(Da wson News.)

The most efficient teachers of today, says E. w.. Howe, veteran Kansas publisher, newspaper re- porters.
 In recent address at Northwestern University the Atchison voiced his belief many of the best educations of this age obtained from newspapers.
 ot the average good newspaper reporter this may be said without exaggeraton:
 His viewpoint is essentially broad
 His Judgment is impartial and free from per sonal prejudice.
 He is, because of the character of his work better informed on matters of general interest than is the average business or professional man.
 His knowledge of human nature and his ability to judge men and women surpass that of any other person.
 The experienced newspaper reporter may and probably does, become somewhat skeptcal At times he may even be accused of syncism but he is never a peseimist.
 The newspaper reporter is necessarily honest lie IS essentially wholesome in his thoughts and ac- tions. He hears and sees with discrimination and he writes without exaggeration
 He keeps faith with his newspaper with the puh lie and with himself.

One of the bases of the attack that

field interests bought the Seaboard
holdings from the holding company
they were assured that the unity that
had existed would continue between

Company and the Clinchfield road.
No written agreement was made. 1t
