highlights and comments concern

Postmaster X. G.. Carpenter OF
Sidney delivered the first airmail
from the Sidney Postmaster to
Frontier Flight 80 on September
is, 1854, the first commercial
flight landing at the Sidney Air
port. Between 5000 and 1000
pieces of mail, many of which
were first flight overs bearing a
special Sidney memorial iachet
for stamp collectors all over the
United States were in the two
airmail sacks.
The Frontier extension into the
Williston Basin created jobs for so
people, IA pilots, 10 stewardesses
and 26 station agents. 1t was also
NECESSARY to add additional me-
chanics at Billings and additiony
al personnel in the general offices

Carpenters, plumbers and cleo
tricians worked day and night to
complete the terminal building at
the Richland County Airport so
the building could be ready for
the first scheduled flight !.

dations apply to no specific COM
pany but + intended to outline
certain procedures which may
help amatuer authors avoid vic
limitation.
l.. Discuss your writing ambi-
tons with knowledgeable people
locally whom you ear trust, such
as your librarian, the editor OF
your local newspaper, an English
teacher in the school system, your
pastor, etc.
Q. If your believe your literary
merit publication for public con-
sumption, submit them to pub
fishers for consideration, either
directly through a reputable liter
airy agent.
3. If a publisher offers a con-
tract in which he agrees to pay
all the costs of publication and
promotion and to pay the author
a royalty on sales, your chief con-
Germ should be in the financial
stability of the publishing house,
its reputation in the publishing
business, its distribution facilities,
etc.
4. If a publisher asks you to
pay anything OF to buy anything
you should realize that you, either
alone or with others, are bearing
the costs and assuming the risks of
publication and that the publisher
will make his profit from you
rather than from the possible pub
lie sales of a book or song.
5. Don't he fooled by references
to possible royalties from publish
ers who want you to pay. Ask
them to give you the names of Is
or 20 other authors, for checking
purposes, who have paid them to
publish their verse, either in
anthologies or songs, or their
books, and who have received
back in royalties the amount they
paid the publishers, or more.
6. Don't be fooled by f~lattering
forecasts about the importance of
your work and its prospective i'm
pact upon the literary or musical
world, if published at your ex-
pense. Remember, that publishers
who believe that they have mar
ketable material will risk their
money in publishing it, not the
authors.
7. Don't let your vanity get the
better of your judgement Let the
experience of many others help
you to avoid the vanity publishing
racket.

Warning TO
POETS, WRITERS

Amateur authors and poets who
are ambitious to have their works
professionally published were
warned today by Mansel Woods
Manager of the Sidney Chamber
of Commerce to watch out lest
their vanity tempt them into fin
ancing publication of their literary
efforts through the Establishments
Of subsidy publishers.
Citing a current warning from
the National Better Business Bur
eau with which the Chamber is
affiliated through membership, Mr.
Mansel Woods stated:
Although subsidy publishing
can be, and is. an entirely legiti-
mate business when performed for
an authors own private printing
and distribution, it takes on the
nature of a racket when used to
dupe amateur authors into paying
promoters for the publication of
their own literary efforts through
Misrepresentation and flattery.
THE vanity press preys upon
the hopes and dreams of would-be
authors by flattering them into be-
lieving that their attempts at po-
etry, literature, or song writing
merit publication. 1t talks about
sales and royalties so as to imply
that amateur authors may get
their money back - and more
and thereby induces the gullible
to sink their savings in a self
subsidized publishing venture in
a bid for Immortality.
ETC Curbs Vanity Publishers
During the past two years the
Federal Trade Commission has
ordered S vanity publishers to quit
misrepresenting the character of
their business and the services they
perform claims ordered abandoned
r the following:
that none of the books pub
lished by them has resulted in
a failure;
that sales will warrant more
than one edition of a book, or
that their past sales have requir-
ed more than one edition in the
majority of cases;
that they will recommend for
publication only those manuscripts
with the requisite literary merit
and sales appeal.
that they supply their authors
with the same promotion services
that the largest trade book pub
fishers give their big-name best
selling authors;
they have salaried travel
statesmen who devote all their
time in direct selling of only their
books, unless such is the fact;
their books generally are
purchased in large numbers as
a common practice by leading Ii
braries;
their promotion always will
result in placeent of their books
in book stores in the vicinity of
the authors home.
Advice to Amateur Authors
Although it is not the function
Of the Chamber of Commerce to
encourage or discourage writers
and composers, it does seek to
protect the uniformed from pro-
moters who prey upon their gull

