PASS 1T ALONG

The newspaper man is blamed for
a whole lot of things he can't help,
such as using partially in mentioning
visitors, giving news about some folks
and others do not. An editor should
prints all the news he can find. Some
people inform him about such things
and of others to do. An editor should
not be expected to know the names
and residences of all your uncles,
aunts, cousins, even if he should see
them get on or off the train. Tell us
about it; it's news that makes the
newspaper, and every man, woman
and child can be associate editor if
they only will. Never apologize when
you give this bit of information, for
if there lives one so dead that he has
lost his appreciation of such favors
he is dead, indeed, to every virtue
that imparts value to a paper.-Blen-
zoni (Miss.) Banner.

heard a loud noise. but thought it
was railroad cars coming together on
a nearby track.
Company officials believed the safe
was blown by amateurs, because four
large holes were drilled around the
combination, whereas professionals
would have used one; the safe was
nol covered and the explosive was so
powerful that it blew the four-foot
