We ask you to do this, because we are sent items by special cor- respondents and want to know by whom the various items are sent. Here are a few suggestions to correspondents, which, we trust, will be taken in the spirit in which they are written. The greater number of our corre- spondents observe these rules already: Write on one side of the paper only. Leave a blank line between each item. Do not abbreviate the days of the week. Be sure all proper names are spelled correctly, and use the given names or initials wherever possible, for example, instead of saying, Mr. Jones went to town on business Sat- urday, say, William A. Jones, or W. A. Jones. There may be more than one “Jones” jn your vicinity. Where the given name or initials are used do not prefix the ‘“Mr.” If there is anything of great importance that happens in your vicinity and you have al- ready sent in your items for the weekly paper, we will be glad to have you call us up by telephone. midji visitor Saturday.
