer brickbats.

INTERCHANGE OF STUDENTS
 WITH MEXICO

James ". Gerard, former ambassador to Germany, has become interested in promoting the interchange of Mexican and American stu dents. His plan is the result of a visit to Mex ico, where he made study of conditions in that country and came to the conclusion that what it most needs is the practical education which prevails in America.
 The Mexican educational system lays stress on the classics; on literary accomplishments. Neither is education widely diffused. Only five per cent of the population can read and write. MT. Gerard's idea is that the inter- change of students will serve. the twofold pur- pose of teaching us more about the Mexicans and teaching the Mexicans more about us.
 Mexico is vast empire of undevelopcd riches. It is our neighbor. We cannot do the business which we should do int that country un- til Mexico understands us and we understand Mexico. No quicker means of arriving at such an understanding can be well imagined than that which would consist of young Americans being educated in Mexico and young Mexicans being educated in thea United States. These students would create in time a valuable army for carrying on trade between the two nations
 Germany for generations has trained its young men for the special purpose of develop ing trade relations with the Latin-Americas. These young men have gone to Mexico and Cen tral and South America, speaking the tongue of the people and eonversing familiarly with them on the history and traditions of their ancestors. The United States has made so many futile efforts to capture thestrade of the Latin-Amer- icas by other methods that the suggestion of Adr. Gerard is worth trying.

BIG DEMANDS FOR HOMES

'T thinksthat 1922 will be a year of many real estate transfers, states D. R. McDavid, Jr. Already I have observed that the number of deals put through this year is going to be spec tacular. Of course they will not all be big ones, but in my opinion they will be of the smaller kind, residential deals and transfers like that.
 Occasionally you read in the papers where a big deal has just been completed, and one has just occurred recently, but in the main think that the deals will be of modest amount.
 The demand for homes this year is surpris- ingly brisk. It seems that almost everyone has taken the own your own home slogan deeply to heart"

IN HOTEL LOBBIES
 AND ELSEWHERE
PRACTICES BUYING AT HOME

"Road machinery is the only material item which the county has to buy which cannot be purchased at home" said T. S. Page, county purchasing agent, who has returned from a meeting of the Purchasing Agents association, which he has joined in interest of the ''buy at home" campaign.
 "There is no place in the south where road machinery can be bought. We have to go to Chicago and other points north. I cant see why in Birmingham, which has so much steel and iron, firm does not organize to manufac- ture implements for highway work. Every county in the state uses a certain amount of road machinery.
 Birmingham has not even road machin- cry warehouse, which Atlanta and one or two other southern cities possess. We have agents here for such implements, it is true, but Bir- mingham offers a rich field for factory to manufactures the implements used in the con- struction of highways"