School Bid Rejection
Techniques Questioned

Purchasing methods in
volving an order of school
drafting supplies were sharp
ly criticized by one school
board member this week.
AS a result of objections
raised by Robert E. Morrow, the
board as a whole ordered the
school purchasing department to
prepare a full explanation as
to why certain bidders were
chosen to supply specific items.
In many cases, Morrow noted,
the department approved bids
that were far higher than some
of the others submitted.
Morrow conceded that "the
lowest bid isn't always the best
one" but insisted that the board
should be given a full explana-
ton when low bid is rejected.
Lewis Francis, acting purchas-
ing agent, said the recommends.

The system, Carlow said, Is

In other action the council
granted rezoning for GIT Rock

The planning commission,
which recommended denial OF

that commercial coming Of this
property would add to the strip
coming problem on the Pike.
Mayor Alexander j. Greene
held that the land in question
should not be kept residential
without hurting the owner. 'Tt

The council also rezoned prop
critics from 1872 through 842
Rockville Pike from commercial
to residential.
The lots, although originally
zoned residential and currently
being used as such, were mad
vertently changed to commercial

to rectify this error at the re

stances, instead of looking to God,
the Author of all their blessings,
who has promised never to leave or
forsake his children.
In despair Moses cried to God,
"What shall l do unto this peo-
Pile ?" He was told to gather the
chief men of Israel together and
to take the rod with which he had
wrought such great wonders in
Egypt, and to go before the peo-
pie. And the Lord promised Mo-
ses. "Behold, will stand before
thee there, upon the rock in Hor-
eb; and thou shalt smite the rock,
and there shall come water out of
it, that the people may drink"
Moses did what God commanded
him, and the waters gushed forth
from the rock in a mighty living
stream, quenching the thirst of
both man and beast.
Who do you think really per-
formed that miracle? Moses?
No. indeed He merely smote the
rock with his rod. 1t was the
Lord, who by His mighty, wonder
working power caused the water
to burst forth from that rock. We
read in the Bible that God is "the
same yesterday, today, and for
ever" If today He sees fit to
permit some trial to come to you,
do not lose heart, or be tempted
to mistrust God whose infinite
power can change, wonderfully
change the most hopeless, dis
couraging outlook. Remember His
loving care for you in the past,
and His many Exceeding great
and precious promises" recorded in
the Bible, which He has pledged
Himself to fulfill in your behalf.

HELLO BOYS AND GIRLS!
Have you ever been really-truly
thirsty? Then you know how sat
isfying and refreshing pure, cool
water can be. We are told that
one can live a long time in the
desert without food, but only %
hours even with one quart of
water at hand. How thankful we
should daily be for these every
day blessings which we so very
often take for granted. Don't you
think so?
In today's Bible story we
read that the children of Israel
murmured against God when
there was no water at a place
called Rephidim where they had
pitched camp. They should have
trusted in Him and remembered
all His great wonders in their be-
half in the past. But they didn't,
and forgetting their Benefactor,
they demanded OF Moses, Give US
water that we may drink" Pa
tiently Moses answered: "Why
chide We with me? Wherefore do
we tempt the Lord?" But they
replied angrily: Wherefore is this
that thou hast brought us up out
of Egypt, to kill US and our chill
dren and our cattle with thirst ?"
And believe it or not, in their
rage they were almost ready to
stone Moses, who was sacrificing
his very life for them. Do you
know what makes boys and girls,
and grown-ups too, for that
matter, ungrateful, unapprecia-
