was made that such a hand would be

directed by the editor, prepared by any Of
sAis writers, or received In any of his news
reports. That part is the advertising col
umns. In these, could the editor view the
reception Of the paper, he would find that
-0ehers-the advertiSers-were supple
menting his labors by providing for tastes
and needs outside his province.
Il really is not fanciful TO say that IN
these advertisers the paper has acquired a
number of new department editors. Each
one presents the subject he best under
stands-the offerings Of his own business.
Such editors have the largest possible
motive 20 make their announcements In
tercsting, for their own money is at stake
n each issue. But even more than this,
heir reputation as well as that Of the
paper itself, is at stake.
When an advertiser resorts to misrepre-
sentation of his goods or services he re
aects not only upon the integrity of tho
paper which contains his advertising but
Vhakcs the confidence of the public in the
announcements of his fellow-advertsers
L is for this reason that responsible pub
SShers and advertisers alike are todal

osae great public movement which has 70
