Class. “Success in newspaper work must be based on the quality of what you | produce and on the public demand for | that product,” said Mrs. Sallie V. H. Pickett, society editor of The Star, in emphasizing before the class in jour- | nalism at George Washington Univer- sity yesterday afternoon the state- | ment that there is no royal road to achievement in the profession. The importance of getting the thing + for which the writer had been sent, at | _ any cost in time and labor, was em- phasized as the outstanding point that should be impressed upon the student | of journalism, and Mrs. Pickett told of instances in which persistence against | heavy odds had brought unexpected success to members of the profession. Mrs. Pickett advised the students to study their own qualifications and, if possible, to follow the lines of work in ‘which they believed their own inter- ests were involved.
