PROF. CONSTANT LeRONG
Who Knows Less About More
Things Than Any Man or Earth
Explains: Newspapers

Maybe you've often wondered how
a newspaper gets all the news as
soon as 1t happens.
Or even before it happens.
There's really nothing to it, as a
visit to any newspaper office will
show. All they have is a man known
as the "City Editor" and a Staff.
The Staff is just a bunch Of young
men who sit aapund and chew gum
or smoke cigarettes or match pen
MES.
The City Editor is a mind reader,
a crystalgazer and a slave driver.
He seldom eats, he never sleeps. He
never speaks to the staff-he barks
at them.
And the staff never speaks to him,
They don't have to-when they
come around and stand before him,
the knocking OF their knees and the
rattle Of their teeth do all the talk
ing necessary.
Well, In his minds eye-the City
Editor sees a fire just about to hap
pen at such and such an address.
He gets his star fire reporter and
rushes him out. The star fire re
porter knows his editor has never
failed him, and wastes no time In
getting there and starting to ask
questions.
He usually has all the W be
fore the alarm has been turned In
When the fire department arrives
they find the Fire Extra still wet
from the press, already on hand tc
give them the whole story.
Maybe the City Editor decides his
readers would like a first class bank
robbery.
He calls up all the regular Bank
Robbers in town, and asks If they
have anything on.
II he receives a favorable report
he rushes the whole staff to the
place in ample time.
He even sends photographers and
two men to carry the huge "X' tC
mark the spot.
When the Bank Robber arrives, he
finds the last edition waiting FOL
him, with full directions.
That's the whole secret Of news
papering.
Know what's going TO happen ant
happen to be there first.
J It's as simple as that.

DANGEROUS DRUGS, NO. 2

Dinitrophenal not only decreases
the weight by raising the temper
allure. 1t causes sweating, a sense Of
well being and mental brightness"
Is it any wonder that people who are
too fat turn so readily to this much
heralded drug and take 1t to relieve
them Of unwanted flesh, without a
thought Of the possible harm they
might do to themselves?
These same people would not
think OF embarking upon an ocean
going steamer and starting across
the briny deep, If they knew that
there was no captain Or pilot on
board; and yet they will cheerfully
swallow any drug or concoction
that IS advertised to be good for
what ails them
Dinitrophenol is a high explosive,
and 1t has proved itself to be a very
dangerous n to the selfmedicators
who in blind faith swallowed 1t 80
willingly, believing that at last they
have found the ideal way to reduce
without any self-denial. Now listen
to the truth. Dinitrophenal has
caused some deaths, and others
while taking 1t have had most dis
tressing and dangerous symptoms.
Any ailment from which the patient
is suffering will be greatly aggravat-
ed by the taking OF this drug. Other
symptoms are hives, violent itching,
abdominal distress and Indigestion.
In the Literary Digest for Novem-
Der under the heading Medical Ex-
perts Seek Cause Of New Disease"
called granulocy topenia, Is a very
interesting statement. 1.-The disease
which is often fatal, is associated
with a marked decrease in white
blood cells. 1t thus resembles per-
nlcious anemia, except that in an

are lacking. Evidence that 1t may
be due to the increased use Of GER

OF the very small counties.
The necessary abandonment O

seat.
Then there would be considerable
losses due to the decline OF county
seat towns which lost their authority
and prestige. OF course this wout
not show in the government cost
sheets but nevertheless 1t would be
real loss to the people at large.
On the whole we doubt II there
would be very much financial saving
effected and we are sure there would
be much inconvenience and trouble.
The recent Helena conference air
ed a lot Of things about taxes and
government expenses.
The most discussed and cussed
proposal was the suggested refer
endum that the next Legislature will
be asked to pass cutting our counties
from the present IS to %. Before
we go further we will say that It win
not pass so our smaller counties need
not worry themselves gray about 1t.
theoretically it has many things
In its favor. 1t would cut govern
ment expenses In some degree but
nevertheless 1t met with nothing but
bitter opposition. We discussed this
proposal at some length last week
and showed that In our opinion Its
benefits would be problematical at
best.
The temper Of the Helena gather
ing showed that it will never pass.
The time to have brought up all
these points was rs years ago before
our counties were all carved up.
They cannot be sewed together again
at this late date. The people are
jealous Of their tax dollars and COM
plain bitterly about high taxes but
they are still nor Jealous OF their
established government units and
their voice In the legislature.
