SKA CIRCULATION GUARANTEED TO BE LARGER ¥ THAN THAT OF ANY OTHER PUBLICATION. RADIO NOT HURTING NEWSPRINT FACTORIE Newsprint manufacturers have become convinced that the radio is not having any damaging effect on newspaper circulation. That is proved by the fact that there has been a I r than the usual) mption this year receding July 31, annual increase in newsprint coi over last year. During the ye 1929, Canada increased her newsprint production 14 per cent. over the previous year gain of 195,000 tons. In spite of this increased production the newsprint stock on hand July 31, 1929, was less than on July 31, 1928. The stock on hand in 1928 amounted to 48,270 tons and in 1929 to 28993 tons, a decrease of about 20,000 tons. It might be intriguing to those interested the installation of newsprint manufacturing machin- ery that the factories worked far nearer to their -a in capacity the last year than the year before. Good- body and Company, members of the New York Stock Exchange who specialize in Canadian pulp and paper investments, in a recent statement, said: We feel that the newsprint industry will do materially better this year than it did last year, and we think that the newsprint stocks offer at! tive speculative possi- bilities during the next six to nine months. The Goodbody letter pointed out: It seemed at one time as if advertising through the medium of radio broadcasting would seriously affect newspaper advertis- ing, but it is the opinion of those in the advertising field that the two forms of ad- vertising are supplementary rather than competitive. The radio industry itself has increased its newspaper advertising. Fifteen radio companies spent nearly $8,900,000 in advertising during 1928 compared with $4,- 700,000 in 1927. FOREIG Forty years ago the late Joseph Pulitzer created a trust to provide university scholarships to high school graduates in New York. The scholarships are awarded through competitive examination. Of re- cent years a large majority of the scholarships have gone to the sons of immigrants. This year (the fortieth annual contest) the foreigners made their largest victory. There were nine scholarships award- ed. Two of them went to foreign born boys. Six of them were captured by boys both of whose parents were born in foreign countries. The parents of one of the winners were born in America, but his four grandparents were born in Ireland. The boys were of seven different nationalities: Irish (two), Jews (two), Greek, Italian, Spanish, Scottish BOYS WIN. Judges were all old line Americans unless we except itzer, editor of the New York World whose er a Hungarian Jew but mother was a member of an old American family Pulitzer scholars are almost uniformly success- ful in later life. The list of former holders includes Simeon Strunsky, author, critic and editorial writer; | Fred F. French, the builder; Prof. Sapir of the| University - of Toronto; Prof. Zeitlin of the Uni-| versity of Chicago and Maurice Deutsch, once Con- ulting Engineer for the City of New York.

Y., an apple tree is in full blecom; and from this certain worthy people have concluded that the coming winter will be a very mild one, if, indeed, it ever arrives at all. Well possibly so. Yet we do not mind saying that we take a very gloomy view of all such signs, and be- lieve they seldom mean what they appear to mean Last April, it will be recalled, we had some cold days, and the foxes all wore thick fur, and the| geese were not flying northward as numerously as | usual, so that there was a disposition in some quar- ters to conclude that 1929 would be a reptition of 1816, which was the year without a summer. There | no need to point ouf what a bloomer that idea was. If ever there was a year that had more sum- | mer than this year had, one is at a loss to think which year it could have been. So if there is any conclusion to be drawn from this apple tree, we | imagine it is that the Yale-Harvard game will be played with sleet, rain and snow all falling simul- | taneously; that we shall have a Thanksgiving with- | out turkey, on acount of all the birds being frozen | to death, and that by the time Christmas comes | the East River will be completely frozen over, with iceboats running races under all five bridges.

(Janet Rankin Aiken, in the Bookman.) English has twenty-six alphabet letters, twenty- one for consonants and five for vowels. English has some forty-four sounds, twenty-four ronson-} antal and twenty vocalic. To represent these forty-| four sounds in spelling English has well over 400$ separate orthographic combinations, making an av-| erage of ten possible spellings per sound. What can | you do with a language like that? And yet there is a charm about it. Premier MacDonald and President Hoover will and Lithuanian.
