Graham Bell filed in the u. S. pat

day, but later, Prof. Elisha Gray of
Chicago filed a caveat in the same

notice would have protected him
until he perfected his invention, IF
he had filed it few hours earlier.
Had he done so, he would, in all

lining only their own convictions.
In a few cases they come from
downright scoundrels who long ago
tried their talents in journalism and
found them wanting.
Not all the doubtful glory for this
malicious campaign can be heaped
upon the politicians. The army of
press baiters still embraces an
abundance of self-appointed reform
ers, club leaders, savers OF civiliza-
ton, and ranters par excellence
And most of you who visit your
schools and colleges only on home
coming, or less often, would be
amazed at the prevalence of NAL
impressions about the press which
are believed-and taught--in these
Institutions.
A newspaperman seldom disputes
the professor of English, or political
science, or religion, or anthropolo-
Ky when the academic gentleman is
sticking to his last But let the
conversation swing to newspapers
and in five minutes these colleagues
from fields foreign and afar will tell
you exactly how newspapers should
be run. It is utterly inconseQuen-
tial that none of them has spent
day in the practice of journalism,
for the nature of the published print
makes it common carcass for the
butchers at the academic table.
In more than 20 years of expert
ence in several branches of jour-
nalism the exhilarating experience
of being bribed by an advertiser
never came my way, and there were
times when an impending payroll
might have made tainted money
look like mama from heaven. The
truth is. as every newspaperman
knows, that advertisers spend their
own money to sell merchandise. not
to try to buy editorials. The fur
Their truth is that the resounding
clatter as the last advertiser who
tried it fell downstairs was heard
in the far corners of the trade area.
Completely aside from the ethics in
volved, such a proposition would be
the sheerest foolishness from a bus
mess standpoint.
BY and large-and we make no
apologies for the scoundrels in our
midst-the men who make news
papers in America will compare ia
vorably with the leaders in educa-
ton, science, business, industry, law,
medicine, and religion. You may Sc

What Other Editors Have
To Say
HOW ABOUT ACTION, MR..
ROOSEVELT?
Dawson County Review

dawson IOunty REVIEW -,
We feel that President Roosevelt's
foreign policy is right.
America must speed up to the
limit and become great arsenal.
We must give aid to Britain and
do our utmost to see that Britain
does not go down. The democ-
racies will triumph eventually be-
cause our cause is essentially right
and the masses of the peoples ev-
erywhere outside of Germany rec
ognize the fact but it is going
to require utmost exertions.
The alternative to smashing Hit
Ter is another Dark Age over the
wOrld-a period of universal des-
potism and dictatorship.
The presidents two addresses on
our foreign policy hit the bell all
over the world.
But as usual with him fine words
come easy but fine actions are
something else again. Mrs. Roose-
welt complained bitterly because
many members of congress did not
applaud the presidents address to
congress. Well, several congressman
told her in unvarnished language
that the reason they did not APP
plaud was because they did not
trust him.
The reason they don't trust him is
because Of many of his actions that
do not square with his words and
promises.
In the present case, for instance,
his words are 100 per cent right yet
how about his actions?
He still refuses to make any one
chief of production. His latest is
to name KnudSon and Hilfman as
joint chiefs Of the war board which
is to have authority to produce mu-
nitions, ships, guns and everything
needed in the gigantic conflict.
The country has full confidence
in Knudson and would cheer loudly
if he were named supreme chief but
Hillman is labor politician and a
c. l. O. leader at that. Nobody ex-
cept the radicals has any confidence
in him.
And SO the inexcusable break
down in production of airplanes,
guns. tanks, etc. is likely to con-
tinue. All the experience of man.
kind in all ages shows that there
must be one boss in any big enter
prise If real efficiency is to be OBJ
tanned. Until we have one boss of
war production we shall not see our
war industries get into high gear
And how about Ickes, Perkins
and innumerable other pinks, reds
and radicals in high places? How
about sending Hopkins to London
as personal representative of the
president instead of a trained and
competent ambassador
The country wants to 60 along
with the president-but how can
it when he insists upon such men
in high places and such foolish
policies?

 Maybe mother or father can't do this with Johnny, but some one else who is rather new to Johnny can, l am sure, get Johnny interested in Q sporting proposition.

 Probably castor oil and cod liver oil are to blame for most of the an- tipathies of children toward taking medicine. It is my earnest belief that there is never real need or justification for giving any child caster oil in any form. As for cod liver oil, there are three rational excuses for giving 1t to a child, namely, for the sunshine vitamin D, the natural vitamin A and the iodine in this or any other fish liver oil. Today each of these may be had in purse, accurately measured form, tasteless or not repugnant to anyone, even so good that many children beg for more. After all there is no remedial virtue in mere nauseouS or evil taste. Finally, the use of fish liver oil is a hold-over from the days of empiric medicine, and 1t Is absurd to attempt to sur- round 1t with pseudo-soientific ho- kun1. On the other hand the use of the three constituents, vitamin D, vitamin A and iodine, is as scien- tifc as any principle Of modern medicine.

We quote you so often at our house, writes 6 reader that tonight our six-year-old son asked: "What does Dr. Brady say about spank ings for boys? Does he say 1t makes them grow2" What you said about letting children eat what they like and having no comments on their likes or dislikes at table, prompts me to ask how we can get this Six~ year-old to take medicine -espec- ially tablets. We have to crush them and give them in water, but he has always refused to swallow tablets or pills since he was old enough to know. GA. c. D.
 Some children of Shat age or younger would not drink milk. Their parents tried all sorts of n1odifi- cations and fiavorings, but the youngsters wouldn't have any of 1t.
