There is bigger and better work
for him to do. He must become a
business executive whose field is
the commercial development of his
section through broader relations
with the country at large. He must
be out and fighting for his COM
munity's share of the distribution
of patronage by the large adver-
tiser. His sanctum must become
headquarters of commerce.
In this new and necessary role
the editor will really be doing some
thing of big worth. He can not
lose, for though first fondness be
for the producing of newspaper,
he will find that his paper VIII
prosper and grow. Indeed, in these
DAYS, it can grow in no other way.

Historical Pageant at
Richmond Theatre

The famous Richmond Historical
Pageant has already passed into his
tory. Our own Richmond Theatre,
hitter prolonged negotiation and at
much expense, has succeeded in OBJ
tanning the films of the pageant, and
will show them tonight and TO-
morrow. This is one of the great
est events that has ever taken place
in Virginia, and for accuracy and
faithful portrayal of costume and
custom. and life-like reproduction OF
historic happening, has never been
excelIed anywhere. A bird's-eye view
of the history of the commonwealth
from earliest times to the present
dav is thus presented and its enter
tanning and instructive value cannot
be overestimated. Every Alexandrlan
should see this marvellous screen
production. Not pupil of any school
hut will carry away unforgettable
memories of the history of his state.
IF all instruction could be thus rend-
cred by the silver screen, how delight
full would be the years of childhood.
The demand everywhere is so over
whelming for this film that it could
only be obtained for two days in Alex
andria. The opportunity should not be

opment OF an immortal soul. And
the beauty of the Divine Plan IS,
that once our hearts and minds
are open to it, we find it a sover-
eign balm for all the ills that flesh
is heir to.
But to get back to politics, we
believe that it is by far better and
more practical to reform party
that is going astray, from within,
and not attempt to delnolish it Ut
terly from the outside. AT any
rate. it is the easier task. Labor
can certainly leaven the two great
parties that now dominate our po-
litical life. And while ii may
sound partisan note where not
intended, we are none the less
firm in our belief that the Demo
cratic Party today is nearer the
great heart OF the working-clasSes
than its adversary.
We welcome, therefore, the adj
vice OF the American Federation
Of Labor to its constituency, that
they take active part in politics,
1t will make both parties take heed
TO themselves and result in a pro-
founder study of the public veal
by public servants, and in a great
er care and caution in the franz
ing and carrying-out OF legisla-
ton.

The Editor in q New Role

For generations the editor OF the
smaller newspaper has held an hon
orable position in his community
which, while it was an estate when
was respected and honored, was
also one of no great commercial
importance nor productive weight
Considered aesthetically, the edi-
tor held a fairly nigh and secure
situation. He it was who was call
ed upon to indite and sometimes
even deliver the more sentimental
expressions at public affairs OF the
community; his learning ana coun-
sci often were sought; he was eS-
teemed as a writer, which quallty
often suggests something OF awe
to the less lettered.
Yet, as a business factor, or as
figure in the marts, his activities
were considered limited to the state
of being merely scribe who wrote
of the achievements of others. In
short, he was a likeable chap, worth
cultivating; learned but limited; an
aid and advisor, but not a doer OF
big things.
That was the average editor con-
sidered in the past tense. The alert
editor of today has learned, or soon
should learn, that his paper is the
logical center of development of its
community. In civic or commercial
affairs, the local newspaper should
be the most potent influence IN
propress and building. 1t should
serve the purpose of chamber of
commerce, publicity bureau, boost
err club" and merchandising depart
ment for the entire community 1t
represents.
There are many ways in which
these things may be accomplished.
Some of them are told elsewhere in
this issue, in an interview with the
publisher of the Daily Gazette, of
GAINESVILLE, Wis. This publisher
tells how he has made his paper a
commercial institution" devoting
effort toward wide publicity for the
represented district and giving
broad cooperation to national adver-
tisers who come to this market.
Beside this, the complete aid of
the paper Is given TO local mer-
chants in helping them build their
business. From just newspaper,
this has become d merchandising
bureau and incidentally, the result
ant growth of the community is
reflected in the development of the
paper.
The successful editor of today
must be business man. He can
no longer be content 10 sit in his Of
flee writing the news of the COM
munity or pouring out his heart in
an editorial having 10 do with the
activities of the state assemblymen.

Mrs. Cardwell who had held the
office long time, to give the place
to Major Kimberly. Many patrons
of the Office were in favor Of al
lowing the widow of the former
army officer to retain the place.
The republicans took the position
that it was political office, and
that neither Mrs. Cardwell nor her
late husband had been residents of
Virginia, and that she should give
up the office for an active republi-
can party man. Kimberly is the re-
publican leader of that vicinity.

OUR AMERICAN FEDERATION
OF LABOR

We say our American red
Grafton OF Labor, because we be-
lieye it is, essentially, OF, by, and
for the people. We know OF no
institution today that is more VT
ally American in its organization
and makeup. We have hereto
fore in our editorial columns
called it the main bulwark in these
United States against the evils OF
socialism and SoyietiSm. We are
rejoiced to have our words con-
firmed with decisive significance
by the overwhelming defeat in the
annual convention OF that body
last week, of a resolution for rec
IGNITION OF the Russian BolShevlSt
Government. No one except ne
be on the inside, perhaps, IS aware
of the insidiouS, inceSSant, and
brazen attempts that have been
made each year, for more than
twenty years past, by the anarch-
lists OF this country, to capture the
American Federation OF Labor.
Few know OF the unceasing vigil
ance and tireless bravery with
which these have been fought by
the decent elements OF labor IN the
organization, led by that sturdy
and genuine patriot, Sam Com
persl We should indeed be
proud OF this most magnificent
body of working men that the
world has ever seen. Their solid
arity, their conservation their
love for country, have never been
could not be-eXcelledl While
we do not feel ourselves i'll accord
with all their tenetS OF belet-yet
we are firmly convinced that time
will bring their membership and
the rest of the nation into common
agreement on the fundamental
principles OF political doctrine.
We have advocated Tor many
years the active participation OF
working men in the politics OF the
day. Every American citizen IS
theoretically a sovereign III his
own right; he becomes practically
so, when he exercises his electoral
franchise. We thoroughly ap-
prove, therefore, OF the stand TAX
en- by the Federation at its conyen-
ton, Just held, in recommending
that all union men and women be-
come active in the precinct, county,
state, and national conventions OF
the two major parties. We are
not partial to third parties; and
we would certainly deprecate the
attempt to form a labor party.
Every true American is laborer.
Most OF us are only too happy to
call ourselves laborerS in the work
shop of that Master who was
Himself a carpenter, and whose
disciples were chosen from the
ranks OF manual labor. All OF us
who amount to anything at all in
this life are workers. Further
more. we grudge not the hours o.
our labor. Those who work the
hardest and the longest are those
who achieve the successes OF life.
The clock-watchers get nowhere
and don't deserve that they should.
In certain vocationS, OF course,
this cannot be followed 100 literal
". But in these latter, relaxation
should be found in other work
that is both educative and congen-
ial. 1t may seem harsh doctrlne.
but we are not put here for Pur-
poses of pleasure. We are put
here for the discipline and deveI-

For some it is Napoleon in his cooked

For still more il is the Bnis and the
